Interworking Architecture for Seamless Service Utilization between the TINA-based Public Network and the Internet

摘要

In this paper, we assume that there will be two networks as the future information network infrastructure, the next-generation public network and the Internet, and propose the inter- working architecture that allows users to utilize services deployed on each network seamlessly from both network environments. In a public network environment, our proposed architecture is constructed based on TINA, and consists of various service components that are softwares applied on the open distributed processing environment. We have introduced the IWU as a gateway at the boundary between these network environments, because the Internet does not have the distributed processing environment. We also proposed/constructed a platform, named PLUS-TINA, especially for making use of the TINA-based public network's services, from any Internet environment. The user on the Internet environment is able to make access to the Dublic network's services using the PLUS-TINA via the IWU.
