TINA service architecture and its application

摘要

This paper describes the TINA service architecture (TINA-SA) that has been defined for rapid devel- opment and deployment of a wide variety of services, such as multimedia conferencing, information distri- bution, and on-line subscription, in a multi-provider environment where service providers cooperate and/or compete with each other due to deregulation in the telecommunication market. As an architecture for such an environment, TINA-SA has been designed to support interoperability as well as mobility.
