Intelligent service mediation for supporting advanced location and mobility-aware service provisioning in reconfigurable mobile networks

摘要

Service differentiation, customization, and personalization in the market of 3G mobile services and applications has caused many standards groups, telecommunication companies, and institutions to introduce advanced frameworks and architectures for the support of flexible service provisioning. An important feature in such architectures is location information management, which is a key aspect in future mobile systems and networks, enabling new approaches to service provisioning, customization, and personalization. We present our proposal for a generic open flexible service provisioning architecture that supports location-aware service provisioning and management.
