IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) [1] specified originally by 3GPP to support IP multimedia services for mobile users, has become the foundation for future wireless and wireline convergence. IMS aims at allowing service providers to easily deploy rich IP-based multimedia services. However, to deploy a new IMS-based service, both the network and the terminal need to evolve to implement the associated service logic, which makes difficult for the service providers to offer new services as this requires the user equipment (UE) to evolve to be compatible with this service. In this paper, we address this compatibility issue resorting on two approaches: IMS application download and usage of HTML5/WebSocket technology.

This work examines the phenomenon of the generic app store as a "foe", i.e. detrimental to Telcos' business, versus the role of a "friend", i.e. a valuable tool to compete in the emerging Telecom/Web landscape. Some successful app stores are run by device manufacturers and device OS vendors, and some Telcos are seeing a modest success too. The paper suggests that there is much more to gain from a Telco app store where apps enhance communications. The App Stores is a "friend" because it educates users to demand rich voice and - most importantly, to pay for apps, albeit small fees. It legitimizes the notion of a "disposable app", allowing Telcos to deliver "perpetual Beta" and get away with no user support. The plethora of popular Data apps through the app stores has marginalized Voice, but there is still great scope for related apps that "augment" reality. With IMS, Telco can differentiate app stores by offering multi-terminal, Fixed and Mobile synchronization facilities. Most of all, app stores are becoming the decisive factor in users choosing a network and a key interface to them that Telcos cannot afford to lose.

We describe a novel method for over-the-air automated authentication and verification of machine-to-machine (M2M) wireless sensor networks using the existing authentication assets of a cellular telecom operator. We extend the standard Generic Bootstrapping Architecture (GBA) provided in the 3GPP specifications to implement our solution with minimal additional hardware and software requirements.

Mobile communication has been dominated by vertically integrated service provision in an ‘operator centric model’, which has been highly bound to voice and SMS services and organized in a monopolistic competition between few Mobile network operators, MVNOs and SPs. In the recent years we have witnessed a radical change driven by the introduction and further development of smartphones, where we see emergence of new business models, including ‘device centric models’, where the user can get access to new applications and services by connecting to the device manufacturers' app stores and the like. One of the main drivers of this change is the advanced capabilities of the smartphones enabling the mobile devices to reap the advantages of the convergence process and bring advanced internet applications and services to the mobile devices. However, the device market is dominated by a number of different technological platforms, including different Operating Systems (OS) and ‘software development platforms’, resulting in a variety of different competing solutions on the market driven by different actors. The aim of this paper is to give a comparative analysis of these technological platforms and identify their strengths and weaknesses seen from user and market perspective.

We discuss the creation and evaluation of an IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) based smartphone service that originally started as a web-only application. By using a simple policy framework, additional IMS-based services such as user registration, subscription, authentication and authorization are orchestrated with the web-based application via a general OMA-based service framework. This service plane further inter-works with lower layer IMS-based network control plane functions to provide network admission control and QoS control for users on EPON access network and mobile networks. The end result is that the original web-based application is now part of the converged network IP video service. Through this experiment, we have demonstrated the technical feasibility of using an OMA prescribed policy-based framework for combining web-based and IMS-based services. In particular, we have successfully carried out mobile-based service invocation and orchestration, and investigated the usage of the service plane functions in service provisioning over a heterogeneous network environment.

This paper introduces a novel network-based approach to inter-destination media synchronization. The approach meets the need for synchronization in advanced TV concepts like social TV and offers high scalability, unlike conventional end-point based approaches. The solution for inter-destination media synchronization has been standardized in upcoming ETSI protocol standards for IPTV. This paper explains the inner workings of this standardized solution.

Analyzing business models of service platforms and calculating their financial estimates is a complex task, depending heavily on the quality of the input data. This paper is assessing whether the techno-business analysis [1–3], scenario and driver-based modeling techniques and real option models can be intuitively combined, for use in business analyses and management of service platforms. This paper provides: (1) a theoretical analysis of available scenario techniques and their application in investment analysis, (2) a unified framework, combining real option analysis modeling techniques with techno-business-analysis and scenario techniques, (3) a verification of the framework on a practical case - a service platform for cross-domain services.

An overload of content choices on the TV and online is a modern phenomenon. Steering viewers towards content they would like is a challenge for any video-on-demand provider - especially for those who derive revenue from downloaded content. Making the user experience in selecting recommendations engaging and easy is also a challenge. This paper covers research into testing the presentation of recommended items to viewers in a variety of ways to establish best and worst features, and to inform user interface design decisions of future IPTV recommendations services.

The programmable network envisioned in the late 1990s within standardization and research for the Intelligent Network is taking another attempt to come into reality using IP-based Next Generation Networks (NGN) and Application Programming Interfaces (API) for open developer access. Adopting technical concepts of providing high-level APIs for open service access from the Internet and World Wide Web (WWW), some major telecommunications operators have started developer portals to allow 3rd party developer access to internal service enablers and network functionality. Composition of services by using these exposed APIs may be realized on multiple layers. We address in this report the composition of services based on orchestration languages and assess those in the context of the execution of real-time communication services. We propose a two-folded composition model for component and workflow driven compositions.
