GigaPort-Applications Focus on services and application protocols for collaboration transaction multi media execution management
Development of services Needed: high level services, in our language and procedures.
….and application protocols Which ICT components to use as building brick? And, how?
Application protocols • Collaboration: • conference management • conference enabling, medium management. • Transactions: • logging • transaction management • payments, coding. • Multi media: • searching, protection, delivery • manipulation, • accounting & billing, etc, etc.
GigaPort-Applications Projects (65 fte). • Research, generic building bricks for: • Collaborative services • Multimedia management • Transactions (accounting, billing,paying) • Middleware (mobile platforms, etc.) Technology push, funded by GigaPort • Pilot projects • Video over IP (IBM, NOB, SURFnet) • Online services platform (Lucent, KPN) • Mobile Quality-of-Service (Ericsson, KPN) • Teleconsulting (AZR, Lucent, Siemens, Applicare, etc.) • Multimedia management platform(KPN, content providers) • B2B over IP(CMG, PCR, ABN-AMRO, ECT) Market pull, funded by industry
