Practical case: Open service platform: PATS To create a network of excellence on advanced convergent services and fast service development, established as a mutually beneficial collaboration between partners from industry, university and telecom-operators • University • NTNU network of excellence • Industry • Ericsson • Compaq • Operator • Telenor FoU • Telenor Mobile a a
PATS - Main goals • Support advanced convergent services: mobility, personalization, context awareness, multimedia • Allow services to be modelled separatly and composed incrementally to form gradually more complex suites of well interated services • Make service engineering so simple and fast that students and others may develop new services
