Virtual Home Environment for Multimedia Services in 3rd Generation Networks

چکیده
The Virtual Home Environment (VHE) has been introduced as an abstract concept enabling users to access and personalize their subscribed services whatever the terminal they use and whatever the underlying network used. The European IST VESPER project (Virtual Home Environment for Service Personalization and Roaming Users) aims to provide an architectural solution and an implementation of the VHE, providing ubiquitous service availability, personalised user interfaces and session mobility, while users are roaming or changing their equipment. In this paper we present a multimedia delivery service, one of the trial services selected to demonstrate VHE features, showing its interconnection with the so far defined VESPER VHE architecture.
