Abstract

As one of the NGN architectures, IMS acts as a session middleware to offer the service session, which enables the operator to deliver the IMS-based Next Generation Services. But can the IMS architecture keep the promise of a quick TTM and with an acceptable ROI? In this paper, we focus on the service architecture in a service composition vision to respond the NGN requirements, making the convergence and all types of mobility possible. An NGN Middleware is proposed to compose, optimally select and invoke the service components (SEs). The proposition of a QoS Routing table of services and the new SIP protocol (SIP+) permits the End to End service session to be dynamic. An enhanced IMS addresses also an enhanced HSS to have the complete information as user preferences, user terminals and network subscription. This paper will detail these propositions through several scenarios.
