Abstract

Service session mobility is a new concept in the next telecom service generation. It allows users to move from one terminal in one network to another terminal in another network with service continuity. This concept requires migrating the current service execution related information, including service context, service data, etc, from one terminal to another. For services that execute within transactions, transaction context is a part of service context and must be migrated too. This paper presents our work on this problem, based on CORBA Object Transaction Service. Mobile agent is the enabling technology, which enhances the transaction service with mobility features.This model was initially designed for VHE architecture of VESPER, a European project to design a model for Virtual Home Environment in the next generation of telecom network. However, it can be applied to any other architecture, which require to solve the problem of service session mobility with transaction.
