Abstract

While group communication system have been proposedfor some time, they are still not used much in actual systems.We believe that one reason for this is the lack of standardisationof group communication system interfaces. Thepaper proposes an architecture, using the standard decompositioninto services, were services are based on standardinterfaces: both interactions between services and interactionswith the application use existing, open standards. Adecomposition of the group communication into services ispresented, along with a description of applicable standards.As an example, a group membership service based on theLDAP standard is discussed.
