Abstract
The service system which is built on a distributed processing environment (DPE) is becoming one of the most promising techniques for the flexible and rapid introduction of services. We propose a service networking architecture suitable for VoD services based on the TINA compliant model. The applications in this architecture are deployed as units of software managers. Each manager provides a layered view for the effective management and control of the multimedia network resources and services according to the concept of TMN and TINA. For the purpose of flexible service provision to users and effective service introduction by service providers, this architecture proposes the adoption of ad hoc service managers such as a video on demand (VoD) manager and a protocol for transactions between those. This paper also proposes a reference scenario for interworking of the TINA-like model with the WWW environment. The proposed architecture is implemented on a DPE platform that provides various transparencies.
