“…Gbaguidi et al [12], [13] describe a platform for what they term as hybrid services; i.e., services that span the PSTN and Internet. However, the proposed hybrid service architecture is well suited for interactive forms of communications that require two or more end users at the same time.…”

“…Their interaction with the PSTN is limited to the use of a telephony gateway; thus they do not consider the BCSM of PSTN as a service stimulus. Like Gbaguidi et al [12], [13], their architecture is well suited for services that require interactive communications. Furthermore, they claim that the dependency of a call model as a trigger for services make it difficult to integrate other Internet-based applications such as instant messaging and presence.…”

Abstract-We propose a general purpose service architecture for realizing services which start in the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) but terminate and execute on the Internet. We discuss the needs for such services, our early research efforts in this direction which lead to prototyping certain benchmark services, and the current state of work in this area. We demonstrate the feasibility of the architecture by focusing on services which involve wireline PSTN as well as the wireless aspects (2 G, 2.5 G) of the PSTN. Our methodology is attractive since it keeps each of the domains (PSTN and Internet) unaware as to where the service is executing with respect to which domain actually requested the service. Individual entities participating in the service do not have any knowledge that external entities from another domain also contributed in the execution and fulfillment of such services. Our approach, as embodied in the service architecture, is to leverage the best of the Internet protocols (SIP, XML, HTTP) and technologies (instant messaging, presence) to provide a general framework for personalized service specification and execution.

Abstract-In the ICEBERG project at U. C. Berkeley, we are developing an Internet-based integration of telephony and data services spanning diverse access networks. Our primary goals are extensibility, scalability, robustness and personalized communication. We leverage the Internet's low cost of entry for service creation, provision, deployment, and integration. In this article, we present our solutions to signaling, easy service creation, resource reservation, admission control, billing and security in the ICEBERG network architecture.

“…Presumably, an approach similar to the Intelligent Network, but more open and flexible is needed for hybrid service management. A Java-based approach has already been proposed for this purpose [6].…”
