“…More specifically, a variety of scenarios were considered involving the support of session management requirements (session establishment, modification, suspension, resumption, and shutdown), interaction requirements (audio / video, text, and file communication), and collaboration support requirements (chat facility, file exchange facility, and voting). Considering all the artifacts produced in the service design phase, the MMCS-ET was implemented using Microsoft's Visual C++ together with Microsoft's Distributed Component Object Model (DCOM) (Adamopoulos, 2002) (appropriately extended with a high-level API in order to support continuous media interactions) as a distributed object-oriented environment.…”

The advent of deregulation combined with new opportunities opened by advances in telecommunications technologies has significantly changed the paradigm of telecommunications services, leading to a dramatic increase in the number and type of services that telecommunication companies can offer. Building new advanced multimedia telecommunications services in a distributed and heterogeneous environment is very difficult, unless there is a methodology to support the entire service development process in a structured and systematic manner, and assist and constrain service designers and developers by setting out goals and providing specific means to achieve these goals. Therefore, in this paper, after a brief presentation of a proposed service creation methodology, its service design phase is examined in detail focusing on the essential activities and artifacts. In this process, the exploitation of important service engineering techniques and UML modelling principles is especially considered. Finally, alternative and complementary approaches for service design are highlighted and a validation attempt is briefly outlined.
