Real-Time SDP Personalization in a Multi-Device Environment

Abstract

The creation of new service revenue streams supported by consistent user experiences is one of the topics for the future service layer. Personalization over real-time decision enablement is one important option to explore for new business models. The paper introduces a novel personalization communication control mechanism across services, devices and platforms realizing realtime decision enablement for an IMS-based SDP environment, accompanied with marketing, standards and detailed technology studies.

Policy-Based Real-Time Decision-Making for Personalized Service Delivery

“…The general architecture of the PCC [1] is illustrated in Fig. 2 Our prototype implementation of the PCC is based on the JAIN SLEE framework [14], which ensures a certain scalability.…”

“…II. EXAMPLE SCENARIO As an example scenario for personalization using real-time decision-making, we reuse the one from [1], where Alice, our example user, receives an important phone call while she is watching a streamed video.…”

“…Earlier [1], [2], we introduced a network component called Personalized Communication Controller (PCC), which allows for service-unspecific personalization of service delivery through dynamic resolution of capability interaction for device capabilities, user preferences and service capabilities. The PCC dynamically decides which devices to use for interactive sessions and is also capable of modifying running sessions (e.g.…”

Personalization-Based Optimization of Real-time Service Delivery in a Multi-Device Environment

“…Aiming for an optimization of real-time communication in multi-device and multi-session scenarios, we have proposed [6] a Personalized Communication Controller (PCC), which allows for service invocation and session modification [14], which has never been specified in detail. The PCC is controlled by a policy engine which makes decisions about how to handle communication events based on flexible user-and/or operatordefined policies.…”

“…We have already proposed a mechanism for SDP-based personalization and optimization of communication paths in multiple device environments [6]. This user-centric approach allows for network-based, service-unspecific and dynamic personalization and is especially targeting capability interaction resolution in the user's personalized service delivery space.…”
