摘要:
Methods and devices for controlling a charging of a composite service in a telecommunications network are described. The composite service comprises an invocation of a constituent service. The telecommunications network comprises a control node for controlling the composite service, a service node for providing the constituent service, and a charging system for performing the charging. The method comprises the steps of receiving from the service node a first usage report comprising charging indicators related to the invocation of the constituent service, receiving from the control node control information related to the composite service, the control information indicating that the invocation of the constituent service is associated to the invocation of the composite service, generating a further usage report by changing the charging indicators according to the control information, and sending the further usage report to the charging system to instruct the charging system to perform the charging according to the further usage report.

摘要:
An apparatus for creating composite services includes a processing unit which identifies at least one constituent component for a composite service by a processor unit. The constituent component has a runtime state. The apparatus includes a data-store having past composition decisions and corresponding runtime states. The processing unit locates a past composition decision regarding the constituent component that has essentially the equivalent runtime state in the data-store, and reuses the past composition decision for the constituent component for the composite service. A method for creating composite services includes the steps of identifying at least one constituent component for a composite service by a processor unit, the constituent component having a runtime state. There is the step of locating a past composition decision regarding the constituent component that has essentially the equivalent runtime state in a data-store by the processing unit. There is the step of reusing the past composition decision for the constituent component for the composite service by the processor unit.
摘要:
The invention refers to a method of correlating a plurality of service instances by a service composition entity, wherein the services are performed by one or a plurality of servers of a telecommunications network. Thereto, the service composition entity performs the steps of invoking a composite service instance corresponding to the service request, and generating a composite service identifier identifying this composite service instance, contacting the one or a plurality of application servers for invoking the plurality of component service instances, wherein the plurality of component service instances are associated to the composite service instance, and sending a first service report comprising an information about the composite service instance to a service supervision system, wherein this information enables the service supervision system to identify reports about the component service instances as being associated to the composite service instance. The invention further proposes a service composition entity for correlating the plurality of service instances, and a service supervision system for monitoring, supervising or controlling the composite service instance.
摘要:
A method is described for invoking a constituent service in a telecommunication network. The constituent service is associated to a composite service. A first group of parameters is determined which is associated with the composite service. A second group of parameters is determined which is associated with the constituent service. The first and the second group of parameters are compared. If there are matching parameters (212) in the first and the second group requirements are determined for the constituent service based on the matching parameters in the first and the second group. The constituent service (216) is invoked according to these requirements. An application server is also described.

摘要:
It is described a concept for a service composition which can be carried out in a telecommunication network (100). The described service composition is optimized in view of a composite service execution in a mobile network device (110) having limited resources. According to the described concept, at least one code required for executing the composite service is downloaded from a code storage node (130) to a composition execution agent (112) in response to receiving a corresponding instruction from a service composition node (120), that the service should be composed and/or executed. The actual code to be executed within the network device (110) is selected in response to receiving a service composition command from the service composition node (120). The code selection may take into account local constraints available for the network device (110).

A first group of parameters is determined which is associated with the composite service. A second group of parameters is determined which is associated with the constituent service. The first and the second group of parameters are compared. If there are matching parameters (212) in the first and the second group requirements are determined for the constituent service based on the matching parameters in the first and the second group. The constituent service (216) is invoked according to these requirements. An application server is also described.
