ABOUT PSTT 2009
The universal accessibility and usability of content, services and
resources has
always been a major challenge for services providers, networks
administrators
and in standards specifications. This universality means to be able to
access
and use a specific service "anywhere, anyhow, anytime" with the best
possible
quality of service and the best satisfaction of the end user. If this
universality was a paradigm in the past, today with emerging standards and
advanced technologies some works start to experiment and test the universal
access at least for some kind of services and users community.
The IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) is one of the good applicative
frameworks for
pervasive services as it is considered to be a common platform for
providing a
unified session control on top of heterogeneous access network
technologies for
flexible multimedia services. IMS adopts the notion of Next Generation
Networks
and fixed mobile convergence by merging the fixed and mobile
telecommunication
networks with the IP technologies within telecom domains. Pervasive
computing
and networking techniques could be applied at different levels in the IMS
architecture: proxies, network, application servers (AS), etc.
The aim of the International Workshop on Pervasive Services and
Technologies for
Telecommunications (PSTT) is to present advances in computing and
networking
technologies toward new systems and techniques for providing pervasive,
ubiquitous, self organized and continuous services and toward new
approaches and
environments that can be qualified as ambient, context-aware, and that
consider
the human activities, environments and satisfaction in using a provided
services.
