Working Group 2 - “Service Architectures for the Wireless World”
The Service Architecture Working Group (WG2) is a working group within
the Wireless World Research Forum (WWRF). The working group exists to
gather inputs and views from industry and academia, to synthesise these
views, to influence future visions and research priorities, and to
share results across the forum.
Since September 2001, the Working Group 2 has worked in the area of
service architectures and service platforms for future wireless
systems. The WG2 focuses on the user as the driving force in future
communication systems following the approach of WWRF WG1 (Human
Perspective). Based on a ubiquitously connected world, WG2 investigates
how the user can be provided by future systems with an I-centric
service environment. The services addressed by WG2 are settled on top
of an all-IP environment, addressing the fulfillment of any user demand.
The vision of I-centric communications has been developed to put the
individual (“I”) user in the center of all activities a communication
system performs. WG2 aims for communication systems, which in the
future are able to model each individual, his preferences, and adapt to
different situations and resources in time. The developed Reference
Model for I-centric communications addresses the individual user,
interacting with the objects of their personal communication space.
The reference model for I-centric communications follows a top-down
approach starting with the introduction of individual communication
spaces and services. It is common understanding that Icentric services
have to support ambient-awareness, personalization, and adaptability.
WG2 investigates how future service architectures can provide these
features supporting all involved parties of the business chain.
