A Framework of Community Management with Object Deputy Mechanism for IP Multimedia Subsystem
Akio Yamamoto, Yasuhiro Araki, Michael Sweeney · 2008
This paper presents an approach to the problem of community data management in the IP multimedia subsystem (IMS) environment. More specifically, it describes a framework of the community management with the use of object deputy data model, which is developed as a key component of the enhanced platform for IMS to provide group-centric, media-rich interactive services. Furthermore, on the basis of data management paradigm over hybrid peer-to-peer (P2P) network combined with the IMS architecture, we consider binding a database capability for the community management with each super-peer on the network. In addition, we introduce the concept of "public community identity" to identify each community on the IMS network and route a SIP request addressed to a specific community based on a set of filter criteria included in the user/service profile.
