Impact of Internet, CORBA, TINA and Mobile Agent Technologies
Thomas Magedanz · 1999
The main concern of this tutorial is the evolution of the Intelligent Network (IN) which is in principle designed as an evolvable telecommunications middleware solution. After a brief review of the IN principles, this tutorial looks at the main impacts on IN evolution derived from new bearer network environments / application domains (e.g., Voice over IP networks) and emerging middleware technologies (i.e., distributed object technologies and mobile agent technologies).
