23、 or logical service network which possesses a number of specific functions, lies on top of and utilizes existing transport networks and provides support for various types of services beyond those normally offered by the transport network. SONs are designed to provide and dynamically utilize applicat

24、ion features in accordance with users demands. The application features are provided via the use of a composition function, which can be used to develop user service capabilities in SONs in response to users needs.

The ANI offers capabilities and resources needed for realization of applications. 3.1.3 functional architecture ITU-T Y.2012: A set of functional entities and the reference points between them used to describe the structure of an NGN. These functional entities are separated by reference points,

29、and thus, they define the distribution of functions. 3.1.4 mobility b-ITU-T Q.1706: The ability for the user or other mobile entities to communicate and access services irrespective of changes of the location or technical environment. 3.1.5 multicast b-ITU-T X.603: A data delivery scheme where the s

SONs can be thought of as being connected log

Additionally, SONs, which use the NGN, support composition functions that are used to provide customer-oriented service features and their associated applications. With the rapid advancement of computing technology, it is possible to aggregate informati
