Abstract
Automated processes in distributed communication environments require tools for unifying heterogeneous multimedia services. The Teleservice Descriptor is introduced for generic handling and integration of traditional and innovative forms of communication. The Intelligent Resource Selector applies this descriptor for dynamic selection of communication end points and combination of necessary converters for service interworking. The Intelligent Personal Communication Support System provides the test-bed for the implementation of the developed algorithms, applicable in CPE, TINA and IN solutions.
