Abstract
In this paper, extensions to the Telecommunications Information Networking Architecture (TINA) derived from personal mobility requirements are presented. The paper reflects the vision of the EC/ACTS research project DOLMEN that is developing OSAM, an Open Service Architecture for fixed and Mobile environments. The paper takes into account requirements to support personal mobility in a multi-provider environment, as well as requirements to distinguish user information from terminal information according to the basic principle that, in a personal mobility support environment, a user can dynamically be associated to different terminals for different services. According to these requirements, an enhanced TINA Business Model, and the impact on and extensions to the computational model of the TINA Service Architecture are elaborated.
