Abstract :
Within the RACE EuroBridge project efforts are underway to provide a toolkit and a unified system architecture to support designers and providers of advanced multimedia network services. The approaches taken to service specification by the Intelligent Network (IN) community and the RACE Open Services Architecture (ROSA) project are examined. The applicability of these techniques to the specification and design of multimedia services to be hosted on the EuroBridge Service Platform is investigated, and the ROSA approach is applied to a simple video-conference specification. The authors outline how it can result in a complete design that can be implemented on the EuroBridge Service Platform
