Abstract :
Radio multimedia services are constantly evolving. Service providers and operators must follow this evolution to address customers´ expectations. With customers´ changeable behaviors, a platform must review its architecture and adapt itself to reduce time-to-market of new services and satisfy all demands. In this context, solutions are about auto-adaptation and reconfiguration. These two operations should take place dynamically and rapidly, with no damage to platform functions. They also have to fulfill other features such as security, real time applications, error tolerance, etc. Our aim is to give an architecture which can support the reconfiguration process. We also expose some situations and scenarios to prove that bad situations (low throughput, call drop, bad QoS, etc.) are improved with reconfiguration.
