11. Practical case: Open service platform: PATS To create a network of excellence on advanced convergent services and fast service development, established as a mutually beneficial collaboration between partners from industry, university and telecom-operators University NTNU Operator Telenor FoU Telenor Mobile Industry Ericsson Compaq network of excellence aa

12. PATS - Main goals 1.Support advanced convergent services: mobility, personalization, context awareness, multimedia 2.Allow services to be modelled separatly and composed incrementally to form gradually more complex suites of well interated services 3.Make service engineering so simple and fast that students and others may develop new services
