2nd meeting of the SMONET members at 16th November 2001

Discussion points were:

• Progress of the work of D01
• Progress of the work of D02
• Activities from the partners
• Workpackage 03

The progress of the work of D01 is sufficient. The deliverable in version 3 is available since 16.11.01. CGEY sent the first proposal for D01 to give an impression about the work of WP02 for all partners, and to let the project progress to WP03. DECOIT will structure the document, gives comments about signalled open points and maybe take some parts into D02. CGEY mentioned that billing on NGN should be one integral part of this deliverable, but - with the feelings of Sathya Rao - to continue with this version to WP03, perhaps it could be better split up to another separate NGNI project. The billing issue should be discussed with the whole NGNI members; also the requirements for delivery of content of one topic in different formats (depending the used infrastructure and terminal) or/and different content of the same topic, without different bills. The last version should be available at the end of November.

The progress of the work of D02 is sufficient too. Work on state-of-the-art is going on. Additionally the work on evaluation of mobile services. The next version will send to the ftp server during the next week. The last version should be ready at the end of November.

The activities from the partners can be devided into DECOIT and CGEY, because that are the main worker for WP02:

1. DECOIT
• further discussion with the University of Bremen, but no new information
• thinking/working on business models for new services
• working on different service categories
• working on technology update
• working on state-of-the-art technologies
• will send the next version of the D01 and D02 at the mid of next week with new structure and the last input for discussion
2. CGEY
• assessment of the questionnaires
• further discussion of new services topics with standardisation bodies
• will further improve the delivered text for D01/D02
• further discussing about the technology overview
• will discuss a handheld evolution overview from the research at his university for an input for the appendix of the deliverables
• will write down the experience with the conversion from 3G to 4G/NGN to become a separate (own) publication

The work package 03 can start simultaneously, because the structure and the information of WP02 are available. The partners for WP03 are DECOIT, EMORPHIA, and BIBA. They should start the work and must be available at the next telephone conference!
