Implementing innovative services supporting user and terminal mobility: the SCARAB architecture
The paper shows how secure telecommunication services supporting user and terminal mobility and service personalization can be designed using the SCARAB architecture, developed within the EU ACTS SCARAB project. The most important aspects of this architecture are the combined use of smart cards and mobile code technologies to solve the mobility and personalization issues, and the ability to support different types of terminals, ranging from powerful PC terminals to mobile personal digital assistants. These features are illustrated through the design of a demonstrative service.
