Abstract
Several experts in Telecom Finland presently believe that in ten years time most voice telephony will be mobile and fixed network would be mostly based on multimedia services (hypertext, stereo, video, digital television and virtual reality). To support a wide range of mobile and multimedia services in a future B-ISDN network the distribution of service control functions between the terminals, servers and the network nodes is a major question. To satisfy broadband mobile and multimedia service needs the networks should support much more distributed operations. In this paper the control functions are analyzed from the service value point of view. The change of value distribution of services is presented and the location of corresponding control functions is discussed.
