Summary on Grant Application Form
Apart from management and dissemination activities, the following technical tasks will be done:Service Specifications - to determine the technical specifications of building-block solutions to the problems of management and control of service access, taking account of requests for content, charging for it at the points of consumption, and related security requirements.Gateways and interfaces - to implement these solutions, validating and demonstrating integration of internal and external networks and the signalling and content transmission mechanisms across the boundaries.On-demand? - to investigate the likely use of the solutions in a medium-scale trial, whereby a consumer will be able to select the quality of programme material taking account of willingness to pay, affordable cost and receiver equipment capability.The trial configuration will be built incrementally, starting with private laboratory networks executing experimental scenarios and extending gradually to wide-area channels (SDH/ATM or dark fibre), consistent with the ultimate extension into the residential domain.
