Abstract
A method and apparatus of providing service mobility among user equipments capable of providing continuity of service context are provided. When a movement request signal for requesting a movement of a first service being executed in the first terminal from the first terminal to a second terminal is received, service data with respect to the first service and a associating service are transmitted to the second terminal.
Claims13
A method of providing service mobility among user equipments to provide continuity of service context, performed by a service continuity control server, the method comprising:
- receiving continuity support service information from a first terminal;
- receiving a movement request signal for requesting a movement of a first service being executed in the first terminal from the first terminal to a second terminal;
- and
- transmitting service data with respect to the first service and second service to the second terminal,
- wherein the continuity support service information includes information regarding correlation between the first and second services, and the second service is a service which was executed in the first terminal in relation to the first service.
A method for providing service mobility performed by a terminal, the method comprising:
- obtaining information regarding a participant of a first network service being executed in a terminal;
- determining whether or not the participant of the first network service is participating a second network service;
- generating correlation information indicating an association between the first network service and the second network service when the participant of the first network service is participating the second network service;
- determining whether or not there is a local service associated with the first network service;
- and
- storing service data with respect to the second network service and the local service associated with the first network service.
A service continuity control server providing continuity of service context, the server comprising:
- a service movement controller configured to receive a movement request signal for requesting a movement of a first service being executed in a first terminal from the first terminal to a second terminal;
- and
- a service data continuity controller configured to receive continuity support service information from the first terminal and transmitting service data with respect to the first service and second service to the second terminal,
- wherein the continuity support service information includes information regarding correlation between the first service and the second service, and the second service is a service which was executed in the first terminal in relation to the first service.
A terminal comprising:
- a service state management module configured to obtain information regarding a participant of a first network service being executed in the terminal, determine whether or not the participant of the first network service is participating in a second network service being executed in the terminal to generate correlation information between the first network service and the second network service, and determine whether or not there is a local service connected to the first network service to generate correlation information between the first network service and the local service;
- and
- a service data management module configured to store service data with respect to the first network service and service data with respect to the second network service associated with the first network service and the local service.
