Abstract :
With the explosion in mobile telecommunications and increasing competition, mobile telephone service providers and vehicle makers are looking to develop new types of services for vehicle users. So far the services have included information about traffic conditions and support in case of breakdowns. In future digital broadcast and third generation telecommunication systems will be used to deliver interactive multimedia services into the vehicle. This paper looks at platform requirements for supporting the delivery of the new multimedia services. It considers the role of operating systems and networks in determining the flexibility and costs of the system
