Abstract

This article presents our prototypical implementation of enabling services for context-aware real-time charging and billing based on the international Parlay X standard. The work is part of an open SOA platform allowing easy third-party composition of context- aware mobile services. The article illustrates why and how the standardized Parlay X Web Service interfaces had to be extended to cope with the demands of the considered open SOA platform.
