Abstract
A multimedia service architecture is constructed by using a generic component model. In order to derive specific components, a generic service agent and generic service component architecture are developed. Using generic agent and the service components, a TINA-C conformant object-oriented hierarchical generic service component is developed and presented. As an example, a multimedia QoS service and management architecture is presented.
