Abstract
In this paper, we propose the concept of middleMEN (middleman for Multimedia service Environment) to provide an infrastructure for building multimedia service interworking platforms that support interactive multimedia applications in distributed heterogeneous network environments. We describe the main techniques developed to achieve the service interworking, and also the functional architecture of middleMEN in heterogeneous ATM network environments.
