Abstract
The ATM technology offers the possibility to develop a broadband infrastructure (B-ISDN) which can be conveniently used for the delivery of multimedia services to the customer premises. Key points in exploiting the intrinsic flexibility of ATM are the provision of an adequate signalling system, by which users are assigned on-demand connections, and of a well designed infrastructure for service control, which helps in adding new services at a low cost. This paper deals with the approach considered in the ACTS-INSIGNIA project about the topic of integrating B-ISDN signalling with IN features. An overview of the INSIGNIA project can be found in [ProjDesc].
