Abstract

An approach to handling packet-based data communication sessions between users and one or more data services is used for creating, provisioning, and using the data services to monitor and control packet-based data sessions between mobile terminals in a wireless telephone network and service providers accessible to those mobile terminals over a data network, for example over the Internet. For any particular mobile terminal, multiple service interactions, which may overlap in time, can be handled during a period of time during which the mobile terminal maintains data communication with the system. In one aspect the approach features a provisioning a service on the node, which includes configuring a detection point for the service. The node processes communication. This processing includes monitoring the communication to identify matches to the configured detection point. On identifying a match to the configured detection point, service logic for the service is notified of the detection point.
