Feature:     Support of Presence capability

"Presence" is the concept whereby users make themselves "visible" or "invisible" to other parties of their choice, allowing services to be offered. The concept of presence will enable other multimedia services to exploit this key enabler to support other advanced multimedia services.  Examples of multimedia services that could potentially exploit the presence capability include "chat", e-mail, multimedia messaging, instant messaging, etc.

The objectives of this work item are to define and develop the support of the concept of presence information to facilitate multimedia services in a wireless network.

Work to be led by S1.
