Abstract
The telecommunications market is witnessing an exponential growth. Deregulation has set the stage for an open and multiple-sided arena of vendors, network operators and service providers. Classical telephony has gained a new momentum through the Intelligent Network initiative. The popularity of internet based communications and of mobile systems has brought new business opportunities. There is, nevertheless, a ransom for the success of telecommunications systems: they are also growing in complexity, the management of which is a challenging issue that must be addressed. Service interaction is one manifestation of this complexity.
