Abstract
The provision of broadband multimedia services to residential users belonging to the last network mile is one of the most interesting technological challenges of this end of millennium. Some current R&D topics concerning this technological field (e.g. IV and V CEC Framework Programmes) are focusing their attention on the provision of services involving social benefits in terms of increased quality of the life for citizens residing in local communities (e.g. towns and municipalities).
