4 Detailed service description
Currently, in order to programmatically receive and send Multimedia Messages, it is necessary to write applications
using specific protocols to access MMS functions provided by network elements (e.g. MMS-C). This approach requires
application developers to have a high degree of network expertise.
This contribution defines a Multimedia Messaging Web Service that can map to SMS, EMS, MMS, IM, E-mail, etc.
The choice is between defining one set of interfaces per messaging network or a single set common to all networks;
e.g. we could define sendMMS, sendEMS, sendSMS, etc., or just use sendMessage. Although the more specific the API
the easier it is to use, there are advantages to a single set of network-neutral APIs. These advantages include:
• improved service portability;
• lower complexity, by providing support for generic user terminal capabilities only.
For this version of the Parlay X 3 specification, we provide sets of interfaces for two messaging Web Services:
Short Messaging (part 4) and Multimedia Messaging (the present document), which provides generic messaging
features (including SMS).
Multimedia Messaging provides operations (see clause 8.1, SendMessage API) for sending a Multimedia message to
the network and a polling mechanism for monitoring the delivery status of a sent Multimedia message. It also provides
an asynchronous notification mechanism for delivery status (see clause 8.3, MessageNotification API). In addition, a
mechanism is provided to start and stop the notification of delivery receipts (see clause 8.4,
MessageNotificationManager API).
ETSI

---------------------- Page: 8 ----------------------
9 Final draft ETSI ES 202 504-5 V1.1.1 (2008-02)
Multimedia Messaging also allows an application to receive Multimedia messages. Both a polling (see clause 8.2,
ReceiveMessage API) and an asynchronous notification mechanism (see clause 8.3, MessageNotification API and
clause 8.4, MessageNotificationManager API) are available.
Figure 1 shows an example scenario using sendMessage and getMessageDeliveryStatus to send data to subscribers
and to determine if the data has been received by the subscriber. The application invokes a Web Service to retrieve a
stock quote (1) and (2) and sends the current quote - sendMessage - using the Parlay X Interface (3) of the Multimedia
Messaging Web Service. After invocation, the Multimedia Message Web Service sends the message to an MMS-C
using the MM7 interface (4) for onward transmission (5) to the subscriber over the Mobile network.
Later, when the next quote is ready, the application checks to see - getMessageDeliveryStatus - if the previous quote
has been successfully delivered to the subscriber. If not, it may for instance perform an action (not shown) to provide a
credit for the previous message transmission. This way, the subscriber is only charged for a stock quote if it is delivered
on time.

Figure 1: Multimedia Messaging Scenario
Alternatively this service could have been built using WAP Push features in the network.
Figure 2 shows an example scenario using sendMessage and getMessageDeliveryStatus to send a link to subscribers
and to determine if the data has been received by the subscriber. The application invokes a Web Service to generate a
stock quote graph (1) and (2) and sends the current quote as a WAP Push link - sendMessage - using the Parlay X
Interface (3) of the Multimedia Messaging Web Service. After invocation, the Multimedia Message Web Service sends
the message to an SMS-C (4) for onward transmission (5) to the subscriber over the Mobile network. The subscriber
can then open the link and access his content.

4 Detailed service description
Currently, in order to programmatically receive and send Multimedia Messages, it is necessary to write applications
using specific protocols to access MMS functions provided by network elements (e.g. MMS-C). This approach requires
application developers to have a high degree of network expertise.
This contribution defines a Multimedia Messaging Web Service that can map to SMS, EMS, MMS, IM, E-mail, etc.
The choice is between defining one set of interfaces per messaging network or a single set common to all networks;
e.g. we could define sendMMS, sendEMS, sendSMS, etc., or just use sendMessage. Although the more specific the API
the easier it is to use, there are advantages to a single set of network-neutral APIs. These advantages include:
• improved service portability;
• lower complexity, by providing support for generic user terminal capabilities only.
For this version of the Parlay X 3 specification, we provide sets of interfaces for two messaging Web Services:
Short Messaging (part 4) and Multimedia Messaging (the present document), which provides generic messaging
features (including SMS).
Multimedia Messaging provides operations (see clause 8.1, SendMessage API) for sending a Multimedia message to
the network and a polling mechanism for monitoring the delivery status of a sent Multimedia message. It also provides
an asynchronous notification mechanism for delivery status (see clause 8.3, MessageNotification API). In addition, a
mechanism is provided to start and stop the notification of delivery receipts (see clause 8.4,
MessageNotificationManager API).

Multimedia Messaging also allows an application to receive Multimedia messages. Both a polling (see clause 8.2,
ReceiveMessage API) and an asynchronous notification mechanism (see clause 8.3, MessageNotification API and
clause 8.4, MessageNotificationManager API) are available.
Figure 1 shows an example scenario using sendMessage and getMessageDeliveryStatus to send data to subscribers
and to determine if the data has been received by the subscriber. The application invokes a Web Service to retrieve a
stock quote (1) and (2) and sends the current quote - sendMessage - using the Parlay X Interface (3) of the Multimedia
Messaging Web Service. After invocation, the Multimedia Message Web Service sends the message to an MMS-C
using the MM7 interface (4) for onward transmission (5) to the subscriber over the Mobile network.
Later, when the next quote is ready, the application checks to see - getMessageDeliveryStatus - if the previous quote
has been successfully delivered to the subscriber. If not, it may for instance perform an action (not shown) to provide a
credit for the previous message transmission. This way, the subscriber is only charged for a stock quote if it is delivered
on time.

Figure 1: Multimedia Messaging Scenario
Alternatively this service could have been built using WAP Push features in the network.
Figure 2 shows an example scenario using sendMessage and getMessageDeliveryStatus to send a link to subscribers
and to determine if the data has been received by the subscriber. The application invokes a Web Service to generate a
stock quote graph (1) and (2) and sends the current quote as a WAP Push link - sendMessage - using the Parlay X
Interface (3) of the Multimedia Messaging Web Service. After invocation, the Multimedia Message Web Service sends
the message to an SMS-C (4) for onward transmission (5) to the subscriber over the Mobile network. The subscriber
can then open the link and access his content.
