Abstract
In recent decades, communications network has evolved at drastic speed to provide advanced and intelligent services. This strengthening service provision owes to the successful establishment of various intelligent networks and the use of artificial intelligence, pervasive computing, and social networking in communications. It has consequently endowed network users with abundant choices of communication services. While these communications services are bringing convenience to human lives, people in turn are performing more tasks. The current network with its large number of available communications services is then often burdening network users with the complexity and inflexibility in using these services. In particular, the network lacks the initiative and the ability to investigate a user’s most recent communication needs and subsequently adjust the manner of service provision according to these needs and user connecting possibilities. The network needs to be more intelligent to handle these problems. We therefore propose importing human-like intelligence into the network to facilitate communication-session processing according to user needs.
