Abstract

The invention relates to a method according to which a portal site (10) for a user is automatically generated on a terminal (12). A request profile (16) of the respective user, terminal-specific parameters (18) and services which are available for the terminal (12) are detected. The selected services are subsequently allocated. In another embodiment, a portal site is automatically generated.

Claims

1. A method for creating a personifiable interface between a terminal (12) associated with a subscriber and a plurality of services in at least one network, particularly services for data transmission and communication at least to some extent over the Internet, which has the following steps:

a) a request profile (16) for the subscriber is recorded,

b) technical, communication-related characteristic variables (18) are recorded electronically and/or manually,

c) the request profile (16) is associated with the services on the basis of the characteristic variables (18),

d) the subscriber-specific interface is created on the basis of the preceding steps.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that the interface is visualized.

3. The method as claimed in claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the network is a circuit-switched network and/or a packet-switched network.

4. The method as claimed in one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the interface is a graphical user interface, particularly a portal site (10), for the subscriber to communicate with other subscribers and/or entities over the Internet.

5. The method as claimed in one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the data transmission is transmission of written and/or voice and/or video and/or picture data.

6. The method as claimed in one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the terminal (12) is an H.323 terminal.

7. The method as claimed in one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the interface is based on the RTP (Realtime Transport Protocol) and/or on the TCP (Transmission Control Protocol).

8. The method as claimed in one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the generated interface comprises at least one communication channel (20).

9. The method as claimed in claim 8, characterized in that generation of the interface includes all association options, which means that the subscriber has the option of choosing between a plurality of services within the communication channel (20).

10. The method as claimed in one of claims 8 or 9, characterized in that the communication channel (20) comprises at least one IT service.

11. The method as claimed in one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the recorded characteristic variables (18) are characteristic variables about the terminal (12), about the peripheral area thereof and about available services, in particular for data transmission.

12. The method as claimed in one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the interface is visualized via a browser.
