Abstract
The present invention relates to the exchange of images and image related data between at least two end points 10, 11, 12, 13, in which exchange at least one wireless terminal 10, 11, 12 is a participating end point. The invention is based on the insight to use the Session Initiation Protocol as an upper layer protocol to enable usage of a client-server protocol that handles images, such that efficient transfer of image related data between a client 10, 11, 12 and a server 10, 11, 12, 13 is achieved. An embodiment of the invention is based on the further insight to use the Session Initiation Protocol as an upper layer protocol to enable usage of the JPIP protocol, which latter is a client-server protocol for handling images, such that efficient transfer of image related data between a client and a server is achieved.
