First Claim
1. Service provisioning method in a communications system comprising a plurality of communications devices (CD1, CD2, CD3) each including a tag reader (TR) for reading a tag-identifier from a tag attached to an object and for forwarding said tag-identifier to a service provisioning server (SPS), said service provisioning server being coupled to said communications device over a communications network, said tag having a unique tag-identification, wherein said service provisioning method further comprises the following steps of:
- a2. forwarding, by a communications device (CD2) of said plurality of communications devices (CD1, CD2, CD3) a trigger message including trigger-information at reading the tag-identification of said tag, towards said service provisioning server (SPS); and
b. determining a service-description of a service based on said trigger-information associated with said service stored in a service-list.c. executing said service, by said service provisioning server (SPS) based on said service description retrieved.

Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for Service provisioning in a communications system that comprises a plurality of communications devices, each including a tag reader for reading a tag-identifier from a tag attached to an object and for forwarding this tag-identifier to a service provisioning server. This service provisioning server is coupled to the communications devices over a communications network and the tag having a unique tag-identification. The service provisioning method further includes the steps of forwarding by a communications device of the plurality of communications devices a trigger message including trigger-information at reading the tag-identification of the tag towards the service provisioning server. Subsequently, a service-description of a service based on the trigger-information associated with the service stored in a service-list is determined followed by the executing of the service determined by the service provisioning server based on the retrieved service description.
