1. A method for controlling communication between a number of first terminal modules connected to a multimedia IP network, comprising the steps of:
- establishing a first communications session between the first terminal modules, wherein the first communications session is a call session having a call session token;
storing information related to the first communication session;
receiving a request signal from one of the first terminal modules including a request to establish a second communication session, wherein the request signal is not a call request signal;
selecting an application server based on a service type corresponding to the request signal;
creating a service session token corresponding to the second communication session based on the service type;
relating the service session token with the call session token;
establishing the second communication session between at least a subset of the first terminal modules;
storing relation information relating the first and the second communication sessions in an application session relation storage separate from the first terminal modules, wherein the relation information includes the call session token of the first communication session and the service session token of the second communication session; and
automatically handing over the second communication session when the first communication session is handed over.

9. A Multimedia IP network system adapted to control communication between terminal modules connected to a multimedia IP network, the system comprising:
-
a call control application server comprising a call session storage device for storing information related to a first communication session, wherein the first communication session is a call session having a call session token, between at least two terminal modules connected to the multimedia IP network, an inquiry interface for receiving inquiries requesting information stored in said call session storage device, and an inquiry analysis device for processing a received inquiry and accessing said call session storage device for providing the requested information; a relation storage device separate from the at least two terminal modules; and an application session control module for; retrieving the information stored in said call session storage device via the inquiry interface, using the information stored in said call session storage device to determine if a request to establish a second communication session is received from one of the at least two terminal modules involved in the first communication session, wherein the request is not a call request, selecting an application server based on a service type corresponding to the request, creating a service session token corresponding to the second communication session based on the service type, relating the service session token with the call session token, storing relation information relating the first communication session and the second communication session in the relation storage device, and automatically handing over the second communication session when the first communication session is handed over; wherein the relation information includes the call session token of the first communication session and the service session token of the second communication session.

10. A Multimedia IP network system adapted to control communication between a number of first terminal modules connected to a multimedia IP network, the system comprising:
-
a first application server adapted to control a first communication session, wherein the first communication session is a call session having a call session token, between a plurality of terminal modules connected to the network system; at least one second application server adapted to control a second communication session between at least a subset of the plurality of terminal modules; a session storage device for storing information on the first and second communication sessions; and a control module for; retrieving the information stored in the session storage device and determining, based on the retrieved information, determining that a request to establish the second communication session is received from one of the plurality of terminals involved in the first communication session, wherein the request is not a call request; selecting an application server based on a service type corresponding to the request, creating a service session token corresponding to the second communication session based on the service type, relating the service session token with the call session token, storing relation information relating the first communication session and the second communication session in a relation storage device separate from the plurality of terminal modules, and automatically handing over the second communication session when the first communication session is handed over; wherein the relation information includes the call session token of the first communication session and the service session token of the second communication session. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12)
