Abstract The provision and delivery of personalised services across network and terminal boundaries with the same look and feel is currently a challenging issue for service provisioning in future telecommunication networks like UMTS (Universal Mobile Telecommunication System). This paper describes an advanced mobile agent-based approach for realisation of the VHE (Virtual Home Environment) concept considering two main aspects namely service roaming and terminal independence. The first one implicates the accessibility of personalised services in any network the user roams to, while the latter deals with the adaptation of the service presentation to the corresponding end device (mobile phone, Laptop, PDA,...) according to its capacity and system features as well as the specific user profile. The implementation of some service prototypes are described which were developed in the framework of the ACTS CAMELEON project [11,12].
