New generation of telecommunication services aims at achieving a customization and intelligent information management. Furthermore,
most of these services are inherently collaborative. Developing this kind of services requires a middleware which can support
intelligent information management in a decoupled and flexible way. This paper presents Triplespaces, a communication and
coordination semantic middleware for the development of services based on persistent publication of information. Triplespaces
manage information represented in RDF, supporting Web service standards. The authors motivate its benefits to develop new
generation telecommunication services.
