<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method of granting privileges for the purpose of sharing resources in a telecommunication system.SOLUTION: A method and an apparatus are disclosed that provide a privilege-granting technique for enabling a service-providing domain to grant a privilege to a requesting user in a service-requesting domain. A request handler in the service-providing domain, which comprises one or more service-associated resources, receives a user request to use a service and requests a token from a privilege-granting server, in accordance with the illustrative embodiment of the present invention. Upon receiving the token that specifies a granted privilege from the privilege-granting server, the request handler extends the privilege to the requesting user. Alternatively, the request handler can request a plurality of tokens in advance from the privilege-granting server. After receiving the tokens, the request handler extends a privilege to each requesting user when receiving requests to use one or more services.</p> |
