Abstract
A telecommunications network is accessible to a user equipment via at least a first access node or a second access node. For supporting one or more application services which are accessible to the user equipment via the first access node or via the second access node, a first application service platform is provided at the first access node, and a second application service platform is provided at the second access node. Via the first application service platform at the first access node an application service is provided to the user equipment which is connected to the first access node. At handover of the user equipment from the first access node to the second access node, a context of the user equipment is moved from the application service platform at the first access node to the second application service platform at the second access node.
