6.5.3  Liberty Alliance Profile Service Specification 

The Liberty Alliance defines a global framework for identity management. This framework 

relies extensively on XML technologies (format and services specifications). The Liberty 

Alliance provides in particular a certain number of schema (expressed as xml schema) to 

describe person’s information. 

More precisely, these schemas include: 

•

 

Personal Profile 

The ID-SIS Personal Profile specification defines a Liberty Identity Service that supports 

person’s information regarding the Principal itself, be it in a private or work capacity. It is 

not intended to be a fully generic contact book and may not address all requirements of e-

commerce applications. It is intended to be the least common denominator for holding. 

•

 

Employee Profile 

ID-SIS-EP provides basic employee information. It is a Liberty Identity Service that 

supports person’s information regarding the Principal when in her job function. 

•

 

Contact Book 

The Liberty ID-SIS Contact Book (ID-SIS-CB) is a Liberty Identity Service that allows a 

Principal to manage contacts for private and business acquaintances, friends, family 

members, and even for herself. ID-SIS-CB supports communications applications, acting 

as Principal’s phone or address book, allowing her quickly and easily to locate the 

information needed to contact people and businesses. Many other applications may also 

benefit, e.g., an e-commerce application may enable the Principal to ship to any address in 

the Principal’s Contact Book.  

•

 

Geo-location 

The Liberty ID-SIS Geo-location (ID-SIS-GL) defines a web service. It offers geo-

location information regarding a Principal. The geo-location information includes the 

position of a Principal, speed and direction related information, and information related to 

the quality of the position information. 

•

 

Presence 

The core meaning of "presence" refers to a Principal’s availability for communications 

over a network. Examples include availability to talk over a traditional or mobile 

telephony network, chat over an instant messaging (IM) network, and participate in a 

video conference. In this core sense, presence is a boolean, "on/off" indicator of network 

availability. Over time, this core notion of presence has been extended to include other 

information about the Principal that changes quickly or that affects the Principal’s interest 

in or ability to engage in communications. Examples of such "extended presence" include

the Principal’s proximity to or interaction with a user agent (e.g., "away" or "do not 

disturb"), activity (e.g., "driving"), mood (e.g., "grumpy"), and date/time ranges for 

availability.
