摘要:
A personal communications internetworking (40) provides a network subscriber with the ability to remotely control the receipt and delivery of wireless and wireline voice text messages. The network operates as an interface between various wireless (39) and wireline (29) networks, and also performs media translation, where necessary. The subscriber's message receipt and delivery options are maintained in a database which the subscriber may access by wireless or wireline communications to update the options programmed in the database. The subscriber may be provided with Call/Command service which provides real-time control of voice calls while using a wireless data terminal (32, 34) or PDA (30).

The figure illustrates the architecture of an intelligent network (10). In response to a trigger (20) in a call (18), service arbitration logic (26) of a Service Control Point (SCP) router (22) provides a particular service to a subscriber unit (12) by routing the subscriber unit (12) to a pertinent location in which that particular service logic resides. The location may be in a proprietary, secondary SCP (42-46) belonging to a third party. As such, service functionality may be distributed and controlled between the SCP router (22) and at least one secondary SCP responsive thereto.

The invention describes a process for supporting private numbering schemes by public telecommunications systems in which a connection is made via the public telecommunications system between a subscriber to any telecommunications system and a subscriber to a private system. Here the connection is made by means of a freely definable number selected by the calling subscriber, where a part of the called number needed for the subsequent connection to an within the private telecommunications system is not transmitted via the signalling system of the lines of the public system involved, but exchanged directly between the origin and destination line of the public system via a databank established in a service junction in the public system.

A telecommunication network comprises a local switch for receiving and switching a telecommunication signal to remote switches in the network. A local control arrangement is provided which includes a memory for storing instructions and data and which uses the stored instructions and data to control the switching operation of the local switch. A remote control arrangement is provided which also includes a memory for storing equivalent instructions and data. The remote control arrangement is also adapted to control the switching operation of the local switch and the local switch can be controlled by either the local or the remote control arrangements. A manager is provided for modifying the instructions and data in the memories of the local and remote control means and modify the instructions and data in either the local or remote control arrangements immediately. A marker is then sent to the other of the local or remote control means to mark the instructions and data as being out of date. The manager can then modify the marked instructions and data at a later date. The switch is arranged to initially request control from the local control arrangement and the marker is checked to determine if the instructions and data in the local control arrangement are up to date. If not, control is passed to the remote control arrangement.

A service creation system for a communications network of the intelligent network type has 3 different levels at which service creation activities can be carried out, these being SCE1, SCE2 and SCE3. The use of separate levels allows access to the service creation system to be kept functionally separate for users having different interests in the network. Hence, features which have to be installed at the network element level for a selected service to be available can be created in SCE1. Marketable service features, which give a view of features in that they encapsulate call handling logic thereof together with support and management descriptions of the feature, can be created in SCE2. Service packages, which permit collection of marketable service features to meet requirements of a service together with service-specific support and management information, can be created in either of SCE2 or SCE3. Profiles, which list the features relevant to a service for a user and provide data slots for the data necessary to each feature, can be provisioned and modified in SCE3.

An apparatus and method for parsing foreign telephone numbers according to the nature of the address of those numbers. In particular, a method for parsing a telephone number in an intelligent service control point of a telephone network comprising the steps of determining the nature (610) of the address of the telephone number as national, international, or other; and extracting the fields (615) of the telephone number according to the nature of the address.

An attribute design database system provides for inventory management, order process management and design management. The system operates in a telecommunications management network provisioning environment. It provides a physical network management system that includes various telecommunications network management tools. Graphical user interface facilitates the user's navigation of the database system to enable the same person to have access to and the ability to modify information in regards to inventory management, design management and order management for the network.
