Abstract:
A method and a call manager node (200) for handling calls directed to a group of subscribers. When receiving (2:3) a request from a caller (202) for access to a first group of subscribers (204) having at least one common characteristic, the call manager node assigns (2:4) first caller-specific temporary group number (A1) for the caller, wherein the first group number can be used exclusively by the caller for calling the subscribers in the first group. The call manager node further sends (2:5) the first group number to the caller in response to the request. The caller is then connected (2:7, 2:9, 2:11) to a subscriber in the first group sequentially or according to a scheme each time the caller dials (2:6, 2:8, 2:10) the first group number. The group is created according to a criteria and the anonymity of the called parties is kept. Call hunting.
Abstract:
The invention refers to a method of correlating a plurality of service instances by a service composition entity, wherein the services are performed by one or a plurality of servers of a telecommunications network. Thereto, the service composition entity performs the steps of invoking a composite service instance corresponding to the service request, and generating a composite service identifier identifying this composite service instance, contacting the one or a plurality of application servers for invoking the plurality of component service instances, wherein the plurality of component service instances are associated to the composite service instance, and sending a first service report comprising an information about the composite service instance to a service supervision system, wherein this information enables the service supervision system to identify reports about the component service instances as being associated to the composite service instance. The invention further proposes a service composition entity for correlating the plurality of service instances, and a service supervision system for monitoring, supervising or controlling the composite service instance.
Abstract:
There is provided a data structure for re-configuration of an application hosted in a cloud computing environment. The data structure comprises a software template for use in a software scheme. The software template describes a flow of actions executable by a cloud management unit in the cloud computing environment for re-configuration of an application hosted by the management unit and executable by the management unit using the software scheme. The software template comprises software instructions comprising a first portion of software instructions non-editable by a programming interface unit of the hosted application. The software template allows for a second portion of software instructions to be added to the software template by the programming interface unit of the hosted application. Methods and devices for re-configuration using the data structure are also provided.
Abstract:
The Invention relates to dynamic execution or triggering of internet services. A dynamic execution of interne services accordingly comprise intercepting (S2OO) a first message sent from a source entity to a destination entity to obtain an intercepted message; determining (S200) whether at least one triggering condition Is given based on said intercepted message, the triggering condition associated to execution of at least one interne service; invoking (S300) said at least one interne service, if it is determined that said at least one triggering condition is given; creating (S400) a second message based on said at least one invoked interne service.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for managing an execution of a composite service, the composite service comprising constituent services. The method comprises providing (101) first service complexity measures indicating a complexity related to executing a number of constituent services of the composite service by a first service execution node, providing (103) second service complexity measures indicating a complexity related to executing the number of constituent services of the composite service by a second service execution node, determining (105) a first total complexity measure upon the basis of the first service complexity measures, determining (107) a second total complexity measure upon the basis of second service complexity measures, and selecting (109) either the first service execution node or the second service execution node in dependency of at least one of: the first total complexity measure or the second total complexity measure for executing the number of constituent services of the composite service.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for managing session data of a composite service session in a communication network, the composite service session originating from executing a composite service. The method comprises determining (101) a subset of the session data which will likely be used for executing the composite service at a certain execution state of the composite service session, and transmitting (103) the subset of the session data over the communication network towards a certain session node, the certain session node being involved in executing the composite service at the certain execution state.
