Abstract:
A telecommunications switching network or Intelligent Network Architecture (170) includes a novel central administration (500) and Resource Complex (18 0) for administering and tracking service resources to a plurality of nodes (20 4) capable of telecommunications service processing.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for deploying and activating services in a communications network (202). In the context of a communications network (20 2) that deploys service functionality by distributing managed software objects to the service processing nodes (204), the present invention relates to selectively dispensing managed objects from a repository (230) and coordinating the instantaneous activation or deactivation of services throug h the communications network (202). Furthermore, where a managed object servic e creation environment (228) is coupled to the communications network (202), t he method and apparatus of the present invention provides security, back-up, an d version control of managed objects and other network data stored in the repository (230).
