Objective
The overall objective of the application experiment is the development of an intelligent node with a package of Intelligent Networks Services. These services will be developed according to the ETSI CS1 (Capability Set 1) standard using a commercial and already available hardware/software platform and a digital switch developed at CET (Portugal Telecom Research & Development), manufactured by the national industry and currently installed in Telecom Portugal's telecommunication network. The Service Switching Point (SSP) will be implemented in the digital switch or in the computational platform (HP 9000/827). This platform will be used as Service Control Point (Service Execution). Service Access is implemented in the SSP.
CCITT and ETSI adopted SDL as a formal specification language to be used in telecommunications software development. A software tool commercially available (SDT) currently provides capabilities for the analysis, specification, documentation, code generation and testing of software and is evolving towards SDL 92. This tool runs both in the chosen computational platform and in PC environments. SDL running in both computational platforms are compatible and the generated code will run in the HP 9000/827.
The first set of IN standards is now emerging and one can say that the correspondent SDL specification is not (at the moment) as complete as it should. The results to be achieved at the end and during this experiment will also constitute a unique opportunity to provide significant inputs to the standard bodies (e.g. ETSI groups within this field, namely NA6 and NA7) and can also contribute to the work being carried out in other R&D Institutions as the EURESCOM with its initiatives in the IN domain (e.g. EU P103 - Evolution of Intelligent Networks, EU P230 - Pan-European IN) where CET is involved. IN Services to be implemented are CS-1 like services (e.g. Credit Card Calling, Account Card Calling, Freephone, Universal Personal Telecommunications, Universal Access Number and Virtual Private Network). The exact type of services to be implemented is not highly relevant to the project because CET is also developing a SCE (Service Creation Environment) tool (prototype available in 3Q94) to be integrated in the CET-IN project, witch will enable the creation of almost any CS-1 type of services. The SDT tool is used to build the real-time execution environment of those services (SSP and/or SCP).
