Functional Architecture and Prototype of A Service Control Point (SCP)

摘要

The Intelligent Network (IN) is a flexible and efficient service architecture for telecommunication network.The introduction of IN architecture into telecommunication system has brought a great impact on service creation and provisioning.The IN will play a more and more important role in telecommunication industry in the near future.This paper presents the design issues of the key component of the IN system,the Service Control Point (SCP),currently developed by Computer and Communication Research Laboratories (CCL) at Taiwan.The major functionalities of the SCP Platform will be described.In addition,the experience of the rapid prototyping system connecting to Siemens EWSD SSP to provide a simplified VPN service is also stated.
