This paper reviews some basic concepts about network management and introduces a new approach for the management of telecommunication networks, using SIS (System for the Integration of Supervision). The approach is based on the gradual integration of the existing proprietary management systems, while simultaneously moving towards the new ITU-T network management standards, namely TMN.

The growing number of unauthorized activities and various trends of networking technologies in telecommunication network have added heavy burdens to telecommunication performance management (PM) system. One-class-support vector machine (OCSVM) is introduced in this paper, to automatically detect network anomalies. Real telecommunication performance data are employed in this paper to investigate...

For interoperation of heterogeneous management systems and integration of existing legacy applications in telecommunication network management systems, a translation from GDMO/ASN.1 to a universal language is necessary. Inheriting the extensibility and flexibility of XML, as the application of XML in telecommunication, tML can be used in definition and publication of management interface inform...

At this time, telecommunication networks are present everywhere. These networks are not only rather complex, but they are also made up of different components. That is the reason telecommunication network management (TNM) is so relevant. This paper deals with two important aspects of telecommunication network management: managed objects and expert system rules. Definition of objects is based on...

The evolving liberalisation of the European telecommunication markets will result in a growing competition among service and network providers. In such an environment the rapid development and deployment of new telecommunication services take on increasing significance. The use of distributed object-oriented platforms that provide a set of common and generic building blocks for applications hel...

This paper introduces telecommunication services engineering through a definition of services, of network architectures that run services, and of methods, techniques and tools used to develop services. We emphasize the Intelligent Network (IN), the Telecommunication Management Network (TMN) and TINA architectures; we also discuss the impact of the Internet on these architectures.
