  • Patent number: 5610915
    Abstract: In a telecommunications network, to provide both statistical reporting functions and reporting on a call by call detail basis, a Traffic View Server (TVS) system is incorporated with a MCI Traffic Statistics (MTS) system. The TVS is responsive to instructions provided by subscribers so that reports may be provided on a given time period, at a given frequency and in a particular format, as instructed by the subscribers. Standard reports are delivered via E-Mail, fax or hard copy. A subscriber may obtain a static view of the traffic for a special service call number by communicating with the TVS. Moreover, a remote subscriber may download from the TVS a data file which contains raw call details and statistics that he can import to his own reports. Different types of call detail reports may be generated from the TVS.

  • Patent number: 5537611
    Abstract: In a telecommunication network, a DATA ACCESS POINT (DAP) database is used to route traffic between originating calling stations and terminating called stations for special service processing calls. The traffic or routing data are collected and converted by a traffic statistics processor into statistics data. The statistics data are provided to the management of the network. Some of the statistics data are converted by an INTEGRATED NETWORK MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (INMS) compiler processor into reports which may be provided to subscribers of the special call processing service in real time or on a delay basis. If a subscriber has subscribed to the special call processing service on a real time basis, he can update certain parameters of the database to reallocate the percentage of calls to be directed to the different called station staffed by his operators.
