  • Switch reconfiguration
    Patent number: 5982769
    Abstract: The operationality of instructions arranged to control a telecommunications switch is tested by referring to originating instructions. A module of instructions forming part of encoded sets of originating instructions is identified, and the module is processed to obtain definitions of its interactivity with other modules of the instruction set and the interactivity with signal transmissions external to the module. This facilitates the generation of upgraded or replacement originating instructions from which new executable instructions are obtainable after being embedded within the telecommunications switch.
