  • Coordinated management of contracts and services particulary for telecommunications
    Publication number: 20030033162
    Abstract: The management consists of constructing (S1) in object-oriented technology a service model (80) and a contract model (90); generating (S2) the service (85) and the contract (100) from the two models (80, 90) so that, at any time, a maximum number of versions, equal to at least two (85a, 85b; 100a, 100b), of each is defined; defining (S3) periods of application (88, 105) of said versions (85a, 85b; 100a, 100b); and defining (S4) statuses (89, 106) for the versions (85a, 85b; 100a, 100b), so as to determine, at any time, a coordination between a service version (85a) and a contract version (100a). This method allows for fully automatic management and ensures easy adaptation and fast and reliable continuity of the versions.
