  • Publication number: 20030054803
    Abstract: A system and method is disclosed that allows and supports the creation of new services and the enhancement of existing services rendered to users of an Office Land Mobile Network (OLMN). A Service Creation Environment (SCE) process is initiated that accesses state information throughout the OLMN and processes requests for services depending upon such state. The SCE communicates with various network elements via triggers that are conditionally satisfied according to state information in the OLMN. A method for supporting services in a Office Land Mobile Network is further disclosed wherein the steps of said method comprising: initiating a process wherein said process accepts service requests from said users; providing communication access points between said process and applications providing said service; accepting as input by said process a plurality of state information concerning users and said Office Land Mobile Network; satisfying said service requests by said users depending on said state information.
