  • Patent number: 10127020
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a new paradigm in Multimedia Services Creation Methodology, and new Service Creation and Service Execution Environments, based on this methodology. A service designer can access the Service Creation Environment via a Web based Graphical User Interface (GUI), to design new service in an automated way. The design process includes creation of the Service Logic Script (SLS), and associated databases that are used for storage of service and subscriber related data. The service developer (user) assembles Language Graphical Objects (LGO) into Service Logic Script. LGOs are part of a new graphical language that has been developed to meet multimedia service creation needs. They represent service control and call control primitive functions that have to be performed, in order to provide a multimedia service to service subscribers.

  • Patent number: 9893959
    Abstract: System and method for modeling resource requirements using a resource modeling language to specify and control the placement of resources in a cloud environment are disclosed. Modeling the resource requirements provides control over placement of resources when resiliency, latency and/or other requirements are imposed. In some embodiments, the resource modeling language enables a client to specify number, type and specification of resources as well as set of relationships among the resources. In various embodiments, the system receives via a user interface resource modeling information including specification of one or more resources and a set of rules for placement of the one or more resources in a cloud environment. The system then creates a model based on the resource modeling information, which is stored in a datastore. In response to a request, the system places an order with a cloud controller to instantiate the model in the cloud environment.
