Abstract: A system that associates a particular called number with a particular telephone number on an MDN line. An association table is established which associates particular called numbers with particular numbers on the MDN line. Thereafter calls from the MDN line to any number in the association table results in the call being identified as being from the MDN number associated with the called number in the association table. That is, after a particular called number is associated with a particular MDN number, calls from the MDN line to the particular called number are identified as being from the associated the MDN number. If a called number is in the Association Table, call from that number can be associated with a particular MDN number to provide a distinctive ring tone or other special features.

Abstract: A flexible service management system creates, provisions, customizes, and restricts service offerings available on an intelligent network. A service creation environment has a schema query, service screen builder, and logic analyzer that cooperate to create a service screen definition. The service screen definition supports graphical user interfaces that interface with a telephony database. The service screen definition is deployed to a service management system within a service definition package, the service management system interfacing with a telephony database storing telephony data for supporting a service. The service screen definition enables a screen interpreter that can reside on a service management access point to communicate and transact data with the telephony database.

Abstract: An ISP 10 provides enhanced features compatible with non-AIN switches to allow service providers to provide customers with features such as voice prompting, DTMF number collection, fax on demand and similar features. In one embodiment, the ISP can also be configured as an IP. Enhanced features can be accomplished using the ISP, such as advanced routing of long distance calls based on ANI, authorization codes, type of call, time of day, origination of call and destination of call.

Abstract: A universal personal telecommunications service includes the steps of receiving, at a home service switching point, a telephone number entered by a caller, sending a query to the service control point coupled to the service switching point, which verifies the received telephone number as a personal telecommunications number assigned to a service subscriber. The telephone number is then translated by the service control point to a current destination number by consulting routing data indicative of a current location of the service subscriber, the routing data including follow-me diversion data and time dependent routing data. The call is then completed to the current destination number of the service subscriber.
