| Abstract | Intelligent Network (IN) is a telecommunication architecture which enhances the
management of service logic and related service data. It uses centralized database and control
for the efficient performance of the network as well as introduction of more enhanced and
sophisticated services. The increased architectural complexity of the IN places a heavy demand
on the resource elements. The Service Control Point (SCP) is the element of the IN where the
centralized service logic and related data resides. The allowed SCP delay limit is expressed
as a maximum .average delay and the maximum delay experienced by 95% of the calls
(commonly known as the 95th percentile delay).
This thesis modeled the SCP based on Bellcore's Advanced Intelligent Network (AIN)
Release 1 SCP architecture and investigated the effects of different parameters on the SCP
delay characteristics. The effects were quantified and delay values were tabulated for different
hardware configurations. The factors influencing the delay probability density function (pdf)
were determined. Equations establishing the relationships between the SCP delay and the SCP
hardware/software configurations were derived, to help in network planning. The ratio of 95th
percentile delay to mean delay and the slope of the SCP delay pdf at the 95th percentile delay
were determined as parameters that can be used to describe the SCP performance . |
