  1. Practical Implementations of TINA_C concepts and specifications TINA_C September 14th, 2000 Martine Lapierre

  2. We use TINA foundations • Distributed Processing using CORBA is everywhere • All TMN is now choosing CORBA and IDL/UML tools • Most Servers like IN use CORBA internally • Convergence of telephony and IT techniques happened • Voice over Packet replaces/extends the PSTN • GPRS, UMTS data, Internet NAS mix technologies • Convergence added value came (Unified mails, IN@IP...) • TINA boosted IT & IP understanding in our companies • TINA trials are well known in ATM and 3G-Mobile R&D

  3. We use TINA Business model butInterfaces have changed HTTP Retailer Application Service Providers (CASP, IASP...) End User 3rd Party Serv. Prov. OSA SIP Connectivity Provider Ret: HTTP Tcon: SIP,... Cons: OSA,...

  4. Our achievements: TINA Products Some courageous trend-setters choices in 97/99 • Sprint • ION early implementation: ATM always on services using the full TINA architecture and objects • Starvision • SCMS-25000: TINA based control and management system of Atm and IP networks • offered in conjunction of MM conferencing • A few TINA-like inside products, like Alcatel 1000E10 DHA

  5. Our achievements: TINA pre-industrial • TINA Tools, beside the UML/OMG toolkits • TINA-ACE from CSELT • Y.SCE from GMG Focus • Platytool from Telstra • Many TINA trials (non extensive list) on ATM and NM: • European projects (most manufacturers) • CDOT trial, and most operators R&D trials • Platform and TINA components: Alcatel MU3S • product derived from European platform ALCIN • Few decisions to convert them to industrial products...

  6. Example of TINA inside Alcatel switch A1000 DHA (Data Handling Application) • DHA remains in the Softswitch version of the Call Control Circuit Interfaces Auxiliaries & Gateways Switching Kernel 1000E10 switch Call Handling coftc DPE Data Handling Application

  7. Example of Full TINA complianceAlcatel Mu3SUsed in Geneva 99, another to KPN and their customers,... • Full TINA platform with all the reference points specifications/code, objects,... • The stability of the platform amazed R&D. • Services spanned the entire space from e-content to broadband content delivery: added value on top of ADSL, ATM service managt, ... • Most visitors were more impressed by the TINA demo than by the services demo! • Soft transition to the 3G Mobile MM Application Server in the same R&D team.

  8. Alcatel Mu3S reuse in MMASThe TINA Session model Enables • Mu3S relies on the TINA session model • 3 alternative DPE were built -> terminals FULL DPE Retailer DPE to Web conversion Access Session Proxy to IN SSP AAA, Brokering & Mobility CommunicationSession Logical channels Now Parlay legs Service Y Controls Service Session

  9. A TINA Success Story:(Telecom Service Access & Subscription)OMG TSAS • Most of the specification is based on TINA specs Restructured and simplified; • aligned with Parlay 2.0 specs. Consumer Domain ServiceProviderDomain RetailerDomain Subscriber • ...ITU Q27 & Q28 End-User • It is used in Industrial 3G Mobile Core Network nodes, like Alcatel MMCS and MMAS

  10. Next TINA Success Story:OSA 99 (Open Service architecture) 3rd Party Application Open Service Architecture Mapping to network specific protocols (MAP, CAP, …) • A 3G Mobile standard by 3GPP,ETSI SPAN12,& ITU-T • OSA for UMTS release 99 has been finished and approved; work is ongoing for R 2000 • It is based on the OMG TSAS OSA API interface class User Call control User Interaction, Terminal Capability... framework Service capability server(s) Location Network Network complexity hidden from applications • It is used in Industrial 3G Mobile Core Network nodes, like Alcatel MMCS and MMAS

  11. ConclusionTINA for next years • The TINA techno arrived before its time • Corba was not mature • the Internet based interfaces force was underestimated • If the original goal was too ambitious (one computing model all across the net), the application to the Service level is now granted • Network abstract model, TINA simplified in OSA • to become more distributed (SIP like) than Call centric (OSA like) • The model will live • QoS in IP should resurrect stream binding notions • Open frameworks to feed a community of 3rd party services is a neverending fashion! • Above all, TINA Core teamers are a network of HIGH POTENTIAL PEOPLE in our companies
