Appeal No. 2002-1686
Application No. 09/188,680
Appellants' independent claim 1 illustrates the Appellants'
claimed invention and is reproduced as follows:
1. A method for analyzing a plurality of calls on a
telecommunication network, the method comprising the steps of:
capturing particular management data messages, each
management data message having information concerning an
individual call of a plurality of calls, said particular
management data messages generated by a first carrier's
telecommunication network during processing of calls associated
with a second carrier's telecommunication network;
compiling a detailed record of each of a plurality of
interconnect calls crossing an interface between the first
carrier's telecommunication network and the second carrier's
telecommunication network from the captured particular management
data messages;
loading a plurality of detailed records of the plurality of
interconnect calls into a table database; and
processing the detailed records in the database table to
form a report of interconnect call traffic crossing the interface
between the telecommunication networks, wherein the step of
processing comprises:
enhancing the detailed records in the database table;
loading the enhanced detailed records into an on-line
analytical processing system; and
running a pre-defined study application in the on-line
analytical processing system to present specified analytical
study results based on the enhanced detailed records.
