Abstract
The telecommunications industry is entering a brave new world of communication where consumers are looking for new ways to stay connected. To keep up with the pace, service providers need a service creation environment (SCE) to rapidly develop, test, simulate, and deploy next-generation services including wireless data, voice, and Internet applications. Next-generation SCEs have to support a wide variety of network interfaces and protocols that allow network operators, application service providers (ASPs), and third-party developers to build, deploy, and manage such services. The Lucent Enhanced Services Authoring Environment (eSAE, pronounced “easy”) has been developed as an enabler of converged services with speed-to-market mindset. Service developers without any specialized skills in proprietary languages can create most of the services quickly by using industry standard languages like Java,∗ C++, and XML. This paper will explore in detail how the eSAE architecture promotes reusability using JavaBeans∗ component technology and how the visual assembly paradigm eases service composition. Open network application programming interfaces (APIs) (for example, JTAPI, FullCircle™, Parlay) can be incrementally supported for standards compliance. XML technology is leveraged for complete service specification (data modeling for call logic and service provisioning).3
