Abstract
TNMSKernel, a network operations system development platform, can be used to produce a Management Information Base (MIB) in conjunction with a database management system. A previous study used a RDBMS (Relational Database Management System) and an OODBMS (Object-Oriented Database Management System), to implement two functionally equivalent MIB functions. However, these MIB implementations are not suitable for network elements such as digital cross-connect systems and subscriber line terminals. Because processing capabilities including processing power, memories and disk I/O speeds for TMN operations interface attached to them are limited. These problems are solved by implementing a new MIB on the main memory technique. The proposed method offers sufficient performance comparing with methods using RDBMS and OODBMS. Furthermore, this paper describes a strategy of selecting the best MIB implementation for each sub-system in an ATM transport network operations system. The effectiveness of the strategy is confirmed through an experiment on a prototype ATM transport network operations system.KeywordsMIBTMNOSIMain Memory Resident DatabaseATMNetwork Element
