Abstract
A method of validating a procedure allows several processes to be involved in the validation of a single event. The method involves defining relationships between FSMs which describe the entities, selecting the processes which fulfill certain criteria, and processing the event in all of the selected processes.
Claims6
A method of validating an event in an Intelligent Network comprising a plurality of processes, the method comprising the steps of:
- selecting a number of processes from said plurality of processes wherein said selected number of processes meet a predetermined criteria;
- and
- independently processing the event in each of the selected processes wherein the selecting step comprises defining relationships between Finite State Machines representing the processes, including defining container interfaces between the processes.
