Abstract

This paper presents a vision of an architecture for the next generation public telecommunications network. It considers the core network and the variety of access mechanisms. It identifies ATM (asynchronous transfer mode), SDH (synchronous digital hierarchy) and ODP (open distributed processing) as a key enablers to meet the vision. Having given an insight into the vision of the network, it suggests the possible positioning of distributed computing technologies such as CORBA (Common Object Request Broker Architecture)
