A programmable control architecture for TMN Q3 interface

The lack of flexibility of traditional TMN architecture becomes a serious obstacle to modem multi-vendor network environment. We propose a novel programmable control architecture for TMN Q3 EML/NML interface to address such issues. Our approach provides an effective and systematic solution to complicated telecommunication network management in a multi-vendor network environment, and facilitates rapid and easy deployment of new network management services and operations at NML, through the TMN CMIP mechanism.
