Abstract
The telecommunications networks managed by the divested Bell operating companies (BOCs/IDCs) are rapidly evolving into digital networks. The authors discuss the major driving forces and characteristics that are shaping operations transition plans and formulate an operations strategy that is designed to position BOCs/IDCs to manage these digital networks. They describe a Bellcore prototype operations system, referred to as the network monitoring and analysis (NMA) system, that has been tested in one of the BOCs
