Abstract :
The future directions of intelligent network (IN) enhancements are discussed. The reasons why globalization of service provisions based on IN technology will be indispensable are also discussed. The functions required for global INs are analyzed. Possible schemes for IN function distributions are identified. The functions that should be centralized and distributed are clarified. Global IN architecture models are proposed. The areas which need extensive study for global INs are reviewed.<>
