A solution to these challenges is to build a new Business and Operations Support System (BOSS). Considering the numerous varieties of 3G services as well as the QoS requirements, it is suggested that operators should integrate the existing Business Support Systems (BSS) and Operations Support Systems (OSS), perfect the Customer Relationship Management (CRM), make the systems adapt to the life cycle of data, information and services, and make steady progress in standardization work.展开更多

Therefore, the NGN business and operations support focuses on customers, totally different from that of the conventional telecommunications network, which concentrates on network operation and maintenance. An NGN operations and maintenance support system should be customer-focused, market-oriented and profit-targeted. Based on its unified NGN operations and maintenance support system, ZTE has implemented an integrated network management system that covers every functional level of the NGN. Accordingly, technical updates can be implemented flexibly on the network to meet the requirements of technology revolution, and new customer-oriented services can be offered to operators.展开更多

According to the outcome of above analysis, a conceptual model of optimizing business processes is proposed which supports to construct dynamic stable business processes.

The aim is to capture an organization’s processes and achieve its business objectives. Currently, there are many solutions for Business Process Modeling and Design offered by vendors. However, the selection of one solution or another by customers is usually conducted in an ad-hoc manner. Given the underlying environment that a customer might have and their limitations, there is no standard methodology that can help in the selection of the most appropriate solution. This paper therefore highlights the key characteristics of BPM solutions in the market to facilitate an understanding of the compatibility of a given solution with customer’s environments;hence, customers can then make informed decisions regarding their selections.展开更多

This proposed model directly contributes to both scientific research artificial intelligent area and business practices. From business perspective it empowers the use of artificial intelligent models and techniques to drive decision making processes over financial statements. From scientific and research area the impact is based on the combination of 1) an Information Seeking Dialog Protocol in which a requestor agent inquires the business case, 2) a Facts Valuation based Protocol in which the previously gathered facts are analyzed, 3) the already incorporated initial knowledge of a human expert via initial beliefs, 4) the Intra-Agent Decision Making Protocol based on deductive argumentation and 5) the semi automated Dynamic Knowledge Learning Protocol. Last but not least the suggested way of integration of this proposed model in a higher level multiagent intelligent system in which a Joint Deliberative Dialog Protocol and an Inter-Agent Decision Deductive Argumentation Making Protocol are described.展开更多
