Abstract

Advanced design methods are needed to fulfill the increasing requirements of telecommunication service development. For a design method the relevant concepts for the application domain have to be de- fined, a supporting notation has to be declared and finally rules have to be developed to map design models to supporting runtime environments. The ITU-T has followed this route by defining concepts for the design of distributed telecommunication applications and supporting notations for these concepts. In the past, the ITU-T has defined several languages and notations to support structural and behavioral descriptions of distributed telecommunication systems, namely ODL, SDL-2000 and MSC- 2000. With the rise of the component age, an additional technique (DCL) is under development that enables component based manufacturing of distributed systems. Beside these languages, the ITU-T recognized the common need for open, component aware object middleware platform standards as the runtime environment for these systems. This contribution is about integration.
