We use TINA foundations

• Distributed Processing using CORBA is everywhere
• All TMN is now choosing CORBA and IDL/UML tools
• Most Servers like IN use CORBA internally
• Convergence of telephony and IT techniques
  happened
• Voice over Packet replaces/extends the PSTN
• GPRS, UMTS data, Internet NAS mix technologies
• Convergence added value came (Unified mails,
  IN_at_IP...)
• TINA boosted IT IP understanding in our
  companies
• TINA trials are well known in ATM and 3G-Mobile
  RD

Our achievements TINA Products

• Some courageous trend-setters choices in 97/99
• Sprint
• ION early implementation ATM always on services
  using the full TINA architecture and objects
• Starvision
• SCMS-25000 TINA based control and management
  system of Atm and IP networks
• offered in conjunction of MM conferencing
• A few TINA-like inside products, like Alcatel
  1000E10 DHA

Our achievements TINA pre-industrial

• TINA Tools, beside the UML/OMG toolkits
• TINA-ACE from CSELT
• Y.SCE from GMG Focus
• Platytool from Telstra
• Many TINA trials (non extensive list) on ATM and
  NM
• European projects (most manufacturers)
• CDOT trial, and most operators RD trials
• Platform and TINA components Alcatel MU3S
• product derived from European platform ALCIN
• Few decisions to convert them to industrial
  products...

Call Handling

• DHA remains in the Softswitch version of the Call

Example of Full TINA compliance Alcatel Mu3S
Used in Geneva 99, another to KPN and their
customers,...

• Full TINA platform with all the reference points
  specifications/code, objects,...
• The stability of the platform amazed RD.
• Services spanned the entire space from e-content
  to broadband content delivery added value on top
  of ADSL, ATM service managt, ...
• Most visitors were more impressed by the TINA
  demo than by the services demo!
• Soft transition to the 3G Mobile MM Application
  Server in the same RD team.

Alcatel Mu3S reuse in MMAS The TINA Session model

• Mu3S relies on the TINA session model
• 3 alternative DPE were built -gt terminals

A TINA Success Story (Telecom Service Access
Subscription) OMG TSAS

• Most of the specification is based on TINA specs

Restructured and simplified
aligned with Parlay 2.0 specs.

• It is used in Industrial 3G Mobile Core Network
  nodes, like Alcatel MMCS and MMAS

Next TINA Success Story OSA 99 (Open Service
architecture)

• A 3G Mobile standard by 3GPP,ETSI SPAN12, ITU-T
• OSA for UMTS release 99 has been finished and
  approved work is ongoing for R 2000
• It is based on the OMG TSAS

• It is used in Industrial 3G Mobile Core Network

Conclusion TINA for next years

• The TINA techno arrived before its time
• Corba was not mature
• the Internet based interfaces force was
  underestimated
• If the original goal was too ambitious (one
  computing model all across the net), the
  application to the Service level is now granted
• Network abstract model, TINA simplified in OSA
• to become more distributed (SIP like) than Call
  centric (OSA like)
• The model will live
• QoS in IP should resurrect stream binding notions
• Open frameworks to feed a community of 3rd party
  services is a neverending fashion!
• Above all, TINA Core teamers are a network of
  HIGH POTENTIAL PEOPLE in our companies
