Method and apparatus for delivering calling services
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A call processor operable to deliver calling services to callers, comprising:
- a service creation environment for generating call processing instructions;
a memory accessible by the service creation environment, the memory including a service logic table in which the call processing instructions are stored;
a central processor including a service logic executive with access to the service logic table operable to execute the call processing instructions; and
a communications link allowing transmission of a data package to the call processor, whereby the service logic executive accesses the service logic table and executes the call processing instructions responsive to the data package to deliver the calling services.

Abstract
A call processor (49) contains a service node/intelligent peripheral service creation environment (58) to create a service logic table (56) to store call processing instructions. A service logic executive (54) accesses the service logic table (56) and executes the call processing instructions in response to a received data package. Call processor (49) can operate in slave mode to provide call processing resources to a service control point or in autonomous mode to deliver a specific calling service, such as voice mail.

12. A call processing system operable to deliver calling services to callers, comprising:
-
a communications link allowing transmission of a data package; a call processor connected to the communications link, the call processor including a service creation environment for generating call processing instructions, the call processor operable to receive the data package and to execute at least some of the call processing instructions to autonomously deliver calling services; and a service control point in communication with the call processor, the call processor providing call processing resources to the service control point. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A method for delivering calling services to a caller, comprising:
-
storing a first set of call processing instructions operable to provide call processing resources to a service control point; storing a second set of call processing instructions operable to deliver a calling service independent of the service control point; receiving a data package; executing the first set of call processing instructions in response to the data package requesting resources be provided to a service control point; and executing the second set of call processing instructions in response to the date package requesting delivery of a calling service independent of the service control point. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21)

22. A call processing architecture operable to deliver calling services to callers, comprising:
-
a call processor executing a service logic table generated by a service creation environment; a plurality of external information sources; and a plurality of servers connecting the call processor to the plurality of external information sources and providing information to the call processor for delivering a calling service, the servers operating independently from the call processor and reconfigurable without affecting the functionality of the call processor. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24)
