1. A method for developing a telecommunication application for performing call-processing functions, in a programmable telecommunications switch controlled by software having a layer model architecture and said switch also having an associated storage device, the method comprising the steps of:

  • (a) defining a plurality of logical states, each one of said logical states representing a valid state of an associated telecommunication channel;

    (b) defining at least one event for each of said logical states, each said event representing a valid condition for causing a transition from one of said logical states to a different one of said logical states;

    (c) selecting one or more functions from a layer-dependent library of predetermined functions; and

    (d) associating said selected one or more functions with one or more of said logical states, whereby upon a transition into the associated state, said selected one or more functions are performed.
