Fully flexible routing system
First Claim
1. A service control system comprising:
- a routing database;
a plurality of service logic programs; and
a routing engine operable to receive current feature identifying information, and operable to invoke at least one of the service logic programs corresponding to the current feature identifying information, and operable to access the routing database to determine next feature identifying information, and operable to invoke at least one of the service logic programs corresponding to the next feature identifying information.

Abstract
A telecommunications network with fully flexibly routing is disclosed. The telecommunications network (100) includes switching systems (112, 114) and a service control system (104) that controls at least one of the switching systems. The service control system (104) includes a routing database (150), a plurality of service logic programs and a routing engine (140). The routing engine (140) receives current feature identifying information and invokes at least one of the service logic programs corresponding to the current feature identifying information. The routing engine (140) accesses the routing database (150) to determine next feature identifying information and invokes at least one of the service logic programs corresponding to the next feature identifying information. The telecommunications network may implement a customized routing scheme without the need to design and deploy customized service logic programs.
