based on a TINA platform Providing the Telecommunications Industry with Next Generation Intelligent Service Solutions for Network Convergence based on a TINA platform Kim Olesen, VP of Strategic Partnerships, Infitel International N.V. September 14th 2000, TINA-C Conference Paris

The TINA Advantage Open standards based Application Server Architecture Infitel was looking for a new, better way to implement a Telco Application Server Should be based on open standards Should be based on experiences with IN and Telecommunication services Should use OO techniques and support distributed solutions Should allow implementation of real-time and fault tolerant behaviour We are glad to see that TINA concepts continue to „live“ in 3G, Parlay and OMG work
