The document proposes training on the Business Process Framework (eTOM) which is part of the TM Forum Frameworx, a suite of best practices and standards that provides a blueprint for effective and efficient business operations; the training will provide an understanding of how to rationalize business processes using a common framework and identify opportunities for improvement like reduced costs and increased efficiency; attendees will learn about the different levels of the Business Process Framework and how it can be used to scope projects, enable partnerships and assess impacts of changes.
This document discusses how virtualization is bringing radical changes to telecommunications and driving the need for OSS/BSS (operations support systems/business support systems) to adapt. Virtualization impacts both the realization and functionality of OSS systems. It also requires more agile development processes, partnering approaches, and standards. Future OSS/BSS must support multi-partner business models, agile integration across vendors, and a hybrid virtualized/non-virtualized environment through changes to technical capabilities, methodology, and deployment strategies. Recent TM Forum studies examine these impacts of virtualization on areas like policy management, service level agreements, security, and orchestration.

Telecom Billing Solutions By Sohag SarkarSohag Sarkar
This document provides an overview of telecom billing solutions. It discusses the evolution of billing systems from in-house developed systems in the 1980s to more complex third-party solutions today. The general billing process is described involving collecting call detail records from the network, rating calls according to customer plans, aggregating rated calls into invoices, and generating bills. The key components of a billing system including mediation, rating, and invoicing engines are explained. Finally, the document outlines the major functions performed by rating engines in processing usage records and preparing them for invoicing.
Software Engineering: Designing a Better Experience for Communications, Media...Cognizant
Software makes the world go ‘round, from hyperefficient business operations to users wowed by the newest app interface and digital products. For CMT companies, software development innovation is the key not only to enhancing business agility but to rapidly designing and offering extraordinary experiences and cutting-edge products that will continually satisfy and delight customers.
SOA can provide benefits to banks such as increased agility, flexibility, and the ability to more easily make changes and additions to their systems. It allows banks to break down traditional silos and design systems around customer workflows. Wells Fargo has seen significant cost savings and productivity gains through the reuse of services across different parts of their business with SOA. Deutsche Bank also experiences reduced development time and higher quality services through reuse with SOA.
How Domain-Driven Design Can Boost Legacy System ModernizationCognizant
Domain-driven design (DDD) principles can help modernize legacy systems by transforming monolithic architectures into domain-centric microservices. This allows incremental modernization while maintaining business alignment. The document outlines a 7-step framework using DDD to progressively modernize a legacy material ordering system at Kvaerner by: 1) decomposing domains, 2) identifying user personas, 3) designing bounded contexts, 4) forming domain services, 5) weaving persona-based apps, 6) synchronizing with the legacy system, and 7) retiring transformed modules. This framework provides a structured approach to modernization while delivering continuous business value.
The document discusses the future of enterprise architecture and presents different perspectives on its role and focus. It outlines two contrasting agendas for EA - simplifying and unifying systems to align with business needs, or differentiating and integrating systems to help manage business complexity. The document also proposes a third agenda focusing on managing complexity by looking at the enterprise as part of a broader ecosystem and considering customers' economics of alignment.
The document discusses the evolution of Energy Trading and Risk Management (ETRM) systems over the past 20 years. It highlights how newer ETRM solutions focus more on system architecture and design compared to older solutions. The document then summarizes Contigo's approach to ETRM system design, which emphasizes principles like modularity, integration capabilities, and a time-series data architecture to enable rapid implementation and flexibility.
McHenry whitepaper trc as asp recordkeeping serviceCraig Burma
The document summarizes McHenry Consulting Group's research into retirement plan administration technologies. It discusses trends driving changes in the industry and evaluates different technology models. McHenry believes the Application Service Provider (ASP) model, where recordkeepers subscribe to hosted software solutions, will be most successful. The document presents Milliman USA's Technology Resource Center as a case study of an ASP provider that offers efficient, scalable solutions through a shared services model.
The document summarizes a Forrester report evaluating 11 leading business process management (BPM) suite vendors. The report finds that Pegasystems and Appian lead in offering the best combination of features for business and technical roles driving process improvement. IBM, Software AG, and Savvion are also leaders. Oracle, Global 360, HandySoft, and Fujitsu are strong performers. The economic downturn increased demand for BPM suites to boost productivity and efficiency. Recent consolidation in the BPM market has pushed suites to a new level of maturity, giving businesses more options while combining process, rules, and events capabilities.
The document discusses the rise of the internal outsourcer model for IT organizations. As technology commoditizes and outsourcing alternatives increase, IT must shift from maintaining technology to creating business value. To adapt, IT will take on characteristics of an internal service provider like focusing on value over costs, simplifying infrastructure, making strategic sourcing decisions, and developing capabilities to deliver services. Internal outsourcers act as brokers managing both internal and external services across the enterprise's value network.
Deep Support for SOA in EA Frameworks & Meta ModelsGraham McLeod
SOA is a desirable goal for all it promises, but is seldom addressed at a fundamental level. This presentation discusses how to embed services in thinking, planning and EA disciplines via extended Meta Models and Frameworks.
Salesforce.com is a global cloud computing company that provides customer relationship management software and platforms. It uses cloud computing through software as a service (SaaS) and platform as a service (PaaS) models. Some challenges it faces include increased competition from traditional companies and new entrants replicating its model, expanding its business areas, and ensuring constant system availability. Depending on costs, integration needs, and performance requirements, companies could potentially run their entire operations using Salesforce's offerings like Sales Cloud, Service Cloud, and applications on the AppExchange.
Reference Model for ISEB Certificates in Enterprise and Solution ArchitectureAryashree Pritikrishna
This document is a reference model that defines terms used in ISEB examinations for enterprise and solution architecture. It structures architecture concepts into foundation, intermediate, and practitioner levels. The reference model covers multiple architecture domains including business, data, applications, software, infrastructure, and architecture management. It provides definitions for key architecture terms and concepts to help examiners, examinees, and training providers.
Rapid evolution of information technology has contributed to the evolution of more sophisticated Ecommerce
system with the better transaction time and protection. The currently used E-commerce models
lack in quality properties such as logical security because of their poor designing and to face the highly
equipped and trained intruders. This editorial proposed a security framework for small and medium sized
E-commerce, based on service oriented architecture and gives an analysis of the eminent security attacks
which can be averted. The proposed security framework will be implemented and validated on an open
source E-commerce, and the results achieved so far are also presented.
Building Value Through Enterprise Architecturedfnewman
This document provides contact information for various Booz & Company consultants located around the world who specialize in enterprise architecture. It then discusses the key findings of a Booz & Company study on how enterprise architecture maturity impacts business value. The study found that organizations with higher EA maturity captured more business value in terms of reduced costs, complexity, risk and increased agility. It also found that the relationship between maturity and value is linked, with more mature organizations capturing value across more areas. The document provides examples of how specific organizations captured various types of value from their EA programs.
The document discusses a joint whitepaper from several major IT vendors that outlines a proposed common interface for configuration management database (CMDB) products to facilitate data federation. The whitepaper proposes services for CMDB administration, resource federation and reconciliation, resource querying, and subscription/notification to address key challenges around connecting diverse management data sources. While this cooperation is promising, open standards will be important to ensure interoperability and avoid vendor lock-in.
The document discusses the transition from the traditional workplace to the workplace of the future. It notes that the traditional model, with fixed employee locations and devices, is being replaced by a more flexible model where employees expect to access the same digital services as in their personal lives. This transition is driven by trends like consumerization, mobility, cloud computing and big data. It will require organizations to adopt a more user-centric IT model and will change how IT departments procure and support infrastructure to prioritize end user needs and experiences. Barriers include lack of support and change resistance, while benefits include cost reductions, flexibility and improved employee productivity and satisfaction.
Business Process Management (BPM) has received increased attention recently, as many organizations view automation as a quick way to reduce costs. In fact, the principal benefits of BPM come from its improvement of process effectiveness, not through reduced headcount. To achieve these benefits, the organization must adopt a staged approach to BPM, proceeding through five steps:
•Identify key target processes for BPM implementation.
•Document processes using standard process notation.
•Refine by reshaping processes to improve effectiveness.
•Automate processes to increase effectiveness, consistency, and efficiency.
•Control processes by monitoring to avoid business issues.
While the stages remain the same from company to company, Info-Tech encourages organizations to choose from three implementation plans that reflect an increasing scale of investment. Use the tools that accompany the set to choose the plan that best matches your organizational and process characteristics.
The document summarizes key points from a Gartner report on industrial IoT:
1) The number of IoT use cases is growing rapidly but few have achieved widespread adoption, and the market remains fragmented with many players.
2) Most IoT initiatives are still in pilot stages due to challenges integrating technologies and skills from IT and operational systems.
3) Standards like NB-IoT are expected to emerge as leaders in connecting devices via low-power wide-area networks.
4) Open ecosystems and partnerships will be important to unlocking innovation as no single player has full expertise across the IoT value chain.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
