Abstract

It has become necessary with the ever-increasingvolume of billing data generated by thetelecommunications industry to revisit the whole area ofbilling data collection, starting with Automatic Message Accounting (AMA) data, and evolving to thefuture sources of charging data. The Automatic MessageAccounting Data Networking System (AMADNS) supports thecollection, processing, transfer, and management of AMA data from Generating Systems such ascentral office switches to an array of applications.AMADNS systems must be well-structured and flexible inways that will support future generating systems as they are integrated into the various differentnetworks being created within the telecommunicationsindustry. This paper presents an introduction to thegeneric requirements for AMADNS as presented in Bellcore Generic Requirements for the AutomaticMessage Accounting Data Networking System (AMADNS),Issue 1, Bellcore document GR-1343-CORE.
