Just a brief mention of an interesting and well-written journal article which will ikely be of interest to many readers of this newsgroup: "The Intelligent Network-Changing the Face of Telecommunications" by Richard B. Robrock II of Bellcore in "Proceedings of the IEEE", Vol. 79, Number 1, January 1991. The title does not do it justice ... it contains a nice historical perspective on common channel signalling (CCS6 & CCS7), 800 services, CLASS, etc. while providing an abundant amount of technical detail and an excellent list of references. "Proceedings of the IEEE" should be available in any well-stocked college/ university library (associated with a school offering classes/coursework related to EE or the like) not to mention many technically-oriented company libraries. I'm sure you could also order a reprint from the IEEE, if necessary. M. R. Baker AT&T Bell Labs, Holmdel homxc!jj1028 -or- jj1028 at homxc.att.com
