In this paper, we report on the results of performance measurements for an integrated B-ISDN I Intelligent Network signaling networkThe specification, implementation and realization as well as the performance measurements are all part of a European project named INSIGNIA. The results reported in this paper pertain to the signaling system built in the second trial of the project and pertain to one of the demonstrated services: the Interactive Multimedia Retrieval service. In the performance analysis, the results are presented with different 'perspectives', each serving a different purpose. For instance, the 'message processing' perspective which helps implementers to optimize the systems and provides parameter values for performance modeling. The 'service procedure' perspective takes a more service oriented view which helps in evaluating the service and gives a clear view of the contribution of each physical entity involved in the provisioning of the service.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
