The paper presents an on-line software modification technique for use in office data provisioning in the Non-stop Service Enhancible Software (NOSES) system. High reliability and high software-maintainability needed for coping quickly and effectively with diverse customer demands related to system extension. The principal technique is the generation, modification, addition or deletion of office data related to the provision of physical components or logical resources in the executing system file. As an on-line partial program updating technique within the framework of the object oriented paradigm, mechanisms and operation procedure based on TMN are addressed in detail. These technologies are expected to be a basis for quick service provisioning in intelligent networks as well as in transport networks.
