This paper describes the design, implementation, and application examples of PLATINA, a distributed processing platform for telecommunication software. PLATINA is based on the distributed concurrent object-oriented paradigm. This enhances the transportability and extensibility of the telecommunication software on distributed telecommunication nodes and provides high performance with little increase in execution overhead. We can easily implement enhanced telecommunication services, which utilize high-speed and wide-band networks and satisfy the various requirements for the services, by cooperative execution of objects distributed over the nodes with PLATINA. PLATINA provides test facilities suitable for the distributed objects and allows easy testing of enhanced telecommunication service software. © 1997 Scripta Technica, Inc.
