Marc Lambert · AT&T Technical Journal · 1994
The contract for a Belgian Integrated-Network Operations Center (BINOC) was signed in 1991. It was then the largest-ever operations systems (OS) contract for AT&T in the international market. This paper describes both the requirements for the BINOC project and the network of the customer, the Belgian telecommunications operator BELGACOM. After reviewing the architecture of the BINOC, the various systems involved are described. Some recommendations for the globalization of AT&T products are also discussed.
