Purpose This Practice (BR) is a consolidation of the data in three BRs that were discontinued 1 in 1998: • BR 751-100-115, COMMON LANGUAGE® Interexchange Access Customer (IAC) Codes • BR 751-100-110, COMMON LANGUAGE® Exchange Carrier Names • BR 751-100-175, COMMON LANGUAGE® Bellcore and Regional Holding Company Codes. It is important to note that the three code sets continue to remain separate and different from each other. The intent of this document is to put all codes that represent company names in one place for ease of use by the user. This BR contains the standard codes for the representation of Incumbent Local Exchange Carriers, Competitive Local Exchange Carriers, Interexchange Carriers, Resellers, Wireless Services Providers, Enhanced Service Providers, Telecommunications Billing and/or Processing Companies, Competitive Access Providers, Regional Holding Companies and any other type of company that is part of the telecommunications industry. 2. Scope The codes in this BR are used by the following types of organizations: Network Distribution, Switching Operations, Financial/Comptrollers and Regulatory/ External Affairs. They are particularly applicable to the following operations: Ordering, Circuit Provisioning, Billing and Bill Verification. Two important uses of these codes are interfacing between companies and achieving flow-through. These codes serve as a trigger to get an order moving through the process in most companies. 3. Reason for Issue This BR is issued to combine the company name code sets into one place and to reflect all standard codes in all categories that have been assigned up to the publication of this document. 4. General Direct questions concerning this Practice to the General Codes Code Set Subject Matter Expert, Language Standards Department, Telcordia. Telcordia Technologies, Inc. Proprietary — Internal Use Only See proprietary restrictions on title page. 9 BR-751-100-112 TSP IAC Codes, EC Names, Company Codes - Telcordia and Regions Issue 2 IAC Codes April 1999 The Telcordia Language Standards Department provides the technical expertise to maintain the General Codes Code Set of which these codes are a part. The COMMON LANGUAGE Technical Advisory Group (TAG) contributes to this process in accordance with the procedures outlined in BR 751-000-102, COMMON LANGUAGE® Code Set Request Procedures. 5. IAC Codes IAC formerly stood for Interexchange Access Customer. As changes have occurred in the telecommunications industry, the words “Interexchange” and “Access” became confusing to users of these codes. The COMMON LANGUAGE Technical 5 Advisory Group recognized this dilemma and made the decision to refer to these codes as IAC codes. An IAC is a telecommunications or information provider who may be classified as any of the functional entities listed in the Purpose section above. IAC codes are assigned to these companies by Telcordia as the maintenance agent for ANSI T1.251. The attempt is made to make the codes mnemonic when such a code is available and not already assigned. The code is made up of three alphabetic characters. One code per company is assigned. Separate codes are not assigned for different functions of a company. If it is necessary to define a function of a company, it is done in other ways, e.g., with the use of Field Identifiers on a Service Order. (A given company may be assigned one IAC code as well as one Exchange Carrier Name code. The requirement for which code is needed is determined by the companies with whom the company does business, i.e., some companies require a three-character code for their processes and some companies require a four- character code.) When mergers, acquisitions or buyouts occur, the Telcordia COMMON LANGUAGE General Codes Chairperson should be informed so that the code(s) will reflect the way the “new” company is doing business. Telcordia works with each company to determine the best way for the change in structure to be represented, i.e., name change on existing code, referencing several existing codes to now use one overall code etc. The codes are used by work groups with functions listed in the Scope section above. Codes that begin with the letter Z are for local assignment and use. (There are a few exceptions to this rule as five Z codes have been assigned over the years as standard codes.) A company may have internal reasons for wanting to track various items through their processes and these codes can be the vehicle. There may also be reason during a trial or test of a new system or service to use these codes. They could also be used locally for other functions. Each company assigns their own Z codes if they have a need. They keep track of the meaning of the codes within their Telcordia Technologies, Inc.

    Ericsson to Host Multimedia Services for Cellular One from Dobson Cellular Systems in the US

    Press Release September 18, 2007 Ericsson to host multimedia services for Cellular One from Dobson Cellular Systems in the US Cellular One from Dobson Cellular Systems, a subsidiary of Dobson Communications Corporation (NASDAQ:DCEL) and Ericsson (NASDAQ:ERIC), the world’s leading telecommunications supplier, today announced they have signed two contracts for hosted multimedia services: AnswerTunes, a ringback tones service and content downloads. The new service AnswerTunes allows Dobson customers in more than 70 wireless markets to choose from a catalog of thousands of songs to replace the traditional ring heard by callers when they dial a number. On top of that they will also have access to a huge catalogue of content, including ringtones, games, images and video clips to download to their phones. The contracts are the third and fourth managed services hosting contracts Ericsson has been awarded by Dobson Cellular Systems since 2006. Ericsson also provides Dobson with a hosted prepaid real time charging service including content and game downloads as well as Napster Mobile. The ringback tones service will be hosted on Ericsson’s innovative Service Delivery Platform (SDP). Thomas K. Roberts, Chief Marketing Officer for Cellular One, says: “We are pleased to partner with Ericsson to deliver AnswerTunes and downloadable content to our customer base. Offering subscribers a wide array of value-added services has been a key differentiator for Cellular One.” Ericsson is providing an end-to-end ringback service, which includes systems integration, hosting and managing the day-to-day operations of the service. Angel Ruiz, President of Ericsson in North America, says: “Cellular One is a leader in the North American market, taking advantage of hosted and managed services to quickly and cost effectively deliver new offerings and capabilities to subscribers.

It specifically develops a communications perspective on spatial structure in the Vancouver, B.C., metropolitan area by examination of one communication variable, telephone traffic. Origin-destination calling data are used to identify communication networks, suggest functional associations, and relate social area structure to communicative (interactive) behaviour. A further purpose is to employ the above findings in developing suggestions as to possible imports of future communication technologies.

Abstract—There is a growing trend in the power utility Time-division multiplexing (TDM) has been widely adopted industry to move away from traditional synchronous optical across the power utility industry as the preferred WAN network/synchronous digital hierarchy (SONET/SDH) systems transport technology because it provides low-latency, for wide-area network (WAN) communications. Information technology (IT) teams and equipment manufacturers are deterministic, and minimal-asymmetry performance.
