Abstract
A method of processing a model of a telecommunications network, the telecommunications network. The method includes dividing the network elements of the telecommunications network into a plurality of different groups, for a first of the group of network elements being modelled, loading computer program code representing the group of network elements being modelled into the computer memory and executing the computer program to model the first group of network elements within a first time period. For a subsequent time period the first group of network elements is represented by the amount of network services consumed on the one or more interfaces with the second group of network elements determined within the first time period, while loading into the computer memory computer program code to model the second group of network elements. In this way, an improvement in modelling telecommunications networks is provided by dividing each of the component parts of the telecommunications network into groups, and handling these groups on a cyclic basic.
