Abstract

A development tool for creating telecommunication subscriber services or other operations. The tool reads a subscriber service logic diagram containing function primitives which define the service and creates data structures containing text descriptions of primitive operation and parameters pertaining thereto. The tool then examines the data structures and determines the appropriate text descriptions for the function primitives and corresponding parameters, based upon parameter values assigned by a user in creating the subscriber service logic diagram. The tool also validates parameters against available constraints. The text descriptions are then ported into the subscriber service logic diagram, thereby clarifying the operation of the subscriber service defined by the logic diagram.
