Abstract
A service gateway (42) includes one or more network adapters (62), configured to capture signaling messages in respective communication networks (28, 50, 56) and to process the signaling messages to generate network signaling primitives indicative of network events in a network-independent format. A call processor (60) is coupled to receive and process the signaling primitives from the network adapters so as to generate service requests for processing by one or more application servers (44, 48, 58), and to receive and process service instructions from the application servers in response to the service requests so as to generate network instruction primitives to the one or more network adapters, causing the network adapters to convey signaling instructions to the respective networks.
