Amdocs Acquisitions
1 In August 2006, Amdocs purchased Cramer Systems, a Bath, UK based company that
provides OSS (Operations Support Systems) "solutions" to telecom operators. The
acquisition was reported at US$375 million. This allowed Amdocs to become one of very few companies claiming to offer a complete
BSS/OSS product suite. Cramer Systems, combined with existing Amdocs OSS
software groups, is now the OSS Division.

OS/2 - 2001: Fading out
1 Also, OS/2 was used for the host PC used to control the Public Radio
Satellite System|Satellite Operations Support System equipment installed at National Public Radio|NPR member stations from 1994 to 2007, and used
to receive the network's programming via satellite.

OS/2 - Historical uses
1 OS/2 was used as part of the Satellite Operations Support System (SOSS) for
National Public Radio|NPR's Public Radio Satellite System. SOSS was a computer-controlled system using OS/2 that NPR
member stations used to receive programming feeds via satellite. SOSS was introduced in 1994 using OS/2 3.0, and was retired in 2007, when NPR switched over to
its successor, the Public Radio Satellite System#ContentDepot|ContentDepot.

Service delivery platform - Relationship to SOA
1 SOAs can be used as an application integration technology within an SDP but are best served when used in the lower
performance functions such as connections between the transactional Operations
support system|OSS and Business support system|BSS applications and the SDP. SOAs
need careful consideration if they are to meet the real time demands placed on the SDP by the converged event type services.

1 In centralized SON (C-SON), function are more typically concentrated closer to higher-
order network nodes or the network Operations support system|OSS, to allow a broader overview of more edge elements
and coordination of e.g. load across a wide geographic area. Due to the need to inter-
work with cells supplied by different equipment vendors, C-SON systems are
more typically supplied by 3rd parties like Celcite, Gladiator-Innovations or Cisco.
