  2. CiTR’s DECADE Strategy • DECADE vision • integrated electronic customer access • independent of the UI technology • independent of the application domains • DECADE Environment • Many UI Technologies • Isolated Business Logic • Many Implementation Technologies - 2 -

  3. Internet Billing Application • Call Preview - First telecommunications internet billing application in Australia • Allow customers to access bill details via a Web Browser • Call Preview developed using DECADE • System must be able to eventually support up to 1000 concurrent users • ECA adds value to basic Call Preview service - 3 -

  4. Computing Architecture Web Browser Firewall (ITP) Call Preview FLEXCAB/MICA R/E - 4 -

  5. Service Architecture • Based on TINA’s Service Architecture • Core Components • User Agent • Login Manager • Combined Service Session Manager • Service Factory - 5 -

  6. Meeting Scalability Requirements (1) • Scalability addressed by Computing Architecture and Service Architecture • 3 tier architecture - 6 -

  7. Meeting Scalability Requirements (2) • Cluster Management • Cluster • Cluster Container • Cluster Factory • Implemented in computing architecture • Limits inter process communication • Minimises resource leaks - 7 -

  8. Meeting Response-time Requirements • Generating HTML pages on-the-fly • Thin clients - no processing done on client box • New functionality and services available immediately • CORBA platform under load - 8 -

  9. Deployment • Interfacing to systems • Web Servers • Firewalls (routers and Security constraints) • Backend Databases • Orbs • System Requirements • network setup • common environment from Test to Production - 9 -

  10. What we Learnt • Requirement for “shakeout” period • Integration “not easy” • Real user testing required, not just automated tools • GUIs with C++ not quick fixes - maybe Java would have been easier?? • CORBA Servers need to be VERY robust in a high use environment • Customers are usually BIG organisations, which affects the turnaround time for problems - 10 -

  11. Future Work • Additional user functionality • CSV export • Enhanced sorting and filtering • Web based reporting for CSRs • how many customers accessing certain • usage of functions • Improve ability to change GUI characteristics quickly • for enhancement • for new clients! - 11 -

  12. Conclusion • Internet application provided within short timeframe • Understanding of the types of architectures required for similar applications • Implementation of DECADE architecture • Experiences learnt interfacing with one of Australia’s largest companies - 12 -
