Architecture for Location Based Application of Third Generation Operation Support Systems The AlbatrOSS (Architecture for Location Based Application of Third geneRation Operation Support Systems) project commenced in March 2002. The TSSG initiated the project proposal and fulfils the roles of project co-ordinator and project manager. The key objectives of the project are to specify an innovative 3rd generation operations support system architecture applicable to an open 3G Mobile telecommunications environment and develop a set of OSS building blocks to support rapid creation, provisioning and maintenance of mobile Internet services. It is further proposed that the project will validate the architecture and building blocks through the operation of two sets of UMTS trials. The project partners responsible for meeting these objectives are: FOKUS, Atos Origin, LAKE Communications, Telenica I+D, T-Systems Nova and UH Communications.
