Abstract:
Corp of Signals plays an important role in the
establishment/management of secure and reliable communication network
within Pak Army. With the recent break through by acquiring most
sophisticated communication infra structure, there is a dire need to
optimally/efficiently utilize the resources. Keeping in view this scenario, a
system is proposed to meet such requirements, that accepts and checks the
format of the string entered by the subscriber from telephone pad, checks the
duplication of number booked, priority of number, and rank status of the
subscriber. The systems saves the number booked in the database in the
respective logical priority queues and communicate the booking number to the
subscriber and the same information is displayed on the screen as well. The
system is designed to scan all the logical priority queues automatically after
every 5 seconds and the number awaiting will be flashed for the operator’s
attention to connect the call. Two separate modules are designed to handle the
booking of number and scanning of the database for the awaiting calls, and are
scheduled in such a way that each module will be running in parallel and
independent to each other.
The proposed work is a research oriented and learning based in which a
prototype system design has been developed to meet the above mentioned
requirements. The proposed project provides subscriber’s satisfaction and
eliminates the chances of operator’s level manipulation to the minimum, the
call’s record management and updating is dealt by the database automatically
for the future references. No such study or work has been carried out
previously neither the field of Telephony API has yet been explored in any of
the previous studies. For the development of the system Visual C++ is used as
ii
front-end tool, where as MS Access and Telephony API works in the
background.
