COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 17, 2004--Intelliden Corporation, the intelligent networking company, today announced that its chief strategy officer, John Strassner, is scheduled to conduct several sessions during TeleManagement Forum's TeleManagement World held May 17-20, 2004, in Nice, France.
 
...Tuesday, May 18, 3:30 p.m. -- Making NGOSS Autonomic -- Strassner will co-chair a case study and panel discussion with Kevin Twardus of IBM Corporation. This session will provide a brief overview of autonomic software and explain how the evolution of NGOSS policy and contract models -- along with the TM Forum's Telecom Operations Map (eTOM) and SID concepts -- can support autonomic computing. Examples of autonomic behavior, including spontaneously combining and morphing the functionality of resources and services to meet the changing needs of the environment, will be discussed. Case studies of the definition, application and implementation of state-of-the-art research and practical applications will demonstrate how NGOSS can evolve to support autonomic computing.
