Abstract :
This paper assesses the extent to which such tools affect the operations of businesses within the service provisioning area, and speculates on the continued development away from traditional programming methods. It concentrates on the way in which use of a proprietary Unix-based graphical service creation and management tool, hosted on a pair of Sun workstations, has revolutionised development of services in-house. The potential implications for operators and service providers are drawn out
