Abstract

Abstract The present invention relates to a method and a system for reserving and allocating a plurality of competing demands for an ordered by communications network in response to a plurality of demands from a source. The network includes a plurality of customer sites, each site including one or more endpoints. Each endpoint is connectable to a switching system. The switching system is connectable to one or more other switching systems. A unit is providedfor connecting a first endpoint through the one or more switching systems to a second endpoint. The improvement with respect to the method is comprised of the steps of receiving demands from a customer site for allocating the network for acommunications among a plurality of customer sites; stratifying the received demands in response to a grouping of endpoints to be conferenced at the customersites and allocating the network resources to connect the endpoints to be conferenced in response to the stratified demand. The method includes generatingsetup and terminate times for each endpoint to be connected in a conference;
reserving the endpoints to be connected in the conference; and generating a plurality of bindings for signalling the network and the source as to success ofconnecting the endpoints to be conferenced over the ordered bus network. The improved system includes a unit for receiving demands from a customer site for allocating the network for a communication among a plurality of customer sites; a unit for stratifying the received demands in response to a grouping of endpoints to be conferenced at the customer sites and a unit for allocating the network resources to connect the endpoints to be conferenced in response to the stratified demand. The system includes a unit for generating setup and terminate time for each endpoint to be connected in a conference; a unit for reserving the endpoints to be connected in the conference and a unit for generating a plurality of bindings for signalling the network and the source as to success of connecting the endpoints to be conferenced over the ordered bus network.
