ACE*COMM will be highlighting the following applications in Booth #450 at the Venetian Hotel and Convention Center:

--Revenue Assurance - Includes data validation In computer science, data validation is the process of ensuring that a program operates on clean, correct and useful data. It uses routines, often called validation rules, that check for correctness or meaningfulness of data that are input to the system. , data repair, automatic and manual data correction, inter-carrier accounting, customer profiling, credit limit checks, and performance management.

--Real-time Rating - Assigns price components to each network transaction as they occur. This information is used to support real-time financial monitoring of the network, and can be used to feed real-time billing engines, focused on the partner interconnection and settlements, as well as wholesale and resale markets. This information can further be used to generate a variety of constantly updated financial reports, as well as to supplement traditional traffic and engineering reports with a financial perspective.

--Real-time Costing - Assigns cost components to each network transaction as they occur. This information is similar to the price components, but identifies costs to the carrier. Together with the pricing components, financial reports can be enhanced to provide revenue and cost, as well as margin analysis for all transactions. This information enables low-cost routing and a profitability analysis of both the network as a whole, and the more granular levels of the network that are focused on the customer and the service.

--Real-time Charging - Allows for billing based on data volume, QoS, duration, and location; enables more efficient use of network capacity; includes collection, intermediate storage, as well as transfer, consolidation, pre-processing, and filtering of call detail records (CDRs).

ACE*COMM's suite of OSS solutions allows service providers to rapidly deploy new services for their subscribers; provide billing and customer care for multiple products, services and events; and overcome the challenges of next-generation service delivery while maximizing revenues.
