Application model

An application is a consumer's view on system capability provided by a software vendor as a deployed set of components. The functionality offered by an application can be described narratively and visually as well as specified rigorously using a programming language.The TeleManagement Forum (TMF) NGOSS program is creating a Telecom Applications Map (TAM) model that describes and categorizes BSS and OSS applications typical used by service providers to manage communications networks and infrastructure.Presently, the TAM is a set of descriptions of categories of application capability organized using the TMF NGOSS domains - Market/Sales, Product, Customer, Service, Resource, Supplier/Partner, Enterprise and Integration Infrastructure.
