MAP User's Guide

Version: 1.0

Authors: Vance Shipley (vances@motivity.ca).

The MAP application is a protocol stack implementation of the Mobile Application Part procedures.

Application

Requirements

This application includes only the MAP procedures and must be used with a seperate application providing the TCAP service. The tcap application may be used in conjunction with the sccp and nms applications for a complete system.

Process Communication

Figure 1-1 depicts the message paths between processes.

Modules

`map`

This library module implements the user API for the application.

`map_sup`

This supervisor behaviour callback module implements the top level supervisor for the application.

`map_load_fsm`

This gen_fsm behaviour callback module implements the load control process.

`map_sap_sup`

This supervisor behaviour callback module implements the service access point (SAP) supervisors.

`map_pm_sup`

This supervisor behaviour callback module implements the protocol machine (PM) supervisors.

`map_dsm_dsm`

This gen_fsm behaviour callback module implements the dialogue state machines (DSM).

`map_psm_fsm`

This gen_fsm behaviour callback module implements the performing state machines (PSM).

`map_rsm_fsm`

This gen_fsm behaviour callback module implements the requesting state machines (RSM).

Supervision Tree

The processes which make up the MAP application are all instantiated under a single supervisor. Figure 1-2 shows the structure of the supervision tree.
