Title: IOBAS – Testing of the ParsersBrief: This project was related to Testing of Parsers. In this, Parsers which were developed in Stage1 (Parsers –

Whenever any new switch is added to any exchange, like Nokia, Ericsson, Alcatel, Axe, etc we had to develop parsers which converted binary data coming from the switches to the ASCII-readable format according to the requirements of the Client). The Switches generate CDRs (Call Detail Records which contain all details pertaining to a particular Call). Test Cases were designed & accordingly call scenarios were assigned to each case & the Parsers were evaluated according to required standards (ISO standards) BO - Supply & Procurement, Inventory, Financial, Fixed Assets & CSSD. Worked on C, C++, UNIX, Oracle, Diamond, Streamer, Inca, etc.

Title: IOBAS (Inter Operator Billing Accounting System)Brief: Studied functional Requirements. Creation of Technical design based on functional requirements.

Implementation of Technical Designs (Analysis, Design, Coding, Testing). Developed Parsers. Undertook System Engineering & Enhancements.
