AIN: Advanced Intelligent Networks
Advanced Intelligent Network(AIN) is a telephone network architecture that separates service logic from switching equipment, allowing new services to be added without having to redesign switches to support new services. It encourages competition among service providers since it makes it easier for a provider to add services and offers customers more service choices. Developed by Bell Communications Research(Bellcore, now Telcordia), AIN is recognized as a telecom industry standard in North America.
