Abstract
A telecommunication network includes a number of switches interconnected by groups of trunk circuits. Trunk traffic data is generated by the switches and transmitted to a network control center where it is stored in a traffic database. The network control center includes a system for mechanically generating periodic traffic reports and performing calculations leading to recommendations pertaining to additions or deletions of the number of trunks in a group necessary to maintain an optimum size network.
