Abstract
A call processor (49) contains a service node (48) and an intelligent peripheral (42) for performing calling services requested by a telephone network service control point (24). If service control point (24) requests a calling service that is not supported by intelligent peripheral (42), or if the service logic for the requested source is stale or unavailable, intelligent peripheral (42) requests that service control point (24) or another external source transmit the necessary service logic to intelligent peripheral (42) to perform the specific calling service. Intelligent peripheral (42) caches the service logic for the calling service for a predetermined period of time according to the anticipated future need for the calling service.
