SNOW Introduction
Samsung Next Open Workspace(SNOW) provides user interface for an
operator to operate and maintain the CDMA2000 Mobile Switching
Center(MSC) system. MSC provides user interface at Man Machine
Subsystem(MMS) block within OMP before using the SNOW. This has
many restrictions on development of various applications. On the
other hand, CDMA2000 MSC developed the MMS block on the commercial
Work Station to help to accept various applications.
The MMS block operating on the Work Station is called IOServer
and SNOW is the application that connects to this IOServer as a
client.
