PeriProducer
PeriProducer is the software tool used to create, maintain, and test interactive
applications for MPS systems in a GUI environment. It also provides a graphical
application generation and testing environment that supports all aspects of an
application’s life cycle.
These applications are invoked by means of the Application Manager tool
(APPMAN) accessible through PeriView. Generally, an MPS system runs multiple
lines concurrently, and these lines are used to run different applications or multiple
instances of the same application. For additional information about APPMAN see the
PeriView Reference Manual.
The following is a list of the major functions that are available for processing caller
transactions. An application can use some or all of these features:
• speaking to callers in recorded and/or synthesized speech
• accepting input from the caller using touch tone, speech recognition, or
speech recording
• concurrently interfacing to multiple hosts
• processing information via computation
• accessing local files and databases
• sending or receiving a fax
• controlling phone lines
• processing exceptions
• recording caller messages
Generally, PeriProducer should be run on a separate development workstation. Should
it be necessary to run it on a workstation that is also actively processing phone calls,
PeriProducer should be used only during times of low system activity. Processing-
intensive activities (e.g., testing logic paths, implementing resource usage, etc.) may
impact the overall performance of the MPS system.
PeriProducer provides features that are used to verify the performance and
functionality of an application either before or after it is placed into a production
environment. While under development, application execution is accurately
simulated within the PeriProducer software environment on the development
workstation. A set of diagnostic functions allows the developer to view the internal
workings of an application during the simulation.
When assigned to a line and started, the processing of an application is managed by
the VOS VENGINE process (see VENGINE on page 36). VENGINE is also used
while developing an application to execute all or part of the application so that the
logic paths and application functions can be tested.
For additional information about using PeriProducer to create and maintain
applications designed to execute in the MPS environment, refer to the PeriProducer
User’s Guide.
