Abstract

In the paper the research results of modern programming languages used to develop programs for individual units of modern systems of telecommunication services. It was determined that one of the most promising and one that is booming implementations approach to the creation of modern systems of telecommunication services is technology OpenFlow Softswitch. This technology is a logical continuation of the post NGN (IP Multimedia Subsystem) and Softswitch component of such systems. Its main instrument is the OpenFlow specification, which describes the basic components of OpenFlownetworking principles and interaction of the components. Organization for Standardization specifications are ONF - Open Networking Foundation. The results of the analysis of existing software for modern systems of telecommunication services following conclusions can be made that most existing software for modern systems of telecommunication services written in high-level languages: C, C ++, Python, Java, Rybu; cross-platform are Java-only controllers FloodLight, Beacon and Maestro, others work on Linuxplatforms; dominant programming languages for switching systems are C and Java. It is shown that the results of existing research software for the creation of modern systems of telecommunication services and open source software, the most promising and those that are actively developing developments controllers Beacon, FloodLight (in the language of Java), Trema and MuL (in C). Determined that based programming languages C and Java, the programming language developed special networks on the one hand represent high-level flow control methods in the network, on the other hand hide all the details on proper and correct installation rules for low-level switches. Currently the following languages are Frenetic, NetCore and Nettle. The most popular programming language among programmers, including and modern systems of telecommunication services is language Java. There are 4 main reasons: crossplatform; friendly syntax; object-oriented language; memory management.

Keywords: programming language, telecommunication services, NGN, OpenFlow Softswitch, C, C++, Python, Java, Rybu, Frenetic, NetCore і Nettle.
