The workflow of telecommunication operation support systems (telecomOSSs), which are a typical example of a heterogeneous domain model, often involves complicated cancellation processing.

They separate the cancellation process from the workflow and enable the OSSs to he made more flexible.process management, domain model, workflow, access network
