20110081013 | Shared Media Access for Real Time First and Third Party Media Control - A method comprising a data-processing system that enables one or more applications to share fewer ports by having the data-processing system request the ports, and then assign a “token” to establish a “session” to permit the one or more applications to interact with the ports. | 04-07-2011 |
20110289203 | SIP MONITORING AND CONTROL ANCHOR POINTS - The concept of anchor points is introduced. Anchor points, and specifically Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) anchor points, serve as a media and call control point that is established on a per-user basis which can then be shared by any application. The use of an anchor point allows for applications to become aware of and control a communication late or cease monitoring and controlling a communication session early without disrupting the session or introducing a significant amount of control or media delay. | 11-24-2011 |
20110289219 | SIP ANCHOR POINTS TO POPULATE COMMON COMMUNICATION LOGS - The concept of a centralized communication log is provided. Anchor points, and specifically Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) anchor points, serve as a media and call control point that is established on a per-user basis which can then be leveraged by a communication log service. Such a communication log service is able to determine accurate and real-time communicant information for a communication session and populate a centralized communication log with the same. Such a communication log is, therefore, accurate with respect to multiple users in a system, highly available, and scaled horizontally. | 11-24-2011 |
20120259925 | IM CONTINUATION ACROSS SIP SESSIONS AND ACROSS CLIENTS FOR POINT-TO-POINT AND MULTI-USER CHAT - A communication system can create a conversation identifier (ID) for a logical IM conversation. The conversation ID can identify messages that are associated with the same IM conversation. The associated IM messages can be stored in an archive for later use. When a SIP session ends but an IM conversation continues, a SIP server can rebuild the IM conversation with messages retrieved with the conversation ID. Further, an IM conversation can be restarted on a different IM client by retrieving messages from the archive associated with the previously established conversation ID. Thus, the conversation ID ensures that an IM conversation does not end due to system changes or reconfigurations in IM clients. | 10-11-2012 |
