摘要:
An enhanced telephony (ET) computer user interface that seamlessly integrates features of a personal computer (PC) and a telephone into a coherent user interface. The user is provided with a rich variety of functionality that leverages the fact that the PC has considerably more processing power and greater access to variety of data than the ordinary telephone. This processing power and data access is used to the user's advantage as the telephone's capabilities and functionality are greatly expanded. In general, the ET user interface includes a plurality of environments for the user to choose. These environments include a My Contacts environment, a communication preferences environment, and a Call History environment. Each of these environments contains certain available processes and features for controlling and managing telephones.

A system and method are provided for automatically providing for connection to electronic addressesreceived in spoken communications or audio signals. Under one embodiment, a system and method receives telephone calls or other information streams including spoken address information. The spoken address information includes electronic addresses, for example, telephone numbers. The system and method identify the spoken address information, and automatically recognize and extractthe identified address information from the information stream. The extracted address information is subsequently available for use in automatically coupling a receiving communication device toelectronic devices accessed by or associated with the extracted address information.

des moyens (22 i ) de pilotage de son fonctionnement, commandables à distance par messages écrits courts; et des moyens (24 i ) de transmission d'un signal de disponibilité pour une communication vocale, et en ce que ledit serveur (6) est adapté pour l'établissement d'une communication vocale suite à la réception dudit signal de disponibilité.
摘要:
A telecommunication system comprising a telephone switch, a telephone, a web server and a browser allows the user to control the interaction between the telephone and the telephone switch by interacting with a web page. The web page is provided by the web server based on information obtained from the control application and is based on the operation and features of the telephone switch. The web server provides the control information to the telephone switch through a control application.This allows the communication system to use regular telephone without any features while giving the user access to features through a standard, telephone switch independent user interface in the form of a web page displayed by the browser.

Office workers are equipped with a telephone and a desktop computer, the latter including an email system which allows telephony applets to be included in email messages. Thus the recipient of a message which includes an applet might typically be presented with a call back button. When this button is selected, it automatically provides the recipient with a telephone connection through to the sender of the message. This is accomplished by the applet using JTAPI to interact with the appropriate telephony equipment in order to form the desired connection.
摘要:
A computer program product having an open telephony system architecture such that one or more telephony applications defined on the computer program product may be modified, after initial deployment in the field (e.g. on a customer premise), independently of a vendor that controlled development of the one or more telephony applications. Further, a computer program product having an extensible telephony system architecture such that the telephony functionality defined thereon can be expanded by adding telephony applications to the computer program product. Also, a computer program product capable of controlling a connection during a telephone call using any of a plurality of call control protocols, including SIP, H.323, MGCP, Megaco/H.248, and the Skinny Station protocol. For a telephone call involving multiple connections, for example, a conference call, the computer program product can control communications on each connection concurrently and can use a different call control protocol for each connection. A communications network including one or more computer program products having one or more of the following properties: an open telephony system architecture, an extensible telephony system architecture; the capability to control a telephony call using any of a plurality of call control protocols.
摘要:
An electronic messaging system, and related method, employs a handwriting server component on a network operable with an email host server (120), and a handwriting client component operable with an email client on a client computer (110) connected to the network. The client component sets up a graphical data capture area into which a user can enter handwritten or handdrawn input through a suitable graphical input device. The handwritten or handdrawn input is captured and sent as pixel data or an attached graphic file with an email message. The preferred form of the handwriting messaging component is as a Java applet downloaded to the web page of the email client or installed as a plug-in with the email client. The graphical email message may be sent to a server having a Java-based handwriting server component, a Domino server, a real-time messaging server, a standard Internet email server, or an Internet email server with a WAP interface to wireless PDAs and other digital communications devices.
a Calling Line Identity ("CLI") detector/decoder, a modem or other device capable of rapidly putting a telephone line into an off-hook condition and transferring information, and software capable of interrogating the CLI detector/decoder, matching the number provided through CLI with a telephone number stored on the home internet appliance and instructing the modem to pick up the line before the bell ringing signal is received by the telephone.
摘要:
A communication system and a method for performing telephone calls over a hybrid network using a web page (7). The communication system includes a computer system (5) having an Internet browser application for browsing the Internet, at least one audio input device (12), at least one audio output device (13) and a communication device (16) for communicating with the hybrid network. The system further includes a telephony communication device (14) operably coupled to the web page (11) for performing telephone calls, an addressing server (8) for resolving a telephony call parameters and for providing destination parameters and a bridging device (9) operably coupled to the addressing server (8) for receiving destination parameters and for delivering the destination parameters to the PSTN (2) for establishing the telephone call.
摘要:
A scripting based network telephonic system and device for connection to a packet-switched network, preferably an IP network, particularly for use as a telephone, as its name suggests. The device preferably features a display screen for displaying video information, such as a GUI (graphical user interface) for example. More preferably, the display screen is integrated with a touch screen. Additionally or alternatively, function buttons are also provided for receiving user input. The system and device also provides real time language based scripting software functionality which enables the device to be flexibly customized according to the request of the user.
