The present invention is directed to a system, method and software program product for implementing a policy payment agent which, based on policy thresholds set by the consumer, determines whether or not autonomously issue a payment. Initially, the consumer sets the payment policy through the selection of payment parameters such as the type of consumable or transaction, maximum one-time payment amount, and recent spending rate. If the payment request meets the payment policy criteria, then the payment agent autonomously issues a payment. Otherwise, the request is passed to the user for manual intervention.

摘要:
A method for providing communication services for the hearing-impaired includes establishing a communication link between a hearing-impaired party and a communication assistant. The communication link may be a full duplex link. The communication assistant may also establish a voice link with a hearing party. The hearing-impaired party and the hearing party may then communicate, with the communication assistant acting as a conduit for the conversation. For example, the hearing party may send a voice message to the communication assistant. The communication assistant may then convert the voice message into a text message and transmit the text message to the hearing-impaired party. The communication assistant may also convert text messages received from the hearing-impaired party into voice messages for the hearing party.
摘要:
A system for providing services in a communications network includes a service processing function (19), a universal directory function (21), and a nodal resource manager (23). The service processing function (19) receives service requests, formulates requests for interworking functions based upon service requests, and formulates resource requests based upon service requests and interworking functions. The universal directory function (21) receives addresses from the service processing function (19) and returns interworking functions based upon addresses. The nodal resource manager (23) receives resource requests and allocates resources to the service processing function (19) in response to resource requests. The nodal resource manager (23) maintains a resource database (25) that includes an entry corresponding to each network resource managed by the nodal resource manager (23).

摘要:
Where a first communication service exhibits a first performance characteristic affecting communication quality and a second communication service exhibits both the first performance characteristic and a second performance characteristic not exhibited by the first communication service, a method for determination the effect of the second performance characteristic upon the quality of the second communication service comprising the steps: Establishing communications via the second communications service (702); Obtaining objective measures of the first performance characteristic as the second performance characteristic varies (704); Converting the objective measurement of the first performance characteristic into subjective rating based upon knowledge of the first communication service (706, 708, 710); Altering the subjective ratings to reflect the effects of the second performance characteristic by use of an assumed model for the effects of the second performance characteristic upon the subjective ratings of the first performance characteristic (712); Computing quality index values from the altered subjective ratings (712); and Adjusting the assume model to improve the correlation between the quality index values and the second performance characteristic (714)
