摘要:
A system is described for facilitating a conference call between a plurality of communication devices, the system comprising: a first primary communication device; wherein the first primary communication device is configured to receive and authenticate security tokens; a conference call controller; wherein the conference call controller is configured to establish a first control link with the first primary communication device; wherein the conference call controller comprises a controller security token generator configured to generate security tokens; wherein the conference call controller and the first primary communication device are configured to communicate a first security token via the first control link; and wherein the conference call controller is configured to establish a media link between the first primary communication device and at least one second primary communication device (612), subsequent to the first primary communication device authenticating the first security token. In some embodiments, the first control link may comprise a WiFi connection.
摘要:
Systems and methods are described that for authenticating participants in a conference call. One method may include: providing a first primary communication device having a first security token generator configured to generate first security tokens; providing a second primary communication device; providing a conference call controller configured to receive and authenticate security tokens; establishing a first control link between the first primary communication device and the conference call controller; generating a first security token; communicating the first security token between the first primary communication device and the conference call controller via the first control link; authenticating the first security token; and establishing a media link between the first and second primary communication devices via the conference call controller. In some embodiments, the first control link may comprise a WiFi connection.

摘要:
Systems and methods are described that facilitate the generation of calling lists for use in planning or setting up conference calls. The system may include a communications module and a contact database comprising a plurality of contact records, each contact record corresponding to a different contact. Each contact record may include at least one contact address and at least one descriptor. For example, the descriptor may include a job title and/or expertise for the contact. The system may also include a selection module configured to select at least one of the contacts and also configured to compare the at least one descriptor to at least one qualifier criteria. The method may include: providing a contact database comprising a plurality of contact records, each contact record corresponding to a different contact; wherein each contact record comprises at least one contact address and at least one descriptor; determining at least one qualifier criteria; comparing the qualifier criteria to the at least one descriptor; determining a calling list corresponding to at least one contact.
摘要:
A method for controlling access, of a communication device, to a conference call, the method comprising determining contextual attributes related to the device, evaluating the contextual attributes against a set of access requirements and connecting the device to the conference call if one or more of the access requirements is satisfied.
摘要:
A method for controlling access by of communication devices to a conference call, the method comprising associating proximity settings with a conference call, the proximity settings indicating a acceptable proximity of other communication devices relative to a selected communication device; sensing by the selected communication device proximity of the other devices within its proximity of the communication device to obtain proximity information; and determining, by a processor, from the obtained proximity information and the proximity settings an action to be performed with reference to the conference call.
摘要:
Systems and methods are described that facilitate a conference call between a plurality of communication devices. The method may comprise: providing a first primary communication device; providing a second primary communication device; providing a conference call controller; providing a first alternate communication device; establishing a first control link between the first primary communication device and the conference call controller; establishing a media link between the first and second primary communication devices via the conference call controller; and establishing a second media link between the first alternate communication device and the conference call controller. The second media link may be established upon the conference call controller receiving a link request from the first primary communication device via the control link. In some embodiments, the first media link conveys a first media signal which is different than a second media signal conveyed by the second media link.
