Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for performing a distributed control of end-to-end media on packet networks such as Voice over Internet Protocol and Service over Internet Protocol networks are disclosed. The method first receives a request from a first media endpoint device for closing at least one media channel to a second media endpoint device wherein the request contains a descriptor of the first media endpoint device. The method then updates one or more slot states and link states in response to the request and records the current state of each slot for supporting the media channel. The method also records the most recently received descriptor of the media endpoint device as a most recent descriptor for the slot supporting the media channel. The method executes one or more link objects in response to the request for controlling the at least one media channel.

Abstract:
Personal mobility, multiparty control, and device augmentation features are provided within a voice-over-Internet protocol environment, such as a distributed feature composition (DFC) telecommunications architecture. The personal mobility features allow a caller to be identified to a callee using a desired identifier in place of an identifier of the device from which a call is made. Such personal mobility features are made available in multiparty calling environments and after mid-call moves. Device augmentation features provide enhanced calling options to a device that may otherwise be unequipped to provide such options, thus enabling personal mobility and multiparty control features across a wide variety of telecommunications devices.
