Abstract: A method and system are provided for admitting new participants to an ongoing conference session. In one example, a conference server hosting a conference session may receive a request for a UE to join the ongoing conference session. In response to receiving such a request, the conference server may determine whether to admit the UE to the ongoing conference session as a full participant or as a partial participant. When the conference server determines to admit the UE as a full participant, the conference server establishes a conference leg with the UE and permits the UE to communicate with each and every current participant of the ongoing conference session. However, when the conference server determines to admit the UE as a partial participant, the conference server may establish a conference leg with the UE and may permit the UE to communicate with just some of the ongoing conference's current participants.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems to facilitate automatic distribution of communications. In particular, a server may maintain data that indicates at least one registered subject-matter interest respectively for each of a plurality of users. Further, the server may receive a communication from a source user. The source user may be served by a particular base station. In response to receiving the communication, the server may identify one or more target users based on each target user (i) having at least one registered subject-matter interest that matches at least one subject-matter interest of the source user and (ii) being served either by the same particular base station that serves the source user or by a base station adjacent to the particular base station that serves the source user. The server may forward the communication to each identified target user.
