Abstract:
A method is provided for creating a portable history data record for a customer by integrating Web cookie data and telephone history data. The method includes the acts (a) retrieving and interpreting the Web cookie data, (b) retrieving and interpreting the telephone history data, (c) combining the data sets into a single data record eliminating redundant data, (d) formatting the data record for human or for machine interpretation, and (e) presenting the formatted data record to a point of service during or just ahead of an associated interaction event.
Abstract:
A trust network has at least one transmission medium supporting transmission of data, wherein data transmitted is in at least some instances transmitted in discrete portions, two or more nodes terminating discrete legs in the transmission medium, and trust software executing from a machine-readable medium by a processor on one or more of the two or more nodes. The one or more nodes executing trust software apply trust logic to transmission of the discrete data portions.

Abstract:
A federation system operating in a first enterprise includes a configuration server and a database for creating and storing federation configuration data and a federation registrar having an interface for dealing with a second enterprise seeking to federate. In the system the second enterprise connects to the federation registrar, negotiation takes place concerning details of federation, agreement is reached, configuration is stored in the configuration database, and the second enterprise is then coupled to the first enterprise through a pair of federation proxy interfaces, one at the first enterprise and one at the second enterprise, the proxy interfaces configured by details of the federation.
Abstract:
A system for assembling a business process or a portion thereof includes a rules base containing executable rules and defined business process elements, a workflow orchestration engine, and at least one interface available to a process beneficiary. Information known about and or provided by a process beneficiary interacting with the at least one interface is used to execute one or more of the rules causing assembly of a new business process or a portion thereof according to workflow orchestration rules the new or modified process directing servicing of the process beneficiary accordingly.
Abstract:
A system for generating usage statistics for a communications routing system from data generated at routing points and at end points of the system has a processor having access to the communications routing system for analyzing the data and generating the statistics, and a server having access to the processor for rendering the generated statistics into a format for display. The data used to generate the statistics includes routing path information for events routed through the communications routing system and optionally interaction histories recorded at certain routing points and end points in the communications routing system.
Abstract:
An apparatus includes at least one computing device configured to send a search query to at least one network server; receive questions from the at least one network server based on the search query; send responses to the at least one network server based on the questions; and receive a search result from the at least one network server based on the responses. The at least one computing device is further configured to send the search query and/or receive the search result via a cellular telephone network, a wireless fidelity network, and/or a digital subscriber line network. A system includes at least one server configured to receive a search query from a computing device; send questions to the computing device based on the search query; receive information from the computing device based on the questions; and send a search result to the computing device based on the information.
Abstract:
A network-based processing server for processing statistics and serving advertisements includes a first network interface to a first stat server for receiving consumer statistics, a second network interface to a second stat server for receiving response capability statistics, and a dedicated input/output port connecting the processing server to a broadcast network. The processing server selects and serves advertisements over the broadcast network to consumers positioned to receive the advertisements based on the processing of consumer statistics and advertisement response capability statistics against at least one rule.
