Abstract:
A self-configuring dynamic contact center including a plurality of resources, each resource associated with a set of attributes, a plurality of dynamic switches connected to the resources, a dynamic controller connected to the dynamic switches and configured to control the operation of the dynamic switches, and a routing engine connected to the dynamic controller. The routing engine is configured to utilize the dynamic controller and dynamic switches to determine the states of network paths between the dynamic switches, and is further configured to determine which of the resources are suitable to handle a contact based on requirements of the contact and the attributes of the resources, to determine which of the suitable resources is an optimal resource based on the requirements of the contact and the states of the network paths, and to utilize the dynamic controller and the dynamic switches to route the contact to the optimal resource.
Abstract:
A dialog aggregator provided by a contact center communication system for text-based interaction chains is described along with various methods and mechanisms for administering the same. The dialog aggregator produces a summary, in real-time, of questions posed and existing answers in the interaction chain while identifying outstanding questions that have not been answered for display to an agent. The display includes any current answer the agent is working on as well as completed items and additionally executes rules based on the status of the remaining questions. The display in canonical form of the summary and outstanding question set enables a contact center agent or other observer of the interaction to quickly and efficiently assess the interaction history.
Abstract:
A method, apparatus and computer program product for performing automatic enterprise software upgrades is presented. An install agent application of a target system authorizes a centralized controller to securely communicate with the target system. The install agent downloads an upgrade for an enterprise software application installed on said target system from the centralized controller and executes the upgrade for an enterprise software application installed on the target system.
Abstract:
One or more implementations can include methods, systems and computer readable media for multi-threaded multipath processing. In some implementations, the method can include determining that a next hop for a destination includes a first next hop and a second next hop. The method can also include generating a first packet having a first destination address based on a nickname of a remote switch and on an identifier of a first path. The method can further include generating a second packet having a second destination address based on the nickname of the remote switch and on an identifier of a second path.
Abstract:
One or more implementations can include methods, systems and computer readable media for elastic wireless control planes. In some implementations, the method can include evaluating one or more elastic wireless control plane mode factors, and partitioning each of a plurality of access points into one of an active mode group and a sleep mode group based on the evaluating. The method can also include determining a number of wireless control plane instances needed based on the partitioning. The method can further include activating the number of wireless control plane instances and shutting down any excess wireless control plane instances beyond the number.
Abstract:
A system for automated routing or work requests is provided. Particularly, a system for routing work requests in a distributed computing system to minimize an energy cost associated with operating the system is provided. A resource utilization module configured to receive resource utilization information; the resource utilization information including indications of utilization corresponding to a plurality of computing resources is disclosed. Furthermore, an energy consumption module configured to receive energy consumption information; the energy consumption information including indications of energy consumption corresponding to the plurality of computing resources is disclosed. Additionally, a routing module configured to route a work request to one of the plurality of computing resources based at least in part on the received utilization information and the received energy consumption information to minimize energy costs of the plurality of computing resources is disclosed.
Abstract:
The system includes a virtualized environment having at least one partition. An instance of an application executes in the partition. The application instance is not dedicated to a single user or element. Rather, the application instance may be shared or parsed out to two or more users or elements. To accomplish this sharing, the static data (which is common to all the elements or users) may be maintained in the partition or is loaded at runtime. The dynamic data (the data which is unique to each instantiation and associated with the element requesting the application) can be loaded when an instance is dedicated to execute for a particular element or user. Thus, various elements can share instances of an application and there need not be instances dedicated to particular elements.
Abstract:
A method for controlling a multi-media presentation is provided. The method includes displaying an event structure related to an event on a graphical user interface, getting a plurality of event items associated with the event, and displaying the plurality of event items associated with the event structure on the graphical user interface. Responsive to an event trigger, the event is started. The method further includes receiving a selection of a first event item from the plurality of event items, performing a first action related to the first event item, and sending an output of the first action to a display device.
Abstract:
A first communication session is created with a first application written in first language. A change is detected in first variables in the first application. The first variables are retrieved from the first application in response to detecting a change in the first variables. The first communication session is transferred to a second application written in a second language. A change is detected in a second variable in the second application. The second variable is retrieved from the second application in response to detecting the change in the second variable. A common pair of variables are matched between the first variables and the second variable. The first communication session and the transferred first communication session are associated as a common communication session in response to matching the common pair of variables. One or more of the first plurality of variables is then used by the second application.
Abstract:
Providing origin insight via Session Traversal Utilities for Network Address Translation (STUN) messages for web applications, and related methods, systems, and computer-readable media are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a method for providing origin insight for web applications via STUN messages comprises determining an origin identifier for a web application attempting to send a STUN message to a STUN server; generating the STUN message incorporating the origin identifier for the web application; and transmitting the STUN message to the STUN server. In another embodiment, a method for providing STUN services to web applications comprises receiving a STUN message from a web client, and extracting an origin identifier for a web application. Provision of a STUN service to the web application is determined based on the origin identifier. If the STUN service should not be provided, the STUN message is rejected or disregarded; otherwise the STUN message is processed.
