Abstract:
An apparatus having an agent that includes a processor and a memory coupled with the processor and communicates with at least one of a fault, configuration, accounting, performance, security module. The processor effectuates operations including determining that a service is operating properly. The processor further effectuates operations including if the service is operating properly and the service is disabled, enabling the service. The processor further effectuates operations including if the service is not operating properly, generating an alarm and if the service is enabled, disabling the service.
Abstract:
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, identifying user preferences for an XR application executing at an XR user system, wherein the user preferences are associated with an XR application user, accessing a historical profile associated with the XR application user, receiving local environment information from a sensor array of the XR user system, selecting an XR object for presentation on an XR display of the XR user system based on the local environment information, the user preferences, and the historical profile, and allocating compute resources to facilitate a rendering of the XR object, wherein the allocated compute resources are selected from a compute resource pool comprising local compute resources of the XR user system and edge compute resources of a network. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract:
A secure payment method includes receiving, by a payment recipient, a transaction request from a party in a transaction. The payment recipient requests a payment that is in a specified form and that is uniquely identified by a unique identification. The method includes receiving, on behalf of the payment recipient and at a payment recipient computer, the payment that is in the specified form. The payment is uniquely identified by the unique identification. The payment recipient authorizes the transaction in response to receiving the payment that is in the specified form and that is uniquely identified by the unique identification. The specified form is issued by a private third party.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus performing operations including instantiating at least one vENUM virtual machine instance, wherein the at least one vENUM virtual machine instance responds to a query by determining if at least one of a service and a record is operating; and when the at least one of a service and a record is operating, vENUM initiates an IMSI session for the at least one of a service and a record.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus to select a dynamically peered voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) border element are disclosed. An example method comprises collecting data representative of a dynamic performance of a voice over Internet protocol network, prioritizing a selection of a peered border element based on the collected data, and modifying a telephone number mapping (ENUM) database based on the prioritized selection.
Abstract:
A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, a communication device having a controller to transmit to a media server a request for distribution of media content to one or more targeted recipients according to a user profile associated with the communication device that is stored in the media server. The format of the media content can be adjusted by the media server based at least in part on the user profile. Other embodiments are disclosed.
Abstract:
A system and method for distributed processing in an Internet Protocol network is provided. A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, an application server can have a controller element to receive a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) INVITE message from a communication device, establish a Real Time Protocol (RTP) channel between the communication device and the application server responsive to the SIP INVITE message, and submit a SIP SUBSCRIBE message to an intermediate communication node (ICN) directing the ICN to engage one or more Digital Signal Processing (DSP) resources for processing signals in the RTP channel. Additional embodiments are disclosed.
Abstract:
Systems and methods to select peered border elements for a communication session based on Quality-of-Service (QoS) are disclosed. An example method includes selecting a peered border element to handle a communication session based on a list of peered border elements (PBEs) and a composite QoS parameter of the communication session, the list of PBEs being prioritized based on respective statuses of PBEs in the list, the first composite QoS parameter being based on weighted QoS parameters of the communication session including a grade of service (GoS) parameter of the communication session and a preferred mode of communication for a VoIP device of a called party in the communication session, the GoS parameter including an attempted performance range and an expected performance range of the communication session; and controlling a second server to generate a QoS authorization token to reserve network resources associated with the selected PBE.
Abstract:
A user is identified based at least in part on a user identification designation associated with an incoming communication. A message recipient is then determined based at least in part on the identified user and one or more address books associated with message recipients by comparing the user identification designation to one or more entries in the one or more recipient databases. The incoming communication is routed to the determined message recipient. Escalation procedures are implemented up to a configured level in the recipient organization based on various criteria. As messages are escalated and deposited in mailboxes associated with the determined message recipients, the determined message recipients are notified of the deposited messages.
