Abstract:
In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, by a directory service, a call from a user of a mobile phone requesting a number of a communication device associated with a callee. The number is then retrieved from a database by the directory service and then dialed to connect the mobile phone with the communication device. The directory service also sends the number to the mobile phone, the mobile phone being configured to store the number in a storage location. It is emphasized that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract that will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure.
Abstract:
A method for telephony includes receiving at a facility of a telephone service provider a first subscriber request to place a first call to a specified telephone number. A provider request is sent to a remote server (26), which maintains a database (28) of records associating telephone numbers with respective packet network addresses, for a record (72) indicating a packet network address to which calls to the specified telephone number should be placed. Upon receiving the record from the remote server, the record is stored in a local cache (42) at the facility of the telephone service provider. After storing the record, upon receiving at the facility of the telephone service provider a second subscriber request to place a second call to the specified telephone number, the record is read from the local cache and is used in placing the second call to the packet network address.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed for providing pertinent multimedia content to mobile subscribers based on dynamically created profiles. Users are provided information relevant to their interests based on dynamic profiles developed as a result of prior patterns of use, interest and behavior. Such profile generation is automated without need for active user participation in selecting what would be desirable information.
Abstract:
A method, system and apparatus for dynamically alerting calling parties of menu structure changes in a telephone prompting system. In a telephone prompting system, a menu structure change alert method can include determining whether a menu structure change has occurred for the telephone prompting system in response to the receipt of an incoming call from a calling party. Subsequently, the calling party can be selectively alerted of the menu structure change. In this regard, an alert message can be played to the calling party.
Abstract:
A method for displaying a voice conference historical monitor is provided. A summation of a plurality of voice streams is received at a user's endpoint of a multipoint conference, each voice stream being associated with a respective one of a plurality of speakers' endpoints of the multipoint conference. A record of participants of the multipoint conference and historical tracking data regarding a volume of each speaker that participates in the multipoint conference may also be received. In accordance with a particular embodiment of the present invention, the record of participants in the historical tracking data are displayed at the user's endpoint. The record of participants and the historical tracking data may be displayed as a cumulative short term response graph. Furthermore, the record of participants and the historical tracking data may be displayed as a historical time line graph.
Abstract:
A communications system and method, wherein a plurality of communications are received, each having associated classification information, information representing characteristics of at least three potential targets are stored; and an optimum target for each communication based on the communication classification, and target characteristics is determined in a combinatorial optimization. The optimization preferably comprises a cost benefit optimization. Predicted availability of a target may be another optimization factor.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for analyzing communications of a contact center are provided. A representative system incorporates a graphical user interface operative to display information corresponding to a communication of the contact center, the graphical user interface being configured to display the information such that different portions of the communication are visually distinguished from each other.
Abstract:
Methods are provided, a representative one of which involves: recording information associated with a communication; providing a graphical user interface, the graphical user interface being configured such that, responsive to a user input designating a portion of the communication, information recorded and corresponding to that portion of the communication is presented to the user; and displaying, via the graphical user interface, graphical indications of events occurring during the communication
Abstract:
There is provided a system and a method for simultaneously scheduling resources in customer contact centers based on the requirements of each skill. Indeed, the method simply relies on the analysis and duplication, without using complex simulations, of the routing of particular calls to each agent for each of his skills and for each sub-interval of a working day to then provide a simultaneous scheduling of resources based on the requirements of each skill calculated from previously captured customers' needs for each sub-interval of each selected working period.
Abstract:
The present invention discloses a call center system and a method for obtaining interface invoke information to realize automatic analysis of the user behaviors. The method includes steps of sending a connection establishment request message to a user interface server by a call center client after a service is activated; allocating a connection identification for the activated service and sending a response message after the user interface server receives the connection request message; performing interactions between the call center client and the user interface server and recording the interaction message according to the connection identification attached in the interaction message; and decomposing the recorded interaction message and obtaining the information on the application programming interface invoked by each service according to the name of the application programming interface corresponding to the interface identification obtained from each message.
