摘要： Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) emergency calls to an Emergency Response Center (ERC) are handled through a VoIP conference bridge on a VoIP service provider's soft switch. The soft switch works with a VoIP positioning center (VPC) to obtain location information, which is compared against a PSAP database to find an initial best-appropriate PSAP for the location of the emergency caller. The PSAP is issued an Invite message to join the conference, establishing an emergency call. Third parties such as police, ambulance may be issued Invite messages to join the conference. Cold transfers are avoided by Inviting participants to join a single emergency conference rather than passing an emergency call from party to party (e.g., from PSAP to police to ambulance, etc.) The PSAP, other emergency responders, and even the initial VoIP emergency caller may leave and rejoin the VoIP conference without dropping the conference between the others.

摘要： Voice Over Internet Protocol (VoIP) devices are invited to a conference bridge based on a pre-defined criteria for the conference bridge (e.g., passengers on a plane. The conference invite messages are transmitted using Internet Protocol, which they may or may not accept. The invited VoIP users may be determined based on their physical proximity to the initial caller and other pre-determined characteristics. A VoIP soft switch includes conference bridges that eliminate the conventional requirement that they dial the phone number of another specific VoIP communications device. Instead, location information relating to the initial VoIP user is passed to the VoIP conference bridge, either from the user's VoIP communication device or from their respective location server. Location and other information is then compared by the VoIP soft switch against other VoIP devices, to find potential VoIP conference participants.

摘要： The function of determination of location is separated from the function of gathering information based on determined location by use of a Location Object (LO) proxy between an initiating VoIP capable device and a positioning center. The LOProxy queries an appropriate location database using a location key, and injects a PIDF-LO into a routing SIP message otherwise without location. A SIP request without location is received from a VoIP capable device. The SIP request contains messages indicating the type of location generator or service needed. A location key (like a telephone number or SIP URI), in addition to the type of location generator or service needed, is included in a SIP request. A location object (LO) broker may be used between a routing SIP message and a positioning center to direct a routing SIP message to an appropriate one of a plurality of location object (LO) proxies.

摘要： An automated system for matching a calling potential buyer on a VoIP phone with a prospective commercial business within their current area. The buyer may accept or reject connection with a best available prospective business to be automatically presented with the next prospective business as ranked by the presenting business locating service. The location of the potential buyer is provided or obtained, and the best available business selected from the database based on proximity to the buyers current location. A secondary prioritization may be applied to highest bidding businesses. The business finding module establishes a VoIP conference bridge, and invites the buyer and best available business. A pre-recorded message may be played into the conference bridge or directly to the buyer or business. The businesses may be ranked based on how much they pay or bid to be presented first to potential buyers.

摘要： One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that buffers data inside of a byte-stream protocol at a transport layer on a client, which is receiving the data from an external source. The system operates by receiving a configuration parameter at the transport layer from an application executing on the client, wherein the configuration parameter specifies a condition upon which data buffered at the transport layer is to be sent to the application. The system then buffers data destined for the application at the transport layer on the client, and sends the buffered data to the application when the condition specified by the configuration parameter is met. Buffering data at the transport layer on the client facilitates more efficient processing of system calls.

摘要： One embodiment of the present invention provides a plug-in architecture for a network stack in an operating system. The network stack includes a set of functions configured to modify a set of parameters that are likely to change based on the network environment. The architecture includes a plug-in framework within the network stack that allows the set of functions to be dynamically changed in order to change the TCP behavior of the network stack to suit the network environment.
