摘要:
A method and apparatus for establishing a voice call to a PSTN extension for a networked client computer, and routing the voice call off of the network, is provided. In a first embodiment, the apparatus comprises a storage medium having stored therein a plurality of programming instructions for implementing a set of communication services for facilitating establishment of the voice call to the PSTN extension, and an execution unit, coupled to the storage medium, for executing the plurality of programming instructions. The set of communication services include services for receiving a Push-To-Talk.TM. request from the networked client computer, requesting the voice call, and in response, determining the PSTN extension. The Push-To-Talk.TM. request includes identification information of an originating web server of the Push-To-Talk.TM. option, and the determination of the PSTN extension is made in accordance with the originating web server's identification information.

In accordance with a method and appatatus for synchronization information browsing among multiple systems, a bridgeport system receives identifiers for data requests received in a first hardware system and automatically transmits the identifier of the requested data to one or more additional hardware systems. Each of these one or more additional hardware systems then retrieves the identified data, thereby keeping the data being provided in these hardware systems in synchronization.

A method and apparatus for establishing a voice call to a PSTN extension on behalf of a networked client computer, and routing the voice call off of the network, is provided. In a first embodiment, the apparatus comprises a storage medium having stored therein a plurality of programming instructions for implementing a set of communication services for facilitating establishment of the voice call to the PSTN extension, and an execution unit, coupled to the storage medium, for executing the plurality of programming instructions. The set of communication services include services for soliciting inputs from one or more other apparatuses on one or more operating characteristics associated with the establishment and support of the voice call to the PSTN extension, and selecting either the apparatus itself or one of the other apparatuses to place the voice call to the PSTN extension.

An apparatus is provided with a storage medium having stored therein programming instructions that implement a set of communication services for bridging a voice call from a caller to a calle, and an execution unit coupled to the storage medium for executing the programming instructions. The communication services include call management services for transitioning the voice call through a plurality of call states [including a call holding state] while connecting/disconnecting the caller and the callee, and facilitating selective provision of information in non-audio form to the caller [in at least the call holding state] while transitioning the voice calls through the call states. The caller is also equipped to receive non-audio information.
摘要:
The present invention provides a method and system for providing communication between a number of applications and a number of devices disposed in various relative locations in a data processing system through an interface that is capable of accessing only a single device at a prespecified relative location. The applications are concurrently executing within the data processing system. A device table is established for each of the applications, wherein each device table includes device parameter information and device address information for each of the devices in the data processing system. A particular device is specified for use with a selected application. Device parameter information and device address information for the prespecified relative location within the device table established for the application are overwritten with device parameter information and device address information for the particular device specified. Data is then directed from a particular application to a selected device utilizing the device parameter information and device address information stored within the device table for the particular application.
