Abstract:
Federated computing architectures allow for the interoperability of components and facilitates the exchange of data between varying systems and components. Endpoints, such as those utilizing Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP) assume the same XMPP stream is used for both messaging and presence. Such systems are unable to accommodate a representational state transfer (“REST”) or, in other words, be “RESTful,” where the messaging server and presence server are distinct servers and may be on different domains. Provided here are systems described to split the protocols and enable an endpoint to appear to communicate with a single server while a protocol splitter routes and receives messages from distinct servers handling messaging and presence separately.

Abstract:
System and method to enable access restriction to a recorded electronic conversation among a plurality of users, the method including: establishing an electronic conversation among at least a first subset of the plurality of users, the first subset comprising an initial membership of the electronic conversation; recording in a conversation history a change in membership of the electronic conversation; transmitting a notification to at least a portion of a current membership of the electronic conversation; associating the notification with membership of the electronic conversation existent at the time the notification is transmitted; recording the notification in the conversation history; relaying a message to at least a portion of a current membership of the electronic conversation; associating the message with membership of the electronic conversation existent at the time the message is relayed; and recording the message in the conversation history.
