Abstract: An incoming communication processing system and method is disclosed for providing communication and data services to residents of a controlled facility. Specifically, the incoming communication processing system allows outside parties to initiate communications to residents of a controlled facility. The incoming communication processing system may work in conjunction with or separately from an outgoing communication processing system. Many restrictions and safeguards may be implemented within the incoming communication system in order to prevent improper use.

Abstract: A system for customizing time limits for inmate communications in a correctional facility is disclosed. The system includes a profile subsystem that stores an inmate profile of the inmate and a communication processing subsystem comprising one or more processors configured to receive data of an inmate communication of an inmate, identify a type of communication device of the inmate and a call recipient of the inmate communication based on the data of the inmate communication, retrieve the inmate profile of the inmate form the profile subsystem, identify a plurality of behaviors of the inmate based on the inmate profile, determine a time limit based on at least one of the type of communication device, the call recipient of the inmate communication, and the plurality of behaviors of the inmate, and assign the time limit to the inmate communication of the inmate.

Abstract: A charging method is provided. The method includes the following: A forwarding plane network element sends forwarding plane charging statistics to a charging system when the forwarding plane charging statistics meet a preset charging trigger condition, and may further send a charging context identifier to the charging system; the charging system actively sends control plane charging request information to a control plane network element after receiving the forwarding plane charging statistics; the control plane network element sends control plane charging information to the charging system after receiving the request information, and may further send the charging context identifier; and the charging system associates the forwarding plane charging statistics with the control plane charging information based on the charging context identifier, and performs charging processing.

Abstract: Disclosed is a voice message exchange system and method for improving communication between an inmate and a third party by enabling the inmate to leave a message when a call is not answered and further allowing the third party who receives the message to reply with a message to the inmate. Additionally, outside parties that meet the institution's requirements can leave messages for inmates at any time. The present invention can be used as an add-on to legacy inmate call management systems or incorporated internally into an inmate call management system. The system also provides monitoring, controlling, recording, and billing means.

Abstract: A method includes detecting a first operation, where the first operation is used to trigger sending an object on an application program, and the object includes a video file, an audio file, a picture, or a page that contains a link; in response to the first operation, determining a traffic value for loading the object, and displaying the traffic value in an input box of a to-be-sent screen; detecting a second operation, where the second operation is used to determine to send the object and information that includes at least the traffic value; and in response to the second operation, sending the object and the information that includes at least the traffic value.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for managing data deliver for data constrained user devices. In one aspect, a method includes the actions of receiving, from a user device, requests for resources. For each of the requests, determining whether the user device is currently subject to a data constraint for receiving data responsive to the request. For each request for which the user device is determined to be subject to the data constraint, provide data that causes the user device to display a prompt to choose whether a resource responsive to the request is to be provided in the unrestricted data form or a restricted data form. A resource can be provided in an unrestricted data form has a first data size and provided in a restricted data form has a second data size that is less than the first data size.

Abstract: A method for accessing telecommunications services (124-126) from a terminal (110-112, 140-142) having credit-based communications capabilities. The method includes consuming credit when accessing telecommunications services, when available communications credit value becomes lower than a predefined threshold, providing to a user of said terminal a action selection user interface enabling the selection of a credit-generating action by the user, and after the action has been executed, recharging communications credit for the user. The present invention also provides a system for implementing the method.

Abstract: A network access control method includes obtaining network information of an electronic device, determining, using the network information, whether the electronic device needs to use a first access point name (APN) network channel, and generating a network channel switching instruction in response to determining that the electronic device needs to use the first APN network channel. The network channel switching instruction instructs to switch the electronic device from a second APN network channel to the first APN network channel. The second APN network channel has access to more network resource addresses than the first APN network channel.
