20090274281 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING COMMUNICATION CONTROL FUNCTIONALITY AT A REMOTELY LOCATED SITE USING A DISTRIBUTED FEATURE ARCHITECTURE - A method for providing communication control functionality at a remotely located site using a distributed feature architecture which provides communication features and data records to an Enhanced Network User (ENU). The ENU connects to a Distributed Feature Network (DFN) in order to gain access to communications features contained in the DFN. Based on the type of communication requested, one or more feature boxes are created in order to implement the requested communication. | 11-05-2009 |
20100303094 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DYNAMICALLY DETERMINING MULTIMEDIA TRANSMISSION BASED ON COMMUNICATION BANDWIDTH - A system and method is provided for dynamically adjusting one or more characteristics of a multimedia transmission between a content provider and a content recipient. In one embodiment, the system responds to a change in available bandwidth between the content provider and the content recipient. | 12-02-2010 |
20120023256 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DYNAMICALLY DETERMINING MULTIMEDIA TRANSMISSION BASED ON COMMUNICATION BANDWIDTH - A system and method is provided for dynamically adjusting one or more characteristics of a multimedia transmission between a content provider and a content recipient.

20140133645 | Method And Apparatus For Network-Intelligence-Determined Identity Or Persona - A method and apparatus is presented for enabling an agent to assume the identity or persona of a called party and process calls directed to the called party. In one embodiment, methods, which enable an agent to assume the identity or persona of a called party, and process calls directed to the called party are considered a call center functions and may be implemented in a call center. A call is initiated to a called party. Initiating the call generates called party information. Using the called party information a server retrieves information associated with the called party and then forward the information associated with the called party to an agent. The call is then forwarded to the agent. As a result, the agent may use the information associated with the called party to assume the identity or persona of the called party when responding to the call. | 05-15-2014 |
20140185431 | Multiple Media Fail-Over To Alternate Media - The present invention is a system and method for failing over from a current network access medium to an alternative network access medium. A customer premises equipment (CPE) box has ports for connections to a network through several network access media, such as high speed cable connections, DSL connections and dial-up connections. QoS parameters for each of the connections are monitored from a bandwidth manager remote from the CPE box. When it is determined that a fail-over would be beneficial, a message is sent from the bandwidth manager to the CPE box containing a command to fail-over and an identity of the alternate network access media. | 07-03-2014 |
