| 20080227430 | Adding Emergency Numbers to a Mobile Address Book - In one embodiment, a method and corresponding apparatus provide a user with emergency service information which is significant to the user's location. A user's address book is updated with emergency service information for at least one emergency service, the emergency service information is based on the user's location, and the emergency service information for the at least one emergency service is presented in a manner which indicates the significance of the emergency service information to the user's location. | 09-18-2008 |
| 20080260110 | Checking Whether a Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) is Correctly Associated with an Endpoint - In one embodiment, a method includes automatically detecting occurrence of an event at an endpoint that suggests checking whether a public safety answering point (PSAP) currently associated with the endpoint is correctly associated with the endpoint. The method further includes, in response to the occurrence of the event, automatically prompting through the endpoint a user to provide input indicating whether data identifying a current location of the endpoint is correct. The method further includes receiving input from the user through the endpoint indicating whether the data is correct and, if the input from the user indicates that the data is not correct, automatically initiating an update of the data to correctly identify the current location of the endpoint. | 10-23-2008 |
| 20090003202 | Method and apparatus for domain and subdomain establishment for preemption - In one embodiment, a method and corresponding apparatus, in a network, treat a reservation for network layer resources according to a domain of reservation treatment to which the reservation belongs. | 01-01-2009 |
| 20090097403 | Method and apparatus for a reservation reflector function in routers - A method and corresponding apparatus establish a reservation in a segment of an end-to-end path between a data sender and a data receiver, up to a point in the end-to-end path; attempt to establish another reservation in an adjacent segment of the end-to-end path, beyond the point in the end-to-end path; and in an event that the other reservation is established in the adjacent segment of the end-to-end path, bind the other reservation to the reservation established in the segment of an end-to-end path up to the point in the end-to-end path. | 04-16-2009 |
| 20100111103 | EXECUTING AND SUPPORTING A MULTIPLE BANDWIDTH RESERVATION REQUEST - In one embodiment, a method includes obtaining a first message that includes at least a first bandwidth request that specifies a first bandwidth and a second bandwidth request that specifies a second bandwidth. The first bandwidth is a preferential bandwidth. The method also includes determining whether the first bandwidth may be allocated, and storing the first bandwidth and the second bandwidth in a stored reservation state if the first bandwidth may be allocated. If the first bandwidth may not be allocated, the method includes determining whether the second bandwidth may be allocated. The second bandwidth in the stored reservation state if it is determined that the second bandwidth may be allocated. In one embodiment, if the second bandwidth may be allocated, the first bandwidth is removed during process prior to sending the message to a subsequent node upstream. | 05-06-2010 |
| 20110182303 | Implementing Priority Based Dynamic Bandwidth Adjustments - A method that includes receiving a reservation request from a first endpoint that comprises a bandwidth list identifying a plurality of bandwidth levels associated with the first endpoint. At least two of the bandwidth levels have a unique priority level associated therewith. The method also includes establishing a communication session between the first endpoint and at least one additional endpoint using a first bandwidth based on a first priority level. The first bandwidth and the first priority level are each associated with a first bandwidth level of the plurality of bandwidth levels. The method further includes detecting a bandwidth event that impacts a bandwidth used by the first endpoint for the communication session. The method additionally includes adjusting the bandwidth used by the first endpoint to a second bandwidth that is different than the first bandwidth based on a second priority level that is different than the first priority level. | 07-28-2011 |
| 20110261835 | EXECUTING AND SUPPORTING A MULTIPLE BANDWIDTH RESERVATION REQUEST - In one embodiment, a method includes obtaining a first message that includes at least a first bandwidth request that specifies a first bandwidth and a second bandwidth request that specifies a second bandwidth. The first bandwidth is a preferential bandwidth. The method also includes determining whether the first bandwidth may be allocated, and storing the first bandwidth and the second bandwidth in a stored reservation state if the first bandwidth may be allocated. If the first bandwidth may not be allocated, the method includes determining whether the second bandwidth may be allocated. The second bandwidth in the stored reservation state if it is determined that the second bandwidth may be allocated. In one embodiment, if the second bandwidth may be allocated, the first bandwidth is removed during process prior to sending the message to a subsequent node upstream. | 10-27-2011 |
| 20110299553 | Technique for Reducing Resources Allocated to an Existing Reservation in a Data Network - A technique that allows existing reservations to be partially preempted by higher-priority reservations. An intermediate node receives a request to reserve resources for the higher-priority reservation. The higher priority entitles the reservation to acquire resources allocated to existing lower priority reservations, if necessary. If sufficient unallocated resources are not available on the preempting system to accommodate the higher-priority reservation, an error message is generated and forwarded by the intermediate node towards a receiver associated with the reservation that is to be partially preempted. The error message contains an error code and an amount of resources available on the intermediate node. The receiver processes the error message including selecting a reservation to be torn down, tearing down the selected reservation and re-reserving resources for remaining reservations, as necessary. | 12-08-2011 |
