20100158226Method and system for configuring a contact database associated with a user - A method implemented by a network entity that comprises identifying contact information associated with a previously-originated call, receiving from a user information indicative of a desired modification to a database associated with the user, wherein the desired modification involves the contact information associated with the previously-originated call. The method further comprises configuring the database associated with the user at least in part on the basis of the desired modification and the contact information associated with the previously-originated call.06-24-2010
20100246783METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ENABLING A CALLING PARTY TO LEAVE A VOICE MESSAGE FOR A CALLED PARTY IN RESPONSE TO A COMMAND PROVIDED BY THE CALLING PARTY - A method for allowing a calling party to leave a message for a called party. The method comprises: receiving a command provided by the calling party and indicative of a desire of the calling party to leave a message for the called party; obtaining message destination information associated with the called party; receiving a voice message provided by the calling party; generating an electronic message representative of the voice message; and causing transmission of the electronic message based on the message destination information. An apparatus for implementing the method is also provided.09-30-2010
20100290609METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ROUTING CALLS PLACED TO A TELEPHONY IDENTIFIER ASSOCIATED WITH A GROUP OF IDENTITIES - A method for processing a call placed to a telephony identifier. The method comprises: obtaining information regarding an origin of the call; identifying a group of identities that is associated with the telephony identifier, each identity designating a party reachable by calling the telephony identifier; determining, based on the information regarding the origin of the call, that the call is intended for a particular identity among the group of identities; and causing routing of the call based on information associated with the particular identity. The party designated by each identity may be a different person. Also provided a system for processing a call placed to a telephony identifier.11-18-2010
20100296425METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ESTABLISHING A CONNECTION WITH A PACKET-BASED APPLICATION SERVER - A method that comprises receiving over a network connection a signal from a communication device indicative of an intention to initiate a telephony action, and causing a communication link between the communication device and a packet-based application server to be established. The communication link enabling the packet-based application server to receive from the communication device information related to an intended telephony action.11-25-2010
20110038469METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROCESSING CALLS IN AN ARCHITECTURE ALLOWING A TELEPHONY IDENTIFIER TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH A GROUP OF IDENTITIES - A system and a method for processing calls. The system comprises a database including: a plurality of telephony identifiers; and for each telephony identifier, information regarding a group of persons that is associated with the telephony identifier, each person of the group of persons being reachable by placing a call to the telephony identifier, the information comprising, for each person of the group of persons, information related to processing of calls involving the person. The system also comprises a processing element having access to the database and being operative for: determining that a given call involves a particular person of the group of persons that is associated with a given one of the telephony identifiers: and processing the given call based on the information related to processing of calls involving the particular person. Also provided is a method for associating an additional telephony identifier wish one or more identities of a group of identities that is associated with a telephony identifier, and a method for associating an additional identity with a telephony identifier that is associated with a group of identifies.02-17-2011
20110153794Method and system for converting session initiation messages - A network entity comprising an input for receiving from a given IP device, a session initiation message for initiating a communication session over a packet based network via a session initiation message generated according to a particular session initiation protocol and a processing entity. The processing entity is operative for detecting a characteristic associated with the given IP device, determining, at least in part on the basis of the characteristic associated with the given device, a given interface module from a plurality of interface modules for processing the session initiation message generated according to the particular session initiation protocol and causing the first session initiation message generated according to the particular session initiation protocol to be processed by the given interface module for converting the first session initiation message into a second session initiation message generated according to a pre-determined session initiation protocol.06-23-2011
