Abstract:
Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to a method and system for predictive analysis of technical issues in a technical support environment. In some embodiments, the method may include receiving information associated with a first technical support issue reported by a customer, associating at least one category with the first technical support issue based on an analysis of the received information and a history of system operation status data, and transmitting at least a portion of the information associated with the first technical support issue and the associated at least one category to an agent workstation.
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for recalling and replaying content during a communications session are provided herein. In some embodiments, methods for replaying content during a communications session may comprise detecting a real-time communications session between two or more participant devices, storing content of the communications session transmitted between the two or more participant devices as the real-time communications session persists, receiving a control request from a first participant device of the two or more participants devices to replay a portion of the content; and transmitting the portion of the content to at least one of the participant devices as the real-time communications session persists.
Abstract:
A telephony communication system prevents an incoming telephony communication directed to a user from being completed if the user is not authorized to communicate with the calling party. Likewise, a telephony system prevents a user from completing an outgoing telephony communication directed to a called party if the user the user is not authorized to communicate with the called party. The telephony communication system also electronically monitors a telephony communication between first and second parties and censors portions of the telephony communication to terminates the telephony communication if predetermined keywords appear in the communication.
Abstract:
A system and method for provisionable, multi-modal communications, including detecting a provisioning condition, selecting a communications mode based on the provisioning condition from a first usage mode, a second usage mode, and a third usage mode, and displaying an interface corresponding to the selected communications mode. The first usage mode includes a first communications channel supporting a first communication data consisting of instant messages (IM) and in-network voice data. The second usage mode includes a second communications channel supporting a second communication data consisting of IM, in-network voice data and out-of-network voice data. The third usage mode includes a second communications channel supporting a third communication data comprising video data.
Abstract:
Methods for prioritizing data traffic between a mobile device and a network access point are provided herein. In some embodiments, a method for prioritizing data traffic between a mobile device and a network access point may include: receiving information associated with bandwidth usage for a plurality of user applications that are running on one or more computing devices connected to the network access point; accessing the network access point via a controller application disposed on one of the computing devices; and granting, by the controller application, bandwidth allocations for each of the user applications over a first time period based on at least some of the information associated with the bandwidth usage.
Abstract:
An Internet protocol (IP) telephony system provides telephony services to a mobile telephony device via data packet communications that traverse a data network. If the IP telephony system has received calls that were missed by the user of the mobile telephony device, or if the IP telephony system has received communications that have not yet been reviewed by the user of the mobile telephony device, information about those missed calls and unreviewed messages is delivered to the mobile telephony device so that the user can be alerted to their existence. The information may be delivered to the mobile telephony device in a push notification.
Abstract:
A single virtual telephone number that is used to route telephony communications is assigned to first and second users if the first and second users rarely, if ever, communicate with the same party. When an incoming call is received on the virtual telephone number, telephony information for the first and second users is reviewed to determine if the calling party is one that has communicated with either of the first and second users in the past. If so, the telephony communication is routed to the user who has communicated with the calling party in the past.
Abstract:
An Off Net scenario may occur during primary communications between a first and second caller, in which the second caller is connected to a network over a data channel and receives a second call over a voice channel resulting in an interruption of the primary communications between the original callers. In the Off Net scenario, a message indicating the original communication has been interrupted is received by a carrier. The carrier substitutes another communication device in place of the second caller's communication device to establish a secondary communication between the first caller's communication device and the third communication device. The secondary communication may inform the first caller of the interruption of the primary communication and may provide options regarding the primary communication to the first caller.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for terminating telephony communications to a mobile telephony device that is roaming outside of its native service area make use of a forwarding termination service. The forwarding termination service causes the native mobile telephony service provider that provides service to the mobile telephony device to forward incoming telephony communications directed the native telephone number of the mobile telephony device to a forwarding access number. The forwarding termination service receives telephony communications directed to the forwarding access number, and then terminates the telephony communication to the mobile telephony device via any one of multiple different methods. The mobile telephony service provider can be instructed to implement and cancel call forwarding instructions by dialing a special character string on the mobile telephony device.
Abstract:
A method for voice modification during a telephone call comprising receiving a source audio signal associated with at least one participant, wherein the source audio signal comprises a voice of the at least one participant, detecting a source dialect of the at least one participant, selecting a target dialect based on at least a characteristic of a target participant and creating a modulated audio signal based on the source audio signal, the source dialect, and the target dialect and transmitting the modulated audio signal to the target participant.
