摘要： The present invention relates generally to telecommunications, and in particular to systems and methods for routing and placing telephone calls. In one embodiment, a call manager system is configured to place a call to a pay-per-call service, or to cause such a call to be placed by a user computer terminal, in response to a user initiating a purchase transaction over a computer network. In addition, the call may include billing information, such as the user's phone number, which is provided to the pay-per-call service so that the user can be billed for the call in an appropriate amount.

摘要： The present invention is directed to processing calls to busy telecommunications lines. In one embodiment, the presence of a subscriber accessing a computer network over a first telephone line via a first computer terminal is detected, wherein the subscriber also has a first telephone station connected to the first line. When a caller calls the first line and the first line is busy, the call is forwarded to a second telephone line associated with a call manager system. The call manager system determines when the subscriber is no longer accessing the computer network. At least partly in response to determining that the subscriber is no longer accessing the computer network, the call manager system transmits a text message to the caller, the message including the subscriber's phone number. The caller can then call back the first line using the transmitted phone number.

摘要： The present invention relates to telecommunications processing and managing product data using voice and data networks. A purchase is recorded in a telephonic processing system. A warranty duration is determined for the purchased item. A warranty start and end date is established for the item purchase. Claims instructions are sent to a user including a first phone address. A call from a caller directed to the first phone address is received at a telephonic processing system coupled to at least one network, wherein the call is associated with call signaling information. An outbound call is generated from the telephonic processing system to a second phone address wherein the second phone address is determined at least in part from the signaling information associated with the received call. The received call is connected to the first outbound call. Call detail attributes associated with the connected calls are recorded.

摘要： The present invention provides a call-return process and system, wherein a called party can return a missed call to a caller's private number. A forwarded call is received by a call management system, wherein the forwarded call was originally directed by a caller to a first telephone line associated with a user. The call management system receives call signaling information, including a phone number, associated with the caller. The call management system then determines whether the phone number is a private phone number or a public phone number. If the phone number is private, the call management system notifies the user of the call, and without revealing the caller's phone number to the user, enables the user to return the caller's call.

摘要： In a communication system which includes a plurality of stations interconnected for communications by a first bus, a second station includes a device, such as a processor, and a resource, such as a memory or a peripheral unit, interconnected for communication by a second bus. An interface mechanism connecting the first bus with the second bus allows the device to access the first bus over the second bus, and allows a first station to access the resource via the first and second buses. Deadlock detection circuitry detects cotemporaneous attempts by the device to access the first bus and attempts by the first station to access the resource. Deadlock resolution circuitry responds to deadlock detection by disconnecting the device from the second bus to allow the first station to access the resource, and by reconnecting the device to the second bus when the first station ceases to access the resource. If the device is operating under program control, the deadlock detection and resolution are transparent to the program.

摘要： A fax processing system handles faxes that are originally destined for a recipient's phone number. The fax processing system communicates with the fax recipient via a data communications network (for example, the Internet) and can provide more sophisticated fax handling capabilities than conventional fax machines.
