Abstract:
Upon detection of a failure of a communication link between a remote management system and a communication node, a bypass link is established. The remote management system evaluates whether additional communication nodes can act as a bypass for management communications between the remote management system and the communication node whose management communication link has failed. The remote management system instructs a selected bypass communication node to establish the bypass management communication link between the bypass node and the disconnected node whose management communication link has failed. Depending on the relationship between nodes, management communications sent using the bypass link may be secured. The bypass link in some implementations may include multiple bypass communication nodes linked together to provide a chain of bypass management communication links between the remote management system and the disconnected communication node.
Abstract:
Systems, methods, apparatus and software enable intelligent agent features for user nodes that are members of a communication group. Instructions instantiate an intelligent agent node as a member of the communication group. Each intelligent agent node can be instantiated by a communication group management system, an intelligent agent system and/or by one or more of the communication group members, for example by executing software on one or more computing systems or devices. A variety of services and other assistance can be provided by intelligent agent member nodes, including recording communications, auditing communications, providing audio transcription, annotating media, and paging communication devices, including communication nodes that are not members of the communication group. Communications between personal communication nodes and any intelligent agents can be secure.

Abstract:
Data transfers between communication node members of a communication node group are routed to and from a data cache network that includes a cache node. Data sent by one node to another node is first sent to the cache network. A cache network deposit channel is opened between the first node and the cache network. The first node sends the data to the cache network, which stores the data in the cache node. To retrieve the data, the second node uses a retrieval channel opened between the cache network and the second node. The data is then transmitted from the cache network to the second node. Multiple deposit channels and retrieval channels can be opened and utilized as needed.
