Abstract:
The architecture facilitates the association of resources (e.g., hardware software) with a meeting location such as a conference room or conference space. Additionally, the room and resources can be associated with a realtime conference or meeting at the meeting location. Still further, the resources can be automatically joined to the meeting being held in the room, for both the organizer of the meeting and the remote participants of the meeting. The resources are network addressable and register to a communications infrastructure for online availability. The architecture automatically joins the conference room resources to any conference or call that is being held in the locale (e.g., room) of the conference, and which the user has joined using a realtime conferencing application. The resources distributed across multiple meeting locations can be utilized for a single session, as well.
