Abstract: A device detects that a first user device is calling a second user device while the second user device is calling the first user device, and sends a notification to the first user device or the second user device indicating that the first user device and the second user device are calling one another. The device receives a response to the notification indicating that the first user device and the second user device are to be connected for a call, designates the first user device or the second user device as a call originator, and connects the first user device and the second user device for the call.

Abstract: In a method for checking a subscriber line with a first and a second electrical line, wherein each line is connected to an encoder/decoder via a subscriber line circuit, the first line is connected to ground, a resistance of the second line is increased, an audio signal is outputted from the encoder/decoder to the first line; and a first frequency-selective signal is measured at a point at which the encoder/decoder is connected to the first line. Further, the second line is connected to ground, a resistance of the first line is increased, a further audio signal is output from the encoder/decoder to the second line, and a second frequency-selective signal is measured at a point at which the encoder/decoder is connected to the second line. An amplitude difference between the first and second frequency-selective signals is ascertained.

Abstract: A computing device includes a processing unit and a system memory connected to the processing unit. The system memory includes instructions that, when executed by the processing unit, cause the processing unit to: retrieve a pool of telephone numbers; analyze repeating digits and perform pattern matching for each number in the pool of telephone numbers; associate a memorability score with one or more of the numbers in the pool of telephone numbers; and sort the pool of telephone numbers based on the memorability score to create a sorted list of numbers.

Abstract: Method of confirming the establishment of a voice connection, such as a VoIP connection, between first and second end stations coupled to a packet switched communications network. The voice connection is used to transfer an audible request from the first end station to the second end station, to ask the user of the second end station to generate a predetermined vocal response. The first end station compares any response from the second end station to the predetermined vocal response. The connection is determined to be established in response to a successful comparison. The predetermined vocal response includes a predetermined speech sequence comprising characters, a word or words, and a speech recognition procedure is applied to the received response to determine the presence of any speech sequence for comparison with the predetermined sequence. If a fault is detected an alternative connection is established to execute a process to correct the fault.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product for dynamically adapting selections in an automatic phone support system is described. The invention may integrate a dynamic knowledge base of responses with the menu selections on an automated phone system or other response system to present the most frequently used items earlier in the option list, or otherwise order options and information. Call data may be captured from single callers or historical ensembles of callers. An automatically generated similarity relationship may be used to initialize the system without historical call data, based on textual similarity or other techniques. Prioritization of options provides a more enjoyable, efficient experience for callers without increasing administrative overhead.
