Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To unify a telephonic communication component with a data server component.SOLUTION: This system can facilitate accessing rich information in a server such as a messaging server by telephone. This rich information can include e-mail content, calendar content, contacts information, or the like. Moreover, with access to an application programming interface, the invention can add functionality to initiate e-mail communications as well as to accept or cancel meetings. Furthermore, the invention can synchronize messages of disparate formats. For example, an user can set an "Out of Office" status on both an e-mail system and a telephone voice-mail system from one location in one action. In another aspect, messages or data components can be analyzed, transformed, matched and/or communicated from one system to another in accordance with the subject invention.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a server in a remote telecommunications network which translates information from a caller to a format intended for a subscriber, automatically transfers the translated information to a subscriber device without requesting the initiation of a transfer process to the subscriber, and transfers suppression signals with the translated information, and to provide a telecommunications system. SOLUTION: A message center processes messages intended for a subscriber. A caller sends a message to the message center in a first caller format. The message center stores the message, notifies the subscriber, and awaits a request for the stored message from the subscriber. In response to the message request, the message center sends the stored message to the subscriber in a first subscriber format independent of the first caller format. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
Method and system for providing voicemail to a mobile telephone, in which the mobile telephone diverts a call to a voicemail server, such that the caller then leaves a voice message on the voicemail server. The voice message is converted to an audio file and the audio file is sent to a voice to text transcription system comprising a computer adapted to play back the voice message to an operator to enable the operator to transcribe the original voice message into the computer to generate a transcribed text message. The transcribed text message is sent to the mobile telephone, wherein the transcribed text message includes caller identification data comprising at least one of a caller telephone number and caller name.
