Abstract: A gatekeeper (109) including a compare unit (204) and a record unit (206). The compare unit (204) receives call requests and accesses a database which is a record of where a called party picked up the call, e.g., at home, at the office, via a mobile phone, or via an emergency number. The compare unit (204) performs an analysis such as a nullclosest neighbornull analysis to determine the location of the user at the time of day closest to that of the present call. The call is then routed to the user at that location. The record unit (206) then makes the appropriate notation in the database for the latest call.

Abstract translation: 包括比较单元（204）和记录单元（206）的网守（109）。 比较单元（204）接收呼叫请求并访问数据库，该数据库是被叫方在家中，在办公室，经由移动电话或经由紧急号码接收呼叫的方式的记录。 比较单元（204）执行诸如“最近邻”分析的分析，以确定在最接近当前呼叫的那一天的时间的用户的位置。 然后呼叫路由到该位置的用户。 记录单元（206）然后在数据库中进行适当的符号以进行最新的呼叫。

Abstract: A multimedia telecommunications system including an integrated audio stream manager (102) in association with the digital personal video stream manager. Such an integrated audio stream manager employs a personal computer (110) to record and store audio such as compact disk tracks. The personal computer (10) can then contact one or more Internet web sites for CD indices to download a list of the tracks and provide a master list of all CDs stored. The digital personal video stream manager (102) can then be used to supervise playback of the audio files via the connected audio system.

Abstract: Within a network environment, redundant capabilities for exchanging call-processing signals enhance reliability of telephony support for telephony endpoint devices. A data network, such as a telephony-over-local area network, provides primary support for the telephony endpoint devices, which may be telephony-enabled computers or Internet Protocol telephones. A second network has a first mode in which it is inactive with respect to telephony traffic to the telephony endpoint devices, but has a second mode in which call-processing signals are routed through the second network in response to a determination that the data network is disabled. As a result, telephone features such as call deflection may be continued when the primary support is disabled. In some implementations, the second network includes a third mode in which the voice information is also carried as a response to determining that the data network is disabled and the currently available bandwidth of the second network exceeds a threshold bandwidth level.

Abstract: A virtual private communications network (VPCN) and method of managing calls on the network. Communications devices are networked together over a private communications network. Each VPCN communications device has a unique private network identification (ID) code and can be contacted by dialing its respective ID. At least one of the VPCN communications devices is a wireless communications device, e.g., a cell phone, connected through a public wireless network to the private communications network. Calls to and from each such wireless device pass through the private communications network.
