Abstract:
A call-tracking system and a method performed by a call-tracking system is provided where information contained in a trackable message received from a service provider and associated with a first telephone number of a first user equipment addressed to a second user equipment associated with a second telephone number is stored in a database. The message is also forwarded to the second user equipment, and if a trigger message comprising the second telephone number and the first telephone number is received by the call-tracking system, it is determined whether the two telephone numbers of the trigger message correspond to the previously stored telephone numbers stored associated with each other in the database and, whether the call has been made within a predetermined time interval. If the two mentioned conditions are fulfilled, the call is considered to be associated with the advertisement provided to the second user equipment in the message.
Abstract:
A method and system for generating output from an electronic reading device is based on a detected position of the electronic reading device relative to a predefined address pattern on a specially formatted paper. Based on a periodic detection of successive positions of the electronic reading device, a printer on the electronic reading device is activated in a manner such that stored text or graphics are printed on the specially formatted paper. The printing can be accomplished, for example, using a thermo-print head of the electronic reading device in connection with a thermal sensitive paper. Either as an alternative to or in addition to printing, the electronic reading device can also generate an audio output based on the detected location of the electronic reading device.
Abstract:
Java technology is combined with Bluetooth technology by enabling an access point (11) associated with a Java application (15) to use Bluetooth technology to access data which is stored in a portable Bluetooth communication device (13) and from which a Java object can be produced. The Java application (15) receives a Java object produced from the data, and can then perform a desired function using the Java object.
Abstract:
The invention relates to the organization of electronic messages (101) coming in to a user who can access his/her messages via at least two different types of access environments (130-165). A first storage area (100) receives the electronic messages (101), which each has an original data format. The electronic messages (101) are then stored according to a first structure (102). An agent (110) processes the electronic messages (101) into at least one set of processed electronic messages (113a-113c) having data formats, which are at least as adapted to an alternative access environment as the data formats of the corresponding original electronic messages. The processed electronic messages (113a-113c) are then stored according to at least one second structure (121a-121c) that is a mapping of the first structure (102). The user may either access an original electronic message (101) in the first structure (102) or one of the processed electronic messages (113a-113c) in the at least one second structure (121a-121c). The choice of message version is based on the type of access environment (130-165) that the user currently has at his/her disposal.
Abstract:
A method for spatializing audio in conference calls is described in which the participants in the calls are placed in particular locations in order to provide an additional dimension (direction) so that the participants can better recognize who is speaking. Also, the dimension of volume is provided, which can be used in creating background sub-conferences. Consequently, sub-conferences can be conducted in which the participants can move seamlessly between them and also listen to other sub-conferences being conducted in the background.
Abstract:
Wireless mobile communication devices automatically transmit therebetween information regarding the status of the devices. This permits the devices to be used effectively by members of a group or team performing a given task.
Abstract:
A method for call-tracking, call-tracking systems, an HTTP proxy server computer program, web server hosts, web server computer programs and computer program products are disclosed. The method comprises the following steps: forwarding a request for a web page; receiving a reply message comprising a second telephone number; retrieving and storing a first telephone number, the second telephone number, a time associated with the forwarding of the reply message, and a service provider indicator; receiving a trigger message comprising two telephone numbers; determining whether the two telephone numbers correspond to the first telephone number and the second telephone number; and, if the two telephone numbers correspond, determining, based on a time difference, whether the call has been made within a predetermined time or predetermined time interval; and, if the call has been made within the predetermined time or predetermined time interval, store information related to the call.
Abstract:
A system (10) and method are disclosed in which a server (24) and browser (26) are provided in a mobile phone (12, 22). A user of such a mobile phone (12, 22) has an assigned phone number that is mapped to that user's personal index web page. When a call is placed to that user, the caller's browser (26) is directed to and retrieves the user's personal web page. That web page can provide a significant amount of useful personal information about the user, such as, for example, "phoneto:" tags which can be used to automatically setup a call to the receiver (e.g., phone or terminal) specified by the tag.
