    Abstract: Controlling aggregation of shared content from multiple presenters during an online conference session includes, at a server having network connectivity, at a server having network connectivity, identifying a master presenter at an endpoint among a plurality of endpoints participating in an online conference session in which at least one of the plurality of endpoints is sharing content with other participants among the plurality of participants at their respective endpoints. One or more assistant presenters are determined among the plurality of participants at their respective endpoints. A master user interface is generated to serve as the user interface on the endpoint of the master presenter and a command is received, via the master user interface, to designate a layout. The layout aggregates shared content from the endpoints of one or more of the assistant presenters to make the layout viewable at the plurality of endpoints.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for an auto-complete function in a user's handwriting for touch screen devices is described. In one embodiment, the method includes receiving, from a touch-screen display, a handwriting input. The handwriting input is converted into textual information. Based on the textual information, one or more prompt options are generated. The one or more prompt options are rendered for display on the touch-screen display in a similar appearance as the handwriting input. The method can further include receiving a selected prompt option input and rendering the selected prompt option for display on the touch screen display in a similar appearance as the handwriting input.

    Abstract: Methods are provided in which a collaboration server connects at least two participants via respective user devices to a collaboration session. The collaboration server further distributes, to the respective user devices, media stream data and one or more customized graphical items that are distinguishably displayed in the collaboration session. The one or more customized graphical items are displayed in a foreground or a background associated with a collaboration space of first participant of the at least two participants. The collaboration server further detects a selection, by one of the respective user devices, of a graphical item from the one or more customized graphical items displayed in the collaboration space and performs at least one action associated with the graphical item during the collaboration session based on detecting the selection of the graphical item.

    Abstract: Presented herein are techniques in which a device connects a plurality of user devices to a communication session in which a plurality of participants of the respective plurality of user devices communicate using audio and/or video and determines respective locations of the plurality of user devices. The devices receives, from a particular user device of the plurality of user devices, a request to group the user devices into a plurality of groups to form one or more breakout communication sessions off of the communication session, assigns user devices to respective ones of the plurality of groups based on the respective locations such that user devices at a common location are assigned to a same group, and transmits information identifying the plurality of groups to the particular user device

    Abstract: In one embodiment, instant messages or collaboration messages are organized in subgroups. A device is configured to receive data indicative of collaborative messages, identify a subgroup identifier from a first collaborative message of the collaborative messages, and encode the first collaborative message for transmission to a subgroup of receiving endpoint devices. The device identifies a second collaborative message and encodes the second collaborative message for transmission to a group of receiving endpoint devices including the subgroup of receiving endpoint devices. The first collaborative message is sent to or displayed by the subset of receiving endpoint devices and the second collaborative message is sent to or displayed by the receiving endpoint devices including the subgroup. The encoding is performed at the endpoint device or an associated server.
