Abstract:
Local media rendering of a multi-party call, performed by a Client User Equipment. The media is encoded by each party in the call, and sent as a media stream to a Media server, and the media server receives a request for media streams from each Client User Equipment, each media stream in the request associated with a client priority. The Media server selects the media streams to send to each Client User Equipment, based on the request, and further such that the number of streams does not exceed a determined maximum number, which is based, e.g., on the available bandwidth.
Abstract:
To store voice information for identifying the voice of the opposite party in a telephone directory. A telephone directory management apparatus (100) according to a mode of the present invention is a telephone directory management apparatus (100) having telephone directory storage means (12) for storing a telephone number, and has registration means (24) for searching the telephone directory storage means (12) to check if a telephone number the same as the telephone number of the opposite party stored in call history storage means (11) for storing the telephone number of the opposite party and voice information for identifying the voice of the opposite party in an associated state is stored in the telephone directory storage means (12) and when a telephone number the same as the telephone number of the opposite party is stored in the telephone directory storage means (12), registering the voice information associated with the telephone number of the opposite party in the call history storage means (11) in a state of being associated with the telephone number the same as the telephone number of the opposite party in the telephone directory storage means (12).
Abstract:
An agent selection system for selecting agents during call routing in a contact center is provided. The agent selection system includes a data mining module to mine agent related data from preconfigured resources e.g., social networking sites. The agent selection system further includes a profile module to build one or more agent profile based on the mined agent related data. The agent selection system further includes a mapping module configured to map a customer profile in a customer work request with the one or more agent profile. The agent selection system further includes a selection module to select an agent for handling the customer work request based on mapping between the customer profile and the one or more agent profile.
Abstract:
An analyzer resource receives call information about outbound phone calls from multiple phone numbers to target phone numbers in a phone network. The analyzer resource analyzes the call information to detect likely unwanted call activity. Based on the analyzing, the analyzer resource produces a list of phone numbers from which one or more entities originate unwanted calls to the subscribers in the phone network.

Abstract:
A method for filtering a telephone call is provided. The method may comprise receiving from a caller the telephone call directed to a communication device associated with an intended call recipient. The received telephone call may be scored based on predetermined scoring criteria to create a score indicative of a desirability of the telephone call. Furthermore, the method may comprise comparing the score to a predetermined threshold score. Based on the comparison, the method may further comprise selectively classifying the telephone call as an unwanted telephone call. Furthermore, the method may comprise selectively rejecting the unwanted telephone call.

Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed for originating a call to a wireless number by a contact center while enforcing various compliance requirements. In one embodiment, a compliance server and a PBX cooperate to originate the call to the wireless number. The agent logs into the compliance server and the compliance server provides the agent with a wireless number to dial. The agent manually enters the wireless number using a phone connected to the PBX. The PBX queries the compliance server regarding establishing the wireless call. Upon authorization, the PBX establishes a first call leg to the compliance server, and a second call leg to the called party that is joined with the call leg to the agent's phone. Upon completion of the call, the agent dispositions the call to the compliance server, which then releases the first call leg. In response, the PBX then releases the second call leg.
Abstract:
One aspect relates to indicating at least partially relative to an at least one receiving communicating device a called entity information at least partially describing an at least one desired contacting or forwarding entity that an at least one contacting communicating device is attempting to contact. Another aspect can relate to transferring from at least one desired contacting or forwarding entity a called entity information at least partially describing the at least one desired contacting or forwarding entity which an at least one contacting communicating device is attempting to contact. Yet another aspect can relate to filtering out communications having at least one desired uniform resource identifiers that do not contain a prescribed called entity information matching a prescribed pattern.
