Filed:

Jan 9, 2007

Appl. No.:

11/651051

Inventors:

Donald Le Roy Mitchell - Bellevue WA, US

Assignee:

TeleCommunications Systems, Inc. - Annaplois MD

International Classification:

G06F 15/16

US Classification:

709203, 709202, 709245, 709246

Abstract:

The format of the Presence Information Data Format—Location Object (PIDF-LO) as defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) is extended or modified to accommodate, within the standard PIDF-LO format, an association of geospacial location to virtual content on the Internet. A filename of virtual content is associated with geospacial location information (either a specific location, zone, or direction). The filename is inserted into a section of a Presence Information Data Format-Location Object (PIDF-LO) compliant document as defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). In this way, geospacial location information is associated with Internet based virtual content using a standard PIDF-LO format.

International Classification:

H04W 4/02

US Classification:

4554563

Abstract:

iAlert_Enhanced_Alert_Manager enables a user to register an interest in their current location, as well as persons, places and/or things in which the user holds some regard. The iAlert_Enhanced_Alert_Manager provides notification and clarifying information to user's devices concerning events/happenstance that have occurred or are likely to occur within a proximity of registered persons, places, and/or things. The iAlert_Enhanced_Alert_Manager comprises data structures (e.g. an Affinity Table, a SPIN table, a SPIN-List Table, an Affinity-List Table, and a Keyword-List Table) to manage affinities, Spheres of Influence (SPINs), and relationships therebetween that may positively or negatively induce a person. Timely notification of events/happenstance to a user comprises the computation of iEvent-vectors and iAlert-vectors. An iEvent-vector contains fields pertaining to events/happenstance whereas an iAlert-vector comprises information pertaining to notifications. Transmission of a notification is determined as a function of the magnitude of an event/happenstance and the proximity of an event/happenstance to registered objects of interest.

International Classification:

H04W 4/16

US Classification:

370259

Abstract:

Dynamically selecting and facilitating stored caller information to a communications recipient device with a communications event, based on communication recipient credentials (e.g. IP address, MDN, etc.), preferences outlined in a subscriber profile associated with a relevant calling device, and other variables, e.g., time of day, location of calling device, etc. A subscriber is permitted to provision subscriber preferences and subscriber information associated with users of a subscribing communications device in to a subscriber profile, for use during a communications event. Subscriber preferences are defined to place restrictive conditions on stored subscriber information that may be transmitted with a communications event initiated by a corresponding communications device. A content collection node dynamically selects customized caller information via a subscriber information content collection process. Customized caller information is transmitted to appropriate recipient devices with a corresponding communication event.

International Classification:

H04L 29/08

US Classification:

709204

Abstract:

A resource selection server that performs crowd-sourced resource selection over a social networking service, absent a central ratings database. A device subscribed to a social networking service implementing the inventive resource selection server, may register as a resource offering a particular skill. Additionally, any device subscribed to a relevant social networking service may transmit a skill request to the inventive resource selection server, to request a best-fit resource be returned for a particular skill of interest. The resource selection server queries a subscriber account database to identify resources on a social networking service, registered to offer a requested skill. The resource selection server additionally prompts subscriber devices within ‘n’ degrees of separation of a requesting device, to submit real-time trust ratings for resources complying with a particular skill request. The resource selection server analyzes ratings submitted by selected subscriber devices to return a best-fit resource for a particular skill request.

International Classification:

H04W 4/90
H04W 76/50
H04W 4/021

Abstract:

A geospatial shape generator receives cell sector data for cell sectors, wherein the cell sector data characterizes geocoordinates of cell towers for the cell sectors and a radius of communication of each cell sector. The geospatial shape generator can generate a geospatial shape for the cell sectors. The geospatial shape server can also include a boundary coordinator that queries a Geographic Information System (GIS) for geographic coordinates for a particular region of interest within boundaries of each respective geospatial shape. The boundary coordinator can also determine a unique boundary for the particular region of interest, wherein the unique boundary is a combination of the geospatial shapes that encompass the particular region of interest. The geospatial shape server can include a call route control that routes emergency service calls that originate within the unique boundary to a particular network node of a public safety network.

Abstract:

A geospatial shape generator receives cell sector data for each of a plurality of cell sectors, wherein the cell sector data characterizes geocoordinates of a cell tower of each of the plurality of cell sectors, a radius of communication of each cell sector and a beam width of each cell sector. The geospatial shape generator can generate a geospatial shape for each of the plurality of cell sectors. The geospatial shape server can also include a boundary coordinator that queries a Geographic Information System (GIS) for geographic coordinates for each public interest structure within boundaries of each respective geospatial shape. The boundary coordinator can also determine an emergency region for each public interest structure of a plurality of public interest structures identified by the GIS. The geospatial shape server can include a call route control that provides a list of the plurality of public interest structures.
