Abstract: An embodiment may involve receiving digital behaviorome data collected using sensors associated with a computing device and determining one or more user baseline models comprising statistical relationships between at least two of the plurality of user interaction features.

Abstract: An access controller is coupled to an access point and receives data packets from connected user equipment. The access controller is configured to perform packet inspection techniques on the received packets to determine if they should be locally switched. In some embodiments, packets destined for a local intranet services may be locally switched to avoid congesting a core network link. In further embodiments, a local connection to the Internet may be used so that locally switched packets can also be directed to the Internet without the use of a core network link. In still further embodiment, in addition to packet inspection techniques, the access controller maintains a state table for the states of connected user equipment. The access controller may use the information in this table to further decide whether to perform local switching techniques.

Abstract: A system and method for establishing a multimedia session between a wireless user terminal and a network device. Embodiments include systems and methods for receiving a request from a wireless terminal initiating a call event to the network device; generating and sending a multimedia session invitation to a multimedia call control entity requesting a multimedia session with the network device; receiving a multimedia status message from the multimedia call control entity indicating the progress of initiating the multimedia session; and triggering setup of a radio access bearer to handle the multimedia session in response to the multimedia status message.

Abstract: A method and system for inter-working between UMA and SIP signaling are described. In one embodiment, an exemplary method includes receiving UMA messages of mobile devices, and transforming each UMA message into a format facilitating inter-working between the UMA and SIP protocols for the mobile devices.

Abstract: A method and apparatus to facilitate use of session initiation protocol (SIP) messages for location services are described. In one embodiment, a method for a mobile device includes determining that at least one current network characteristic exceeds a threshold, including the current network characteristic in a SIP message, and transmitting the SIP message to a wireless local area network (WLAN).

Abstract: A method and apparatus of handoff decision making for heterogeneous network environments are described. In one embodiment, the method includes receiving session initiation protocol (SIP) messages from a mobile device via a wireless local area network (WLAN). The SIP messages contain data identifying at least one current network characteristic. The method further includes determining whether a handoff trigger for the mobile device is detected using the current network characteristic.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for performing call-processing functions of wide-area mobile voice calls over a wireless local-area network (WLAN) are provided. Such methods allow the extension of wide-area call-processing protocols such as Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) or Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) into a WLAN which uses a completely different air-interface than GSM or CDMA. Such methods enable wide-area mobile voice communications to be available in a WLAN without the use of any Voice over IP (VOIP) related technologies such as SIP or H.323.
