Abstract: A method for managing data in a communication network (10) includes a connection (20), in particular a switch, and at least one local communication terminal connected to the connection device (20). The connection device (20) is connected to or equipped with a second management information base (MIB), in which information related to the location of the communication terminal is written and is made available for use in a location-dependent service during a data management process, the location-dependent service being designed according to a discovery protocol. The data management process involves feeding the location-related information to the communication network (20) using a location information source (3) and transmitting the fed location-related information from the location information source (3) to the connection device. Across at least one section of the transmission path, the fed location-related information is transmitted according to the discovery protocol.

Abstract: In a method for capturing and transmitting motion data (s1) from a transmitter (103, 203) to a receiver (104, 204), motion data is captured by a capturing device (102, 202) at the transmitter end, said capturing device (102, 202) registering the motion of an object (106, 206) by means of at least one sensor (101, 201) and converting the registered motion into a digital signal (i2). Said digital signal is fed to the receiver, which embeds the data of the digital signal (i2) in a series (i3) of data and transmits said series of data to a receiver. In addition to or instead of the data of the digital signal, the series of data transmitted by the transmitter contains context data which the receiver uses to interpret and process the originally captured motion data within a defined context.

Abstract: In one aspect, a method for managing documents or partial documents in an electronic document folder is provided. A validity indication, which is individual to the document or partial document and specifies a validity expiry time is assigned to a respective document, e.g. an e-mail, or a partial document, e.g. an e-mail attachment and is stored, the indication being assigned to an executable validity program. Once the validity expiry time has been reached, the executable validity program, assigned to the validity indication, is executed for the document or partial document with an assigned validity indication. The executable validity program comprises a deletion routine for deleting the document or partial document with the assigned validity indication in the electronic document folder.

Abstract: After the input of a subscriber (TLN1) of the first terminal (EG1), a connection to a temporarily available voice memory (SPS) is signalized by the same, and subsequently a voice message (spn) and at least one piece of retrieval information (ai) identifying the second terminal (EG2) is transmitted and stored at that location. Subsequently, the connection is terminated and the second terminal (EG2) is informed of the presence of a retrievable voice message (spn) in the voice memory (SPS) via the voice memory (SPS) by means of the at least one piece of retrieval information (ai), and the voice message (spn) can be retrieved from the second terminal (EG2) by means of the transmitted retrieval information (ai), or is transmitted to the second terminal (EG2) by the voice memory (SPS). In this manner voice messages (spn) can be stored for terminals (EG2) and retrieved by the same, regardless of whether one or no voice memories—such as an answering machine—is associated with these terminals (EG2).

Abstract: A mobile terminal device determines whether it is located in the local radio area of the network or in another radio area and the determined radio area is indicated to an application of the network. The application is used to control a communication request addressed to the mobile terminal device. Communication requests coming in on the network can be directly switched to the local radio area using the application or can be directly forwarded to the mobile radio address in the mobile radio network of which the mobile terminal device is located, thereby avoiding or substantially reducing roaming or forwarding of communication requests from the local radio area to another radio area and thereby achieving an economical operation of mobile telephone terminal devices with local radio area.

Abstract: A location information (li) which is available in a mobile terminal device (ME-T) and which indicates the geographical location of the terminal device (ME-T) is embedded in messages (m) of a SIP protocol (SIP) which are exchanged between the terminal device (ME-T) and the network (WLAN) during the establishment of a session and/or during a session and/or during the registration of a terminal device (ME-T) in the network (WLAN), e.g. LAN or UMTS, or during request of a service or a function. By advantageously complementing the SIP protocol (session initiation protocol), the location information can be transmitted from a mobile terminal device (ME-T), which optionally has a telephone function, to the network (WLAN) in any signaling state, thereby substantially reducing the economic outlay for implementing the transmission of location information (li) to the network (WLAN).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for providing communication in a VoIP communication network having a multiplicity of network nodes, in which a) at least one first subscriber terminal in the VoIP communication network stores a first item of information containing at least one VoIP connection property desired by the user of the first subscriber terminal in at least one first network node of the VoIP communication network, wherein b) when a second subscriber terminal wishes to connect to the first subscriber terminal, b1) the second subscriber terminal requests the first item of information from the first network node, b2) the second subscriber terminal forms at least one data element that describes the connection on the basis of at least the first item of information, b3) the second subscriber terminal transmits the data element that describes the connection to a functional element which is assigned to the network and switches through direct connections between communication partners, and wherein c) the funct

Abstract: A mobile device which is assigned to a person transmits an identification to a central device where localization of the mobile device is initiated. After the mobile device has been located in an area of an access system, the identification is checked for authorization for access via the access system. Access via the access system is either allowed or denied based on the result of the check. Access by an authorized person to secure areas or devices with the aid of a wireless device which is usually carried along—for example a mobile radio terminal or a DECT terminal—thus becomes considerably easier and more convenient.
