Abstract: A method for user reporting of spam mobile messages includes causing mobile messages to pass through a filter node prior to delivery to a user and, in the filter node, creating a record corresponding to each mobile message. The record includes metadata extracted from the mobile message and the content of the mobile message. Each record is stored in an archive and each message is then routed to the user. The method also includes receiving a report message from the user indicating that a mobile message received by the user is a spam mobile message, retrieving the record corresponding to the spam mobile message from the archive, and associating the metadata in the retrieved record with the report message.

Abstract: The invention relates to a system and method of managing SMS messages in a first mobile operator network, said network comprising a plurality of subscribers and a Short Message Service Centre (SMSC) The invention can be implemented by carrying out the steps of starting a delivery attempt of the SMS message from a first subscriber to a second subscriber via said SMSC; intercepting transparently said SMS message delivery attempt from the first subscriber in the network before delivery of said SMS message; routing said intercepted SMS message delivery attempt via a smart services control node in the network; examining said message delivery attempt for possible invocation of a smart service to said SMS message; and invoking said smart services for said SMS message destined to said subscriber in response to said examination. The invention can be implemented in a single network or between two or more networks.

Abstract: A message service entity of a first mobile operator network receives an SMS message and inspects delivery trail information associated with the received message. The message service entity controls invocation of a message-handling service for the received message based on the inspected delivery trail information. The delivery trail information can be carried with the message and the step of inspecting delivery trail information associated with the received message can comprise inspecting the delivery trail information carried with the message. Alternatively, the message service entity stores delivery trail information for messages previously processed by the message service entity, and the step of inspecting delivery trail information associated with the received message comprises using an identifier in the received message, or derived from the received message, to access the stored delivery trail information.

Abstract: A virtual mobile node (22) has a pseudo HLR (23) and a pseudo MSC (24). It transfers an SMS message between an entity in a foreign mobile network having a different technology to an SMS entity connected to the local network. The pseudo HLR and MSC are both located in the home network but operate with the protocol of the foreign network. Thus, communication between the home and foreign networks is via SS7 signalling.

Abstract: The present invention relates to curing light devices for use in dentistry. Specifically, this invention relates to curing light devices generating convergent and uniform light with high intensity. The curing light device has a handle portion and a front portion wherein a light module is located in a desirable position in the interior of the front portion. The light module may include a light source comprising at least three LEDs in a compact manner, an optical element adapted to direct and/or focus the LEDs, and a lens cap to protect the LEDs and the optical elements. The lens cap may include a peripheral groove extending more than half of the periphery of the lens cap, which provides a longer engagement portion and thus a more secured attachment when “over-centeredly” engaging with a receiving edge on the light emitting end.

Abstract: A messaging applications router (MAR, 1) has router notes (RNs) which interface with external short message service centers (SMSCs). A management node (MN, 12) and each router node maintain a DNS server, and in the routing nodes the DNS servers are linked with a routing agent (RA). Each router node binds to SMSCs transparently to the ESMEs depending upon current load distribution and configuration settings.
