Patent number: 9456333Abstract: A mobile device utilizes a two-stage dialing solution when roaming on a visited mobile operator (MO) network to implement centralized routing so that a home network portion of a hybrid network is inserted into the path of outbound calls. A remote centralized routing (CR) service interoperates with a CR client on the mobile device. When a call is initiated to a remote party, the CR client calls into an arbitrary roaming routing number that is terminated in the home network. Once the call is connected between the mobile device and home network, the CR client sends a dialing string that includes a destination number of the remote party. The CR service calls the destination number and then bridges the calls to the mobile device and remote party to establish an end-to-end call path between the local and far ends of the call that traverses the home network.Type: GrantFiled: July 9, 2014Date of Patent: September 27, 2016Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Mahendra Sekaran, Vijay Kishen Hampapur Parthasarathy, Anish Desai, Ramkumar Natarajan, Jeffrey Kay, John Bruner, Ray Froelich, Tript Singh Lamba, Bayo Olatunji, Amey Parandekar, Vishal Ghotge, Andrew Peter Schoorl, Eugen Pajor, Shaun Pierce, Dhigha Sekaran, Frank Stephen Serdy, Jr., John Skovron, Reid Kuhn

Patent number: 9407621Abstract: Concepts and technologies are described herein for a mechanism by which participants who have been invited to attend a conference event can provide authentication credentials to join the conference event via a console application. When an individual attempts to join a conference event via a console application, the individual is prompted to provide his or her authentication credentials to join the conference event. The console application may inherit the individual's permissions during the conference event.Type: GrantFiled: September 26, 2014Date of Patent: August 2, 2016Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Mohammad Nasir Vakil, Anton Krantz, Dhigha Sekaran, Vijay Kishen Hampapur Parthasarathy

Publication number: 20160044096Abstract: Scaling up and scaling out of a server architecture for large scale real-time applications is provided. A group of users may be provisioned by assigning them to a server pool and allotting them to a group. Grouped users help to reduce inter-server communication when they are serviced by the same server in the pool. High availability may be provided by choosing a primary server and one or more secondary servers from the pool to ensure that grouped users are serviced by the same server. Operations taken on the primary server are synchronously replicated to secondary servers so that when a primary server fails, a secondary server may be chosen as the primary for the group. Servers for multiple user groups may be load balanced to account for changes in either the number of users or the number of servers in a pool. Multiple pools may be paired for disaster recovery.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 19, 2015Publication date: February 11, 2016Applicant: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Sankaran Narayanan, Namendra Kumar, Krishnan Ananthanarayanan, Vijay Kishen Hampapur Parthasarathy, Dhigha Sekaran, Vadim Eydelman, Bimal K.

Publication number: 20150326727Abstract: A visual voicemail (VVM) service uses the MMS (Multimedia Message System) system as a transport mechanism to deliver a voicemail payload to a client VVM application on a mobile device such as a cellular phone or smartphone. The payload is identified as a voicemail using a specific identifier included in a WAP (Wireless Application Protocol) Push message that provides a URL (Uniform Resource Locator) that the VVM client application follows to download the voicemail as an attachment to an MMS message from the VVM service. Regular MMS messages that are not associated with the specific identifier are handled by a conventional messaging application on the mobile device while VVM messages are handled by the client VVM application for presentation in visual form on a user interface supported by the mobile device.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 7, 2014Publication date: November 12, 2015Inventors: Anish Desai, Mahendra Sekaran, Vijay Kishen Hampapur Parthasarathy, Ruchir Astavans, Bayo Olatunji, Clif Gordon, Gang Li, Pradipta Kumar Basu

Patent number: 8850522Abstract: Concepts and technologies are described herein for a mechanism by which participants who have been invited to attend a conference event and who are physically present within a conference event environment, such as a meeting room, can provide authentication credentials to join the conference event via a conference event environment system. When an individual attempts to join a conference event via a conference event environment system, the individual is prompted to provide his or her authentication credentials to join the conference event via the conference event environment system to participate in the conference event. The conference event environment system may inherit the individual's permissions, such as in regards to whether or not the individual has been permitted to present content during the conference event. A conference event roster may be used to indicate that the individual has joined the conference via the conference event environment system.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 2012Date of Patent: September 30, 2014Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Mohammad Nasir Vakil, Anton Krantz, Dhigha Sekaran, Vijay Kishen Hampapur Parthasarathy

Patent number: 8234559Abstract: A method and system for increasing the computational and network efficiency of presence servers having collections of publications is provided. The presence system uses several techniques that enable a presence server to provide rich presence information without requiring expensive processing. First, the presence system accepts batches of publication updates in a single presence update request. Similarly, the presence system accepts batches of subscription requests. Next, the presence system supports new expiration types for publication update requests that eliminate the need for a publishing user to continually refresh presence information that has not changed. Finally, the presence system accepts access lists that contain membership groups rather than an individual list of users that are to have access to a particular presence collection.Type: GrantFiled: March 31, 2006Date of Patent: July 31, 2012Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Shaun D.

Publication number: 20120159234Abstract: Described are embodiments directed at providing resilient services using architectures that have a number of failover features including the ability to handle failover of an entire data center. Embodiments include a first server pool at a first data center that provides client communication services. The first server pool is backed up by a second server pool that is located in a different data center. Additionally, the first server pool serves as a backup for the second server pool. The two server pools thus engage in replication of user information that allows each of them to serve as a backup for the other. In the event that one of the data centers fails, requests are rerouted to the backup server pool.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 15, 2010Publication date: June 21, 2012Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Bimal Kumar Mehta, Vijay Kishen Hampapur Parthasarathy, Sankaran Narayanan, Erdinc Basci

Publication number: 20100318397Abstract: Architecture that provides synchronization of delegation permissions between discrete delegation models. For example, the synchronization of the delegation permissions (of a delegator and delegatee) can be performed between a delegation component of a scheduling system and a delegation component of a conferencing system such that the delegatee not only accesses the scheduling system on behalf of the delegator but also the conferencing system on behalf of the delegator. A synchronization component synchronizes the delegation permissions between the server systems (delegation components). Once synchronized, the delegatee administers the communications session, based on on-behalf-of information is validated, the delegatee can then establish the communications session.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 12, 2009Publication date: December 16, 2010Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Vishal Singh, Murtaza H.
