Abstract: A system and method for partitioning call detail records (CDRs) is disclosed. CDRs are grouped and routed based on one or more digits of the billable telephone number or the billable mobile identification number (MIN). In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the last two digits of the billable telephone number or MIN are used. Once partitioned, the CDRs may be distributed across multiple processes for additional processing. In addition, subscriber, rate, and other information that may be necessary for usage processing is routed to processes based on the corresponding billable telephone number or MIN.
Abstract: A system and method for computerized metering, rating, billing and managing of account balances on an end computing device is disclosed herein wherein the end device may facilitate such processing whether the device is connected or is not connected to a network. The end device, furthermore, initiates communications with a host processor to obtain updated algorithms, rating tables and other accouterments necessary or desired to meter, rate, and process payments for transaction events. The end device initiates communications with the host processor or another end device to facilitate the synchronization of usage for pricing plans that span one or more devices.

Abstract: A system and method for performance monitoring of application code is disclosed. The system and method may be used, without any preparation work, to actively measure a production application or an application under development. Accurate data regarding the system and user functions that comprise the application are presented in a report. The report information may be analyzed to determine application code bottlenecks. The information regarding the code bottlenecks may then be used by an application developer to modify the code to reduce or eliminate bottlenecks.

Abstract: A telephone transaction processing system is disclosed. Processing of telephone transactions, such as credit card transactions, financial account debiting, or information collection, is facilitated by an agent that may be integrated into the transport of the carrier as an enhanced service, the telephone network of a local or long distance company, or a private branch exchange or computer or separate processor supporting said telephone call. The agent may be invoked through touch tones or voice commands by any party on a completed telephone call and may be invoked multiple times during a conversation.

Abstract: A system is described in which call processing considers unique information about the call to better serve the caller and/or to enable the called party to more efficiently handle the call. In one embodiment, the unique information considered by the call processor is information indicator digits, which may indicate to the called party whether to accept the call before the voice portion of the call is initiated.
