Abstract: Efficient processing and/or routing of emergency calls in an IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) for VoIP (Voice over IP) subscribers can be enabled. In one aspect, an E911 profile is generated, for example, by an application server, for each VoIP subscriber based in part on current location information associated with the subscriber, such as, the subscriber's IP address. The E911 profile is pushed to the HSS (Home Subscriber Server) of the IMS. The E911 profile can then be stored in the HSS and can be queried by an E-CSCF (Emergency Call Session Control Function) during emergency call processing. Moreover, when an emergency call is received from the subscriber, the E-CSCF can retrieve the E911 profile associated with the subscriber from the HSS and route the call to an appropriate PSAP (Public Safety Answering Point) based on an analysis of the information in the E911 profile.

Abstract: A stylus system and method for determining the three-dimensional position and orientation of a stylus operating within a volume located above a surface of a display device is described. In some embodiments, the stylus system includes a stylus and a display device. The stylus senses one or more magnetic fields generated from a set of transmitting coils associated with the display device and transmits sensing information over an RF channel to a receiver in the display device. The display device determines the three-dimensional position of the stylus by applying a cell-based position reconstruction technique that compares the received sensing information with predetermined magnetic field values associated with one or more predetermined regions located above the surface of the display device. The cell-based position reconstruction technique accommodates magnetic field distortions due to the presence of conductive elements within or near the display device.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for selectively applying First Delivery Attempt (FDA) processing for text messages. A text message system in one embodiment includes a rules database that stores rules defining which text messages are authorized to be delivered using FDA processing. The text message system further includes a message processor that initially receives a text message, and determines whether to selectively apply FDA processing for a time period due to an occurrence of a triggering event. If selective FDA processing applies, then the message processor processes the rules in the rules database to determine whether the text message is authorized for FDA processing during the time period of selective FDA processing. If authorized, then the message processor forwards the text message to an FDA system for FDA processing. If not authorized, then the message processor forwards the text message to a store-and-forward system for store-and-forward processing.
