Patent number: 9854482Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for controlling the delivery of voice communications. A profile is created for the user of a mobile device that specifies the thresholds for switching between a cellular network and a wireless network to conduct voice communications as well as stores a list of contacts and associated security levels. If the signal strength of the cellular radio signal is below a threshold, then the mobile device detects one or more wireless networks that are in the area of the user of the mobile device. The profile of the user of the mobile device is then checked to determine if the mobile device is authorized to switch to one of the detected wireless networks to deliver voice communications based on a security level associated with the party communicating with the user. In this manner, the user is able to control the delivery of voice communications.Type: GrantFiled: April 21, 2015Date of Patent: December 26, 2017Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Darryl M.

Patent number: 9699832Abstract: A second cellular client delegates cellular communication to a first cellular client. The first cellular client determines that the first cellular client has been assigned to perform cellular communication for the second cellular client. The first cellular client receives a transmission from a cellular service-provider antenna intended for the second cellular client. The first cellular client sends a first command based on the transmission to the second cellular client.

Publication number: 20170167885Abstract: A global positioning system (“GPS”) receives a destination location from a current driver of a vehicle. A GPS route planning process of the GPS identifies potential routes for the vehicle to the destination location. A data analysis process of the GPS rates the potential routes based on how characteristics of the potential routes relate to characteristics of the current driver. The GPS route planning process selects a route for the current driver responsive to the ratings. The GPS displays the selected route to the driver on a display.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 10, 2015Publication date: June 15, 2017Inventors: DARRYL M. ADDERLY, JONATHAN W.

Patent number: 9619945Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for assisting a user in handling a vehicle service issue. A profile is created by a navigation system that stores preferences of the user, such as vehicle and vehicle service preferences (e.g., tire brands). The navigation system polls the vehicle sensors in the automobile diagnostic system periodically to interpret a status. If there has been a change in the status of a sensor (e.g., change in tire pressure) and if the change represents a service issue to be addressed, then a service issue has been identified. The navigation system then determines a change in the route the vehicle is currently traveling to reach a service destination (e.g., Discount Tire® store) to address the service issue (e.g., low tire pressure) taking into consideration the user's preferences (user's profile specified the Discount Tire® chain to handle all service issues relating to tires).Type: GrantFiled: March 26, 2015Date of Patent: April 11, 2017Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Darryl M.
