  • Patent number: 7895316
    Abstract: The exemplary embodiments of the invention, as further described herein, provide apparatus, methods and computer program products that, for example, address the notification issue that can occur in extensible markup language (XML) document management (XDM) when a new entry is added to a Shared List document that is referred to from a Shared Group document. One non-limiting, exemplary method includes: in response to a user being added to a shared uniform resource identifier (URI) list, determining that the shared URI list is referred to by a shared group document; determining whether a group associated with the shared group document uses an automatic group advertisement feature; and, in response to determining that the group uses an automatic group advertisement feature, sending a group advertisement directly to the user.

  • Patent number: 7620389
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method and communication system allowing interception of a communication or connection of a target to be intercepted. According to preferred embodiments of the invention, interception triggering information is transmitted between the user plane and control plane (e.g. via Gr-, Gc-, Gi-interfaces). The system comprises at least one control means for handling signaling of a connection between a user equipment and another communication device, and a support element for transmitting traffic information between the user equipment and the another communication device. When the connection is to be intercepted, the control means is adapted to generate an interception information for informing the support element or another network element on an identification of the target to be intercepted. The support element is adapted to copy the traffic information to another network element for interception when receiving an interception information from the control means.

  • Patent number: 7565146
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for intercepting a connection established in a communication network system between a called terminal (B) and a calling terminal (A), said network system comprising at least two communication networks (HPLMN, VPLMN) having an interface towards each other, said called terminal (B) being registered to a subscriber database entity (HLR, HSS) of one of said communication networks (HPLMN) while being located in another one (VPLMN) of said communication networks, the method comprising the steps of: initiating a connection establishment from said calling terminal (A) towards said called terminal (B), requesting, during connection establishment, said subscriber database entity (HLR, HSS) to which said called terminal (B) is registered, for subscriber related information, detecting that said requested information contains an indication that connections to said called subscriber (B) are to be intercepted, and tapping the established connection between the called (B) and calling

  • Publication number: 20090080404
    Abstract: In a network enabling a communication between different devices, a network element may receive an indication of an active profile for at least one device. The indication of the active profile may then be used as a criterion for an operation in the network element. Moreover, a device may use a selected active profile as a criterion for determining presence information content, the presence information content indicating the availability of a user of the device for a communication. The presence information may then be transmitted to the network.

  • Publication number: 20090043847
    Abstract: In a communication system providing a group communication service, a group document server is configured to detect that a scheduled conference for a group is created or modified in a group information document, and to send to an appropriate application server a group advertisement message which is extended to include a new flag, which indicates whether this group is used for a scheduled conference or not. Upon receiving the message with the scheduled conference flag, the application server is adapted to fetch a respective group document from the group document server and with it also the information about the scheduled conference of the group. The application server then schedules the conference to initiate according to the received information.

  • Publication number: 20080256117
    Abstract: A method manipulates data that is or is to be stored at a server. The data has to be identifiable at the server via a data identifier that comprises an entity identity identifying an entity. A set of entity identities identifying the entity exists and comprises a primary entity identity and one or more other entity identities. The data is specific for the set of entity identities. The data is always identified in the manipulating via a data identifier comprising the primary entity identity. A method further stores such entity-specific data at a server. The data is stored only under the primary entity identity, and the data is associated with the other entity identities so that the data is also identifiable via a data identifier comprising one of the other entity identities. The invention further relates to corresponding devices, computer program products and a system.

  • Publication number: 20070255714
    Abstract: A system and method for authorizing multiple User IDs to access the same XML document without manually granting access rights to multiple User IDs. According to the present invention, when a new XML document is created, a network entity automatically performs a search to the user information register and retrieves all of the associated public user identities for the user. Rights to perform all XML document management functions are then given to all associated user-specific public user identities in addition to the used XCAP User Identifier.
