Abstract: The description generally provides for systems, methods, and computer readable media for creating a unified wireline/wireless communication network. Data is received that includes a signaling portion and a media portion. The signaling portion is separated into a first set of data and a second set of data. The first set of data includes mobile management functions and the second set of data includes features, applications related functions, or any combination thereof.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for providing user interaction functionality in connection with providing call services (e.g., toll-free calls, 900 calls, calling card calls, etc.) in an intelligent network, especially, but not necessarily only, an advanced intelligent network. More specifically, an apparatus is provided in association with a given service control point (that offers a given call service). According to the present invention, user information needed to set up or otherwise provide the call service (e.g., a calling card number) is collected and, if needed, feedback is provided to the user. In particular, the feedback is customized with respect to a particular user (e.g., using language and/or dialect corresponding to a geographic location of the user). Collecting user information can include speech recognition, including speech recognition across multiple languages and synonymous terms.
