Abstract: A cost metric is associated with each of a plurality of calendar event parameters of a proposed calendar event. A calendar event cost projection is determined based upon, at least in part, the cost metric associated with each of the plurality of the calendar event parameters. The calendar event cost projection is compared to a calendar event budget. At least one of the plurality of calendar event parameters is selected based upon, at least in part, the comparison of the calendar event cost projection to the calendar event budget.

The estimated arrival time is provided to at least another invitee of the meeting.

Abstract: Systems and methods for managing voice collision in multi-party communications are generally provided. Embodiments herein may include identifying a voice collision between a first speaker and a second speaker in a multi-party call. One or more voice collision rules may be received. One of the first speaker and the second speaker to be determined to be a priority speaker based upon, at least in part, the one or more voice collision rules. Call bandwidth may be allocated to the priority speaker.

Abstract: A trust relationship may be established between a first email user and at least a second email user. At least one email message received by the second user is automatically propagated to the first user based upon, at least in part, the trust relationship.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computer system for receiving, at a remote computer device, a response time goal selected by an end user. The response time goal includes an interval when a next payload is to be received at a local computer device from the remote computer device. The remote computer device dynamically adjusts content of the next payload to be delivered to the local computer device based on the response time goal selected by the end user to allow the content of the next payload to be received at the local computer device within the response time goal selected by the end user.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computer system for enabling and supporting a presence server cache are described herein. A presence server cache may receive a plurality of requests to poll a status of a contact from a plurality of clients. The presence server cache may determine the status of the contact. If the status of the contact is unavailable at the presence server cache, the presence server cache may transmit a request for the status of the contact to a presence server. The presence server cache may transmit the status of the contact of the user to the plurality of clients.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and system for electronic communication is described. A first unified telephony session is selected. A first arbitrator associated with the first session is selected. A first set of participants associated with the first session is selected. The first arbitrator is directed to act as a proxy connection for a first channel associated with the first set of participants.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and system for determining a custom summary of a web conference is described. A first input associated with a first portion of a web conference is received. A first content associated with the web conference is selected based upon, at least in part, the first input. A custom summary of the web conference is determined based upon, at least in part, the selected first content and a relation associated with a socially-connected group.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and system for electronic communication is described. A first unified telephony session is selected. A first arbitrator associated with the first session is selected. A first set of participants associated with the first session is selected. The first arbitrator is directed to act as a proxy connection for a first channel associated with the first set of participants.

Abstract: A method for providing content-level data artifact recommendations can begin with the creation of a semantic library from the textual content of data artifacts by a newsworthy content recommendation engine. A base newsworthiness rating can be calculated using global newsworthiness parameters and behavioral functions that model newsworthy influences for each relationship contained in the semantic library. A user-specific search network can be generated that represents user-entered criteria and/or user task-related criteria. Within the semantic library, potential newsworthy semantic networks can be identified. Newsworthy content from each identified potential newsworthy semantic network can be dynamically determined based upon the base newsworthiness rating and a predefined newsworthiness threshold. The newsworthy content from the identified potential newsworthy semantic network can be related to the user-specific search network at the common node, creating a newsworthy content recommendation graph.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and system for injecting content in collaboration sessions is described. A method may comprise receiving, via one or more computing devices, a request from a third party to inject content into a collaboration session between two or more users. The method may further comprise monitoring, via the one or more computing devices, one or more communication platforms to detect a qualifying event associated with the request from the third party to inject the content into the collaboration session between the two or more users. The method may additionally comprise, in response, at least in part, to detecting the qualifying event associated with the request from the third party to inject the content into the collaboration session between the two or more users, injecting, via the one or more computing devices, the content into the collaboration session between the two or more users.

Abstract: A system and method for controlling the propagation of an email message includes defining at least a first email recipient and a second email recipient of the email message. A first email propagation policy associated with at least the first email recipient is defined, and a second email propagation policy associated with at least the second email recipient is defined. The email message is sent to the first email recipient and to the second email recipient.

Abstract: A trust relationship may be established between a first email user and at least a second email user. At least one email message received by the second user is automatically propagated to the first user based upon, at least in part, the trust relationship.

Abstract: A method and computer program product includes calculating a score for one or more communication sessions on a communication device, associating the score with the one or more communication sessions, and measuring a performance metric on the communication device. The performance metric may be indicative of a load on the communication device, and may be caused, at least in part, by the one or more communication sessions. If the performance metric on the communication device falls outside an acceptable value, a number of participants in at least one of the one or more communication sessions may be reduced based on the score associated with the at least one of the one or more communication sessions.

Abstract: Online location sharing through an internet service search engine includes: receiving in a server a query from a first user, the query identifying a second user; querying multiple internet services with the server over a network for real-time information regarding the second user; and providing a consolidated view of responses received from the plurality of internet services to the first user with the server, the server being authorized by the second user to receive all information relevant to the second user contained in the responses; wherein the consolidated view of responses indicates an online location of the second user.
