  • Patent number: 11019013
    Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, receiving an image, delivery instructions, and metadata associated with the image from a first device associated with a first user. The delivery instructions indicate to deliver the image to a second device associated with a second user, and the delivery instructions comprise security features and the metadata comprises a plurality of security preferences for delivery. Further, the plurality of security features and the plurality of security preferences are implemented on the image. In response to determination of a security risk due to the implemented security features or security preferences, the image is not delivered to the second device and a message is delivered to the first device indicating that the image was not delivered. Other embodiments are disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20010052023
    Abstract: Application information is sent from an ADSI server to an ADSI compatible device using TCP/IP. Application protocol information is encapsulated according to ADSI message layer and datalink layer protocol specifications to form a bit stream of application information. The bit stream of application information is passed to a socket interface of a TCP/IP protocol stack in the server to form a TCP/IP representation of the application information. The TCP/IP representation of the application information is sent from the ADSI server to the ADSI compatible device over a TCP/IP based network. The TCP/IP representation of the application information is received into a TCP/IP protocol stack in the ADSI compatible device. The bit stream of application information is retrieved from a socket interface of the TCP/IP protocol stack in the ADSI compatible device. The application protocol information is unencapsulated from the retrieved bit stream of application information.

  • Patent number: 6061512
    Abstract: A development system for generating an automated server application program includes a server and a development tool. The server is responsive to a set of server control signals for providing a service to an expanded capability telephone via a telephone network, the service being in the form of signals that are exchanged with the expanded capability telephone. The development tool generates the set of server control signals, and operates by generating a set of graphical interfaces for displaying current service parameters to a developer, and receiving new values of the service parameters from the developer. A set of objects are provided in the development tool, each possessing predefined properties and exhibiting predefined behavior, whereby the set of objects defines the functionality of the development tool.
