Publication number: 20150271110Abstract: A connection handling system such as a mobile device allows selection of status indicators on a per channel basis. Status indicators may include states such as busy, unavailable, in a meeting, in a theater, or on vacation. Channels may include calls, text messages, and email messages. Connection requests received at the connection handling system may be handled by rules specified for particular status indicators and particular channels. In some instances, phone calls may be handled by silencing the ringer, suppressing voice mail notifications, responding to the caller with an automated caller specific and/or status specific reply that includes an override code that allows the caller to break through if the call is urgent. Status indicator selection may be provided on settings pages, application pages, or on a lock screen of a mobile device.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 21, 2014Publication date: September 24, 2015Applicant: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventor: Craig Murray

Publication number: 20070208590Abstract: An architecture for facilitating provision of service includes a primary contact center and a federated customer service broker under control of a primary business, i.e., the business on behalf of which the customer service is to be provided. The broker accepts and maintains submissions from customer service providers (“Subscribers”) indicating levels of skill in various categories. Provision of customer service is enhanced by brokering customer service inquiries between a customer and the subscribers. In particular, the broker selects a subset of available subscribers with an appropriate level of skill in the categories required to response to the customer service inquiry, and prompts presentation of customer service options associated with the selected subset of subscriber to the customer. The subscribers may be independent contractors that provide customer service in exchange for payment either from the customer or from the primary business.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 1, 2007Publication date: September 6, 2007Inventors: Martin Rex Dorricott, Douglas Craig Murray Webster

Patent number: 7206972Abstract: A method for identifying service critical faults in a communications network and a network management system employing the method are provided. A service provisioning tool associated with the network management system and operating in accordance with the method, performs operations on a multitude of managed entity instances stored in a containment hierarchy associated with the network management system, the managed entity instances corresponding to managed field installed equipment. Received alarm information is used to ascribe operational states to corresponding managed entities in the containment hierarchy. Operating in accordance with the presented method, the service provisioning tool inspects low-level managed entities in the containment hierarchy and, if each managed entity of a group of low-level managed entities which provide a unitary function is “unavailable”, then the operational state of a corresponding high-level managed entity is set to the “unavailable” state.Type: GrantFiled: January 9, 2003Date of Patent: April 17, 2007Assignee: AlcatelInventors: Craig Murray Mansell Wilson, Richard Loeffler-Henry, Nicolas Fraiji

Publication number: 20060205454Abstract: A threshing front rotor inlet section and front bearing housing shroud assembly for an agricultural combine. The front rotor inlet section includes a center body or plate having a radial outer circumferential periphery and a substantially annular protuberance extending forwardly therefrom concentric with a rotational axis thereof. The protuberance has at least one slot extending radially therethrough defined by one or more edges and/or surfaces which face in the rotational direction and are raked back in the radial outward direction, for pushing crop material, radially outwardly for conveyance rearwardly by impeller augers or flights of the rotor. Other surfaces can also be provided around the outer periphery for pushing longer plant material away from spaces between the inlet section and bearing housing and shroud.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 17, 2006Publication date: September 14, 2006Inventors: Dale Tanis, Craig Murray, Mark Svitak

Patent number: 6778504Abstract: A bulk Soft Permanent Virtual Circuit (SPVC) trace processor is provided. The bulk SPVC trace processor receives notifications of newly established SPVCs and SPVC re-routing instances. The bulk SPVC trace processor submits SPVC connection trace commands to corresponding trace source network nodes, and retrieves trace transit list information therefrom. The aggregate SPVC transport path information derived from trace transit list information is stored and provided to higher network management and service provisioning functions. The bulk SPVC trace processor may also be employed to trace SPVC portions of Hybrid SPVCs. As SPVC connection tracing is necessary subsequent to a failure, load balancing techniques are used to spread SPVC connection tracing over time, network resources, and network partitions to prevent weighting down the network. Network planning and design functions previously built for Permanent Virtual Circuit (PVC) provisioning may be seamlessly upgraded in migrating to (H)SPVC connectivity.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 2002Date of Patent: August 17, 2004Assignee: Alcatel Canada Inc.Inventors: James Matthew Santry, Kevin Scott Cutler, Craig Murray Mansell Wilson, Gerald Bloch

Patent number: 5270957Abstract: An element is sampled from a defined group so that targeting can be effected within a range between a range greater than a first desired frequency and not more than a second desired frequency. Two data bases are established. The second data base contains elements not selected from the first data base. The element set for targeting is defined between element sets from the first data base and the second data base, thereby creating a composite random sampling of the elements. Testing can be effected on the target elements.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 1991Date of Patent: December 14, 1993Assignee: Southern California Edison Co.Inventor: L. Craig Murray
