  • Systems, methods, devices and arrangements for emergency call services
    Patent number: 8879540
    Abstract: A variety of methods, systems, devices and arrangements are implemented for emergency call centers. According to one such method, a location database is populated from a plurality of endpoint devices. The location database determines locations for nodes in a data transmission route from information received from the endpoint devices. Emergency calls using these nodes are located using the populated database.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 3, 2010
    Date of Patent: November 4, 2014
    Assignee: 8x8, Inc.
    Inventors: Bryan Martin, Garth Judge

  • Systems, Methods, Devices and Arrangements for Cost-Effective Routing
    Publication number: 20110149950
    Abstract: A variety of methods, systems, devices and arrangements are implemented for assessing and/or controlling call routing for VoIP/VioIP calls. According to one such method, endpoint devices are used to monitor and/or assess the call-quality. The assessment is sent to a centralized server arrangement and call-routing is controlled therefrom. Endpoint devices employ a decentralized testing mechanism to further monitor and assess call quality including the use of test connections. Aspects of call quality are analyzed and attributed to endpoint devices and/or local connections or networks to distinguish intermediate routing issues from local/endpoint issues.
