Patent number: 11164193Abstract: A method includes receiving, at a server associated with a merchant, an identification token associated with a mobile device located in a service environment associated with the merchant, and receiving an address of a profile agent associated with and distinct from the mobile device. The identification token includes an opaque token generated by a source other than the mobile device. The method includes sending to the profile agent a request for a user profile associated with the mobile device, where the request includes the identification token, and receiving an opaque user profile responsive to the request. The method includes sending a personalized offer associated with the merchant to the profile agent based on the opaque user profile. The profile agent causes application of preferences and policies associated with the mobile device to the personalized offer to determine whether to forward the personalized offer to the mobile device.Type: GrantFiled: August 6, 2020Date of Patent: November 2, 2021Assignee: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P.Inventors: Sreenivasa Rao Gorti, David Patron, Paul Vanvleck, Javier B.

Patent number: 9854058Abstract: A third-party profile service based on a proxy server model is described, where a user's profile service resides at a URL, in contrast to a profile service that requires federation identity. A profile service is provided that augments location-based services offered by service providers targeting mobile users via, for example, wireless and Wifi Networks. Additional personalization is driven by identity/profile services. Participants in the scenario are not required to share an identity or profile (i.e., static federation is not required). The user establishes a single profile with a trusted provider, hands-off solicitations to a profile agent that operates on behalf of the user to apply policies and preferences. The agent also provides privacy and anonymity (opaqueness).Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2004Date of Patent: December 26, 2017Assignee: AT&T INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY I, L.P.Inventors: Sreenivasa Rao Gorti, David Patron, Paul VanVleck, Javier B.

Publication number: 20090106382Abstract: A notification service node to deliver notification messages is disclosed. The notification service node includes a processor and a memory accessible to the processor. The memory includes instructions executable by the processor to receive a notification message via an instant messaging network, where the notification message is intended for a user. The memory also includes instructions executable by the processor to identify a plurality of network-enabled devices that are associated with the user, to assign one of the network-enabled devices as a current device, and to send the notification message to the current device. The current device includes an agent module capable of discovering a second network-enabled device by communicating from the agent module to a second agent module of the second network-enabled device. The current device is capable of negotiating with the second network-enabled device for the second network-enabled device to render the content of the notification message.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 23, 2008Publication date: April 23, 2009Applicant: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P.Inventors: Javier B.
