Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for routing user communication data to a user associated with at least a first user device and a second user device operable in a communication system, including proxying a data message between the first user device and a presence server, extracting, from the data message, information indicative of an availability of the user, and routing user communication data to at least one of the first user device and the second user device based at least in part on the extracted information.

Abstract: Systems and methods for reconfiguring scan chains are provided. A representative system incorporates a first scan chain of flip-flops operative in either a normal mode or a rotate mode such that, if the first scan chain is operative in the normal mode, inputs are provided to the flip-flops in sequential order with a first of the flip-flops receiving an input prior to a second of the flip-flops, and, if the first scan chain is operative in the rotate mode, inputs are provided to the flip-flops with the first of the flip-flops receiving an input subsequent to the second of the flip-flops.

Abstract: Systems and methods for designing integrated circuits (ICs) are provided. A representative method includes: providing a netlist; determining components required to implement test of at least a portion of the integrated circuit defined by the netlist; provide a revised netlist including the components determined; and performing a place and route operation with respect to the revised netlist.

Abstract: A scan test architecture is implemented. The scan test architecture provides a method of performing scan test of unbalanced scan chains. The scan test architecture generates a control signal (i.e., masking signal) to mask bits in an unbalanced scan chain. In one embodiment, the control signal is generated with a logic gate, a comparator, and a counter.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method, program product and system for facilitating efficient development and deployment of features in a voice over internet protocol telephony system comprising protocol specific equipment. The method and program product comprise: developing a feature for deployment in the telephony system using a developer protocol, the developer protocol being independent of any specific VoIP protocol, and performing communication protocol conversion between the developer protocol and a specific VoIP protocol used by the telephony system on feature-related messages in order to communicate with the protocol specific equipment.
