Patent number: 8687773Abstract: A system and method for interfacing unified message processing systems with legacy voice mail, e-mail and facsimile systems, located behind corporate firewalls. The system includes a unified message server, a proxy interface and a message protocol convertor. The proxy interface is configured to access the legacy system in response to a request from a unified message server. Messages stored on the legacy system are converted by a protocol convertor to a predetermined format compatible with the unified message server. The converted messages are then transferred to a unified message server which is capable of providing messages from different messaging system, such as voice mail, e-mail and facsimile to users in a predetermined format. The invention permits enterprise wide communication systems to provide unified messaging without abandoning pre-existing legacy messaging system.Type: GrantFiled: January 8, 2007Date of Patent: April 1, 2014Assignees: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P., Northern Telecom LimitedInventors: Julia Skladman, Robert J. Thornberry, Jr., Bruce A. Chatterley, Alexander Siu-Kay Ng, Bruce L. Peterson

Publication number: 20070112910Abstract: A messaging system for notifying subscribers of incoming e-mail messages that includes an e-mail system communicating with a notification system is disclosed. The e-mail system includes a user interface that permits subscribers to populate filter lists with e-mail message attributes, such as sender e-mail addresses. The filter list is provided to the notification system, which selectively notifies subscribers of incoming e-mail messages based on the contents of their respective filter lists. The notification system can alert subscribers to incoming e-mail messages by pager, facsimile, voice mail, synthetic speech via cellular or conventional telephones, or the like.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 9, 2007Publication date: May 17, 2007Inventors: Julia Skladman, Robert Thornberry

Publication number: 20070036315Abstract: A system and method for creating and implementing telecommunications services are disclosed. The system comprises a service development platform that includes a communications module, and application server, and at least one auxiliary module. The communications module enables data to be transmitted to and from the development platform to facilitate the implementation of telecommunications services. The application server can store a telecommunications service creation tool that can be used by an individual to generate code needed to implement the telecommunications service or that can automatically generate code needed to implement the telecommunications service. The application server can also store the code needed to implement the telecommunications service and can transmit data to and receive data from the communications module as necessary for implementing the telecommunications service.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 12, 2006Publication date: February 15, 2007Inventors: Walter Malinowski, Kimberly Price, Andrew Schmidt, Julia Skladman, Barry Sullivan, Curt Witte

Patent number: 7123906Abstract: An integrated telephony service can provide users with a single phone number and a single handset for use as a cordless device at a stationary location and for use as a mobile device. Incoming calls can be routed to the handset at the stationary location over a landline network. If unanswered at the stationary location, the calls can be routed to the handset via a service delivery point of presence over a wireless network. For outgoing calls from the handset, a switch within the handset can select cordless device operation when the handset is within range of a landline base station unit connected to the landline network and the handset can function as a cordless device in cooperation with the landline base station. If the handset is not within range of the landline base station, the switch can select mobile device operation and the call can be placed over the wireless network with the handset functioning as a mobile device.Type: GrantFiled: October 17, 2003Date of Patent: October 17, 2006Assignee: Verizon Communications Inc.Inventors: James A. Otterbeck, Julia Skladman, Chad J. McCauley, Michael Bendoff
