Patent number: 10447851Abstract: Techniques described herein may be used to enable a user to obtain services from multiple organizations in a seamless, automated, and efficient manner. A network device may cause a user device to automatically access a web service by, for example, downloading a mobile application or accessing a web page designed to provide the web service. The network device may automatically identify a second web service that is logically related to the first web service and offer the second web service to the user. If the user accepts the second web service, the network device may cause the user device to automatically access the second web service via a mobile application, a webpage, etc. Identification and authentication issues for accessing the first or second web services may be automatically resolved by network device based on the mobile device number (MDN) of the user device and/or other profile information.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2015Date of Patent: October 15, 2019Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Kiran Naiga, Gilda Majidi, Momin Mirza, Gaurav Gupta, Avinash S.

Patent number: 10083449Abstract: A network device sends, to a customer device, real-time customer data for a service campaign running on a service provider network. The network device receives a customer authorization to share the customer data with an agent of the service provider network. The customer authorization includes session context information related to the presentation of the customer data. The network device determines if there are predictive options for the customer data. When there are no predictive options for the real-time customer data, the network device sends, to the customer device, a first feed of the real-time customer data and sends, to the agent device, the session context information and a second feed of the real-time customer data. The session context information enables the agent device to build an instance of the customer data that is similar to a presentation on the customer device, without sharing the customer screen view.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2015Date of Patent: September 25, 2018Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Momin Mirza, Gilda Majidi

Patent number: 9763029Abstract: A mobile device executes an application installed on the mobile device to detect transmissions of broadcasted advertising packet data units (PDUs) via a short range wireless protocol. The mobile device receives a first broadcasted advertising PDU via the short range wireless protocol from a first Internet of Things (IoT) device, and the application determines a first geo-location associated with the first IoT device and generates a first timestamp based on receipt of the first broadcasted advertising PDU. The application at the mobile device forwards, via a wireless protocol that is different than the short range wireless protocol, the first broadcasted advertising PDU, the first geo-location, and the first timestamp to a remote data server.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2015Date of Patent: September 12, 2017Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventors: Momin Mirza, Sai Sarath Chandra Yagnyamurthy, David J.

Patent number: 9720856Abstract: A content sharing device may receive, from a content providing device, information that identifies content to be shared with a dongle device via a content sharing service. The content sharing device may receive, from the content providing device, information that identifies a contact with which the content is to be shared. The content sharing device may determine, based on the information that identifies the contact, a dongle device identifier. The dongle device identifier may include a network address associated with the dongle device. The content sharing device may provide, to the dongle device and based on determining the dongle device identifier, information that identifies the content. The information that identifies the content may cause the content to be accessible by a content receiving device connected to the dongle device.Type: GrantFiled: January 7, 2016Date of Patent: August 1, 2017Assignee: VERIZON PATENT AND LICENSING INC.Inventors: Nisheeth Gupta, Momin Mirza, Farooq Muzaffar, Neenu Sohi Kainth, Brian H.
