Abstract: In some embodiments, a method stores a set of tags from a taxonomy for a break in main content. A portion of the main content within a time period threshold of the break is analyzed to determine the set of tags. An indication of the break that is going to be experienced during playback of main content is received. A client device is playing back the main content. Responsive to the indication, the set of tags for the break is retrieved. The method provides information for the set of tags to a supplemental content system to facilitate selection of an instance of supplemental content based on the set of tags. The method provides information for the instance of supplemental content to the client device to insert the instance of supplemental content in the break during the playback of the main content.

Abstract: In some embodiments, a method determines a prediction network that is trained to map a contextual taxonomy to a standard taxonomy. An indication of a break that is going to be experienced during playback of an instance of main content is received. A client device is playing back the instance of main content. The method determines a set of contextual tags based on content associated with the break in the instance of main content. The prediction network maps the set of contextual tags to a set of standard tags from the standard taxonomy. The method determines an instance of supplemental content based on the set of standard tags. The information to insert the instance of supplemental content in the break during a playback of the instance of main content is provided to the client device.

Abstract: An apparatus for using multiple call controllers of voice-band calls is provided. The apparatus includes a first protocol endpoint, a second protocol endpoint, and a protocol adapter. The first protocol endpoint is configured to receive at least one first external message from a first call controller and to map the first external message to at least one corresponding first internal call control message. The second protocol endpoint is configured to receive at least one second external message from an integrated access device and to map the at least one second external message to at least one corresponding second internal call control message. The protocol adapter is configured to receive the first and the second internal messages and to route the first and the second internal messages to the appropriate one of the first and second endpoints.
