Filed:

Oct 30, 2002

Appl. No.:

10/286258

Inventors:

Tammy S. Brown - Littleton CO, US

Assignee:

Qwest Communications International Inc. - Denver CO

International Classification:

G06F 15/173

US Classification:

709226, 709223

Abstract:

A method of creating a network architecture planning tool includes receiving at a host computer system a request from a user computer to display a first object template, transmitting an electronic file comprising the object template to a user computer, receiving at the host computer system information defining a first object comprising at least a function defining a next object, receiving at the host computer system a request from a user computer to display at least a second object template, transmitting an electronic file comprising the at least a second object template to the user computer, receiving at the host computer system information defining at least a second object relating to a network, and storing the information defining the first object and the information defining at least the second object.

US Classification:

709220, 709219, 709221, 709223, 709224

Abstract:

A method of documenting a network architecture planning process includes receiving at a host computer system a request from a user computer to initiate a network architecture planning process, transmitting an electronic file comprising a question relating to a parameter of the network architecture to the user computer, receiving a first response to the question, storing the first response, transmitting an electronic file comprising at least a second question to the user computer, wherein the second question comprises context-sensitive content based on the first response, receiving at the host computer system at least a second response to the at least a second question, storing the at least a second response, determining at least a first action based on the first response and the at least a second response, and transmitting the at least a first action for display at the user computer.

International Classification:

G06F 15/177

US Classification:

709220, 709217, 709223

Abstract:

A method of planning a network architecture includes receiving at a host computer system a request from a user computer to initiate a network architecture planning process, in response to the request, transmitting an electronic file comprising a first display screen to the user computer, wherein the first display screen comprises a question relating to a parameter of the network architecture, receiving at the host computer system a first response to the question, transmitting at least a second electronic file comprising a second display screen to the user computer, wherein the second display screen comprises context-sensitive content based on at least one previous response, receiving at the host computer system at least a second response to the at least a second display screen, determining at least a first action based on the first response and the at least a second response, and transmitting information relating to the at least a first action for display at the user computer.

Assignee:

QWEST COMMUNICATIONS INTERNATIONAL INC. - Denver CO

International Classification:

H04L 12/66

US Classification:

370352

Abstract:

Novel tools and techniques for providing a subscriber with converged voice services, in which calls to one of the subscriber's telephone numbers is routed to some or all of the subscriber's telephone numbers (e.g., sequentially or simultaneously, depending on system configuration and/or subscriber preference). Some implementations employ a VoIP switch to handle call distribution among the subscriber's various phone lines, even if some (or all) of the subscribers telephone lines are not VoIP lines. In such implementations, upon receiving an incoming call directed to one of the subscriber's lines, a service switching point will route the call to a VoIP switch. Instructed by an application server, the VoIP switch will set up call legs (e.g., via the PSTN) to one or more of the subscribers' telephone numbers. Optionally, when one of the call legs is answered, the application server will instruct the VoIP switch to disconnect the other call legs.
