A management layer for electronic or virtual meeting tools is configured to automatically manage a virtual meeting environment established between computing devices using time based controls, data collection, and feedback mechanisms.

A method performed by a network node, for handling an outgoing media call of a user associated with multiple User Equipment, UEs, in a communications network is provided. The network node receives (402) a request for the outgoing media call to be set up from a first UE out of the multiple UEs. The request is obtained as a voice instruction 5 from the user via a Digital Assistant, DA, device. The voice instruction comprises a personalized name associated with the first UE. The network node further identifies (403) among the multiple UEs, the first UE and its associated IP Multimedia Subsystem, IMS, identifier based on the personalized name received in the voice instruction. The network node further sends (404), to an IMS node, the identified IMS identifier of the first UE and a 10 request to whether or not the first UE is registered in the IMS node and supports media When the first UE is registered in the IMS node and supports the media of the outgoing media call, the network node initiates (405) the outgoing media call from the first UE. When the first UE is not registered in the IMS node and/or does not support the media of the outgoing media call, the network node decides (406) how to 15 proceed with the outgoing media call.

Provided is a method performed by a terminal of performing communication, the method including generating a private call setup request message including a call identifier information element (IE), a caller IE, a callee IE, and a call type IE set to an emergency private call, based on receiving a user indication to upgrade a call to emergency call, wherein the terminal is in an in-progress private call state; setting a proximity-based services (ProSe) per-packet priority corresponding to the emergency private call; transmitting, to another terminal, the private call setup request message; starting a timer relating to private call request retransmission based on the emergency call setup request message; and entering an in-progress emergency private call state from the in-progress private call state.

An online collaborative session application executing on a processing device tracks a state of an application shared by the processing device over an online collaborative session. The online collaborative session application receives data indicative of an annotation made to an instance of the application as part of the online collaborative session. A first location of the annotation relative to the instance of the application is determined from the data indicative of the annotation and the state of the application. Based on the tracking, a change to the state of the application is determined. A second location of the annotation is determined based on the change of the state of the application.

Two or more computing devices involved in a software based conference are determined. Each computing device of the two or more computing devices has an associated user. An input from a computing device of the two or more computing devices is received. A user action for a user associated with a computing device of the two or more computing devices from the input is determined. Whether the user completed the user action within a threshold is determined. The user is alerted of the user action.

Methods, systems, and computer-readable storage media for determining a sub-set of services, each service in the sub-set of services being in an overload status and having a SSF associated therewith, providing statistics associated with each service in the sub-set of services and relating service call statistics to each API group of a set of API groups, determining a set of sessions based on the service call statistics, each session in the set of sessions associated with at least one service in the sub-set of services having a service call statistic that exceeds a threshold service call statistic, defining an execution group and a waiting group, determining that a session is in the waiting group, and in response, blocking a request of the session from being processed by a service in the sub-set of services, and providing a wait indication to a user associated with the session.

A management layer for electronic or virtual meeting tools is configured to automatically manage a virtual meeting environment established between computing devices using time based controls, data collection, and feedback mechanisms.

Methods and systems to identify options of secondary client devices for a device handover of game play include establishing a session of game play of a game for a primary client device by executing the game on a server for streaming video frames to the primary client device. A request is received to generate a profile of one or more secondary client devices that are identified to be local to the primary client device. The profile is configured to identify device attributes for the secondary client devices. A handover option is provided to the primary client device during game play, identifying one or more of the secondary client devices, based on the profile. A selection of a secondary client device identified by the handover option received from the primary client device causes pausing of the streaming of video frames to the primary client device, saving a game state for the game and providing an option to resume play of the game on the secondary client device. A resume request received from the secondary client device causes the game state for the game to be accessed and game play resumed so as to continue streaming video frames to the secondary client device.

An earphone-switching method in a mobile terminal are disclosed. The mobile terminal is currently connected with a first earphone, and the method includes performing an earphone-switching operation in response to the mobile terminal being in a call state and an earphone-switching condition being met, the earphone-switching operation being configured for switching the first earphone to a second earphone; detecting whether at least one of a first voice data and a second voice data is obtained during the earphone-switching operation; and sending the at least one of the first voice data and the second voice data, in response to the at least one of the first voice data and the second voice data being obtained, wherein the first voice data is sent to the second earphone, and the second voice data is sent to the peer terminal.

Embodiments of the present disclosure sets forth a computer-implemented method comprising obtaining sensor data associated with a driver of a vehicle, determining a state associated with the driver based on the sensor data, and transmitting the state associated with the driver to a teleconference session, wherein the driver is at least one of a participant or an invitee to the teleconference session.
