A system for interactive voice response system crawling, comprising an IVR crawler that may be VXML, design specification, DTMF or ASR/NLSR speech-based in nature and traverses an IVR menu to discover possible interaction paths and produces test cases based on those paths, and a database that stores test cases produced by the IVR crawler during operation, and a method for using an IVR crawler to perform a system migration.

Methods and systems are disclosed for enabling the generation of a token corresponding to a tone generated by a telephony system, comprising receiving one or more dual tone multi-frequency (DTMF) tones generated by a telephony system, generating a token based on the one or more DTMF tones; and transmitting the generated token to a merchant system.

One embodiment of the present invention provides a collect call method and system thereof, more particularly, in order to charge the called party with a uniform toll for collect call, which is determined by only the type and location of called party terminal. In one embodiment, the collect call method, system and a counsel service providing method use a free VoIP network for part of the voice call link and a charge PSTN network for the rest of the voice call link. In one embodiment, if the first link corresponding to the collect call request is established, the collect call switch calls the called party terminal to establish the second link, and billing on the second link is initiated.

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for call classification and for training a model for call classification, an example method comprising: receiving DTMF information from a plurality of calls; determining, for each of the calls, a feature vector including statistics based on DTMF information such as DTMF residual signal comprising channel noise and additive noise; training a model for classification; comparing a new call feature vector to the model; predicting a device type and geographic location based on the comparison of the new call feature vector to the model; classifying the call as spoofed or genuine; and authenticating a call or altering an IVR call flow.

A service session is facilitated via a packet switched network; in the service session, user equipment participates in an interactive communication exchange with an agent via a first interaction mode, and the interactive communication exchange is based on a user inquiry. The interactive communication exchange is monitored and a determination is made that a consultation service would facilitate resolution of the user inquiry. A service resource is associated with the service session responsive to determining that the consultation service would facilitate the resolution; the service resource provides consultation to the agent via a second interaction mode without exposing the consultation to the user equipment. The consultation elevates an experience level employed in the first service session towards resolution of the user inquiry.

Described herein are systems and methods for determining and managing the location of a calling device during an emergency call. A computing device at a data store establishes a connection with a computing device at a public safety access point (PSAP). The connection is established upon receipt of an emergency call at the computing device at the PSAP from a calling device via a first communications channel. The calling device is associated with a unique identifier. The computing device at the data store receives location data for the calling device, where the calling device streams the location data to the data store via a second communications channel upon initiation of the emergency call. The computing device at the data store makes the location data for the calling device available to the computing device at the PSAP using the unique identifier.

A system comprising a call center, contact system test engine, plurality of networks, at least one remote server, at least one remote database, which allows users to automate call center testing and combine synchronized results for agent-customer calls (AX-CX test synchronization). The system is further accomplished with methods, using different techniques for synchronizing the testing for both customer and agent results, and producing these test results in a mobile dashboard and web-accessible dashboard.

Methods and apparatus implementing a telephony terminal for connecting a telephone to a data network. In one implementation, a telephony system includes: a phone connection for connecting to a telephone; a network connection for connecting to a network; and a controller connected to said phone connection and to said network connection; wherein said controller provides a phone service for processing information for said phone connection, said controller provides a network service for processing information for said network connection, and said controller provides a network voice service for converting information to and from a network voice format.

Input/output (I/O) operation requests from pageable storage mode guests are interpreted without host intervention. In a pageable mode virtual environment, requests issued by pageable storage mode guests are processed by one or more processors of the environment absent intervention from one or more hosts of the environment. Processing of the requests includes manipulating, by at least one processor on behalf of the guests, buffer state information stored in host storage. The manipulating is performed via instructions initiated by the guests and processed by one or more of the processors.

A computing device of a communication network may generate a first connection context that can manage a first voice connection between a first device and a second device. A signal may be received over the first connection context indicative of a request by the first device. In response, the computing device may connect the first device to a second connection context that can manage a second voice connection between the first device and an automated service such as a communication bot. The first device can transmit natural language requests to the automated service. The automated service facilitates execution of the natural language requests by the computing device.
