The information processing apparatus acquires participant information related to a particular participant of a plurality of participants in communication, acquired from the particular participant of the plurality of participants participating, acquires attention amount information related to an attention amount of the particular participant of the plurality of participants with respect to information used in the communication, determines presentation information to be presented to the plurality of participants based on the attention amount information of the particular participant adjusts timing for transmitting the presentation information to one or more other participants of the plurality of participants, and transmits the presentation information to an output device provided for each of the plurality of participants.

A method includes: in response to identifying a primary user and corresponding Primary AI Assistant for a meeting, receiving by the Primary AI Assistant a confirmation to enroll at least one user personal digital assistant (PDA) of a respective one of at least one user; prompting the at least one user to provide descriptive information associated with the respective user PDA; connecting the at least one user PDA to the Primary AI Assistant internally by the Primary AI Assistant using the descriptive information for submitting requests; identifying by the Primary AI Assistant keywords and phrases received from the at least one user or primary user in the meeting; determining by the Primary AI Assistant a scheduling item based on the identified keywords and phrases; and automatically providing by the Primary AI Assistant the scheduling item to at least one user PDA corresponding to the scheduling item using the descriptive information.

Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for scheduling a call to be automatically initiated between users. The program and method provide for receiving, from a first device associated with a first user, a request for a call to be automatically initiated, at a scheduled time, between the first device and a second device corresponding to a second user; providing, to the second device and in response to the receiving, an invitation to participate in the call; receiving, from the second device and in response to the providing, an acceptance of the invitation; and providing for automatically initiating the call between the first device and the second device at the scheduled time.

A network call method, a server, a call terminal, a network call system, and a storage medium are provided. The network call method includes: receiving a reservation request transmitted by a call reservation terminal, the reservation request including a first communication identifier of a first call terminal; generating a chat room identifier of a chat room in a social network application; generating a call reservation notification, the call reservation notification including an access link generated according to the chat room identifier; and transmitting the call reservation notification to a communication client of the first call terminal according to the first communication identifier of the first call terminal.

In one aspect, a device may include at least one processor and storage accessible to the at least one processor. The storage may include instructions executable by the at least one processor to facilitate a video conference and to determine different volume levels at which audio for different conference participants should be set. Each different volume level may be greater than zero. The instructions may also be executable to, based on the determination, control audio for the video conference according to the different volume levels. The determination may be based on something other than one of the conference participants specifying one or more of the different volume levels.

A system and method for creating and posting voice messages via a social networking service. A social networking service includes a website for receiving a voice message, post the voice message to the social networking service by storing the voice message as an audio file to a server, and transmit the post to a mobile device each associated with a follower of the social networking service. A client application running on each mobile device receives a notification of the post from the social networking service, and includes a control interface to enable an associated follower to access the voice message.

Methods and systems are provided for automatically joining a user in a conference meeting via alternative communication devices when the user is detected to be unavailable at a particular client communication device. The client communication device of the user determines that the presence of the user is set to away, indicating that the user is unavailable at the client communication device. When the client communication device determines that a conference meeting including the user as an active participant is about to begin, the client communication device determines an alternative number, and different communication device, at which to reach the user. Using the alternative number, the client communication device calls the user at the different communication device and, when answered, automatically joins the user into the conference meeting through a communication channel provided by the client communication device.

A system and method for managing a conference doorplate and a conference doorplate (12) are provided. The system includes a server (11) and a conference doorplate (12), the conference doorplate including a display screen, wherein the server (11) is configured to regularly acquire conference reservation information of a target conference room; generate to-be-displayed information based on the conference reservation information; send the to-be-displayed information; and send a task update instruction of the target conference room after receiving the task update instruction, wherein the task update instruction is configured to update the to-be-displayed information; the conference doorplate (12) is configured to receive the to-be-displayed information and display the to-be-displayed information through the screen, and the conference doorplate (12) is further configured to receive the task update instruction and update the to-be-displayed information based on the task update instruction.

Methods, systems, and apparatus for an in-vehicle infotainment platform for a vehicle. The in-vehicle infotainment platform includes a memory and an electronic control unit. The memory is configured to store meeting information including video conferencing information or audio conferencing information. The electronic control unit is coupled to the memory. The electronic control unit is configured to automatically connect to a video conference using the video conferencing information or automatically connect to an audio conference using the audio conferencing information.
