A system for and method for providing graphical contents during a communication session is presented. The system and method include receiving, via an input/output module, one or more call invite request messages to establish a communication session in a communication network, processing, via a processing module, the one or more call invite request messages to identify a graphical content account associated with one or more users of the communication session, and transmitting, via a presentation module, one or more graphical contents from the graphical content account associated with at least one of the one or more users before an establishment of the communication session.

System for and method of providing graphical contents during a communication session

A system and method in accordance with exemplary embodiments may include receiving, from a user system, one or more protocol analysis request messages via a network, transmitting, to one or more multipurpose interface devices, one or more control signals based on the one or more protocol analysis request messages, receiving, from the one or more multipurpose interface devices, protocol analysis data associated with data traffic transmitted on one or more test networks in response to the transmitted control signals, and outputting, to the user system, the protocol analysis data via the network.

Method and system for simplifying protocol analysis

An approach is provided for voice, video and data services using an integrated set-top box. A packetized voice call is received (or placed) using a set-top box, wherein the set-top is configured to present video content on a display for viewing by a user. The set-top box includes a speakerphone for the user to participate in the voice call.

Method and system of providing an integrated set-top box

A system and method in accordance with exemplary embodiments may include detecting a fault associated with a network element that is communicatively coupled to a network. After detecting the fault, the network element may receive a reset signal in response to the fault detection. After receiving the reset signal, the network element may store a new image of an operating system of the network element into memory associated with the network element. After storing the new image, the network element may reboot. During reboot, the method may load the stored new image of the operating system from memory associated with the network element.

Method, system, and device for resetting network elements

A system and method for ensuring that a large number of connectors, such as fiber-optic cable-connectors, which are plugged-into connector-receptacles arrayed across a connector-panel, are not intentionally disconnected by an un-authorized user with malicious intent, or accidentally unplugged by an authorized technician who may be trying to manually pull-out a specific connector for testing or other purposes but, inadvertently, could otherwise unplug a neighboring connector because of not being able to clearly see which plug is actually being removed due to the large number of cables that are connected to the panel. The connectors are locked in place by restraining arms which are controlled by solenoids or motors. Each restraining arm can be commanded to release its respective connector, but only when the correct command from a computer is received. The same system and method can be applied to connector-receptacles arrayed on one or both sides of the panel. The same system and method can be applied to other cables, such as coax cables or Cat 5 cables.

Computer-controlled connector-panel system

A system, method, and device for producing, transmitting and displaying images in holographic form of up to three dimensions. Information representative of a three dimensional image can be converted into three-dimensional positional data. The three-dimensional position data can be converted into an electromagnetic field which can be received by nanomachines configured to adjust position in accordance with the electromagnetic field and including mirrored endpoints for reflecting light. The nanomachines can adjust position in three dimensions so that the mirrored endpoints reflect light in a manner that reproduces the three dimensional image in holographic form.

System, method, and device for producing, transmitting and displaying images in holographic form of up to three dimensions

A system for and method of receiving internet radio broadcast via satellite radio is presented. The system and method allow internet radio to be delivered to consumers on a mobile electronic device. Internet radio can be individually customized to deliver certain types of content and can also deliver on-demand content. The system and method therefore provides for the delivery of customizable on-demand content to a consumer's mobile device with the stable and wide-ranging connectivity of satellite radio.

System for and method of receiving internet radio broadcast via satellite radio

A streaming video system may include a video capture terminal configured to communicate with a first communications network and a video receiving terminal configured to communicate with a second network operatively connected to the first network. The video capture terminal may be configured to capture video data and stream the video data to the receiving terminal via the first network and the second network in substantially real-time.
