A method for providing, to a first application executed by a first operating system, an interface for communicating with at least one application executed by a second operating system includes providing, by a first interface object executed by the first operating system, a mechanism for external communication with a first application executed by the first operating system. A second interface object executed by the second operating system provides a mechanism for external communication with a window handler executed by the second operating system. The first interface object receives an identification of a window displayed by the first operating system and generated by a second application executed by the second operating system and requests, from the second interface object, analysis of the identified window. The first interface object receives, from the second interface object, an identification of contact information displayed by the window resulting from the analysis by the window handler.

Methods and systems for providing, to a first application executed by a first operating system, an interface for communicating with at least one application executed by a second operating system

Systems and methods for establishing a communications session among end-points are shown and described. The method can include receiving, from a client computing device at a gateway computing device, a request to establish a communication session with an end-point, the client computing device executing a program that locates address information for the end-point within application output displayed at the client computing device and forwarding at least a portion of the received request to a private branch exchange in communication the gateway computing device, the at least a portion of the received request including the address information of the end-point and address information associated with an end-user of the client computing device.
