Connections between a Java 2 enterprise edition (J2EE) application server and a common object request broker architecture (CORBA) enterprise information system are managed. A resource adapter is integrated with the application server. The resource adapter includes an encapsulated CORBA interface to the enterprise information system. Additionally, a persistent CORBA connection is established between the application server and the enterprise information system.

A method for updating communications service parameters includes receiving, at a platform configured for speech recognition functionality and corresponding to a communications address associated with verbally updating communications service parameters, a voice instruction from a requester to update a communications service parameter. The voice instruction is translated into digital command data and the digital command data and the update to the communications service parameter are stored in a database. A change in a communications service corresponding to the update to the communications service parameter is implemented in near real-time.

Voice enhancing for advance intelligent network services

An method and apparatus for efficiently querying a service manager are provided. The method includes running a thread that includes a common object request broker architecture (CORBA) request. The request includes a structured query language string. The request, including the structured query language string, is forwarded to the service manager.

An advanced intelligent network (AIN) based system and method that allows a subscriber connected to the Internet to receive customized call alerts and caller identification information concerning an incoming telephone call. Using client software, the subscriber associates telephone numbers to sound files. Then, when an incoming call with caller identification information is received, the client software determines whether the incoming telephone number points to a sound file. If so, the client software directs the sound file to play.

Method and system for presenting customized call alerts in a service for internet caller identification

A service includes verbally editing at least one parameter of a subscriber's advanced intelligent network (AIN) service using speech recognition functionality of an intelligent peripheral. A call is received from the subscriber at a switch, including a dialed number for editing the AIN service. A connection is established with the intelligent peripheral in response to the dialed number. Call service data, including the parameter, is retrieved from a database. The intelligent peripheral plays a voice announcement identifying the parameter to the subscriber, receives a voice instruction from the subscriber in response to the voice announcement and translates the voice instruction into digital command data relating to a change to the parameter. The digital command data and the change to the parameter are stored in the database for near real-time implementation. The intelligent peripheral and the database are likewise accessible by the subscriber through a packet switched data network.
