Abstract
A method and system for supporting a real-time communication on an integrated packet-based network involve accumulating information about the communication, referred to as signature data, while the communication is being setup and/or is in progress and storing the signature data in a database that is openly accessible to any applications that are connected to the network. Once signature data regarding an active real-time communication is accumulated, portions of the signature data may be utilized to further process the active real-time communication. Providing an openly accessible communication profile that is accumulated while the communication is in progress allows applications to provide a higher level of service by tailoring actions to the profile of the specific communication.
