Abstract
Mid-call features are implemented during a call placed over a communications network. The mid-call features are implemented through a set of call feature modules, each of which having been categorized in accordance with a feature implementation architecture. An exemplary method for routing requests within a feature server computer to set up a feature implementation includes receiving, at a per-incoming call feature module of a feature server computer, an initial incoming call request, routing the initial incoming call request from the per-incoming call feature module to a multi-call feature module of the feature server computer, routing the initial incoming call request from the multi-call feature module to an omniscient call feature module, routing the initial incoming call request from the omniscient call feature module to a multi-device call feature module, and routing the initial incoming call request from the multi-device call feature module to a per-outgoing device feature module.
