SYSTEM, APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING EVENT INFORMATION FROM A REMOTE TERMINAL TO SUBSCRIBERS OVER A NETWORK

摘要

A system, apparatus and method for transmitting event information from a remote terminal to subscribers over a network. Remote terminal events, such as a missed call or and SMS messages etc. are routed to a secondary terminal when the subscriber is logged into his or her remote terminal account via a secondary terminal. A subscriber can configure the mobile events for which he or she wants to be notified on a remote terminal. When such an event occurs, and if the subscriber is logged on to his or her remote terminal account, a notifying message is transmitted with some details of the event. The notifying message could be in any one of various unobtrusive forms which minimizes any distraction caused by the message. A subscriber does not have to be in physical possession of his or her remote terminal to be notified of mobile events. Rather, one advantage of the invention is to allow a user to be notified of pre- configured mobile events in situations where the user has forgotten the remote terminal or spends most of his or her time in front of a computer terminal in a location remote form the remote terminal.
