<p>The sender of a telephone call or an e-mail message is represented by an incoming contact identifier, such as the originating phone number or e-mail address, respectively. The recipient of the telephone call or e-mail message can identify the contact corresponding to the incoming identifier by matching the identifier with an entry in a data store. The data store comprises of an alphabetized index of contact/translated contact identifier pairs for efficient lookup. The incoming identifier is translated in order to match an entry in the index. The position in the index of the translated identifier is determined and if a sufficient match is found, the corresponding contact is indicated. Otherwise, the closest matches are noted or a message indicating that no conclusive match was found is communicated.</p> |
