SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ACTIVE MOBILE COLLABORATION

摘要

A communication system is provided that uses loosely-coupled client-server achitecture to improved the efficiency of communications. The communication system includes client and facilitator applications. The client application is a component of processor-based mobile communication devices. The facilitator application is hosted on one or more servers or other processor-based device s, and communicates with the client application via one or more couplings. The facilitator can also be distributed among one or more portable processor-bas ed devices including the communication device hosting the client application. T he communication system improves efficiency of voice communications by allowing communication device users to dynamically manage how and when mobile calls take place, intelligently screen calls based oncaller identity, urgency, and subject matter, determine which contacts in a directory are available to tal k and which ones choose not to be disturbed, and increase accessibility of interprise and personal contact information from mobile phones.
