IPC Code(s): H04L12/18, G06F40/58
CPC Code(s): H04L12/1831
Abstract: a conference participant is alerted as to an event during a conference responsive to a determination that a focus of the conference participant is other than on the conference. during the conference, an event associated with the conference participant is detected based on a real-time transcription of the conference. for example, the event may relate to a topic relevant to the conference participant or a request associated with a name of the conference participant. a determination is made that a focus of the conference participant is other than on the conference based on information associated with a device of the conference participant, such as input received from a camera associated with the device or a setting of an audio output device associated with the device. based on that determination and the detected event, output is presented to alert the conference participant as to the event.

CPC Code(s): H04L65/4015
Abstract: temporary access to a digital whiteboard is enabled for conference participants during a conference (e.g., a video conference). based on a request to share a digital whiteboard with conference participants during a conference, ones of the conference participants to which to grant temporary access permissions for the digital whiteboard are determined. the temporary access permissions are granted to enable the ones of the conference participants to access the digital whiteboard during the conference. based on an event occurrence, which may, for example, correspond to a termination of the conference or a disconnection of an owner of the digital whiteboard from the conference, the temporary access permissions are revoked to restrict further access to the digital whiteboard by the ones of the conference participants.

CPC Code(s): H04M3/5183
Abstract: a server receives a query for connecting a user device to an agent device at a contact center server. the server determines, based on the query, a set of features of an agent associated with the agent device. the server determines that the agent having the set of features is available. the server calculates a priority score for the user device based on an elapsed time since the user device initiated a contact center engagement and additional stored data associated with the user device. the server connects the user device to the agent device based on the agent being available and based on the priority score for the user device exceeding a priority score for at least one other user device.

CPC Code(s): H04M3/5233
Abstract: a contact center server receives indicia of user devices accessing the server. the contact center server determines that a contact center agent device is available for communicating with a user device of the user devices. the contact center server calculates, for at least a subset of the user devices, a priority score based on an elapsed time since the user device initiated a contact center engagement and a priority level of an account associated with the user device. the contact center server selects, based on the calculated priority scores, a first user device for communicating with the available agent device. the contact center server connects the first user device to the available agent device via the contact center server.
