A real-time communications system that is capable of convening an on-line meeting or teleconference involving text, audio, video, and/or data between multiple users of mobile and non-mobile devices. A mobile telephone is operative to receive an invitation to join an on-line meeting with at least one user of another mobile or non-mobile device. If the mobile telephone network can provide an indication of whether the mobile telephone is powered-on and within the coverage area of the mobile telephone network, a real-time messaging server employs this information to determine the on-line presence of the mobile telephone user before transmitting the meeting invitation. Otherwise, the real-time messaging server assumes that the mobile telephone user is present and on-line. The mobile telephone user may indicate his or her desire to join the on-line meeting by transmitting an SMS message to the real-time messaging server in response to the meeting invitation, after which the real-time messaging system may convene the on-line meeting between the multiple users.

A rules-based real-time messaging system for groups of users, in which an availability status may be maintained in association with each user. Clients are communicably coupled to a real-time messaging server, which maintains indications of the online/offline presence status of each user, as well as other user attributes. Rules and a rules engine are maintained in the real-time messaging server for controlling the delivery of messages to users, and for controlling how the availability of users is provided to other users. Based on the specific rules stored on the real-time messaging server, the rules engine determines the state of various relevant conditions, such as the availability status of users of the system, and also detects the occurrence of various real-time events, such as a user logging-on to or logging-off from the system, in order to control the delivery of various types of messages and/or performance of resulting actions.

A real-time communications system for initiating a real-time communications session involving a plurality of users that brings together the most appropriate individuals to participate in an on-line meeting or teleconference. A user who is a prospective participant in an on-line meeting or teleconference clicks on a hyperlink contained in a document to access a query form. Next, the user enters personal identifying information on the query form. Information relating to that user can also be included in parameters associated with the hyperlink. Next, the user clicks on a button associated with the query form to pass the personal identifying information to a real-time messaging server, which generates a request for an on-line meeting or teleconference, and provides the meeting request to one or more other specified users. Because the meeting request includes some or all of the information entered on the query form and included in the hyperlink parameters, the specified users can decide whether or not to join an on-line meeting or teleconference with the prospective participant based at least in part on the information provided.

Error bursts are detected and corrected in a communication system using shortened cyclic codes, such as shortened Fire codes. Data is loaded into a first error syndrome register and a second error syndrome register. The data in the registers may be evaluated to determine if the data bits contain a correctable error. Shortened zero bits are shifted into the second error syndrome register. A number of zero bits are shifted into the first error syndrome register to trap an error burst pattern in the data. A determination is made as to the number of zero bits shifted into the second error syndrome register to trap the location of the error burst in the data. Using the number of zero bits shifted into the second error syndrome register and the error burst pattern, the error in the data is located and corrected.

A “code optimizer” provides various techniques for optimizing arbitrary XOR-based codes for encoding and/or decoding of data. Further, the optimization techniques enabled by the code optimizer do not depend on any underlining code structure. Therefore, the optimization techniques provided by the code optimizer are applicable to arbitrary codes with arbitrary redundancy. As such, the optimized XOR-based codes generated by the code optimizer are more flexible than specially designed codes, and allow for any desired level of fault tolerance. Typical uses of XOR-based codes include, for example, encoding and/or decoding data using redundant data packets for data transmission real-time communications systems, encoding and/or decoding operations for storage systems such as RAID arrays, etc.

A method and system for automatically routing a call to an identity of multiple identities based on an active presence profile. A subscription message is sent to a user's contact addresses. The contact addresses include identities of the user and indicators of remote servers that manage real time communication systems. A presence document that includes a presence status of a first identity of the user is received. The presence status indicates that the first identity is offline. A registration message is issued to a remote server, resulting in a call redirection from the first identity to a second identity. The second identity is included in an active presence profile and is associated with a computing system that receives the redirected call. If multiple presence profiles of the user are active, a matching algorithm selects a contact address of one of the active presence profiles to determine the call redirection.
