Telephonic Session Server Reservation Automation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) technologies lack a flexible mechanism for initiating telephonic sessions, particularly for group conference calls, requiring users to manually manage session details and memorize schedules, which hampers user experience and convenience.
Innovation Solution
A method and device for initiating telephonic sessions using a server that receives and processes reservation requests, forwards invitations, and automatically establishes online conference calls based on predetermined conditions, allowing users to customize session times and content, and enabling seamless multi-party sessions without manual labor.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If manual session initiation is used, then users have control over session details, but user experience deteriorates due to the need to laboriously memorize session schedules and manually manage session details
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary actions by automatically initiating telephonic sessions based on pre-configured reservation information stored on the server. The server stores session details including participant identifiers, scheduled times, and other parameters in advance, eliminating the need for users to manually remember or manage session details when the session time arrives.
2Extent of automation
If automatic session initiation is implemented, then user experience improves through automation, but device complexity increases due to server-side reservation management requirements
Solution Approach 1:
The server acts as an intermediary between users and the session initiation process. It stores reservation information including participant identifiers and session parameters, then automatically initiates sessions based on stored conditions without requiring complex client-side logic. This mediates the complexity by centralizing the automation logic on the server while keeping client devices simple.
3Adaptability or versatility
If reservation information is stored on the server, then session extensibility improves for multi-party sessions, but information storage requirements increase
Solution Approach 1:
The reservation information stored on the server is designed to be universal and extensible, supporting not only one-on-one sessions but also multi-party conference calls. The stored data structure includes identifiers and parameters that can accommodate any number of participants, allowing the same reservation system to handle various session types without requiring separate storage mechanisms for different session configurations.

AI summary
Disclosed is an automatic telephonic session initiation method performed at a telephone session server including: receiving a telephonic session reservation request from a telephonic session client of a first terminal, the telephonic session reservation request including an identifier of an instant messaging client of a second terminal and a telephonic session initiation condition; storing corresponding reservation information according to the telephonic session reservation request; sending the reservation information to the instant messaging client of the second terminal according to the identifier of the instant messaging client of the second terminal; receiving a telephonic session reservation feedback message from the instant messaging client of the second terminal; and sending a telephonic session initiation request to the telephonic session client of the first terminal and a telephonic session client of the second terminal according to the reservation information when the telephonic session initiation condition is satisfied.
