Integrated disparate intelligent peripherals
First Claim
1. A first intelligent peripheral for providing a telecommunications service to a calling party, comprising:
- a receiver that receives a call from the calling party, the first intelligent peripheral interacting with the calling party;
a determiner that determines whether to contact a second intelligent peripheral based on the interaction with the calling party; and
a call initiator that establishes a call connection with the second intelligent peripheral so that the second intelligent peripheral interacts with at least one of the calling party and the first intelligent peripheral to provide the telecommunications service.

Abstract
A telecommunications system provides a telecommunications service to a calling party. The telecommunications system includes a first intelligent peripheral that receives a call from the calling party. The first intelligent peripheral interacts with the calling party and determines whether to contact a second intelligent peripheral based on the interaction with the calling party. The first intelligent peripheral establishes a call connection with the second intelligent peripheral so that the second intelligent peripheral can interact with at least one of the calling party and the first intelligent peripheral to provide the telecommunications service.

7. A method for providing a telecommunications service to a calling party using a plurality of intelligent peripherals, the method comprising:
-
receiving a call from the calling party at a first intelligent peripheral that interacts with the calling party;
determining whether to contact a second intelligent peripheral based on the interaction with the calling party; and
establishing a call connection with the second intelligent peripheral so that the second intelligent peripheral can interact with at least one of the calling party and the first intelligent peripheral to provide the telecommunications service. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A computer readable medium that stores a program for providing a telecommunications service to a calling party using a plurality of intelligent peripherals, the computer readable medium comprising:
-
a first call interaction source code segment at a first intelligent peripheral that receives a call from the calling party, the first call interaction source code segment interacting with the calling party;
a determining source code segment that determines whether to contact a second intelligent peripheral based on the interaction with the calling party; and
a call connection initiating source code segment that initiates a call by establishing a call connection with the second intelligent peripheral so that the second intelligent peripheral interacts with at least one of the calling party and the first intelligent peripheral to provide the telecommunications service. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A computer readable medium that stores a program for providing a telecommunications service to a calling party using a plurality of intelligent peripherals, the computer readable medium comprising:
-
a call connection initiating source code segment at a first intelligent peripheral that receives a call from a second intelligent peripheral so that the first intelligent peripheral can interact with at least one of the calling party and the second intelligent peripheral to provide the telecommunications service; and
a call interaction source code segment at the first intelligent peripheral, the call interaction source code segment interacting with at least one of the calling party and the second intelligent peripheral. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22)
