Automated and integrated call control server
First Claim
1. A computer program product comprising one or more computer-readable media having computer-executable instructions for implementing a method for allowing call control using data commands provided over a data line in a telephone network that includes a telephonic device that is network connectable to a call control server, the call control server configured to recognize and respond to commands issued by the telephonic device to thereby accomplish telephonic tasks, the method comprising:
- a specific act of receiving a call control command from a data line;
a step for processing so as to fulfill the call control command on one or more voice lines or one or more data lines, said processing step comprising identifying acts of higher and lesser priority;
storing higher priority acts in a first location for more immediate execution; and
storing lower priority acts in a second location for less immediate execution.

Abstract
Allowing a tester of a telephonic device to issue call control commands to a call control server using an intuitive set of commands and using both data lines for data call control commands, and voice lines for touch tone or “DTMF” call control commands. The user may initiate a call control command by either entering the call control command in a command line of a program executed at a telephonic device, or by crafting a function call using an Application Program Interface (API) that allows for more intuitive function calls that are more descriptive of the call control command. During execution, the more descriptive user-entered command or function call is converted into a form that recognized by the call control server. The converted call control command is then transmitted to the call control server.
