Abstract

The present disclosure provides a web browser having an HTTP client and a SIP user agent. The HTTP client is operable to receive and render data transmitted via hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) communication protocol. The SIP user agent is operable to receive and render data transmitted via session initiation protocol (SIP) communication protocol.

Claims

1. A web browser, comprising:

an HTTP client operable to receive and render data transmitted via HTTP communication protocol; and

a SIP user agent operable to send data via session initiation protocol (SIP) communication protocol and further operable to receive and render data transmitted via SIP.

2. The web browser of claim 1 wherein the data received via SIP communication protocol comprises service logic data and presentation logic data related to an application resident on different system than the system whereon the web browser is resident.

3. The web browser of claim 1 further comprising a document object model that has been extended to support SIP communication.

4. The web browser of claim 1 further comprising an engine operable to execute a script that implements the service logic data.

5. The web browser of claim 4 further comprising at least one mechanism operable to initiate and respond to SIP-based messages.

6. The web browser of claim 1 wherein the web browser is implemented on at least one of:

a computer system;

a mobile telephone handset;

a personal digital assistant; and

a television.

7. A data communication architecture, comprising:

a server component operable to store and transmit service logic data and presentation logic data related to an application, at least some of the information used by the application communicated using session initiation protocol; and

a client component operable to receive the information from the application communicated using session initiation protocol from the server component, the client component further operable to promote use of the information by a web browser.

8. The architecture of claim 7 wherein the server component is further operable to store and transmit data that follows an HTTP-based communication protocol and the client component is further operable to update the display in the web browser based on the HTTP-based data.

9. The architecture of claim 7 wherein the client component is further operable to initiate and respond to a session initiation protocol message.

10. The architecture of claim 7 wherein the client component further comprises a document object model that has been extended to support session initiation protocol communication.

11. The architecture of claim 7 wherein the service logic data is implemented with a high-level scripting language.

12. The architecture of claim 7 wherein the client component is further operable to execute the service logic data implemented with the high-level scripting language.

13. The architecture of claim 7 further comprising a system operable to implement the client component and the web browser, and wherein the system is further defined as a system selected from a group consisting of a computer system, a mobile telephone handset, a personal digital assistant, and a television.

14. A method for enabling a web browser for session initiation protocol, comprising:

providing a web browser having a SIP component;

the web browser communicating information via session initiation protocol; and

the SIP component promoting use of the information by the web browser.

15. The method of claim 14, further comprising:

implementing service logic data and presentation logic data for an application on a server;

transmitting using session initiation protocol the service logic data and presentation logic data from the server to the web browser on a client; and

updating a display on the web browser based on the service logic data and presentation logic data.

16. The method of claim 15, wherein the application enables at least one of:

an IP telephony telephone call;

a video presentation;

a text-based communication;

a game;

a location-based service; and

a shopping service.

17. The method of claim 15 further comprising updating the display of the web browser based on HTTP-based data transmitted from the server.

18. The method of claim 15 further comprising transmitting data for a user interface for the SIP-based application via HTTP.

19. The method of claim 14, wherein the web browser is provided on a system selected from a group consisting of a computer system, a mobile telephone handset, a personal digital assistant, and a television

20. The method of claim 14, wherein the SIP component promoting use of the information by the web browser is further defined as the SIP component promoting the web browser displaying at least some of the information.
