SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR FUSED SERVICES INCLUDING AN INTEGRATED MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A method for fusing, for a subscriber, a plurality of applications and subscriber data across a plurality of subscriber access devices, the method comprising:
- receiving, by a fusion server, subscriber data for at least one subscriber;
storing, by the fusion server, the received subscriber data in a database of the fusion server;
receiving, by a fusion server, access device data associated with the at least one subscriber;
storing, by the fusion server, the received access device data in the database of the fusion server;
receiving a communication event in a first format that originated from a first application of the plurality of applications;
combining, by the fusion server, the communication event with the received subscriber data and received access device data;
transmitting, by the fusion server, a second communication event, based at least in part on the combining, intended for one or more of a the plurality of subscriber access devices, thereby fusing the first and second applications and providing an enhanced subscriber experience at the access devices.

Abstract
Systems and methods for fusing, for a subscriber, a plurality of applications and subscriber data across a plurality of subscriber access devices are described. The system includes a fusion server coupled to a voice-over-IP telephony switch and a television EBIF server. The fusion server receives and stores the subscriber data such as a list of contacts. The fusion server receives a communication in a first format from a first subscriber access device such as a set-top box, and translates the communication from the first format to a second format. The first and second formats include at least two of session initiation protocol (SIP), hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP), voice-over-IP (VoIP), simple object access protocol over extensible markup language (SOAP/XML), remote procedure call (RPC), and enhanced tv binary exchange format (EBIF). The fusion server transmits the translated communication to a second subscriber access device such as a smart phone or tablet computer.

13. A system that enables the fusion for a subscriber of a plurality of applications and subscriber data across a plurality of subscriber access devices, the system comprising:
-
a fusion server including a processor, a memory including a database, and a network interface, wherein the fusion server is coupled to a voice-over-IP telephony switch and a television EBIF server, and wherein the fusion server is configured to; receive subscriber data for at least one subscriber; store the received subscriber data in the database; receive data regarding an access device associated with the at least one subscriber; store the received access device data in the database of the fusion server; receive a communication event in a first format that originated from a first application of the plurality of applications; combine the communication event with the received subscriber data and received access device data; transmit a second communication event, based at least in part on the combination of the communication event with the received subscriber data and received access device data, the second communication event intended for one or more of a the plurality of subscriber access devices, thereby fusing the first and second applications and providing an enhanced subscriber experience at the access devices. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
