SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SCREENING COMMUNICATION SESSIONS
First Claim
1. A method for centralized screening of a communication session, comprising:
- receiving, at a server, a request from a caller client terminal, to establish a communication session with a callee client terminal;
analyzing, by the server, the request according to a screening set-of-rules; and
transmitting, from the server, a screening response to the caller client terminal according to the analysis, wherein the analyzing and the transmitting are performed by the server independently of at least one of real-time status of the callee client terminal and real-time response instructions from the callee client terminal.

23. A system for screening of a communication session, comprising:
-
a server comprising; a first communication interface for communicating with a caller client terminal; a second communication interface for communication with a callee client terminal; a program store storing code; a processor coupled to the first communication interface, the second communication interface, and the program store for implementing the stored code, the code comprising; code to receive, using the first communication interface, a request from a caller client terminal, to establish a communication session with a callee client terminal, analyze the request according to a screening set-of-rules; and
transmit using the first communication interface, a screening response to the caller client terminal according to the analysis;wherein the analyzing and the transmitting are performed by the server independently of at least one of a real-time status of the callee client terminal and real-time response instructions from the callee client terminal. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26)

27. A computer program product comprising a non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing program code thereon for implementation by a server, the program code comprising:
-
instructions to receive a request from a caller client terminal to establish a communication session with a callee client terminal; instructions to analyze the request according to a screening set-of-rules; and instructions to transmit a screening response to the caller client terminal according to the analysis, wherein the analyzing and the transmitting are performed independently of at least one of real-time status of the callee client terminal and real-time response instructions from the callee client terminal.
