First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented conference call management method, the method comprising:
- inferring an Internet Protocol (IP) address of a new user requesting to join a call including at least one other user;
inferring a codec to stream an emulated network pattern for the call in a case where the new user were to join the call, at a network level;
measuring a call quality perceived by the at least one other user in the call, at a user end, while the emulated codec is run on the call; and
measuring an impact on the call quality in a case that the new user joins the call based on the perceived call quality and the emulated network pattern.

Abstract
A conference call management method, system, and computer program product include inferring an Internet Protocol (IP) address of a new user requesting to join a call including at least one other user, inferring a codec to stream an emulated network pattern for the call if the new user were to join the call, measuring a call quality perceived by the at least one other user in the call while the emulated codec is run on the call, and measuring an impact on the call quality in a case that the new user joins the call based on the perceived call quality and the network pattern.

9. A non-transitory computer program product for conference call management, the computer program product comprising a computer-readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a computer to cause the computer to perform:
-
inferring an Internet Protocol (IP) address of a new user requesting to join a call including at least one other user; inferring a codec to stream an emulated network pattern for the call in a case where the new user were to join the call, at a network level; measuring a call quality perceived by the at least one other user in the call, at a user end, while the emulated codec is run on the call; and measuring an impact on the call quality in a case that the new user joins the call based on the perceived call quality and the emulated network pattern. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A conference call management system, said system comprising:
-
a processor; and a memory, the memory storing instructions to cause the processor to perform; inferring an Internet Protocol (IP) address of a new user requesting to join a call including at least one other user; inferring a codec to stream an emulated network pattern for the call in a case where the new user were to join the call, at a network level; measuring a call quality perceived by the at least one other user in the call, at a user end, while the emulated codec is run on the call; and measuring an impact on the call quality in a case that the new user joins the call based on the perceived call quality and the emulated network pattern. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
