First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of processing multi-media telecommunication transactions by a call processing center, such method comprising the steps of:
- detecting a call of the multi-media telecommunication transactions by a host computer of the call processing center;
determining a type of the detected call and assigning a tracking classification based upon the determined call type;
transferring a transaction request including the tracking classification from the host to a call processor for assignment of an agent to the call based, in part, upon the tracking classification;
transferring an identifier of the assigned agent from the call processor to the host; and
transferring the call to the assigned agent.

Abstract
A method and apparatus are provided for processing multi-media telecommunication transactions by a call processing center. The method includes the steps of detecting a call of the multi-media telecommunication transactions by a host computer of the call processing center and transferring a transaction request from the host to a call processor for assignment of an agent to the call. The method further includes the steps of transferring an identifier of the assigned agent from the call processor to the host and transferring the call received from the host to the assigned agent.
