Communication method of supplying information in intelligent network and apparatus therefor
First Claim
1. A communication method for providing information in an intelligent network including a transmission layer having a user terminal and a switching system and an intelligent layer issuing a connection command of a line to said transmission layer, said communication method comprising the steps of:
- registering into at least one database an identification number of the user terminal, an identification number of an equipment for performing an information providing service, and a time to receive the information providing service input, by a user of said user terminal, said at least one database is included in said transmission layer or said intelligent layer, collating a current time with said time to receive the information providing service registered in said at least one database by a timer circuit provided in said transmission layer or said intelligent layer where said at least one database is located; and
automatically controlling a connection between said user terminal and said equipment for performing the information providing service when said current time corresponds to said time to receive said information providing service registered in said at least one database as indicated by said collating step.

Abstract
A communication method for providing information in an intelligent network includes a step of entering by a user a connection number of the user terminal, a connection number of an information provider terminal and a time to receive the information providing service into a user database provided in a transmission layer, a step of reading the data registered in the user database into a service control database provided in the intelligent layer, a step of referring to the service control database to automatically connect the user terminal and the information provider terminal when a service start time is reached and automatically disconnect the connection therebetween when a service end time is reached.

2. A communication system for providing information in an intelligent network including a transmission layer having a user terminal and a switching system and an intelligent layer issuing a connection command of a line to said transmission layer, said communication system comprising:
-
a first controller for registering at least one database into at least one database an identification number of the user terminal, an identification number of an equipment for performing an information providing service, and a time to receive the information providing service input, by a user of said user terminal, said at least one database is included in said transmission layer or said intelligent layer, a second controller for collating a current time with said time to receive the information providing service registered in said at least one database by a timer circuit provided in said transmission layer or said intelligent layer where said at least one database is located; and
a third controller for automatically controlling a connection between said user terminal and said equipment for performing the information providing service when said current time corresponds to said time to receive said information providing service registered in said at least one database as indicated by said second controller.

3. A method of conducting an information providing service in a network comprising the steps of:
-
storing, in a database at an information providing service, an identifier of an information provider terminal and a service start time indicating a time to start an information providing service, said identifier and said service start time being received from a user of the information providing service;
comparing a current time with said service start time stored in said database by a timer provided in the network; and
providing an information from said information provider terminal to said user through said network based on said identifier stored in said database, when said service start time stored in said database corresponds to said current time. - View Dependent Claims (4)

5. A method of conducting an information providing service in a network which includes a switch and a controller having a timer, and a database, said method comprising the steps of:
-
storing, in a database at an information providing service, an identifier of an information provider terminal connected to said network and a service start time indicating a time to start an information providing service, said identifier and said service start time being received from a user of the information providing service;
comparing a current time with said service start time stored in said database by a timer; and
providing an information from said information provider terminal to said user through said switch based on said identifier stored in said database, when said service start time stored in said database corresponds to said current time. - View Dependent Claims (6)

7. A method of conducting an information providing service in a network which includes a switch and a controller having timer, and a database, said method comprising the steps of:
-
storing, in a database at an information providing service, an identifier of an information provider terminal connected to said network and a service start time indicating a time to start an information providing service to a user terminal connected to said network, said identifier and said service start time being received from a user of said network;
comparing a current time with said service start time stored in said database by said timer; and
controlling said switch to provide an information from said information provider terminal to said database, when said service start time corresponds to said current time. - View Dependent Claims (8)

9. A method of conducting an information providing service from an information provider terminal to a user terminal through a network, said comprising the steps of:
-
registering, in a database at an information providing service, an identifier of said information provider terminal and a service start time indicating a time to start said information providing service, said identifier and said service start time being received from a user of said information providing service;
comparing a current time with said service start time registered in said database by a timer provided in said network; and
providing an information from said information provider terminal to said user terminal through said network based on said identifier registered in said database, when said service start time corresponds to said current time. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11)

12. A method of conducting an information providing service via an information provider terminal to a user terminal through a network which includes a switch, a timer and a database, said method comprising the steps of:
-
registering, at said database of an information providing service, an identifier of said information provider terminal and a service start time indicating a time to start an information providing service to said user terminal, said identifier and said service start time being received from a user of said information providing service;
comparing a current time with said service start time registered in said database by a timer; and
providing an information from said information provider terminal to said user terminal through said switch based on said identifier registered in said database, when said service start time corresponds to said current time. - View Dependent Claims (13)
