Abstract

A communications system including providing a communication device, accessing a communication network with the communication device, contacting a server system through the communication network, and communicating commands from the server system to the communication device through the communication network.

Claims

1. A communication system comprising:

providing a communication device;

accessing a communication network connected to the communication device;

contacting a server system connected to the communication network;

passing information from the communication device to the server system; and

launching an application on the communication device from the server system through the communication network.

2. The system as claimed in claim 1, wherein launching the application comprises responding to a voice call with automated appropriate message-based commands including SMS, stream-based or packet-based, to launch a predetermined application on the communication device wherein a reply is real time or non real time, through a data network.

3. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein providing the communication device comprises providing a smart communication device.

4. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein providing the communication device comprises providing a portable compute device.

5. The system as claimed in claim 1 wherein contacting the server system comprises authenticating the communication device connection to the server system.

6. A communication system comprising:

providing a communication device having voice dialing through voice command dialing, speed dialing or manual dialing;

accessing a communication network having a telephone network or a data network through voice over IP with the communication device;

contacting a server system having authentication for the communication device through the communication network;

passing application information from the communication device to a server system through voice interaction;

communicating commands from the server system to launch a predetermined application on the communication device or a plurality of communication devices; and

communicating services between the communication device and the server system.

7. The system as claimed in claim 6 wherein accessing the communication network comprises a voice call, including a voice activated call, a speed dialing call and any other ways of initiating the voice call.

8. The system as claimed in claim 6 wherein contacting a server system comprises authenticating the communication device connected to a server.

9. The system as claimed in claim 6 wherein communicating commands from the server system comprises sending a reply through the data network to a call from the communication device.

10. The system as claimed in claim 6 wherein communicating services comprises interacting between the predetermined applications connected to the server system.

11. A communication system comprising:

a communication device;

a communication network connected to the communication device;

a server system connected to the communication network, the server system having a communication circuitry for communicating with the communication device, including a remote application launch circuitry for launching an application on the communication device from the server system through the communication network.

12. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the remote application launch circuitry of the server system generates appropriate commands to launch a predetermined application.

13. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the communication device comprises a smart communication device.

14. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the communication device comprises a portable compute device.

15. The system as claimed in claim 11 wherein the server system further comprises an authentication circuitry for authenticating the communication device.

16. The system as claimed in claim 11, and wherein the remote application launch circuitry further generates commands from the server system to launch a predetermined application in one or more communication devices.

17. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein a communication network comprises call communication circuitry to process a voice command, speed dialing, manual dialing, or a combination thereof.

18. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the communication network comprises a communication network having a telephone network or data network transporting voice through voice over IP.

19. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the communication device comprises a communication device having voice dialing.

20. The system as claimed in claim 16 wherein the communication device comprises a service communication circuitry for generating service applications commands between the communication device and the server system.
