TECHNIQUES TO MANAGE PRESENCE INFORMATION
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- retrieving presence temporal information for a home time zone;
normalizing the presence temporal information for a local time zone of a presentity node to form normalized presence temporal information; and
sending presence state information from the presentity node to a presence server based on the normalized presence temporal information.

Abstract
Techniques to manage presence information are described. An apparatus may comprise a presence management component operative to manage presence information for a presentity node. The presence management component may comprise a presence normalization module operative to retrieve presence temporal information for a home time zone, and normalize the presence temporal information for a local time zone of the presentity node to form normalized presence temporal information. The presence management component may further comprise a presence control module communicatively coupled to the presence normalization module. The presence control module may be operative to send presence state information from the presentity node to a presence server based on the normalized presence temporal information. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

9. An article comprising a storage medium containing instructions that if executed enable a system to:
-
retrieve presence temporal information for a first time zone; normalize the presence temporal information for a second time zone of a presentity node to form normalized presence temporal information; and send presence state information from the presentity node to a presence server based on the normalized presence temporal information, the presence state information comprising presence available state information or presence unavailable state information. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
