It can do intelligent transformations such as summarizing a voice-mail. It uses a Transcoder Service for the data transformation. For this release, we use the Open LDAP directory service. Our philosophy here is that callee has the total control on how they can be reached. This type of service generalizes the location-based services that have appeared in many other systems.
Users control what behaviors are tracked as a way to control privacy.
We did not incorporate the PAC in this release. Another important decision in our architecture design is to leverage cluster computing platforms for processing scalability and local-area robustness. Our control architecture requires processing scalability to a large call volume, continuous availability through fault masking, and cost-effectiveness. Our current release is built on Ninja iSpace computing platform which has not yet provided the above desirable cluster characteristics. Thus, this release does not have a full-fledged fault tolerance and load balancing mechanisms.
