US 2010/0150320 A1 · HANDLING COMMUNICATION SESSION DISCONNECTION AND RECONNECTION

Abstract

A method, system and computer program product records missed information that is communicated between one or more connected communication terminals during a disconnection period and replays the missed information when a temporarily-disconnected communication terminal reconnects to the active communication session. The method comprises: detecting disconnection of the communication terminal from the active communication session; in response to detecting the disconnection, automatically recording the missed information exchanged between the one or more connected communication terminals remaining in the active communication session; detecting reconnection of the disconnected terminal to the active communication session; and delivering the recorded information exchange to the reconnected terminal, in response to detecting the reconnection.

Dependent claims

A method for handling missed information communicated by one or more connected terminals during an active communication session from which at least one communication terminal has disconnected, the method comprising:

detecting disconnection of the communication terminal from the active communication session;
in response to detecting the disconnection, automatically recording missed information communicated by the one or more connected terminals remaining in the active communication session;
detecting reconnection of the communication terminal to the active communication session;
and
autonomously delivering a recording of the missed information to the reconnected communication terminal.

2 more elements

A communication system for recording missed information exchange during an active communication session of one or more connected user terminals for a reconnected user terminal, the system comprising:

at least one processor having a set of instruction stored in memory, which when executed, cause the at least one processor to:
detect disconnection of the communication terminal from the active communication session;
in response to detecting the disconnection, automatically record missed information communicated by the one or more connected terminals remaining in the active communication session;
detect reconnection of the communication terminal to the active communication session;
and
autonomously deliver a recording of the missed information to the reconnected communication terminal.

3 more elements

A computer program product including computer readable medium having a set of instructions executable by a processor to:

detect disconnection of the communication terminal from the active communication session;
in response to detecting the disconnection, automatically record missed information communicated by the one or more connected terminals remaining in the active communication session;
detect reconnection of the communication terminal to the active communication session;
and
autonomously deliver a recording of the missed information to the reconnected communication terminal.
