Abstract-Presence technology is going to be an integral part of the next generation of communication technology. It can eliminate telephone tag between two parties (caller and callee), which will increase productivity of the parties and reduce unnecessary bandwidth usage of unwanted calls. In this paper, we propose a Willingness Estimator that computes willingness level of a callee for receiving calls from a specified caller. By knowing the willingness value of the callee the caller can decide on proceeding with the call or not. The proposed Willingness Estimator is tested with real mobile user data, and these results are highly accurate. We measure willingness based on calling patterns (arrival time, location, day) of a caller to a callee and this could serve as one of the future presence based services. The results can be used in telecommunication networks such as PSTN, Cellular networks, and Voice over IP networks

“…In [6] the SIP was used to create presence architecture. In [7] the authors' work was to reduce enterprise server load by mobile clients sharing presence information with a network and only one of the client acts as a gateway to interact with the server to supply the presence information of the network. In [8] the authors developed the BusinessFinder, a service that can track and use the location of both requesting users and vendors to match users to nearby vendors, use a variety of channels (such as IM, SMS, or voice) to capture the true availability of such nomadic vendors, and use communityfeedback to eliminate poor-performing vendors from its directory.…”

-Presence-enabled telephony services can reduce telephone tag and improve customer satisfaction. In this paper we proposed the Bayesian inference model to calculate the willingness level of the callee to accept calls. Before making a call, the caller may use the willingness calculator to find out whether the callee is available. Based on this level the user can make a decision whether to make a call. For validation of our results, we used actual call logs of 100 users collected at MIT by the Reality Mining Project group for a period of 8 months. We used time of the day, day of the week, talk-time and location for calculating the willingness level. Our results show a good agreement between computed willingness level and the number of missed/rejected calls. This service can be included as part of the presence server. When deployed, this service can increase productivity, avoid unwanted calls and reduce the call traffic congestion. This service is beneficial to both subscribers and phone service providers. However, in order to make this service a reality, we need to take into account other factors such social closeness, proximity, multiplexity and reputation of the caller. *

P2P group management systems

Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks are becoming eminent platforms for both distributed computing and interpersonal communication. Their role in contemporary multimedia content delivery and communication systems is strong, as witnessed by many popular applications and services. Groups in P2P systems can originate from the relations between humans, or they can be defined with purely technical criteria such as proximity. In this article, we present a conceptual analysis of P2P group management systems. We illustrate how groups are formed using different P2P system architectures, and analyze the advantages and disadvantages of using each P2P system architecture for implementing P2P group management. The evaluation criteria in the analysis are performance, robustness, fairness, suitability for battery-powered devices, scalability, and security. The outcome of the analysis facilitates the selection of an appropriate P2P system architecture for implementing P2P group management in both further research and prototype development.
