Extending Instant Messaging to Provide Pervasive Personal Communication

by Wei Li, Fredrik Kilander, Carl Gustaf Jansson
Proceedings of the International Workshop on System Support for Future Mobile Computing Applications (2006)

Abstract

This paper proposes a personal software architecture to provide a user with a pervasive communication capability. The core of this architecture is a personal communication server (PCS) which bridges between different instant messaging networks and extends them with a unified access to the user. A SIP-based implementation of such a communication server is presented, which solves various interoperability problems, and also provides many value-added features, e.g., extended user presence with location information, adaptive communication, better privacy protection, etc. This implementation enables various existing SIP-compatible resources to be re-used and thus simplifies the construction of the proposed software architecture
