Hype Cycle for Unified Communications and Collaboration, 2012.......................................... 83 Analysis What You Need to Know This Hype Cycle examines the key unified communications and collaboration (UCC) technologies, and forecasts how they will impact users and business performance during the next 10 years. Seventy percent of these UCC technologies will mature within five years, and 60% will have a transformational or high impact if their implementation is led by genuine business requirements. The separate communications technologies that are at the heart of UCC suites and solutions are progressing steadily toward maturity. A stand-out development is the way that enterprises are embracing emerging collaboration tools to extend basic unified communications (UC) to include collaboration solutions (UCC) in a very significant way. Social networking is a similarly significant source of business innovation from an adjacent market. The high innovation rate in both collaboration and social networking is counterbalanced by numerous short-lived solutions that begin as interesting products

Exchange of messages takes place in universally used languages like English, French, etc. where both the users know how to communicate in a common language. Thus chatting on mobile phones is a luxury when both the parties involved know a common language. Hence we have implemented ALLTALK™ which is a Windows 8 phone based chatting application which makes cross language communication possible using mobile programming and networking technology.This application will enable the communication between two persons irrespective of the language each user wishes to use individually. The various modes of communication available in this messenger are through text and voice. Due to the best processing power provided among the available smartphones and high battery life we choose to work on windows 8 platform. Thus we have successfully eliminated the language barrier and enable ease of communication through this application. Keywords: Cross Language communication, instant messenger, socket connection, translator,Windows phone app.

IM and Presence Service Features and Functions 1 IM and Presence Service Features and Functions SIP Interface Figure 1: IM and Presence Service Basic Deployment SIP Interface A SIP connection handles the presence information exchange between Cisco Unified Communications Manager and Cisco Unified Presence. To enable the SIP connection on Cisco Unified Communications Manager, you must configure a SIP trunk pointing to the Cisco Unified Presence server. On Cisco Unified Presence, configuring Cisco Unified Communications Manager as a Presence Gateway will allow Cisco Unified Presence to send SIP subscribe messages to Cisco Unified Communications Manager over the SIP trunk. Note Cisco Unified Presence does not support clients (Cisco clients or third party) connecting to Cisco Unified Presence using SIP/SIMPLE interface over TLS. Only a SIP connection over TCP is supported.

  • Social Networking Service
    Social networking service A social networking service is an online service, platform, or site that focuses on building and reflecting of social networks or social relations among people, e.g., who share interests and/or activities. A social network service essentially consists of a representation of each user (often a profile), his/her social links, and a variety of additional services. Most social network services are web based and provide means for users to interact over the internet, such as e-mail and instant messaging. Online community services are sometimes considered as a social network service, though in a broader sense, social network service usually means an individual-centered service whereas online community services are group-centered. Social networking sites allow users to share ideas, activities, events, and interests within their individual networks. The main types of social networking services are those which contain category places (such as former school year or classmates), means to connect with friends (usually with self-description pages) and a recommendation system linked to trust. Popular methods now combine many of these, with Facebook and Twitter widely used worldwide, Nexopia (mostly in Canada); Bebo, VKontakte, Hi5, Hyves (mostly in The Netherlands), Draugiem.lv (mostly in Latvia), StudiVZ (mostly in Germany), iWiW (mostly in Hungary), Tuenti (mostly in Spain), Nasza-Klasa (mostly in Poland), Decayenne, Tagged, XING, Badoo and Skyrock in parts of Europe; Orkut and Hi5 in South America and Central America; and Friendster, Mixi, Multiply, Orkut, Wretch, renren and Cyworld in Asia and the Pacific Islands and Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn and Orkut in India.
