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.

  • Designing a Modern XMPP Service with Ejabberd
    ejabberd architecture and challenges in designing a modern messaging service 17th November 2015 Mickaël Rémond <[email protected]> Introduction ejabberd is scalable and versatile enough to adapt to most of the realtime messaging jobs you will want to handle. For many tasks, like corporate messaging, you can consider ejabberd as a standard package. However, to reach high level of scalability and flexibility, you need to consider ejabberd as an XMPP framework. As such, to build your modern messaging system, you need to: Be familiar with XMPP - Prerequisite. Learn ejabberd architecture Learn ejabberd API Work on solution design. Take control of your messaging platform and design it ! ejabberd: Routing messages in a statefull world ejabberd is a message router. Its role is to support real time messaging feature by moving messages from clients to other clients. In that sense it is stateless. However, to integrate in a statefull world, ejabberd has to support statefull features: Stateless: ejabberd is an XMPP server: Its goal is to route XMPP packets between JID. Statefull: In most case ejabberd depends on data (user base, contact list, …) or produce data (message archive, ...) Goal: deploy an ejabberd that is as stateless as possible, by leveraging backends. What are ejabberd backends ? Backends are pluggable modules you can configure to define where you would like to store part or all of your data. Backends provide the data to the feature modules of ejabberd. They can be read-write or read-only if you do not need some of the ejabberd associated features: For example, if you handle user management elsewhere in your infrastructure, you can use a user back-end that can only authenticate users but not create them.

    Debian’s role in establishing an alternative to Skype Motivation, Challenges and Tactics Daniel Pocock [email protected] http://www.OpenTelecoms.org mini-DebConf, Paris, November 2012 Daniel Pocock [email protected] Debian’s role in establishing an alternative to Skype Introduction Motivation – why do we need to do something? What happens if we do nothing? Challenges – why hasn’t it been done already? Tactics – what can we do over the next 12 months? Daniel Pocock [email protected] Debian’s role in establishing an alternative to Skype Motivation Some background Yes, you’ve seen me before – in Managua. Slides and video are available and highly recommended. Is there something new? – yes. Daniel Pocock [email protected] Debian’s role in establishing an alternative to Skype Motivation Why mention Skype? Widely deployed – hundreds of millions of users Interdependency – unlike other types of software, interoperability is a critical factor in the success of real-time communications software Viber – another proprietary solution that has quickly gained traction thanks to ease of use. The free software community missed the boat in the desktop VoIP arena, now the same may be happening for mobile. Daniel Pocock [email protected] Debian’s role in establishing an alternative to Skype Motivation How bad is it? Marketing – Skype allows Microsoft to study your thoughts and emotions in real time. Feedback to advertisers. Privacy – Microsoft has patented a technique for monitoring Skype. Call records, friend lists, etc. Statistical techniques for identifying who is pregnant, who is a homosexual, have all been exposed recently.

After some research of the jabber server softwares available, I decided to install Ejabberd The reasons I choose Ejabberd is has rich documentation, good community around the project and the project in general looks like one of the best free software jabber servers available presently. Besides that ejabberd doesn't need Apache or MySQL and only depends on erlang programming language. Here is the exact steps I followed to have installed and configured a running XMPP jabber server. 1. Install Ejabberd with apt The installation of Ejabberd is standard, e.g.: debian:~# apt-get --yes install ejabberd Now as ejabberd is installed, some minor configuration is necessery before the server can be launched: 2. Edit /etc/ejabberd/ejabberd.cfg Inside I changed the default settings for: a) Uncomment%%override_acls..

Abstract— Instant Messengers(IM) are the most commonly like Pidgin, Adium using the standard XMPP protocol. The used interacting method to communicate with people main advantage of using a decentralized architecture is that worldwide. IM presence is felt in multicast (chat rooms) and it allows client developers to focus on user experience and one-to-one message exchange between different kind of server developers to focus on reliability and scalability. The client entities. IM using eXtensible Messaging and Presence servers incorporate important security features such as Protocol (XMPP) as the base protocol is able to provide near authentication, channel encryption. real-time text-based communication through the use of The following are the components of the XMPP XML. Social media networks like gtalk, ejabberd, facebook architecture: employ XMPP. XMPP can be implemented with servers as well as without servers. XMPP is not only used in IM but also collaborative services like sensor networks, multiplayer games and Internet-of-Things (IoT) as they require real-time event publication and distribution. In this paper we briefly describe XMPP and its usage in IM and also discuss the market share of XMPP.

    Ejabberd - настройка собственного jabber-сервера Опубликовано muff.kiev.ua (http://muff.kiev.ua) Ejabberd - настройка собственного jabber-сервера Опубликовано muff в Вс, 2014-03-30 04:29 Понадобилось как-то организовать защищенный обмен сообщениями между пользователями небольшого офиса и работающими удаленно сотрудниками. В качестве Jabber-сервера на этот раз решено использовать ejabberd (статья по настройке Jabber-сервера Openfire [1]). Стоит отметить тот факт, что ejabberd является лидером среди Jabber-серверов. Его используют Facebook, Vkontakte, Yandex, Google, etc. Ключевыми особеностями ejabberd являются: веб-консоль администрирования и инструменты командной строки обеспечивают простоту настройки поддерживается шифрование соединений для обеспечения безопасной связи множество встроенных сервисов, в том числе Jabber User Directory и Multi-User Chat стандартный Jabber-транспорт позволяет обеспечивать связь с другими сетями мгновенного обмена сообщениями автоматический сбор статистики для отчетности и анализа системы виртуальный хостинг, что позволяет ejabberd поддерживать несколько виртуальных доменов в одном екземпляре ejabberd общие списки, так что пользователи могут иметь предопределенные контакты в списках контактов поддерживаются внешние хранилища большое количество поддерживаемых протоколов многоязычный интерфейс веб-администрирования полная поддержка IPv6 ejabberd написан на языке Erlang и конфигурационный файл в том числе, однако знаний языка для правки конфигурационного файла не нужно - он интуитивно понятен. Перед установкой и настройкой ejabberd, внесем необходимые изменения в DNS, чтобы потом на это не отвлекаться. Для полноценной работы jabber-сервера, необходимо внести A- и SRV-записи. Если используется DNS-сервер BIND9 [2], то записи будут выглядеть примерно так: _xmpp-server._tcp.jabber.example.org. IN SRV 0 0 5269 jabber.example.org ._jabber._tcp.jabber.example.org. IN SRV 0 0 5269 jabber.example.org ._xmpp-client._tcp.jabber.example.org.
