Patent

CA 2301434

A method and apparatus for a conference call mediation service which allows for the scheduling of multi-participant conferences over the Internet is presented. A subscriber who desires to host a conference sends a conference request to a Web Service Control Point (WSCP) with attributes regarding the conference (i.e., date, time, conference agenda, etc.). The WSCP generates a unique conference ID, identifying the attributes of the proposed conference, and broadcasts a conference invitation to potential conference participants. Potential participants respond to the conference invitation and may make changes to, or modify, the attributes of the proposed conference. The WSCP acts as a negotiator between potential conference participants by continuing to resend the modified and unmodified conference attributes until an agreement regarding the conference is reached. At that point the WSCP schedules the conference with a communication service provider ant sends a confirmation to each participant.
