What is PASTA• Started as “First of a kind” (FOAK) with IBM

• http://www.ibm.com/press/us/en/pressrelease/20289.wss

• Focus on ’rich presence’. For example status as ”drive to work”, not only ”unavailable”, ”away” etc.

• Many aspects that IBM focuses on:

• Lot of sensors optimize traffic/ dataflow

• Rule engine, ”pattern recognition” deduce relevant information

• ’privacy’ and security

Learn “Call Zones”

Based on:

– location

– day of week

– time of day

– people present

(simulated data)

ProffNett control availability with profiles according to work situation

Double call• Used for example on home office

VoiceMail

Hunting• Sequential chain

VoiceMail

Voicemail if no answer • Standard profile outside work hours

VoiceMail

Secretary if no answer• Meeting profile

Commercial ideas

• Provide “rich presence” to 3rd party developers

• On company level

– Control buildings, heat, lights, guards, alarms, etc.

– Switchboards, call to closest employee

– Mobile office, team work, rescue

– Instant messaging with presence information

• On individual level

– Status for family and friends: In office, On travel,

– Instant messaging with presence information

– Call routing

19

Issues regarding rich presence

• When is privacy invaded?

• What level of automation?

• What not to combine?

• How much detail to use?

• How much history to use?

• How to control sharing (reselling)?
