Systems and methods for individual telephone numbering assignment and administration in a telecommunications network are disclosed. Particularly, the invention relates to the concept of acquiring individual telephone numbers instead of acquiring a block of telephone numbers from an administration agency. According to disclosed embodiments, the system and method allow a carrier to request an individual telephone number from a numbering administrator. The numbering administrator verifies that the carrier is authorized to request an individual telephone in a particular geographic area. If the carrier is authorized, the numbering administrator obtains an individual telephone number from its database and provides it to the carrier. The carrier initiates an intra-carrier assignment with an administrative agency to get the individual telephone number assigned to it. The administrative agency processes the assignment activation request, and upon completion of the addignment process, notifies all carriers that the individual telephone number is assigned to the requesting carrier.

AUTOMATICALLY PRESCRIBING TOTAL BUDGET FOR MARKETING AND SALES RESOURCES AND ALLOCATION ACROSS SPENDING CATEGORIES
A facility for automatically prescribing, for a distinguished offering, an allocation of resources to a total marketing budget and/or individual marketing activities is described.
A monitoring system is provided that allows owners of monitoring accounts to share web monitoring data collected under the direction of the monitoring account. Account owners are able to interact with the monitoring system to identify recipient accounts for shared web monitoring data and apply permissions at a granular level so that portions of monitored data can be shared with varying permission levels. Grouping can also be employed by an account owner to facilitate efficient sharing of monitoring data to many recipient accounts. The monitoring system also provides analysis utilities that can be used by a recipient account to aggregate shared with owned data and generate related reports as desired.
Systems and methods for monitoring web service transactions include a monitoring server that is configured to monitor a web service transaction. The monitoring server allows a user to describe a sequence of web service requests that in combination define a web service transaction. The monitoring server sends out the web service requests in sequence to remote agents that are deployed in geographically diverse locations. The agents send the requests to the target web service and the results are provided back to the monitoring server. The monitoring server receives the results and then dynamically constructs the next request in the series based on the sequence of requests from the user and data from the response to a prior request. The dynamically constructed next request is then sent to remote agents for execution and the results are provided to the monitoring server.

The present invention is directed to a system and method for user account portability across communication systems. The present invention allows users to switch communication service providers and retain their service and account profile information when moving between communication environments. The user can switch to a new communication service provider without losing the assets of the user's settings and account profile that the user generated for the previous communication service provider. The user need not re-enter or re¬ configure various account settings after moving to the new communication service provider, as such information is propagated from the user's previous service provider. Thus, users can enjoy service continuity and can choose any communication service provider according to their considerations (e.g., service level, cost, benefits, or the like), and not incur service usage penalties due to the switch.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FILTERING OFFENSIVE INFORMATION CONTENT IN COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS
The present invention is directed to a system and method for filtering offensive information content in communication environments. The system includes an offensive information filtering server module in communication with a plurality of user communication devices. The offensive information filtering server module includes an offensive content detection module. The offensive content detection module is configured to detect offensive information content in communications between the user communication devices. The offensive information filtering server module includes an offensive content filtering module in communication with the offensive content detection module. The offensive content filtering module is configured to filter the offensive information content detected in the communications by the offensive content detection module.
Exemplary embodiments of the present invention are directed to a system and method for user identity portability in communication systems. The present invention can provide user identity portability across communication networks that do not necessarily impose a phone number as the identity, addressing, or routing identifier. According to exemplary embodiments, a user identified by any suitable user identifier can switch network operators (e.g., from operator A to operator B) and retain their user identifier. For example, an identity server can support reverse lookup ENUM usage for URI and other identity correlation. Thus, all communication contacts that the user had while with operator A can seamlessly continue communications with the user even after the user switches to operator B.
