Description

用于在移动设备上启动即时消息传送的系统和方法
发明领域
本发明通常涉及移动计算,尤其是在移动设备上启动即时消息传送。
发明背景
个体之间的即时消息传送已经变得非常流行,通常,即时消息传送可以使得个体彼此之间通过他们各自的个人电脑建立私有聊天会话。典型地,每一个体创建一个屏幕名并把屏幕名提交给一个存储屏幕名到数据库中的即时消息传送系统。对与一个特定个人聊天感兴趣的人们可以把与那个特定的人相关的屏幕名加到他们的私有列表。然后,当在他们私有列表上的任何一个人在线时,即时消息传送系统发送一个警报,指示那个人在线并可以聊天。为了与希望的聊天对象聊天,可以通过因特网启动聊天会话。
本即时消息传送系统适合使用保持到因特网持久连接的计算设备的个人。这些个人可在即时消息传送系统注册他们的计算设备并把他们的状态通知给即时消息传送系统(例如,“在线”)。但是,即时消息传送系统无法适合使用移动设备的移动个人。其中的一个原因是,移动个人通常不会在他们的移动设备上任何有效持续时间保持持久因特网连接。不保持持久因特网连接的原因通常是出于对他们的移动设备相关的成本和电池寿命的顾虑。例如,如果移动设备保持持久因特网连接,它的电池很可能几个小时就耗尽。这使得移动设备的其他用途(例如,电话通话,电子邮件,等等)变得无用了。
考虑到即时消息传送的需求,需要把即时消息传送扩展到使用移动设备移动的个人。
发明概要
本发明提供了启动移动设备发送和接收即时消息的方法和系统。由于移动设备通常不会保持持久因特网连接,移动设备不可用于接收即时消息。根据本发明,创建唤醒移动设备的用户化的SMS消息,以便启动即时消息传送。一旦移动设备被用户化的SMS消息唤醒,移动设备可通过发送回复的用户化的SMS消息的方式响应。回复的用户化的SMS消息通过蜂窝网络发送。回复后,用户化的SMS消息被转换成回复的即时消息,回复的即时消息通过持久因特网连接发送至通过采用用户化的SMS消息负责唤醒移动设备的发送器。可选地,移动设备可以通过创建因特网连接,并通过因特网连接建立聊天会话来响应。聊天会话允许负责唤醒移动设备的发送器和移动设备通过因特网连接交换即时消息。

优选实施例的详细描述
本发明致力于提供在移动设备上启动即时消息传送的系统和方法。简要描述,本发明创建发送到移动设备的用户化的短消息服务(SMS)消息。用户化的SMS消息是基于发送器发送的即时消息。在接收到用户化的SMS消息时,移动设备确定用户化的SMS消息与即时消息关联。基于这个判决,移动设备“唤醒”并响应即时消息。移动设备可以通过发送一个回复用户化的SMS消息给发送器来响应。可选地,移动设备可通过创建因特网连接并与发送器建立聊天会话响应。通过阅读以下的详细说明,对于本领域的技术人员来说,本发明的这些和其他方面将变得清楚。
本发明可以通过操作在分布式的计算网络和无线计算网络内的一个或多个部件实现。部件可包括在各种配置的计算系统上操作的软件程序或应用程序。下列讨论首先描述可用于实现本发明实施例的两种常用的计算系统。该常用的两种计算系统在图1和图2中举例说明。接下来,以图3-7为说明,关于本发明的两个说明性的实现方式详细讨论基于这两种计算系统展开描述。
说明性的操作环境
参照图1,实现本发明一个典型的系统包括一个计算设备,如计算设备100。在一个非常基本的配置中,计算设备100典型地包括至少一个处理单元102和系统内存104。取决于准确的计算设备配置和类型,系统内存104可以是易失性的(如RAM),非易失性的(如ROM,闪存,等等)或两者的组合。系统内存104典型地包括一操作系统105,一个或多个程序模块106,并可能包括程序数据107。此基本配置可通过在图1中虚线108中的那些部件图解说明。
计算设备100也可有附加的特点或功能。例如,计算设备100也可包括附加数据存储设备(可移动和/或不可移动),比如,例如,磁盘,光盘,或磁带。这些附加的存储可通过在图1中的可移动存储器109和不可移动存储器110图解说明。计算机存储介质可包括可由任何存储信息的方法或技术实现的易失性和非易失性,可移动和不可移动介质,所述信息如计算机可读指令,数据结构,程序模块,或其他数据。系统内存104,可移动存储器109和不可移动存储器110都是计算机存储介质的例子。计算机存储介质包括,但不仅限于,RAM,ROM,EEPROM,闪存或其他内存技术,CD-ROM,数字多能光盘(DVD)或其他光存储器,盒式磁带,磁带,磁盘存储器或其他磁存储器设备,或任何其他可用于存储想得到的信息并可被计算设备100访问的介质。任何这样的计算机存储介质都可为设备100的一部分。计算设备100也可有输入设备112,例如键盘,鼠标,笔,语音输入设备,触摸输入设备等。输出设备114如显示器,扬声器,打印机等也可包括在其中。这些设备在本领域中众所周知就不用在这里赘述了。
计算设备100也可包括使得设备与其他计算设备118通信的通信连接116,如通过一个网络。通信连接116是一个通信媒介的例子。通信媒介可典型地包括计算机可读指令,数据结构,程序模块,或者调制的数据信号中的其他数据,如载波或其他传输机制,并包括任何信息传递媒介。术语“调制的数据信号”的意思是有一个或多个自己的字符集,或是以这样的方式改变以便在信号中编码信息的信号。作为例子,但并不仅限于此,通信媒介包括有线媒介如有线网络或直接有线(direct-wired)连接,以及无线媒体,例如声音的,RF,红外的或其他的无线媒体。此处用到的术语计算机可读媒体包括存储介质和通信媒介。
参照图2,一个实现本发明的典型的系统包括移动设备,如移动设备200。移动设备200有一个处理器260,内存262,显示器228,和键盘232。内存262通常包括易失性内存(例如,RAM)和非易失性内存(例如,ROM,闪存,等等)。移动设备200包括操作系统264,如Microsoft公司的Windows CE操作系统或其他操作系统,它常驻内存262并在处理器260上执行。键盘232可为按键数字拨号盘(如在典型的电话上),多键键盘(如普通键盘)。显示器228可以是液晶显示器,或任何其他类型的在移动设备中常用的显示器。显示器228也可是触摸式的,也可作为输入设备。
一个或多个应用程序266被加载到内存262中,并在操作系统264上运行。应用程序的例子包括电话拨号程序,电子邮件程序,日程安排程序,PIM(个人信息管理)程序,字处理程序,电子制表程序,因特网浏览器程序,即时消息传送程序,等等。移动计算设备200在内存262中也包括非易失性存储器268。非易失性存储器268可用于存储即使移动计算设备200断电也不应丢失的持久信息。应用程序266可使用存储器268中的信息并在存储器268中存储信息,如电子邮件应用程序使用的电子邮件或其他消息,PIM使用的联络信息,日程安排程序使用的约会信息,字处理程序使用的文档,即时消息传送程序使用的即时消息传送信息等等。
移动计算设备200有电源270,可以由一个或多个电池实现。电源270可进一步包括外部电源,如一个AC适配器或一个加电的连接托架(docking cradle),这些外部电源补充或给电池充电。
移动计算设备200也以两种外部通知机制显示:LED240和音频接口274。这些设备可直接与电源270连接,这样当激活时,它们可以保持一段由通知机制指示的持续时间的开机状态,即使处理器260和其他部件可能关机以节约电池电源。LED240可被编程为不确定地保持开机状态,直到用户采取行动以指示设备的加电状态。音频接口274用于向用户提供音频信号,以及从用户接收音频信号。例如,音频接口274可以与扬声器连接,用于提供声音输出,并可与麦克风连接,用于接收声音输入,以便电话通话。
移动计算设备200也包括无线电接口层272,该接口层执行发射和接收无线电频率通信的功能。无线电接口层272通过通信公司或服务提供者,促进了在移动计算设备200和外部世界之间的无线电连通性。去往和来自无线电接口层272的传输在操作系统264控制之下进行。换句话说,通过无线电接口层272接收的通信可通过操作系统264传播到应用程序266,反之亦然。
说明性的即时消息传送系统
图3是通常(generally)用来图解说明在两个计算系统之间启动即时消息传送的即时消息传送系统300的功能方框图,其中一个计算机系统是一个移动设备320-322。在本发明的一个实施例中,两个计算系统是个人电脑310-312和移动设备320-322。个人电脑310-312是如上述结合图1描述的一个计算设备,同时移动设备320-322是如上述结合图2描述的一个移动计算设备,每个个人电脑310-312包括一个即时消息应用程序330。在本发明的另一个实施例中,两个计算系统可均为如上述结合图2描述的移动设备320-322。在本发明的进一步改进中,一个即时消息客户应用程序340驻留在移动设备320-322中。
另外,即时消息传送系统300包括一个(IM)服务器350和一个IM/SMS服务器360。IM服务器350和IM/SMS服务器360都是例如上述结合图1描述的计算设备。IM服务器350被配置为在两个或更多个人电脑310-312之间执行即时消息传送服务。在一个实施例中,IM服务器350被配置为服务器,运行MicrosoftWINDOWS 2000操作系统,并运行IM服务器应用程序352。IM服务器应用程序352被配置为维护用户别名的数据库和维护每个用户别名的状态。简要地说,即时消息传送服务启动两个或多个个人电脑310-312以建立私有聊天室,并且实时地交换私有消息。当前有几种即时消息传送服务可用,如Microsoft公司的MSNMESSENGER即时消息传送服务。这些消息服务对于本领域技术人员来说很熟悉,并且在足够理解本发明的范围内展开描述。
在一个实施例中,IM/SMS服务器360被配置为服务器,运行MicrosoftWINDOWS 2000操作系统,并运行IM/SMS转换应用程序362。在另外一个实施例中,IM/SMS转换应用程序362′(在虚线框中显示)是一个驻留在IM服务器350中的软件组件。此外,一个本领域的技术人员将认识到不偏离本发明的范围,由IM/SMS转换应用程序362提供的功能也可以被组合到IM服务器应用程序352中。简要描述,IM/SMS转换应用程序362被配置为向移动设备警报即时消息,并支持与移动设备交换即时消息。
即时消息传送系统300包括广域网(WAN)/局域网(LAN)370,蜂窝/寻呼机网络380,和网关390。典型地,WAN/LAN370在计算设备之间发送信息。一个WAN的例子就是通过网关主机,路由器,交换机,集线器等等,把上百万的计算机连接起来的因特网。LAN的一个例子就是用于把在一间办公室的计算机连接起来的网络。WAN可以连接多个LAN。蜂窝/寻呼机网络380是负责传送消息至无线电设备,和从无线电设备接收消息的网络。蜂窝/寻呼机网络380可包括无线和有线的部件。例如,蜂窝/寻呼机网络可包括连接到有线电话网络的蜂窝塔(cellular tower)。典型地,蜂窝塔传播去往和来自小区电话,长途通信连接装置等等的通信。使用蜂窝/寻呼机网络380的消息传送服务的一个例子是短消息服务(SMS)系统,其从移动设备传递短文本消息或把短文本消息传递到移动设备的,如移动电话和寻呼机。根据本发明,蜂窝/寻呼机网络380传送去往和来自移动设备320-322的用户化的SMS消息364。用户化的SMS消息364由IM/SMS转换应用程序362创建并处理。
网关390在蜂窝/寻呼机网络380和WAN/LAN 370之间发送消息。例如,计算机用户可向寻呼机发送电子邮件。网关390提供了从WAN/LAN 370向蜂窝/寻呼机网络380传送电子邮件的装置。相反地,持有连接到蜂窝网络设备的用户可以浏览Web。网关390允许在WAN/LAN370和蜂窝/寻呼机网络380之间传送超链接文本协议(HTTP)消息。
在本发明的一个典型实施例中,IM服务器350,IM/SMS服务器360,和个人电脑310-312被连接到WAN/LAN 370。移动设备320-322和IM/SMS服务器360被连接到蜂窝/寻呼机网络380。此外,移动设备可以被直接连接到WAN/LAN370,如移动设备322的连接所示。例如,移动设备322可具有一个可允许其直接插入到WAN/LAN370的网络接口。在其他实施例中(未显示),IM服务器350和个人电脑310-312可以连接到蜂窝/寻呼机网络380。
图4是一个图形表示,通常(generally)图解说明了适用于在本发明中使用的样本用户化SMS消息400的重要部分(salient portions)。总的看来,短消息服务(SMS)是允许在全球系统上发送和接收短文本/数据消息的服务,该全球系统用于移动通信(GSM)蜂窝网络。通常,有三种类型的SMS消息:GSM字符集-编码消息(有效地,7比特编码文本),UCS2-编码消息(统一的字符编码标准编码16-比特文本),和8-比特二进制编码消息。GSM字符集编码消息和UCS2-编码消息是按照原文的(textual),并在接收后通过消息传送应用程序显示给用户,然而8-比特二进制编码消息通常致力于提供设备特定的信息,如设备配置消息。
如图所示,样本用户化的SMS消息400包括用户数据头域402,源域404,目的地域406,链接域408和消息域410。用户数据头域402包括消息类型域412。根据本发明,消息类型域412存储了将SMS消息400识别为IM SMS消息的标识符。
图5是一个逻辑流程图,通常(generally)图解说明了用于在移动设备上启动即时消息传送的移动即时消息传送过程500的概述。过程500在方框502处开始,在方框502移动用户为即时消息传送服务注册别名。注册别名将别名与移动设备相关联。典型地,注册别名只执行一次。如上所述,即时消息传送服务在数据库中维护别名列表和他们相应的状态。对应于移动设备的别名的状态通常指示离线。这个离线状态向其他IM别名指出不可聊天的别名。但是,即时消息传送服务允许IM别名向显示离线的别名发送IM消息。
在方框504,接收到一个呼入的IM消息,该IM消息寻址到与移动设备关联的假名(即,收信者别名)。呼入的IM消息是从在一个第一计算设备上的其他个体产生的。其他个体也具有一个即时消息传送服务存储的别名。典型地,在两个个体之间,通过持久因特网连接在他们的个人电脑上交换IM消息。但是,持久因特网连接不是典型地与移动设备连接。在识别了与移动设备对应的收信者别名之后,处理继续进行到方框506。
在方框506,呼入的IM消息被转化为用户化的SMS消息。如上所述,SMS消息通过蜂窝网络发送到移动设备。典型地,SMS消息是短文本消息。根据本发明的用户化的SMS消息通过包括一个消息类型域,补充支持(leverage)现有的SMS技术。对于本发明的这个实施例来说,消息类型域将SMS消息作为一个IM消息类型进行识别,这指明SMS消息是从IM消息中产生的。处理继续进行到方框508。
在方框508,用户化的SMS消息被发送到移动设备。一般说来,移动设备典型地处于“休眠”状态,除非在一些如电话呼叫或使用Web浏览器的动作中被激活。即使移动设备处于“休眠”状态,移动设备可接受和接收SMS消息。因此,在方框510,移动设备接收用户化的SMS消息。
在方框512,移动设备确定用户化的SMS消息不是标准的SMS消息,而是与即时消息相关联。处理继续进行到方框514。
在方框514,基于用户化的SMS消息的类型,执行附加的处理。图6和7图解说明了在移动设备上启动即时消息传送的两个实施例并且在下文中描述了这两个实施例。然后完成处理。
图6是通常(generally)图解说明通过蜂窝网络,在移动设备和第一计算设备之间使用SMS建立伪聊天会话的IM/SMS过程的逻辑流程图。IM/SMS过程600是一个适用于在图5中的方框514中使用的附加处理的实施例。IM/SMS过程600在方框602开始,在那里移动设备已经识别了用户化的SMS消息的类型。对于下述实施例,用户化的SMS消息已被识别为即时消息类型。因此,IM客户应用程序在移动设备上被启动。在确定SMS消息类型后启动IM客户程序以便可以更有效地利用电池电源。
在方框604,IM客户程序解析用户化的SMS消息并恢复发送器信息。在阅读完完整的发明描述后就会清楚地明白,第一计算设备(即,发送器)不知道即时消息传送被一个移动用户执行。从发送器的角度来看,在两台使用持久因特网连接的个人电脑之间正在执行即时消息传送。
在方框606,用户化的SMS消息内容在移动用户的移动设备上被读取并显示。检查完内容之后,响应IM消息,移动用户可以输入信息。例如,移动用户可选择“回复”,并使用与移动设备相连的输入设备键入回复消息。移动设备在方框608接受输入。
在方框610,IM客户程序基于发送器信息和以上得到的输入创建回复的用户化的SMS消息。回复的用户化的SMS消息具有与移动设备接收到的用户化的SMS消息相似的格式。
在方框612,IM客户程序通过蜂窝网络把回复的用户化的SMS消息发送给发送器。回复的用户化的SMS消息识别发送器,并在消息类型域包括一个IM消息指示符。IM/SMS应用程序在方框614接收回复的用户化的SMS消息,并把回复用户化的SMS消息转换成回复的IM消息。在方框616,通过用于即时消息传送而与即时消息传送服务建立的因特网连接发送回复的IM消息给发送器。处理然后就完成了。第一计算设备和移动设备可使用在上述图5和6中描述的过程交换附加的即时消息。
图7是通常(generally)图解说明了在移动设备和第一个计算设备之间通过因特网连接建立聊天会话的IM过程的逻辑流程图。IM过程700是适合在图5的方框514中使用的附加处理的另一个实施例。IM过程700在方框702开始,在方框702移动设备已经识别了用户化的SMS消息类型。对于下述实施例,用户化的SMS消息已被识别为即时消息类型。因此,IM客户应用程序在移动设备上被启动。在确定了SMS消息类型之后启动IM客户程序以便可以更有效地利用电池电源。
在方框704,IM客户程序解析用户化的SMS消息并恢复发送器信息。在方框706,用户化的SMS消息的内容在移动用户的移动设备上被读取并显示。在检查内容后,移动用户可输入信息以响应IM消息。例如,移动用户可使用移动设备相连的输入设备选择“回复”,并且键入回复消息。移动设备在方框708接受此输入。
以上处理类似于上述在图6中的处理。但是,在方框710,替代基于发送器信息和输入创建回复的用户化的SMS消息,IM客户程序与发送器建立因特网连接。因特网连接可以通过无线LAN,全球移动系统(GSM),等等建立。因特网连接允许发送器的无缝连接。
在方框712,IM客户程序通过因特网连接与发送器建立聊天会话。发送器和移动设备可以通过聊天会话交换IM消息直到一个终端或其他终端结束聊天会话。一旦聊天会话终止,上述结合图5和7描述的处理需要在另外一次即时消息交换发生之前再次执行。处理然后就完成了。
即使上述讨论描述了通过因特网连接在移动设备和第一计算设备间建立聊天会话的IM过程,不超出本发明的范围,在两个移动设备之间也可发生聊天会话。在本实施例中,发送的移动设备通过因特网连接,并且以与计算设备相似的方式起作用。
上述的说明,实例和数据提供了本发明内容的制造和使用的完整描述。因为不偏离本发明的精神和范围,可以实现本发明的许多实施例,发明存在于在下文中附加的权利要求。
