AmbiTalk: Enhancing Wireless Communication Services through the Automatic Adaptation of Mobile Communication

AmbiTalk is a ubiquitous system based on the session initiation protocol (SIP) and Bluetooth that allows a mobile device to automatically adapt the behavior of its communication services as its user moves from one location to another. The adaptation is policy-based and occurs both pre-call and mid-call. We present the AmbiTalk architecture and discuss how it allows a device to automatically adapt its communication properties to its current environment and other devices. We demonstrate the viability of the AmbiTalk approach with the implementation of a prototype
