Methods and apparatuses for providing notification data, e.g. in a presence service, referring to a plurality of presentities (B B B) to a plurality of watchers (A, A A) in a communication network. A first notification service manager () operating for a notification server () buffers (3:3) multiple watcher specific notifications and sends (3:5) a single joint notification containing the buffered notifications to a second notification service manager () e.g. operating for an RLS entity (). The second notification service manager () then splits (3:6) the joint notification into the original multiple watcher specific notifications, and sends (3:7) them individually towards respective watchers. Thereby, transmission of numerous individual notifications from one or more notification servers to, e.g. one or more RLS entities can be avoided. 1300400300400123123a,a. A method in a first notification service manager () operating for at least one notification server ( , ) , of providing notification data referring to a plurality of presentities (B , B , B) and directed to a plurality of watchers (A , A , A) in a communication network , the method comprising:{'b': '502', 'receiving () published notification data of the presentities,'}{'b': '504', 'buffering () multiple individual watcher specific notifications with the received notification data,'}{'b': '508', 'creating () a joint notification for the watchers from the buffered watcher specific notifications, and'}{'b': '510', 'sending () the joint notification towards said watchers.'}2.

A self-forming VoIP connection capability is described that may be superimposed over wired networks, wireless networks, or combinations thereof. As described herein, a local network cluster forms while isolated from a conventional SIP server, or alternately may exist as a cluster of network nodes and clients that later becomes isolated from a conventional SIP server by a break in the network. Either way, each network node thus enabled with distributed SIP registry functionality according to this invention independently constructs a local SIP registry and SIP server capability within that node. Subsequently, while isolated from a conventional SIP server, VoIP conversations among client devices connected to nodes within an isolated cluster will continue, and nodes and clients may join or leave an isolated cluster with conversations able to be initiated or continued while a node has network connectivity to the cluster. 1. A VoIP-capable network comprising:one or more VoIP client devices;two or more VoIP nodes forming an isolated cluster wherein the two or more VoIP nodes in the isolated cluster are in communication with one another;wherein each of the VoIP client devices communicates with at least one VoIP node;wherein each of the VoIP nodes further comprises a local SIP registry built by exchanging SIP information with the remaining VoIP nodes in the isolated cluster; andwherein a first VoIP client device in communication with a first VoIP node establishes a communication with a second VoIP device in communication with a second VoIP node using the local SIP registries of the first VoIP node and the second VoIP node; and wherein said client device communications is maintained regardless of network connectivity status.2. The VoIP-capable network of claim 1 , wherein the local SIP registries of the isolated VoIP nodes are updated as the VoIP nodes and the VoIP client devices begin communication with the isolated cluster and end communication with the isolated cluster.3. ...

A document processing system includes a wireless data beacon associated with an MFP, which beacon broadcasts beacon identification data. A network interface receives user identification data from a portable data device corresponding to the beacon identification data, and the device sends output job queue status data to the portable data device in accordance with an address associated with the user identification data. In a complementary action, a BLUETOOTH interface of a portable data device receives a device identifier from an associated BLUETOOTH low energy beacon. The device communicates user identification data via a network interface to the MFP. The portable data device then receives status data from the document processing device and the status data is displayed on a device display. 1.
