inCall: a contextualized telephony system. This project plans to create
 a telephony system that makes use of context information about incoming
 calls, such as caller location and his or her recent activities. It
 therefore comprises both a system for gathering user context information,
 and an IP telephony application enhanced to make use of this information.


People involved in this project:

 Edison Thomaz: the graduate student working on this for his thesis. He's
  involved with pretty much every aspect of the project, from design to
  implementation to documentation to evaluation.

 Dan Ports & Shuang You: UROPs. Currently we're working on implementing
  the inCall Telephony Core, the telephony application part of this system.
  It will allow the exchange of context information (gathered by the other
  parts of the project) as well as audio streams, and perhaps other types
  of media as well.

 Kwan Lee: did some related work as part of his master's thesis last year,
  Impromptu, a system based on streaming audio. We're basing part of our
  work on some code from Impromptu.
