Abstract

An exemplary method is implemented in a communication system in which periodically updated data for respective end-users is stored in a notification profile at a communication infrastructure node. The updated data is based on conditions associated with each end-user's communication device and its network context, where the data is not presence status. Predetermined rules are stored at the communication infrastructure node and generate respective results based on factors such as network contextual data and corresponding values contained in the notification profile data for each end-user. An event is detected by the communication infrastructure node where the event is intended to cause communication with all the communication devices that are interested in that event. The communication infrastructure node determines an action to be taken in response to the event based on the results of the rules for data associated with the first end-user. The communication infrastructure node implements the action related to the first end-user.
