Auto promotion and demotion of conference calls

1. A method for managing conference calls in a communication system including a plurality of terminal devices, comprising:

establishing a first conference call between a host terminal device and one or more participant terminal devices;

receiving a request for adding a non-participant terminal device into the first conference call;

selecting a participant terminal device from the one or more participant terminal devices to host a second conference call;

establishing the second conference call hosted by the selected participant terminal device, wherein the second conference call includes the non-participant terminal device; and

chaining the first conference call and the second conference call through the selected participant terminal device.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising determining that a limit of participants of the first conference call has been reached.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the determining that the limit of participants of the first conference call has been reached further comprising:

determining whether a limit of resources of the host terminal device has been reached.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

querying at least one of the participant terminal devices for determining that a limit of resources of the selected participant device has not been reached.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the request for adding the non-participant device to the first conference call is sent by one of the host terminal device, the non-participant terminal device, or any one of the participant terminal devices.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

sending a message to the selected participant terminal device for establishing the second conference call.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein establishing the second conference call after the non-participant terminal device has been dialed from one of the host terminal device, a server, or any one of the participant terminal devices.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the server includes at least a private branch exchange server and a session management platform server, and wherein the determining that the limit of participants of the first conference call has been reached further comprising:

determining whether a limit of resources of at least one of the private branch exchange server or the session management platform server has been reached.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the host terminal device is included in a first network, the non-participant terminal device is included in a second network, and the first network and the second network communicate with each other through one or more connections.

10. A computer readable medium comprising computer-readable instructions, which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform a method for managing conference calls, the method comprising:

establishing a first conference call between a host terminal device and one or more participant terminal devices;

receiving a request for adding a non-participant terminal device into the first conference call;

selecting a participant terminal device from the one or more participant terminal devices to host a second conference call;

establishing the second conference call hosted by the selected participant terminal device, the second conference call including the non-participant terminal device; and

chaining the first conference call and the second conference call through the selected participant terminal device.

11. The computer readable medium of claim 10 , further comprising computer-readable instructions, which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform:

determining that a limit of participants of the first conference call has been reached.

12. The computer readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the determining that the limit of participants of the first conference call has been reached further comprising:

determining whether a limit of resources of the host terminal device has been reached.

13. The computer readable medium of claim 10 , further comprising computer-readable instructions, which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform:

querying at least one of the participant terminal devices for determining that a limit of resources of the selected participant terminal device has not been reached.

14. The computer readable medium of claim 10 , wherein the request for adding the non-participant device to the first conference call is sent by one of the host terminal device, the non-participant terminal device, or any one of the participant terminal devices.

15. The computer readable medium of claim 10 , further comprising computer-readable instructions, which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform:

sending a message to the selected participant terminal device for establishing the second conference call.

16. The computer readable medium of claim 10 , further comprising computer-readable instructions, which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform:

establishing the second conference call after the non-participant terminal device has been dialed from one of the host terminal device, a server, or any one of the participant terminal devices.

17. The computer readable medium of claim 16 , wherein the server includes at least a private branch exchange server and a session management platform server.

18. The computer readable medium of claim 17 , wherein the determining that the limit of participants of the first conference call has been reached further comprising:

determining whether a limit of resources of at least one of the private branch exchange server or the session management platform server has been reached.

19. The computer readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the host terminal device is included in a first network, the non-participant terminal device is included in a second network, and the first network and the second network communicate with each other through one or more connections.

20. A system for managing conference calls between a plurality of terminal devices including a host terminal device configured to host a first conference call and one or more participant terminal devices configured to participate in the first conference call, the system comprising:

a server configured to receive a request for adding a non-participant terminal device to the first conference call, select a participant terminal device from the one or more participant terminal devices to host a second conference call, establish the second conference call hosted by the selected participant terminal device to include the non-participant terminal device, and chain the first conference call and the second conference call through the selected participant terminal device.
