Systems and methods are described for multiple leg call processing, in
which the timing of a plurality of outgoing call legs is determined
according to a plurality of parameters in order to achieve near
simultaneous notification of a group of member directory numbers. The
parameters can include static information obtained from a network
database such as end user device technology type, call forwarding
disposition, answering machine or voicemail service, geographic distance
to the member directory number, and/or signaling type and carrier or
other local information. Actual setup times may be measured for use in
determining the timing of the outgoing call leg processing, which may be
used alone or in combination with the local and static information
parameters to determine the outgoing call schedule for routing the call
to multiple member directory numbers.
