Abstract
When an application originates a call to a certain communication node, an application manager refers to history of outgoing/incoming call data and/or telephone directory data to determine whether the call origination processing should be granted. If the telephone number of the communication node for which call organization is to be performed is included in the history of outgoing/incoming calls and/or the telephone directory data, then the call origination processing may be granted because the number may be considered a number with which communication was made in the past or may be recognized as a valid number to communicate with.
