Abstract

Administering participant attendance of teleconferences, including monitoring present call status of a user's telephone. In dependence upon one or more calendar events representing previously scheduled teleconferences, a teleconference administration device determines whether the present call status of the user's telephone conflicts with a previously scheduled teleconference. If the present call status of the user's telephone conflicts with a previously scheduled teleconference, the teleconference administration device notifies prospective participants of the conflict.
