ABSTRACT:
A number of personal conferencing systems, each executing a personal conferencing application, are networked together in a peer-to-peer manner. Each personal conferencing application is provided with a multi-point control logic for contributing to the shared control of audio as well as video distribution among the conference participants. In one embodiment, the multi-point control logic of the various personal conferencing applications collectively enable audio and video to be distributed in a manner that dynamically takes into account the dialogue being engaged among the conference participants, e.g. the order in which the conference participants speak to each other.
