  • Publication number: 20240076732
    Abstract: Provided herein are methods and composition for immune repertoire sequencing and single cell barcoding. The methods and compositions can be used to pair any two sequences originating from a single cell, such as heavy and light chain antibody sequences, alpha and beta chain T-cell receptor sequences, or gamma and delta chain T-cell receptor sequences, for antibody and T-cell receptor discovery, disease and immune diagnostics, and low error sequencing.

  • Patent number: 10560577
    Abstract: System and method to provide customer feedback in a telephone call between a customer and a contact center, the method comprising: monitoring an audio media stream from the customer in the telephone call, detecting a dual tone multi frequency (DTMF) feedback code within the monitored media stream, and assigning a feedback rating from the detected feedback code.

  • Patent number: 10306069
    Abstract: A method for reducing backlog at a call center comprises receiving a request for an agent of a contact center from a device associated with a contact and determining a context for the request. Based on the context, the request may be published while restricting agents from servicing the request, and the duration of time that the request is published is monitored. If an interrupt that indicates that an opt-in user would like to handle the published request is received, then a device associated with the opt-in user is communicably coupled to the device associated with the contact. However, after the request is published for a publish time and an interrupt from a device associated with an opt-in user is not received the request is removed from being published and agents of the contact center are allowed to service the request.

  • Patent number: 9948783
    Abstract: A method for reducing backlog at a call center comprises receiving a request for an agent of a contact center from a device associated with a contact and determining a context for the request. Based on the context, the request may be published to a portal service while restricting agents from servicing the request, and the duration of time that the request is published is monitored. If an interrupt that indicates that an opt-in user would like to handle the published request is received, then a device associated with the opt-in user is communicably coupled to the device associated with the contact. However, if the time that the request is published surpasses a threshold and an interrupt is not received then the request is removed from being published to the portal service and agents of the contact center are allowed to service the request.

  • Patent number: 9705926
    Abstract: Media files are often tagged, such as by XML or other tagging paradigms, in order to indicate aspects of certain portions of the media file. Disclosed herein, security policy tagging is provided that supports a logically nested or hierarchical structure. Tags may be time- and/or event-altered, such as when a user who is denied access at one point in time may be granted access at a later point in time. The need to amend the security policy based upon the passage of time is reduced or eliminated as portions, or sub-portions, of a media file that may be selectively tagged with security tags may be presented or downloaded based upon the security policy. The a security policy may incorporate rules that change permissions upon the passage of time or the occurrence of an event, without requiring the modification of the presentation, the security tags of the presentation portion, or the security tag associated with a parent portion of the presentation or the presentation itself.

  • Publication number: 20170109351
    Abstract: Tagging media streams allows topics and other items of interest to be readily identified. As provided herein, stateful tags are provided, which comprise a value determined from a link to another data source, such as a calendar, inventory, accounting, project management, or other application. Media streams, such as audio/video confines, may be tagged with stateful tags to identify items of interest and comprise a value that is dynamically determined. Subsequent playback of the media streams allows the stateful tags to be presented as comprising a then-current or other value, which may have changed since the time of the media stream's creation.

    Abstract: A computing system to manage one or more communication sessions is disclosed. The computing system includes an input module to receive at least one subscription request from at least one resource, wherein the at least one subscription request comprises a subscription criteria. The system further includes a monitoring module to monitor the one or more communication sessions to generate one or more data metrics based on the subscription criteria. The system further includes a report generation module to analyze the one or more generated data metrics to generate one or more subscription reports. The system further includes a notification module to generate one or more notifications based on the one or more generated subscription reports.
