  • Patent number: 7881661
    Abstract: A system and method for providing notification on remote devices are provided. In architecture, the system includes a computer device for performing the operation. The computer device includes a message send module that sends a message to the remote device using an IP link and a determination module that determines that the message sent by the IP link was not received by the remote device. Moreover, the computer device further includes a resend module that resends the message automatically using a SMS transmission process. A method for providing notification on remote devices is also provided. The method operates by (1) sending a message to the remote device using a IP link; (2) determining that the message sent by the IP link was not received by the remote device; and (3) resending the message automatically using a SMS transmission process.

  • Publication number: 20040044674
    Abstract: The present invention provides a system and method for parsing itinerary data on a computing device. In architecture, the system includes a data acquisition module that acquires itinerary data and a parsing module that parses the itinerary data into the a computer readable itinerary data. The system further includes a generation module that generates a predefined user form with the computer readable itinerary data. The present invention can also be viewed as a method for parsing itinerary data on a computing device. The method operates by (1) providing itinerary data; (2) parsing the itinerary data into a computer readable itinerary data; and (3) generating a predefined user form with the computer readable itinerary data.

  • Publication number: 20020194207
    Abstract: The present invention provides a system and method for providing remote device data synchronization. In architecture, the system includes a remote device with a device data, a server device containing an original data and a revision data of the original data, and a delta data that identifies only the changes between the original data and the revision data. The present invention can also be viewed as a method for transmitting data that is modified on a server to a remote device. The method operates by (1) providing an original data; (2) creating update data of the original data; and (3) generating a delta data that identifies only the changes between the original data and the updated data; and (4) transmitting the delta data to a remote device.

  • Patent number: 5890176
    Abstract: A single file holds multiple versions of a document composed of an interconnection of objects which themselves have versions and are stored in the file. When the document is changed by changing any of the interconnected objects, a check is first made to determine whether the object version is same as the document version currently being edited. If not, a copy of the object is made and saved. Any version of the document can be reconstructed by interconnecting object versions which have a highest level which is equal to, or less than, the desired document version. Therefore, only objects which are changed are duplicated and copies of objects are only made when an object changes. The interconnection of the objects to form structure of the document is maintained by an interconnection of object pointers. Each object has an associated demand loader object which includes a list of object versions for the associated object plus a pointer to one of the versions.

  • Patent number: 4301525
    Abstract: A system for providing input electrical signals, for processing the electrical signals to provide digital information, and for recording the processed electrical signals so that they may be retrieved from the system and the information recorded digitally visually presented by the system. The system is particularly well adapted for use with a multiple station dictation system in which the digital information embodied in the processed electrical signals includes the station from which a particular piece of dictation originated and the identification of the person who dictated it, the recorder upon which the dictation was recorded, information relating to the chronological order in which the dictation has been completed, and the length of the dictation. The system further provides means for recording this information on the tape at the end of each piece of dictation and for storing this information in a central storage.
