Abstract: A method of phone messaging includes encoding a data packet into an audio stream, said data packet comprising a message addressed to a mobile device operating in a wireless network, placing a call to said mobile device using a voice channel of said wireless network, transmitting said audio stream over said voice channel to said mobile device, and reconstructing said data packet from said audio stream.

Abstract: A voice server can be located, temporarily allocated, and sent audio. The results are returned to a voice client, and the voice server is deallocated for use by the next person talking into their client browser. Voice channels and IVR ports are initially set up by a switch and the IVR using conventional audio protocols. The voice channels are not initially connected to the client. The switch handles the allocation and deallocation of IVR voice channels without having to communicate further with the IVR. A user indicates to the client device that he wishes to initiate a voice interaction during an X+V session. This translates to a request on the CTRL channel to synchronise XHTML and VXML forms as a trigger for the VXML browser to execute a conversational turn. A multiplexer intercepts this control command and establishes a virtual voice circuit between the client device and an existing open but unattached voice port. The virtual circuit is established without having to set up an RTP channel.

Abstract: Intelligent computer implemented agents are associated with computer user interface tasks by dividing the tasks into statistically distinct clusters based on sampled user assessments. The assessments collect data on multiple user variables. Multivariate statistical analysis is used to divide the tasks into distinct clusters. The clusters are validated using univariate analysis on each of the measured variables. Intelligent agents are associated based on the measured variables to ensure that agents are effective. The objective assessment and association avoids costly creation and overhead of agents applied where not effective.

Abstract: This invention is based on being able to locate a voice server, temporarily allocate it, send it the audio of you saying “When is flight 683 due to arrive?”, getting the results of what you said back in the browser, and deallocating the voice server for use by the next person talking into their browser. Voice channels and IVR ports are initially set up by a switch and the IVR using conventional audio protocols. The Voice channels are not initially connected to the client. The switch handles the allocation and deallocation of IVR voice channels without having to communication further with the IVR. A user indicates (usually by pressing a PTT button) to the client device that he wishes to initiate a voice interaction during an X+V session. This translates to a request on the CTRL channel to synchronise the XHTML and VXML forms which the embodiment uses as a trigger for the VXML browser to execute a conversational turn.

Abstract: A computer system which includes a central processing unit, a bus, and a memory store coupled to the central processing unit that includes a psuedo 3D rendering mechanism. Typically, the rendering mechanism is loaded in the memory store, but can be implemented in an application's specific integrated circuit further coupled to the central processing unit via the bus. The psuedo 3D rendering mechanism is used to generate a psuedo 3D rendered virtual image using only two dimensional prerendered selected views of 3D objects to be displayed. As the viewing orientation shifts from point to point, an adequate three-dimensional rendering is provided based on these selected views. These selected views are designed for display on a display device further connected to the computer system.
