Abstract: Apparatus and method for unified web-search, selective broadcasting, natural language processing utilities, analysis, synthesis, and other applications for text data, image data, audio data, video data, data referenced by Universal Resource Identifier, or a combination thereof, initiated by just one required submit interaction from users with a central controller including at least one CPU and a memory operatively connected to the CPU, at least one terminal, adapted for communicating with the central controller, for transmitting to the central controller input information including text data, image data, audio data, video data, data referenced by Universal Resource Identifier, or a combination thereof, special characters to command at least another natural language processing or other utility requests in addition to web or other search,

Abstract: A wireless communications system and methods having at least two interconnected mobile switching centers (12, 14), each coupled to a corresponding media gateway (74, 76) and to an IP network (40) reduces the use of circuit connections (32) during inter-MSCs handover. Speech packets (84) are transmitted between a first MSC (12) and a second MSC (14) over an IP network (40) rather than over the circuit connections (32). An IP address (80) is used as a transaction identifier which can include the IP address, socket, and/or session number associated with the media gateway 74 for a call. The anchor MSC (12) sends the IP network address (80) that is currently being used for the call to the non-anchor MSC (14).
