Abstract: In one example, a video conferencing method to align video conference participant windows is disclosed. The method determines a position of a camera that captures images of a video conference participant. The method determines which one of multiple participant windows is a speaker participant window and aligns the speaker participant window with the position of the camera. The method may capture user-input parameters of an area adjacent to the camera to position the speaker participant window.

Abstract: Systems and methods provide for personalizing interaction between a provider using a integrated knowledge management (KM) system that tracks data exchanged between users and the provider over multiple communication channels. User requests to a provider can made via multiple different incoming channels, such as by using ATMs, PDAs, cell phones, computers accessing web sites or other Web Devices, Voice Response Units (VRUs), and others. User requests submitted over these multiple channels are routed into an integrated KM system that services these requests and selects personalized offers and/or personalized content and/or personalized format presentation to be provided to the users.

Abstract: A system and method for quantifying the working capital benefit of pooling a number of separate cash accounts. The average (mean) cash balance of the pooled account is determined to be the sum of the means of each of the individual accounts. Similarly, the standard deviation of the pooled account is determined to be the square root of the sum of the squares of the standard deviations of the individual accounts. Accordingly, the minimum cash level of the pooled account is 2.3 times the square root of the sum of the squares of the standard deviations of the individual accounts. If pooling is to be beneficial, from a working capital perspective, the minimum cash required in the pooled account will be significantly less than the aggregate cash required by the separate companies.
