  • Patent number: 12368802
    Abstract: A system and method for outbound call campaign management model in a contact center using a generative artificial intelligence which processes prompts such as “Schedule a follow-up call with client X,” understanding intent and context. Leveraging pre-trained language understanding, it interfaces with campaign components, scheduling calls or updating client information. The model dynamically adapts to varying scenarios, enhancing efficiency and personalization. The system employs secure interfaces, integrates with contact center tools, and undergoes continuous improvement through periodic retraining, ensuring optimal performance and compliance with evolving campaign requirements. Overall, it streamlines outbound call operations, automating actions and facilitating smoother interactions for a more productive and customer-centric contact center environment.

  • Patent number: 12335142
    Abstract: A network interface controller can be programmed to direct write received data to a memory buffer via either a host-to-device fabric or an accelerator fabric. For packets received that are to be written to a memory buffer associated with an accelerator device, the network interface controller can determine an address translation of a destination memory address of the received packet and determine whether to use a secondary head. If a translated address is available and a secondary head is to be used, a direct memory access (DMA) engine is used to copy a portion of the received packet via the accelerator fabric to a destination memory buffer associated with the address translation. Accordingly, copying a portion of the received packet through the host-to-device fabric and to a destination memory can be avoided and utilization of the host-to-device fabric can be reduced for accelerator bound traffic.

  • Patent number: 12164444
    Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms for an input-output memory management module (IOMMU) to indicate to software whether a page request by an endpoint device is to be serviced. In an embodiment, the IOMMU receives from the endpoint device a response to an invalidation wait message. Based on the response, the IOMMU provides first information which indicates to software that page requests have been flushed from the endpoint device. Page request message from the endpoint device are compatible with an interface standard which also comprises a stop marker message type. The first information is provided independent of the endpoint device providing any message which is of the stop marker message type. In another embodiment, the first information includes a drain marker generated by the IOMMU, or a snapshot of an address corresponding to an end of a page request queue.

  • Patent number: 12126769
    Abstract: A system and method for call transcription and summarization using generative artificial intelligence. The system combines Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) technology to transcribe customer-call center agent conversations and a Generative AI (GAI) model for summarization. It starts by processing the audio conversation, converting spoken words into text using ASR. Then, the GAI model is employed to generate a coherent, concise summary of the transcribed conversation. The GAI model understands context, key points, and intent, allowing it to create summaries that capture essential information. It can handle diverse conversations, adapt to different languages, and handle various accents and speech patterns. The resulting summaries help call center agents review and respond to customer inquiries more efficiently, enhancing customer service quality and decision-making.

  • Publication number: 20240152833
    Abstract: A system and method that provides predictions about the propensity of customers to answer a communication, pay an outstanding bill, and remain a customer. Furthermore, the system and method use propensity predictions to optimize the order of tasks that are carried out by integrated business systems. During a specific time-block, an optimization may reconfigure an auto-dialer to contact only the most likely customers who are both willing to pay and who are most likely to answer, as one example. Another example may be the reordering of tasks provided to a call agent's computing device.
