  • Patent number: 8838614
    Abstract: A method of operating a computerized document search system where information is matched against a database containing documents in response to user queries includes receiving a query identifying a source document that has information content related to the documents within the database. Important words within the source document are detected automatically, where at least one of the important words has been processed using at least two dictionary functions consisting of Derived Words, Acronym, Word Capitalization, and Hyphenation. An importance value is generated for important words in a processed document using a WordRatio and at least one of a selected set of values. A score is generated for a processed document based partly on the importance value of at least one important word in that document. A document list is created for identifying documents that are related to a source document.

  • Publication number: 20020065935
    Abstract: The invention is a scalable modular network system, without a fixed size enclosure, that may include many kinds of voice and data components. In operation, the invention provides trans-coding transparency allowing effective communications between dissimilar data/voice data streams. The modular system includes unique power control and distribution methods. The invention also provides the methods to simplify network-provisioning tasks because of the method of intelligently determining network information. The placement of the invention is not required to be in a central wiring location because the gateway system automatic adapts to having its components in distributed physical locations.
