Abstract: A technique for data entry at a device is provided. Initially, voice data is received at the device. The voice data and a device identifier are transmitted to a computer. At the computer, the voice data is translated to text. Next, it is determined whether to filter the translated text. When it is determined that the translated text is to be filtered, a filter is applied to the translated text.

Abstract: A method for performing an update transaction in a database system that includes sending to a remote database client an update request to update data in a database system, in which the update request comprises a first checksum value corresponding to a state of the data in the database system as of the time of the update request. The method further includes receiving a reply from the remote database client that includes a new value for the data in the database system and the first checksum value. The method further includes determining whether the first checksum value matches a second checksum value corresponding to the state of the data in the database system as of the time that the database system received the reply, and if the first checksum value matches the second checksum value, the data in the database system is updated with the new value for the data.

Abstract: A method and system for performing real-time database update transactions with disconnected database clients includes a disconnected client server (DCS) and disconnected client extensions (DCE). The DCS formats the database cell, its key, any associated database cells, and a timestamp and sends them to a disconnected database client by email. The timestamp indicates the last time the database cell or associated database cells was changed. The disconnected database client sends a reply email with the update of the database cell and the timestamp. Upon receipt of the reply email, the DCS compares the received timestamp to a current timestamp for the database cell. If they match, then the database cell is updated according to the received update. If they do not match, then the update is based on outdated information and is rejected. In this manner, reliable real-time update transactions are provided between a disconnected database client and the database.
