Abstract: A method includes obtaining, at a first conference endpoint device, spoken command data representing a spoken command detected by the first conference endpoint device during a teleconference between the first conference endpoint device and a second conference endpoint device. The method further includes generating modified spoken command data by inserting a spoken phrase into the spoken command. The method further includes transmitting the modified spoken command data to a natural language service.

Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting misuse of devices comprising: receiving, from a device, a message comprising a first hash of device data that is indicative of a current device location and usage; generating a second hash of stored data, the stored data being based on an expected location and usage associated with the device; comparing the first and second hashes; and when the first and second hashes do not match, generating an alert.

Abstract: A method for accommodating communication between a personal communication device and a satellite communication system includes identifying likely positions of one or more satellites and determining an orientation position of the personal communication device to potentially facilitate a wireless communication connection between the personal communication device and at least one satellite. The orientation position may be provided at a graphical user interface of the personal communication device. A signal received from the satellite may be detected and a determination may be made whether the satellite is capable of establishing the wireless communication connection between the personal communication device and the satellite.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, devices, apparatus, media, design structures, and other implementations, including a method that includes receiving, at a local device from a remote device, query data representative of a question relating to source content of a source document, and determining whether one or more pre-determined questions stored in a question-answer cache maintained at the local device matches the query data according to one or more matching criteria. The method further includes obtaining from the question-answer cache, in response to a determination that at least one of the pre-determined questions matches the query data received from the remote device, at least one answer data item, associated with at least one pre-determined question, corresponding to an answer to the question relating to the source content.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, devices, apparatus, media, design structures, and other implementations, including a method that includes receiving, at a local device from a remote device, query data representative of a question relating to source content of a source document of a repository of a plurality of source documents, with the source content being associated with transformed content accessible from the local device. The method further includes generating, in response to determination, at the local device, of a match between the query data and at least one portion of the transformed content, output data comprising one or more of a pointer to access, in the source document accessible from the remote device, at least one portion of the source document corresponding to the at least one portion of the transformed content, or a copy of the at least one portion of the source document.

Abstract: Disclosed are implementations that include a method including obtaining at a local device, a question-and-answer data item representative of a question-and-answer pair relating to source content of a source document, with the question-and-answer data item being associated with question-and-answer history information representative of historical information and access information for the question-and-answer data item, and determining based on the question-and-answer history information whether to perform data refinement operations on the question-and-answer data item.

Abstract: The methods and systems of the present disclosure can include a first collaboration space; a second collaboration space; and a third collaboration space; where the third collaboration space is created after the first collaboration space and the second collaboration space, where a first property from the first collaboration space and a second property from the second collaboration space is aggregated into the third collaboration space; and where existence of the third collaboration space is conditioned upon existence of at least one of the first collaboration space and the second collaboration space.

Abstract: Techniques for communicating with a user on a network include receiving acceleration data that indicates acceleration of a mobile network node associated with a user of a network. A communication state for the user is determined based at least in part on the acceleration data. The communication state indicates a type of network communication suitable for communicating with the user. Network communications with the user are based on the communication state. Among other uses, such techniques allow a network communicating with a human through a mobile node carried by the human to infer from stopped or unusual motions when the human's ability to receive or act on communications is impaired or otherwise affected.
