Abstract: A statistical language model may be used to simulate one or more users of a conversation. The statistical language model may be used to train a user to participate in a particular types of conversation by simulating communications by another type of user in the conversation. The communications may be simulated by selecting a simulation context from available simulation contexts and the simulation context may correspond to a difficulty level. Upon receiving a communication from a user, a responsive simulated communication may be generated by processing the received communication and the simulation context with the statistical language model. Upon completion of the simulation, another simulation context may be selected for the next simulation.

Abstract: Software for a computer system may be automatically generated to reduce costs. Software may be automatically generated using a set of software components where each component may have one or more input properties and one or more output properties. A property may correspond to a type of data (e.g., a customer ID) used by the computer system. A graph may be created from the components where the graph includes component nodes for the components and property nodes for the input and output properties. To automatically generate software for a task, a task specification may be received that includes a task input property and a task output property. A path on the graph may be determined from the task input property and the task output property, and software for accomplishing the task may be generated using components on the path. The software may then be executed or stored for later execution.
