  • Patent number: 9110888
    Abstract: A service server apparatus is provided which can realize a service as if a speaker has a conversation in a face-to-face manner using existing applications. The service server apparatus includes a service activating unit receiving an instruction for performing a task during a communication, a telephone/call control unit recording a call speech of the speaker during the communication between speech communication terminal devices, a speech recognizing enabler, a text translating enabler, and a speech synthesizing enabler performing the task based on the recorded call speech when the instruction is received, and a communication control enabler providing task data obtained through an performance of the task to the speech communication terminal device. The task data is text data obtained by converting the call speech into a text, translated text data obtained by translating the text data into another language, and speech data obtained by converting the translated text data into a speech.

  • Patent number: 7849191
    Abstract: A download system capable of appropriately spreading loads on a server and on a transmission path, and further enhancing convenience in download of data. A reservation candidate acquirer of a communication terminal acquires from a software managing server reservation candidate information containing time information about time zones as candidates to which a reservation for download of an update file can be allocated. At the communication terminal a user selects a reserved time zone from the time zones corresponding to the time information included in the reservation candidate information, and the software managing server registers the reservation in the reserved time zone. Thereby, the reserved time zone can be selected from the candidate time zones transmitted by the software managing server and the candidate time zones are determined based on a reservation table set so as to spread loads on the software managing server and on the transmission path.

  • Publication number: 20050278411
    Abstract: A data delivery device includes a receiving section, a retrieval section and a transmitting section. The receiving section receives a download request from a requesting mobile device which requests data to be downloaded. The retrieval section retrieves existence of surrounding mobile devices existing within a predetermined region from the requesting mobile device with using management information including positions of the surrounding mobile devices, when the receiving section receives the download request. The transmitting section transmits setting information to the requesting mobile device in order to enable the requesting mobile device to receive the data from an arbitrary one of the surrounding mobile devices.
