Abstract: According to one embodiment, a method, computer system, and computer program product for customizing the rendering of a synthesized speech prompt is provided. The present invention may include extracting prosodic information from a received audio recording of a prompt by parsing the text corresponding with the prompt and generating phonetic units, aligning the phonetic units with the audio recording, and calculating, based on the alignment, prosodic values for the phonetic units. The invention may further include adapting the prosodic values to match a text-to-speech voice in use, and then synthesizing speech for the prompt based upon the adapted prosodic information.

Abstract: At least one set of enforceable policy provisions is identified within at least one defined service level policy to be enforced during runtime by a policy enforcement point (PEP). Each set of enforceable policy provisions includes a policy subject, a reference to a policy domain, and at least one assertion. Each identified set of enforceable policy provisions is transformed by the PEP into at least one runtime-executable processing rule that each includes at least one PEP processing action that each represents an atomic unit of policy enforcement level behavior executable by the PEP to enforce the respective at least one assertion against runtime objects associated with the policy subject within an area of runtime policy enforcement specified by the policy domain.

Abstract: Source policy identification information of a registry service policy is correlated with configured policy enforcement processing rules and processing actions using a source policy reference key. The source policy identification information includes at least a source policy identifier (ID) of the registry service policy. Per-transaction service policy enforcement information that documents policy enforcement activities performed by a policy enforcement point (PEP) is correlated with the source policy identification information using the source policy reference key. The correlated per-transaction service policy enforcement information of at least one transaction from the per-transaction service data table is provided in response to a query from a policy monitoring point (PMP).

Abstract: A peer policy object named with a policy enforcement metric context identifier is created at a first policy enforcement point (PEP) platform of a group of peered PEP platforms. The peer policy object uniquely identifies a registered service policy to be enforced during runtime as a shared runtime policy enforcement activity by the group of peered PEP platforms within a peered policy enforcement deployment. The peer policy object named with the policy enforcement metric context identifier is deployed to at least one other peered PEP platform within the peered policy enforcement deployment to initiate the shared runtime policy enforcement activity by the group of peered PEP platforms. At least one runtime policy enforcement metric associated with runtime enforcement of the registered service policy is shared with the at least one other peered PEP platform during runtime using the policy enforcement metric context identifier.

Abstract: Embodiments include method, systems and computer program products for an interactive, multi-level failsafe capability. In some embodiments, a failed count indicative of a number of failed attempts to launch an application may be received. A failsafe mode level corresponding to the failed count may be determined. The failsafe mode level may be initialized in response to determining the failsafe mode level corresponding to the failed count. The failsafe mode level may determine the functionality that may be enabled. Users may perform interactive debugging by editing configuration settings and manually enabling functionality.

Abstract: Source policy identification information of a registry service policy is captured. The source policy identification information includes a source policy identifier (ID), a source policy name, and a source policy uniform resource locator (URL). The captured source policy identification information is correlated with configured policy enforcement processing rules and processing actions using a source policy reference key. Per-transaction service policy enforcement information that documents policy enforcement activities performed by a policy enforcement point (PEP) is captured. The captured per-transaction service policy enforcement information is correlated with the captured source policy identification information using the source policy reference key.

Abstract: A method, system and apparatus for grouped radio controls. A grouped radio control can include a listing of elements, each element having a specified grouping. The grouped radio control also can include grouping logic programmed to insert elements into, delete elements from, and select elements within the listing. Finally, a grouped radio control can include a grouped radio control interface configured to accept interface events for processing in the grouping logic.

Abstract: Source policy identification information of a registry service policy is correlated with configured policy enforcement processing rules and processing actions using a source policy reference key. The source policy identification information includes at least a source policy identifier (ID) of the registry service policy. Per-transaction service policy enforcement information that documents policy enforcement activities performed by a policy enforcement point (PEP) is correlated with the source policy identification information using the source policy reference key. The correlated per-transaction service policy enforcement information of at least one transaction from the per-transaction service data table is provided in response to a query from a policy monitoring point (PMP).

Abstract: Text-to-speech synthesis performed by deriving from a voice dataset a sequence of speech frames corresponding to a text, wherein any of the speech frames is represented in the voice dataset by a parameterized vocal tract component, glottal pulse parameters, and an aspiration noise level, transforming the speech frames in the sequence by applying a voice transformation to any of the parameterized vocal tract component, glottal pulse parameters, and aspiration noise level representing the speech frames, wherein the voice transformation is applied in accordance with a virtual voice specification that includes at least one voice control parameter indicating a value for at least one of timbre, glottal tension and breathiness, and producing a digital audio signal of synthesized speech from the transformed sequence of speech frames.
