Patent number: 7412260Abstract: A method and system for routing call failures in a location-based services system. A remote terminal is connected to a location-based services system and is used to generate a voice-based tailored request for information. The voice-based tailored request for information is interpreted with a voice recognition application and a natural language processing application. If the voice recognition application or the natural language processing application fail to determine the meaning of the tailored request for information to a predetermined level of accuracy then the remote terminal is routed to a call center.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2002Date of Patent: August 12, 2008Assignee: Accenture LLPInventors: Michael L.

Patent number: 7254384Abstract: A system and method for providing multi-modal messaging for a wireless communication system. A wireless terminal is connected to a wireless access network, wherein the wireless terminal is capable of generating a voice request. A multi-modal message server is connected to the wireless access network for receiving the voice request generated by a user of the remote terminal. A voice recognition application is operable to identify words contained in the voice request. A response generation application uses the identified words to generate a response to the voice request. A unified messaging application is operable to interpret the response and generate a first and second response that is based on the contents of the response generated by the response generation application. The first and second responses are then transmitted to the wireless terminal in different communication formats.Type: GrantFiled: October 3, 2002Date of Patent: August 7, 2007Assignee: Accenture Global Services GmbHInventors: Michael L. Gailey, Eric A Portman, Michael J. Burgiss

A multi-modal response is generated in response to a request for information with a multi-modal callback server. The multi-modal response is transmitted to the wireless terminal using the access network. A text-based response is included in the multi-modal response that includes a means for allowing a predetermined portion of the multi-modal response to be read aloud to the user of the wireless terminal or another message may be read aloud to the user.Type: GrantFiled: October 3, 2002Date of Patent: June 19, 2007Assignee: Accenture Global Services GmbHInventors: Michael L.
