  • Publication number: 20100122164
    Abstract: The invention concerns user entry of information into a system with an input device. A scheme is provided in which an entire word that a user wants to enter is predicted after the user enters a specific symbol, such as a space character. If the user presses an ambiguous key thereafter, rather than accept the prediction, the selection list is reordered. For example, a user enters the phrase “Lets run to school. Better yet, lets drive to “.””” After the user presses the space, after first entering the second occurrence of the word “to,” the system predicts that the user is going to enter the word “school” based on the context in which the user has entered that word in the past. Should the user enter an ambiguous key after the space, then a word list which contains the word “school” is reordered and other options are made available to the user.

  • Patent number: 6865384
    Abstract: In accordance with the preferred embodiments of the present invention, a method and a communication network for routing a real-time communication message based on a subscriber profile in a communication system. The communication system provides real-time communication service to a plurality of subscribers such that a first subscriber is in communication with a second subscriber. The communication network (110) receives a real-time communication message from the first subscriber. The communication network (110) also retrieves a subscriber profile associated with the second subscriber. In particular, the subscriber profile includes operating information associated with a wireless device (220 and/or 230) operated by the second subscriber. Based on the subscriber profile, the communication network (110) arranges the message for transmission to the second subscriber. Accordingly, the communication network (110) transmits the arranged message to the second subscriber.
