  • Publication number: 20080021697
    Abstract: A system and method of providing a location-based translation service is disclosed. A wireless device receives from a wireless network an updated priority target language list according to the location of the wireless device. The wireless device and/or wireless network are capable of automatic speech recognition (ASR), text-to-speech (TTS) services and language translation services. A language and location database module associates probable target languages in a given area. The wireless network node receives the location of the wireless device through a network-based location means or through a GPS system and compares the location of the wireless device to the language and location database. The wireless network transmits to the wireless device an updated priority language list based on the data in the language and location database such that the wireless device pre-selects the most likely target language if the user launches the language translation application.

  • Publication number: 20070136579
    Abstract: A Web browsing system using a browser operating system (BOS), which provides a trusted software layer on which Web browsers execute. The BOS runs the client-side component of each Web application (e.g., on-line banking, and Web mail) in its own virtual machine, which provides strong isolation between Web services and the user's local resources. Web publishers can thus limit the scope of their Web applications by specifying the URLs and other resources that their browsers are allowed to access, which limits the harm that can be caused by a compromised browser. Web applications are treated as first-class objects that users explicitly install and manage, giving them explicit knowledge about and control over downloaded content and code. An initial embodiment implemented using Linux and the Xen virtual machine monitor has been shown to prevent or contain about 87% of the vulnerabilities that have been identified in a conventional web browser environment.

  • Publication number: 20060245579
    Abstract: A method and system for managing requests in a hold queue and the responses thereto are described. By providing a management system for handling requests in a call queue, a requesting party may be free to perform other tasks while waiting for a response. In addition, the management system may modify request priority independently of a party receiving the request. The method and system may further facilitate the entry of request related information by implementing an information database. The flexibility of a receiving party in responding to a request may also be enhanced through a greater selection of response options. The management system and method may further provide automatic backup and secondary options if a receiving party's first option is unfeasible.

  • Publication number: 20060136375
    Abstract: A system and method for providing a natural language interface to a database or the Internet. The method provides a response from a database to a natural language query. The method comprises receiving a user query, extracting key data from the user query, submitting the extracted key data to a data base search engine to retrieve a top n pages from the data base, processing of the top n pages through a natural language dialog engine and providing a response based on processing the top n pages.

  • Publication number: 20060096745
    Abstract: A heat exchanger transfers heat between primary and secondary fluid coolants. A housing has a longitudinal central axis lying within a transverse housing plane. A bottom wall with a concave inner surface faces upward and extends along the central axis. A plurality of arcuately helical lower sector fins are spaced apart along the central axis on the bottom wall inner surface. A cover has a longitudinal central axis lying within a transverse cover plane. A top wall with a concave inner surface faces downward and extends along the central axis. A plurality of arcuately helical upper sector fins are spaced apart along the central axis on the top wall inner surface. A copper tube is assembled into the housing in a direction transverse to the housing axis with the tube closely adjacent the lower sector fins. First and second sealing means seal the tube ends to the housing. The cover is assembled into the housing in a direction transverse to the housing axis with the upper sector fins closely adjacent the tube.

  • Publication number: 20050187759
    Abstract: A system, computer-readable medium and generated signal are disclosed for extending the bandwidth of a first signal (i.e., a narrowband signal) such as a speech signal. The system produces a second signal from a first signal by computing first area coefficients from a first signal, generating second area coefficients from the first area coefficients and generating a second signal using the second area coefficients. The first signal may be a narrowband signal and second signal may be a wideband signal. The first area coefficients may be narrowband coefficients and the second area coefficients may be wideband area coefficients.

  • Publication number: 20050143987
    Abstract: A feature extraction process for use in a wireless communication system provides automatic speech recognition based on both spectral envelope and voicing information. The shape of the spectral envelope is used to determine the LSPs of the incoming bitstream and the adaptive gain coefficients and fixed gain coefficients are used to generate the “voiced” and “unvoiced” feature parameter information.
