  • Patent number: 9069982
    Abstract: Described herein are systems and methods for managing electronic documents. In particular, embodiments of the present invention are focussed on managing ingestion of documents into an information system, such as ingestion of documents generated by a device having scanning functionality. Embodiments include devices, software (defined by computer executable code), carrier media, and methodologies. In overview, a document is received from an ingestion source, such as a Multi Function Device (MFD) having a scanner. For example, the document is a scanned into an electronic form from a paper form. This electronic form is subjected to additional processing thereby to implement a predefined security protocol prior to the document (or a modified version thereof) being released into an information system.

  • Patent number: 7130404
    Abstract: Producing a textual transcription of a communication conference call. A participant who is going to be absent from the conference can indicate to a conference bridge key words defining topics of interest, and the conference bridge will identify these topics based on the textual transcript that is being done in real time. When the participant returns to the conference call, they can then search the portion of an audio recording that they missed utilizing index marks defining the topics of interest that are based on the entered key words.
