Patent number: 9590941Abstract: A sender of a message may be alerted that the message he is sending contains content that may be culturally sensitive to the recipient of the message. The message specifying a sender and a recipient may be received, and potentially sensitive content within the message may be identified. Biometric data may then be received and a recipient profile with cultural attributes about the recipient of the message can be accessed. The potentially sensitive content can then be analyzed using natural language processing, and sensitive content within the message can be identified. The sender can then be notified that the message contains sensitive content.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2015Date of Patent: March 7, 2017Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Takaharu Itoh, Tatsuya Sobue, Riko Sato, Hikaru Tamura

Patent number: 9015678Abstract: A storage medium containing computer code, which when executed by a computer causes the computer to perform the steps of creating a second file of messages to be outputted by the software from a first file of messages, the messages in the first file being written in a first language and executing the software using the second file. The creating of the second file includes for each message in the first file, applying specified rules to form a second message by changing the character length of the second message, filling in any blank characters in the second message with a dummy character, inserting characters from the target language into prescribed places in the second message to form a second message having both characters of the first language and characters of the target language, and copying the second message into the second file.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2013Date of Patent: April 21, 2015Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Nozomu Aoyama, Toshimichi Arima, Takaharu Itoh, Ito Yuko

Patent number: 8656357Abstract: An efficient testing method is provided for internationalized software executed in a plurality of language environments. The method includes mock-translating an externalized resource file written in a first language of the internationalized software by converting characters of the first language to characters of a second language based on a conversion table; and displaying output information from the internationalized software that performs processing by referring to the mock-translated test resource file using one of a plurality of fonts prepared for respective test categories.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2007Date of Patent: February 18, 2014Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Nozomu Aoyama, Toshimichi Arima, Takaharu Itoh, Yuko Ito

Patent number: 6677795Abstract: A flip-flop circuit (100) that may have a reduced delay time between an edge of a clock input signal and a data output signal has been disclosed. A data signal may be received at a data input terminal (1), a clock input signal may be received at a clock signal input terminal (2), and data may be provided at a data output terminal (3). Data may be transferred from a master latch to a slave latch through a transfer circuit in response to an edge of a clock input signal. A transfer circuit may include a transfer device (6) which may have a control terminal connected to a clock signal input terminal (2) and a transfer device (5) which may have a control terminal connected to a buffered clock signal (C). In this way, delay time may be reduced while maintaining high-speed operations even if an input clock signal has a rounded or distorted waveform.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2002Date of Patent: January 13, 2004Assignee: NEC Electronics CorporationInventor: Takaharu Itoh
