Abstract: A method for selecting an application and associated operational guidance to utilize on a mobile device is disclosed. In one embodiment, such a method identifies a selected environment of interest. Within the selected environment, the method identifies one or more applications that are commonly utilized by users within the selected environment and documents the one or more applications. The method detects physical entry of a particular user into the selected environment and, in response to detecting the entry, automatically notifies the particular user of the one or more applications that are commonly utilized within the selected environment. In certain embodiments, the method enables the user to quickly launch the one or more applications and/or provides operational guidance to the user with regard to using the one or more applications. A corresponding system and computer program product are also disclosed.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for generating personalized audio data is disclosed. The computer-implemented method includes receiving user input data, wherein the user input data is at least one of text or audio. The computer-implemented method further includes segmenting the user input data into a set of sentences. The computer-implemented method further includes generating, for each sentence in the set of sentences, a voice image, wherein the voice image includes at least one pronunciation tag and wave line associated with a sentence. The computer-implemented method further includes modifying the user input data based, at least in part on, the wave line and pronunciation tag of the voice image.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to a computer-implemented method of operating a multi-screen virtual reality environment. The computer-implemented method includes performing a wall arrangement and transmission (WA&T) protocol that includes receiving at a second module a function transmitted by a first module over a network to the second module. The second module and the function received over the network are used to generate priority data that identifies a priority of each of a plurality of individual video streams generated by a plurality of video sources. Based at least in part on the priority, the second module is used to generate reduced-size video streams that include selected ones of the plurality of individual video streams. The second module transmits the priority data and a multi-screen video stream that includes the reduced-size video streams and non-reduced-size video streams of the plurality of individual video streams.
