  • Patent number: 9075695
    Abstract: According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method, system, and computer program product for version conflict checking of installable units (IUs). The method includes receiving a request for version conflict checking of specified IU, the request including a version dependency relationship between IUs that are in a dependency relationship with the specified IU. A version dependency relationship between installed IUs is obtained. The version dependency relationship between the installed IUs is updated according to the version dependency relationships between the IUs that are in a dependency relationship with the specified IU. It is checked whether the specified IU has a version conflict with the updated version dependency relationship between the installed IUs.

  • Patent number: 8650032
    Abstract: The present invention discloses converting a text form into a speech. In the present invention, partial word lists of a data source are obtained by parsing the data source in parallel or in series. The partial word lists are then compiled to obtain phoneme graphs corresponding, respectively, to the partial word lists, and then the obtained phoneme graphs are combined. Speech recognition is then conducted according to the combination results. According to the present invention, computational complexity may be reduced and recognition efficiency may be improved during speech recognition.
