20090076793 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING A MANAGED LANGUAGE TRANSLATION SERVICE - An approach is disclosed for providing a managed language translation service. A request, from a source station, is received, at a switch, to establish a voice call with a destination station. A determination is made whether the request includes an indicator specifying invocation of a translation service managed by a service provider. If the request includes the indicator, the voice call is directed to a gateway that transmits the voice call over a data network to a translation application. The translation application translates, in real-time, speech associated with the voice call from a first language to a second language. The translated speech is transmitted to the destination station. | 03-19-2009 |
20090158443 | PIRACY PREVENTION, DETECTION, AND CONTENT MANAGEMENT - A computing device is configured to receive media content and determine if the received media content includes a stego message. If the media content includes a stego message, then the computing device is further configured to decode at least a portion of the stego message, and perform a task based in part on the decoded portion of the stego message. | 06-18-2009 |
20090293126 | MALWARE DETECTION DEVICE - An exemplary malware detection device includes a data pathway provided between a first data transfer device and a second data transfer device and a processor attached to the data pathway. A memory accessible by the processor contains at least one malware signature and instructions for controlling the processor to interconnect the first and second data transfer devices, direct at least a portion of a data transfer across the data pathway to the processor for analysis, independently analyze the portion of the data transfer using the malware signature, identify malware contained in the portion of the data transfer, and interrupt the data transfer based on the identification of malware. | 11-26-2009 |
20100043047 | UNAUTHORIZED DATA TRANSFER DETECTION AND PREVENTION - A method includes receiving a policy via a network connection, wherein the policy includes at least one signature. Receiving a data communication message from a processor of a computing device via a system bus. Identifying a class, and selectively forwarding the data communication message based in part on the received policy and the identified class. | 02-18-2010 |
20100061662 | System and Methods for Recording Emergency Data - A system and method for recording emergency data during a 911 call. The emergency data recorded may be in the form of a digital image. The digital image may be of the event prompting the 911 call. The digital image may be a single image, a series of images, or streaming video. The emergency data may be received on a portable electronic device, such as a cell phone, through a digital imaging device, such as a digital camera. The emergency data may then be transmitted to a server, wherein the emergency data is stored. The emergency data may be accessed by a 911 dispatcher during a 911 call to review the image data to aid in assessing the emergency recorded in the emergency data. | 03-11-2010 |
20100094619 | AUDIO FREQUENCY REMAPPING - An exemplary system and method are directed at receiving an audio signal and process the audio signal into a remapped audio signal based on a plot profile. The plot profile may include at least one of an identified range of audio frequencies. The processing may comprise retrieving an identified range of audio frequencies from the plot profile; determining a range of impaired audio frequencies in the audio signal based on the identified range of audio frequencies; shifting the frequency of at least a portion of the impaired audio frequencies to outside of the identified range; and continuing to retrieve identified ranges of audio frequencies from the plot profile. The shifting of the impaired audio frequencies of the audio signal may be performed until no further identified ranges of audio frequencies are available for consideration. | 04-15-2010 |
20100154012 | TELEVISION BOOKMARKING WITH MULTIPLATFORM DISTRIBUTION - A system includes a content processing device in communication with a control device, the content processing device is configured to receive multi-media content from a network, and create a bookmark representing at least a portion of the multi-media content upon receiving a signal from the control device. | 06-17-2010 |
20100325140 | SYSTEM FOR AND METHOD OF PARALLEL SEARCHING - A system for and method of parallel searching is presented. According to an embodiment, the techniques may be realized as a method, comprising receiving, at a network device, an indication of an electronic media selection from a user, identifying a search input in metadata associated with the electronic media selection, searching one or more electronic data sources based at least in part on the identified search input, and providing one or more search results via a network to one or more devices accessible to the user, wherein the one or more search results are capable of being delivered during delivery of the electronic media selection to the user. | 12-23-2010 |
20110016485 | DOUBLE-CLICK CHANNEL BUTTON ACCESS OF USER-DEFINED CONTENT LIST - A set-top box receives a channel input from a remote control associated with a user, and determines whether the channel input is a double-click channel input. The set-top box retrieves a user-defined content list, associated with the user, when the channel input is determined to be a double-click channel input, and tunes to a channel associated with the retrieved user-defined content list. The set-top box also receives content associated with the tuned to channel, and provides the received content to a television, where the television displays the received content to the user. | 01-20-2011 |
20110135075 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING CALLER IDENTIFICATION BASED MESSAGING SERVICES - An approach provides caller identification-based messaging services. A user-defined message associated with a directory address of a communication device is received. The user-defined message is inserted into a caller identification field of a caller identification message. Establishment of a communication session is initiated with the communication device. The caller identification message is transmitted to the communication device for presentation of the user-defined message during establishment of the communication session. | 06-09-2011 |
20110145927 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING REMOTE CONFIGURATION OF MISSING MOBILE DEVICES - An approach is provided for remotely configuring a mobile device designated as missing. A request to remotely configure the mobile device is received. In response to the request, at least one setting parameter specifying at least one action to be performed by the mobile device is retrieved. A control message specifying the at least one setting parameter is generated. It is determined whether the mobile device is network inaccessible. The control message is queued for transmission over a data channel to the mobile device when the mobile device is determined to be network inaccessible. | 06-16-2011 |
20110153437 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING VIRTUAL CREDIT CARD SERVICES - An approach is provided for virtual credit card services.
