| 20090052437 | System and Method for Dynamic Telephony Resource Allocation Between Premise and Hosted Facilities - A population of networked Application Gateway Centers or voice centers provides telephony resources. The telephony application for a call number is typically created by a user in XML (Extended Markup Language) with predefined telephony XML tags and deployed on a website. A voice center provides facility for retrieving the associated XML application from its website and processing the call accordingly. The individual voice centers are either operated at a hosted facility or at a customer's premise. Provisioning Management Servers help to allocate telephony resources among the voice centers. This is accomplished by suitably updating a voice center directory. In this way, the original capacity at a premise, predetermined by the hardware installed, can be adjusted up or down. If the premise is under capacity, it can be supplemented by that from a hosted facility. If the premise has surplus capacity, it can be reallocated for use by others outside the premise. | 02-26-2009 |
| 20090052641 | System and Method for Dynamic Call-Progress Analysis and Call Processing - A telephony application such as an interactive voice response (“IVR”) needs to identify quickly the nature of the call (e.g., whether it is a person or machine answering a call) in order to initiate an appropriate voice application. Conventionally, the call stream is sent to a call-progress analyzer (“CPA”) for analysis. Once a result is reached, the call stream is redirected to a call processing unit running the IVR according to the analyzed result. The present scheme feeds the call stream simultaneous to both the CPA and the IVR. The CPA is allowed to continue analyzing and outputting a series of analysis results until a predetermined result appears. In the meantime, the IVR can dynamically adapt itself to the latest analysis results and interact with the call with a minimum of delay. | 02-26-2009 |
| 20100290600 | System and Method for Encrypted Media Service in an Interactive Voice Response Service - A third-party interactive voice response service includes a media archiving service in which media streams from a call to a subscriber is encrypted by a public key of the subscriber. The media streams may optionally be compressed and are encrypted in real-time so that at any time no tangible portion of the media streams can be accessed by the third party provider. The multiple media streams can optionally be compressed and/or encrypted individually or after they have been combined into a combined stream. The subscriber is able to retrieve the encrypted media streams and decrypt them using the subscriber's private key. The encryption and compression are under program control of the interactive voice response service. | 11-18-2010 |
| 20110046956 | System And Method For Improved Dynamic Allocation Of Application Resources - A self-help application platform such as one hosting an interactive voice response (IVR) has a browser that executes application scripts to implement the self-help application. The execution of the application scripts is performed by utilizing various application resources, such as media conversions from text to speech (TTS) and speech to text (automatic speech recognition ASR) and other media servers. The platform is provided with a dynamic resource selection mechanism in which the application is executed with an updated optimum set of application resources distributed over different locations. The selection is based on the profiles of the browser, users, route, and quality of service. The selection is further modulated by the browser's previous experiences with the individual resources. The selection is made dynamically during the executing of the application script. | 02-24-2011 |
| 20110046960 | Multi-Channel Interactive Self-Help Application Platform and Method - An interactive voice response (IVR) platform running a voice application for use with a voice client is extended to support text messaging clients and other clients of other media types on other channels. An application-to-text messaging interface interfaces with text messaging clients via a text messaging protocol transport and interfaces with the IVR via an API. It includes a user/application manager to handle user and application accounts and a state/session manager to handle state information required by the text messaging operations and to handle sessions maintained by the IVR. Text modules are implemented having text synthesis and text recognition with a dictionary/grammar. These allow voice-specific application scripts to be interpreted in a text channel. The extended multi-channel platform supports an open source text messaging network and also through a transport gateways to other types of text messaging clients. | 02-24-2011 |

| 20100130821 | ENDOSCOPIC OVERTUBE - An endoscopic guide for natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery. The device is a semi-flexible over-tube extending from the incisors through stomach and into the peritoneum. The over-tube has an inflatable balloon at its midpoint to occlude the esophageal lumen and prevent potential reflux of gastric content into the esophagus. The distal end is surrounded by two narrow inflatable balloons that are utilized on either side of the gastrotomy to keep the device in place with its lumen open into the peritoneum. The over-tube has a valve at the proximal opening that prevents leakage or peritoneal insufflation. The over-tube sheaths and protects the esophagus and guides instruments into the peritoneum. This device avoids re-intubation of the esophagus, promotes safe and easy access with increased efficiency and accuracy of insertion of the endoscope and other instruments, minimizes risks of perforation or other mucosal injuries, and allows secure control of the gastrotomy. | 05-27-2010 |
| 20100331625 | ENDOSCOPIC OVERTUBE - An over-tube was developed for receiving and guiding endoscopic instruments into a patient's anus, through the colon, and into the peritoneum. The over-tube has a flexible sheath adapted for insertion into the anus through the colon and out the peritoneum of a patient. A stiffened region is used to protect the colonic wall from injury during insertion of medical instruments through the patient's lower gastrointestinal tract. The proximal end of the over-tube is surrounded by two narrow inflatable balloons on either side of the colotomy to keep the device in place with its lumen open into the peritoneum and further prevent leakage of insufflation. The device may comprise two channels, one for duel channel endoscopes and larger medical instruments or single lumen endoscopes, and an additional channel for surgical instruments. A distal valve prevents insufflation leakage, making the device especially useful in NOTES surgeries. | 12-30-2010 |

| 20110082930 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MONITOR AND NOTIFICATION IN A NETWORK - A user specifies one or more monitoring/probing rules on a client station. These rules specify user instructions for monitoring and probing conditions, events and data on monitored sites on the Internet. The client station transfers the monitor/probing rules to the monitoring site which also processes and interprets the monitoring/probing rules. When the monitoring site processes these rules, it results in (1) an allocation of space and (2) the creation or initialization of agent programs, such that these agent programs will affect periodic monitoring of Internet sites and send data therefrom back to monitoring site. If the retrieved information at the monitoring site satisfies the user specified conditions, the monitoring site will conduct further exploration to gather more information which may help determine the causes of these conditions. The results of such a probe may be obtained from the monitoring site or the Internet, and are communicated by the monitoring site to the client station for display on a display device. | 04-07-2011 |

| 20100258784 | Method Of Efficient Coupling Of Light From Single-Photon Emitter To Guided Radiation Localized To Sub-Wavelength Dimensions On Conducting Nanowires - A cavity free, broadband approach for engineering photon emitter interactions via sub-wavelength confinement of optical fields near metallic nanostructures. When a single CdSe quantum dot (QD) is optically excited in close proximity to a silver nanowire (NW), emission from the QD couples directly to guided surface plasmons in the NW, causing the wire's ends to light up. Nonclassical photon correlations between the emission from the QD and the ends of the NW demonstrate that the latter stems from the generation of single, quantized plasmons. Results from a large number of devices show that the efficient coupling is accompanied by more than 2.5-fold enhancement of the QD spontaneous emission, in a good agreement with theoretical predictions. | 10-14-2010 |
