20110169579METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR INCREASING DISTRIBUTION OF JITTER WITHIN A RANDOM NUMBER GENERATOR - A random number generator comprises a first high frequency (HF) oscillator, a second low frequency (LF) oscillator, a delay buffer, a multiplexer, and a sampling circuit. The HF oscillator generates a high frequency oscillating signal. The LF oscillator generates a low frequency oscillating signal. The multiplexer selects from the LF oscillating signal and one or more delayed version of the LF oscillating signal to generate a third oscillating signal. The third oscillating signal is then used to sample the HF oscillating signal to output a random bit stream. In one preferred embodiment, the random bit stream is feedback to the multiplexer to make randomized selection. As a result, the original jitter distribution of the LF oscillating signal is increased to a larger jitter distribution of the third oscillating signal to increase the random behavior of the output bit stream.07-14-2011
20110169580INVERTING GATE WITH MAXIMIZED THERMAL NOISE IN RANDOM NUMBER GENERTION - A random number generator comprises a first high frequency (HF) oscillator, a second low frequency (LF) oscillator, and a sampling circuit. The HF oscillator generates a high frequency oscillating signal. The LF oscillator generates a low frequency oscillating signal. The LF oscillating signal is used to sample the HF oscillating signal to generate a sequence of random bits. In one preferred embodiment, the LF oscillator comprises a plurality of stages of inverters, and each inverter comprises a number of series-stacked minimum length transistors. The LF oscillating signal has a jitter distribution due to thermal noise present in each transistor of the LF oscillator. By series stacking a number of minimum length transistors in each inverter, the overall thermal noise in the LF oscillator is maximized to increase the jitter distribution of the LF oscillating signal and thereby increase the random behavior of the sequence of random bits.07-14-2011

20110060810APPLICATION SERVER PROVIDING PERSONALIZED VOICE ENABLED WEB APPLICATION SERVICES USING EXTENSIBLE MARKUP LANGUAGE DOCUMENTS - A unified web-based voice messaging system provides voice application control between a web browser and an application server via an hypertext transport protocol (HTTP) connection on an Internet Protocol (IP) network. The application server, configured for executing a voice application defined by XML documents, selects an XML document for execution of a corresponding voice application operation based on a determined presence of a user-specific XML document that specifies the corresponding voice application operation. The application server, upon receiving a voice application operation request from a browser serving a user, determines whether a personalized, user specific XML document exists for the user and for the corresponding voice application operation. If the application server determines the presence of the personalized XML document for a user-specific execution of the corresponding voice application operation, the application server dynamically generates a personalized HTML page having media content and control tags for personalized execution of the voice application operation; however if the application server determines an absence of the personalized XML document for the user-specific execution of the corresponding voice application operation, the application server dynamically generates a generic HTML page for generic execution of the voice application operation. Hence, a user can personalize any number of voice application operations, enabling a web-based voice application to be completely customized or merely partially customized.03-10-2011
