| 20100010815 | FACILITATING TEXT-TO-SPEECH CONVERSION OF A DOMAIN NAME OR A NETWORK ADDRESS CONTAINING A DOMAIN NAME - To facilitate text-to-speech conversion of a username, a first or last name of a user associated with the username may be retrieved, and a pronunciation of the username may be determined based at least in part on whether the name forms at least part of the username. To facilitate text-to-speech conversion of a domain name having a top level domain and at least one other level domain, a pronunciation for the top level domain may be determined based at least in part upon whether the top level domain is one of a predetermined set of top level domains. Each other level domain may be searched for one or more recognized words therewithin, and a pronunciation of the other level domain may be determined based at least in part on an outcome of the search. The username and domain name may form part of a network address such as an email address, URL or URI. | 01-14-2010 |

| 20090248754 | Providing resumption data in a distributed processing system - An approach for providing a user with resumption data before pausing or terminating a partially-processed job that is processing in a distributed system. Certain applications, when paused, are not able to resume processing data at precisely the point where it was paused. As a result, users surrender some, or all, of the processed portion of the data when processing is paused. In one embodiment of the invention, a user is provided with resumption data before the user confirms a request to pause the processing. Resumption data from each of the service nodes that is processing a segment of source data are collected and aggregated. Resumption data reflects a measure of processed data that would require re-processing if the processing were paused and resumed. Alternatively, resumption data includes a duration of spent processing time that would be lost if the processing were paused and resumed. | 10-01-2009 |
