摘要： A system for employing a computer to control a device to provide a plurality of services for a plurality of entities. Each entity corresponds to exactly one of the services and each service has its own copy of the code which defines the service. The system associates a process which executes the service with each service. The code for a service defines a finite state machine which is continually executed by the service's process. While in a given state, the finite state machine may traverse a decision graph which is directly accessible to the process. Actions to be taken on traversal of a node of the decision graph may be defined in the finite state machine. The service's process communicates with other processes and with itself by means of interprocess messages. Each state of the finite state machine contains event handlers for responding to messages received by the service's process. The finite state machine is defined by a special language, the service, logi language, and the decision graphs are defined by means of a graphical editor. The compiler for the service logic language produces not only C++ code defining the finite state machine, but also data base and shell scripts which are used to provision and maintain the services. An embodiment of the system is disclosed which is used in a service node of a telephone switching network to provide telephone services such as 800 number service, caller ID, and the like.

摘要： The invention provides a system and method that transforms a set of still/motion media (i.e., a series of related or unrelated still frames, web-pages rendered as images, or video clips) or other multimedia, into a video stream that is suitable for delivery over a display medium, such as TV, cable TV, computer displays, wireless display devices, etc. The video data stream may be presented and displayed in real time or stored and later presented through a set-top box, for example. Because these media are transformed into coded video streams (e.g. MPEG-2, MPEG-4, etc.), a user can watch them on a display screen without the need to connect to the Internet through a service provider. The user may request and interact with the desired media through a simple telephone interface, for example. Moreover, several wireless and cable-based services can be developed on the top of this system. In one possible embodiment, the system for generating a coded video sequence may include an input unit that receives the multimedia input and extracts image data, and derives the virtual camera scripts and coding hints from the image data, a video sequence generator that generates a video sequence based on the extracted image data and the derived virtual camera scripts and coding hints, and a video encoder that encodes the generated video sequence using the coding hints and outputs the coded video sequence to an output device. The system may also provide customized video sequence generation services to subscribers.

摘要： A method for wide area overlapped ringing is disclosed wherein a primary destination is rung, and, if a no answer condition is encountered after an initial ringing threshold, a secondary destination is rung such that the ringing of the primary and secondary destinations at least partly overlap. Some embodiments involve the ringing of more than one secondary destination, where each secondary destination is rung for a set time and then halted. Other embodiments provide bridging capability for three-way calling. The disclosed method has wide area capability; thus, the secondary destination may comprise any destination accessible by the Publicly-Switched Telephone Network.
摘要翻译：公开了一种用于广域重叠振铃的方法，其中主目的地是梯级的，并且如果在初始振铃阈值之后遇到无应答条件，则次要目的地被梯级，使得主要和次要目的地的振铃至少部分重叠。一些实施例涉及多于一个次要目的地的振铃，其中每个次要目的地被梯级一定时间，然后停止。其他实施例提供用于三方通话的桥接能力。所公开的方法具有广泛的面积能力; 因此，次要目的地可以包括由公共交换电话网络可访问的任何目的地。

摘要： An improved messaging system for transmitting message information to a plurality of recipients comprises the steps of: sending a first message including the predetermined message information to a first recipient address of a first recipient on a list of recipients; updating, after the completion of the step of sending, the list of recipients to create an updated recipient list, the updating being implemented independently of the first recipient at the first recipient address; and sending a second message, including the predetermined message information to an address corresponding to a next recipient selected from the updated recipient list. The method can iteratively repeat the steps of updating and sending the message to thereby transmit messages to a plurality of recipients with the list of recipients being dynamically updated after each message is sent. The recipients may have an opportunity to modify or add to the message before the message is sent on to the next recipient.

摘要： A stream manager provides a way of redirecting and managing messaging and information access in a packet network environment. The stream manager is linked to a packet network, such as the Internet. The stream manager receives over the packet network a message from a user's host server initiated by a user and intended for a destination site. The message bears an address for the stream manager which is provided to the host server by the address server for the packet network, such as a server utilized as part of the domain name system. The stream manager determines the availability of at least one destination server at the destination site to receive and process the message. If a destination server at the destination site is available to receive and process the message, the stream manager selects a destination server from those available.

摘要： A novel mechanism is disclosed by which a sender can direct information such as an audiovisual signal to a particular recipient's audiovisual display device, such as a cable television set and, thereby, share information between the sender and the recipient. In one embodiment of the invention, a calling party originates a telephone call and associates that telephone call with audio-visual information that exists on the caller's personal computer or on an Internet server. The called party answers the call, and can tune an associated cable television to the appropriate channel in order to view the audio-visual information. The caller can modify the audio-visual information during the call. Accordingly, the current invention ties together the telephone, cable, and IP networks in a manner that does not require large investments from cable or telephone service providers. In an alternative embodiment of the invention, a called party, such as a representative at a customer service center or an interactive voice response unit, can associate audio-visual information with the call such that the calling party can see the data on the appropriate television channel. In another embodiment, the telephone keypad can be used to move forwards and backwards through a series of audio-visual screens. In another embodiment, the cable subscriber can preset the television to a particular URL which can be viewed, but not navigated, without the telephone call.
