A peer-to-peer file sharing client with background file sharing is provided in a segmented peer-to-peer file sharing network. Each file sharing participant may designate an amount of bandwidth and/or storage space for background file sharing. Peer-to-peer file sharing clients then share file data and content in the background automatically. The client may participate in additional swarms, in the background, to generally increase the number of peers in file sharing networks, thus increasing the speed of downloading desired files for other users.

A method is provided for dynamically inserting email recipients based on entering a subject. A subject is received being typed by a user for an email. The subject being typed is parsed. It is recognized that the subject has been previously stored with corresponding email addresses related to the subject. In response to recognizing that the subject has been previously stored, the previously stored corresponding email addresses that relate to the subject are inserted. The subject and the corresponding email addresses were previously typed by the user, such that the subject and the corresponding email addresses could be stored. The corresponding email addresses are respectively inserted in TO fields, carbon copy (CC) fields, and/or blind carbon copy (BCC) fields of the email in accordance with a manner in which the corresponding email addresses were previously typed by the user.

In some embodiments, a method comprises detecting a request to append a signature to an outgoing email, wherein the email is addressed from a sender to a recipient. The method can also comprise determining one or more temporal conditions associated with the email and determining one or more social relationships associated with the recipient. The method can also include selecting the signature from a predefined list of signatures, wherein the selecting includes comparing a group of signature rules to the one or more temporal conditions and the one or more social relationships. The method can also comprise appending the signature to the outgoing email and transmitting the email to the recipient.

Allowing users of a folksonomy tagging system to use any phrase they feel is relevant to the resource can lead to ambiguities within the system. For example, a user may tag a picture of a gift with the keyword “bow”. Another user may tag a picture of a bow and arrow with the keyword “bow”. This may cause a problem for someone searching with the keyword “bow” when looking for information about making a bow for a gift. The user looking for gift bows does not want to see search results for bows and arrows. Functionality can be implemented in a folksonomy tagging system to disambiguate tags by associating them with definitions. Associating ambiguous tags with appropriate definitions will increase search accuracy for users of folksonomy tagging systems, thus allowing users to find relevant information more efficiently.

Systems are disclosed herein that can capture image data reflecting real world objects and/or actions and convert this data into a format that, is usable in a virtual universe (VU). Thus, image data representing real world/actual objects and actions can be acquired, converted into virtual universe compatible data, sent to a VU server where the actions and objects can be associated with a virtual area or an avatar, and a recreation of the objects and actions can be displayed to a user in the VU. This allows a participant to customize activities and objects in the VU, and provide a unique “personality” for their avatar and their VU. Other embodiments are also disclosed.

Enabling dynamic VoiceXML in an X+V page of a multimodal application implemented with the multimodal application operating in a multimodal browser on a multimodal device supporting multiple modes of interaction including a voice mode and one or more non-voice modes, the multimodal application operatively coupled to a VoiceXML interpreter, including representing by the multimodal browser an XML element of a VoiceXML dialog of the X+V page as an ECMAScript object, the XML element comprising XML content; storing by the multimodal browser the XML content of the XML element in an attribute of the ECMAScript object; and accessing the XML content of the XML element in the attribute of the ECMAScript object from an ECMAScript script in the X+V page.

Dynamically defining a VoiceXML grammar of a multimodal application, implemented with the multimodal application operating on a multimodal device supporting multiple modes of interaction including a voice mode and one or more non-voice modes, the multimodal application operatively coupled to a VoiceXML interpreter, and the method includes loading the X+V page by the multimodal application, from a web server into the multimodal device for execution, the X+V page including one or more VoiceXML grammars in one or more VoiceXML dialogs, including at least one in-line grammar that is declared but undefined; retrieving by the multimodal application a grammar definition for the in-line grammar from the web server without reloading the X+V page; and defining by the multimodal application the in-line grammar with the retrieved grammar definition before executing the VoiceXML dialog containing the in-line grammar.
摘要:
In accordance with one illustrative embodiment, when a file is moved from the background to the foreground in a peer-to-peer client, the client makes a local request for file pieces. The client sends a handshake message to itself to check for available pieces. The client then exchanges messages locally the same way it would with external peers. As an alternative approach to local message passing, the client may keep a local record of file fragments in a data structure, such as a markup language document or other data repository. The client may then query the data structure for needed file fragments before submitting a request to the peer-to-peer network. Every time a new file segment is downloaded and validated in the background, or the foreground, the peer-to-peer client may update the data structure. Then, the client may simply query the data structure for the specific segment it wishes to download.
