Abstract: A telephone user sets up a “personalized” menu identifying a set of information options from which he or she desires to select when placed on-hold in a telephone system. The user's personal preferences are then saved. When the party later makes a call to a telephone system or is called, and then is placed on-hold, the party's telephone service provider or local equipment accesses the user's personalized menu and offers the one or more information options as defined in the menu. In an illustrative embodiment, the personalized menu options are voiced over the telephone line and the user then makes selections using keypad (i.e. DTMF signaling) or voice input. A response may be interrupted to make another menu selection, or to repeat the current response. If the response being played has not completed when the other party returns, that response is suspended and may be completed when the user is placed back on hold or the call is completed.

Abstract translation: 电话用户设置“个性化”菜单，其标识在电话系统中被搁置时他或她期望选择的一组信息选项。 然后保存用户的个人偏好。 当该方随后对电话系统进行呼叫或被呼叫，然后被置于保持状态时，该方的电话服务提供商或本地设备访问用户的个性化菜单并提供如菜单中定义的一个或多个信息选项。 在说明性实施例中，个性化菜单选项通过电话线进行语音，然后用户使用键盘（即DTMF信号）或语音输入进行选择。 响应可能被中断以进行另一个菜单选择，或重复当前响应。 如果正在播放的响应在另一方返回时尚未完成，则该响应被暂停，并且当用户重新保持或呼叫完成时可以完成该响应。

Abstract: A method and apparatus in a computer freeing space in a memory, wherein a plurality of objects are present within the memory. Responsive to an indication that space needs to be freed in the memory, an object is identified within the plurality of objects that is an oldest, least recently used object that is in use in the memory, wherein the object is an identified object and has a set of object attributes. The set of object attributes is inspected for the identified object to determine whether the identified object is a candidate for storage in a seldom used object store. Responsive to a determination that the identified object is a candidate, the object is copied to the seldom used object store, wherein the identified object becomes a relocated object. References to the relocated object to a location of the relocated object in the seldom used object store are adjusted. Space is freed in the memory occupied by the relocated object.

Abstract: A time-enhanced input device driver for a data processing system is capable of generating time-enhanced output in response to input signals. The input device driver receives a first input-event signal followed by a second input-event signal. In response to the second input-event signal, the input device driver generates a character code and an associated time-span code. The time-span code reflects the amount of time that separated the first input-event signal from the second. In an illustrative embodiment, the first and second input-event signals may comprise a key-down signal from a particular key on a keyboard and a key-up signal from that key respectively, in which case the generated character code would correspond to that key. Alternatively, the first input-event signal may comprise a key-up signal or a start signal from a program, and the second input-event signal may comprise a key-down signal or an entry-complete signal, in which case the generated character code would comprise a pause character code, provided sufficient time separated the first input-event signal from the second.

Abstract translation: 用于数据处理系统的时间增强的输入设备驱动器能够响应于输入信号产生时间增强的输出。 输入设备驱动器接收第一输入事件信号，接着是第二输入事件信号。 响应于第二输入事件信号，输入设备驱动器产生字符代码和相关联的时间跨度代码。 时间跨度代码反映了将第一个输入事件信号与第二个输入事件信号分开的时间量。 在说明性实施例中，第一和第二输入事件信号可以包括来自键盘上的特定键的键控信号和来自该键的键控信号，在这种情况下，所生成的字符代码将对应于该键 。 或者，第一输入事件信号可以包括来自程序的键控信号或起始信号，并且第二输入事件信号可以包括键控信号或输入完成信号，在这种情况下，生成的字符 代码将包括暂停字符代码，提供足够的时间将第一输入事件信号与第二输入事件信号分开。

Abstract: A broadcast receiver such as a radio, television, or web browser, which automatically tunes to a preselected signal source upon initialization for a predetermined period of time. During this period of time, the user of the system may receive useful information or directions, such as directions to exit an airport or train station, instructions to orient a new user with a rental car or rental receiver, news, traffic reports, weather reports, instructions regarding hotel facilities or check-in and check-out procedures. In an enhanced form of the invention, the receiver may be automatically tuned to a series of signal sources on a timed basis. Upon conclusion of the predetermined time interval, the radio is optionally re-tuned to a user's preferred radio station or the last signal source which was tuned prior to shut off. The automatically tuned signal sources may include radio stations, television stations, cable television channels, Internet broadcast servers and channels, system memory, or recorded media such as Compact Disk or tape.

Abstract: A telephone device is customized with an indicator for presenting call connection status information to hearing impaired or deaf users. The telephone device detects call status events, such as ringing and busy signals, and presents the call status via the display. The telephone device also receives codes indicating particular call status events. A telephone device may generate a code, which indicates that the user is hearing impaired. Thus, devices receiving this code may perform particular functions in response to such a code. Public switches and public branch exchanges may also be modified to generate and deliver call status codes or messages. The present invention may also deliver call status information through another medium, such as a computer network.

Abstract: A system and method for using write-and-destroy transaction cards which cannot be reprogrammed. The write-and-destroy transaction cards are programmed (i.e., written to) at bit increments representing, in total, the stated value of the card. The stated value may be represented in one or a plurality of denominations and currencies. In use, the remaining value of a card can be ascertained at a merchant location by reading those bits which have not been erased. The remaining value can additionally be confirmed by contacting the issuing financial institution using a unique serial number which may be encoded onto each transaction card. Upon confirmation that the card has sufficient value to conduct the desired transaction, the card is decremented by erasure of the bits representing that value. By invocation of locally stored software, or based upon communication with a host location, the current rate of currency exchange between the merchant-preferred currency and the currency represented at bit increments on the transaction card can be ascertained and the appropriate value decremented by erasure from the card. Once bits have been erased, they cannot be reprogrammed.

Abstract: One or more searchable repositories of bookmark sets are stored in a computer system, each bookmark set can be downloaded to a client browser as a unit. Each bookmark set contains a set of Uniform Resource Locators (URLs) and is associated with related information such as a set of keywords, one or more topics and user specific information. The bookmark set is downloadable as a unit to the client browser. When a search query from a client containing a set of keywords is received, the stored bookmark sets are searched for one or more bookmark sets associated with at least one keyword matching a keyword from the search query. A list of bookmark sets which satisfy the query, i.e. are associated with matching keywords, are returned to the client browser. Responsive to a request for downloading a selected bookmark set, the selected bookmark is served to the client. The selected bookmark set is received and used by the client browser to access the set of URLs in the selected bookmark set.

Abstract: Access to the Internet is provided using a plurality of bookmark sets. A plurality of bookmark sets are stored in a computer system having a browser, each bookmark set including a respective set of Uniform Resource Locators (URLs). One of the bookmark sets is designated as an active bookmark set in the browser. Browser based access to the Internet is allowed according to the URLs in the active bookmark set. When a request to retrieve an Internet file from a designated URL is detected, e.g., by hyperlink, the designated URL is checked against the URLs in the active bookmark set. Only if there is a match between the designated URL and a respective URL in the active bookmark set is the request allowed to proceed. The creation of as well as other actions on a bookmark set is associated with one or more passwords.
