Abstract: In one embodiment, techniques for manipulating a voice message using a telephone user interface are provided. The telephone user interface receives a mark begin segment command from a telephonic device through a voice modality. The mark begin segment command indicates a beginning point for a voice message segment in the voice message. The telephone user interface then receives a mark end segment command from the telephonic device through the voice modality. The mark segment command indicates an ending point for the voice message segment in the voice message. An action command from the telephonic device is received and an action based on the action command for the voice message segment is performed. The voice message segment is a portion of the voice message determined based on the indicated beginning point of the voice message segment and the indicated ending point of the voice message segment in the voice message.

Abstract: The present invention includes methods and devices for providing. According to some implementations, radio frequency identification (“RFID”) tags are positioned at various locations throughout a building. Building locations can be determined from the RFID tags. Emergency service providers may be equipped with a portable device that includes at least one RFID reader for reading the RFID tags. Some implementations involve transmitting the RFID tag data to a control center from which the emergency services are coordinated. The emergency service workers' current and prior locations can be determined by the portable devices and/or at the control center.

Abstract: Techniques for scheduling a task include receiving task data and quorum data. Task data describes tasks to be performed by one or more participants. Quorum data indicates a participant set of one or more participants to perform each task. Current user data may also be received. Current user data describes a current task set of one or more tasks currently being performed by a particular participant. Either or both of the task data and the current user data describe interruptibility through a particular medium of a plurality of communications media. A particular time interval to schedule a particular task is determined based at least in part on the interruptibility of the task or the particular participant. These techniques allow either or both unscheduled tasks and previously scheduled tasks to be moved to time intervals that overlap other scheduled tasks, including tasks currently being performed by a participant.

Abstract: Disclosed is an active or dynamic RFID tag that actively provides current status information regarding a particular item, as well as mechanisms for recognizing dynamic RFID information read from such RFID tag. Static identifying information regarding the particular item is provided either by the same active/dynamic RFID tag or by a different passive RFID tag. While the RFID tag may passively or actively provide general identification, the RFID actively provides status information that corresponds to changes in the corresponding item's status. In a first implementation, active RFID tags are positioned next to one or more components within a system so that each active RFID tag is powered and transmitting its RFID information when its corresponding component is operational. In contrast, each active RFID tag is positioned so that it is not powered and not transmitting its RFID information when its component is failing. Accordingly, an RFID reader can then know when a system has a failing component when a one of the component's corresponding active RFID tag is not transmitting its RFID information. In this first implementation, the active RFID either transmits or fails to transmit based on its component's status state. In a second implementation, a dynamic RFID is associated with a specific component, set of components, or system, and the dynamic RFID tag dynamically provides an RFID reader with RFID information that changes with its associated item's changing status state. The status state may correspond to any suitable parameter of the item or product that can change over time. Thus, the dynamic RFID provides different transmission frequencies based on different status states of its component or system.

Abstract translation: 公开了主动或动态RFID标签，其主动地提供关于特定项目的当前状态信息，以及用于识别从这种RFID标签读取的动态RFID信息的机制。 关于特定项目的静态识别信息由相同的主动/动态RFID标签或不同的无源RFID标签提供。 当RFID标签可以被动地或主动地提供一般标识时，RFID主动地提供对应于相应项目状态的变化的状态信息。 在第一实现中，有源RFID标签位于系统内的一个或多个部件旁边，使得每个有源RFID标签被供电并且当其相应的部件可操作时传送其RFID信息。 相比之下，每个有源RFID标签被定位成当其组件出现故障时它不被供电并且不发送其RFID信息。 因此，当组件的相应的有源RFID标签中的一个没有发送其RFID信息时，RFID读取器可以知道何时系统具有故障组件。 在该第一实现中，有源RFID基于其组件的状态来传输或不发送。 在第二实施例中，动态RFID与特定组件，组件或系统集合相关联，并且动态RFID标签动态地向RFID读取器提供随其相关联项目的改变状态状态而改变的RFID信息。 状态可以对应于可随时间变化的物品或产品的任何合适的参数。 因此，动态RFID基于其组件或系统的不同状态提供不同的传输频率。
