摘要: A system generates an audio signature for a data item based on a source identifier associated with the data item. The system receives a source identifier along with a data item and maps the source identifier to the audio signature using a mapping function that allows a user to distinguish the audio signature from other audio signatures generated for other sources. The mapping functions always map the same source identifier to the same audio signature. The system outputs the audio signature to a user. This enables the user to associate the audio signature with the source. The data item can include, an electronic mail message, a pager signal, a telephone call, a data item in an instant messaging system, an indicator of an entry of a new participant into a conference call or a chat room, or an electronic cookie that identifies a client computer system to a web site.
摘要翻译: 系统基于与数据项相关联的源标识符来生成数据项的音频签名。 该系统与数据项一起接收源标识符,并使用允许用户将音频签名与为其他源生成的其他音频签名区分开的映射功能将源标识符映射到音频签名。 映射功能总是将相同的源标识符映射到相同的音频签名。 系统将音频签名输出给用户。 这使得用户能够将音频签名与源相关联。 数据项目可以包括电子邮件消息,寻呼机信号,电话呼叫,即时消息收发系统中的数据项目,新的参与者的入口的指示符到电话会议或聊天室,或电子cookie 它将客户端计算机系统标识到网站。
