摘要:
Systems and methods for initiating a telephone call on a communication device receive, into a computerized device, an instruction to connect a communication device to a communication receiver using a call-in string comprising a call-in number and a pass code. The call-in string is parsed to separate the call-in number and the pass code, using the computerized device. A pause indicator is identified in the call-in string, using the computerized device. The pause indicator is formatted to a type-specific format appropriate for the type of communication device, using the computerized device. The call-in number is transmitted from the computerized device to the communication receiver. A pause is executed, using the computerized device, according to the pause indicator formatted for a specific type of device. The pass code is transmitted from the computerized device to the communication receiver.

Embodiments of the present invention provide an approach for aggregating Internet addresses (e.g., Uniform Resource Locators (URLs)) in a networked computing environment. In a typical embodiment, a set of URLs is received (e.g., by a system/engine). Upon receipt, a composite URL comprising at least portions of each received URL is generated and associated with a newly generated web page. The received set of URLs are displayed on the web page in a list, or the like, that may be sorted according to a set of criteria.

Implementing communications security includes creating levels of permissions for association with inbound communications. The levels of permissions are indicative of components of the communications enabled for transmission to a recipient computer. The communications security also includes creating conditions upon which currently-assigned levels of permissions are adjustable to a next level of the levels of permissions. In response to identifying an inbound communication received from a sender, the communications security evaluates content of the inbound communication, determines a trust value for the inbound communication responsive to the evaluating, applies the conditions to the inbound communication and the sender, determines an assignment of one of the levels of permissions for the inbound communication in response to applying the conditions, and transmits the inbound communication to the recipient computer, including any components enabled for transmission, based on the assignment of the level of permissions.

A method, system, and computer program product for determining a level of cleanliness of a multi-touch screen display, characterizing objects that make contact with the screen, and initiating a specific maintenance action on the screen, based on screen cleanliness and the object(s) characterization(s). A screen diagnostic and maintenance (SDM) utility initiates a number of procedures to determine the type of object(s) and a set of characteristics of object(s) that make contact with the touch screen. Based on the results of the procedures, the SDM utility characterizes/identifies the object(s). In addition, the SDM utility initiates maintenance screen check(s) based on information stored in maintenance configuration file(s). Based on the results of the maintenance check(s), configuration file(s) data and type and characterization of the object(s) that have made contact with the screen, the SDM utility determines the type of maintenance that is performed and the timing/schedule of the maintenance action(s).

An approach for allocating computing resources based on a confidence level associated with responses to queries is provided. In a typical embodiment, a query is received from a querying user, and a search for a response to the query is conducted. A confidence level associated with the response is then determined. If the confidence level of the response does not meet a predetermined threshold, additional computing resources are allocated, and the search and corresponding response are updated (e.g., iteratively). An updated confidence level based on the updated response is then determined. Once the predetermined threshold has been met by the confidence level of the response, the response can be returned to the querying user.

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.

Arrangements are disclosed herein that can capture image data reflecting real world objects and/or interactions and convert this data into a format that is usable in a virtual universe (VU). In one embodiment, a method can include receiving sets of image data that capture an object or a setting from different viewing angles. The image can be in multiple data sets where the sets have at least one common feature. The image data can be analyzed using the common features in the image data and a spatial map can be created. The spatial map can be modified (if required) such that a VU engine can use the modified data to provide a VU that has a representation of the real world object and/or interaction. This allows a participant to customize objects and/or activities in the VU, and provide a unique “persona” for their avatar and their VU.

Methods, apparatus, or products for displaying an image of an object placed on a surface computer, the surface computer including a surface, surface computer capable receiving multi-touch input through the surface and rendering display output on the surface, the surface computer including a scanner, that include: detecting, by the surface computer, an object placed on the surface; identifying, by the surface computer, a region of the surface upon which the object is placed; scanning, by the surface computer using the scanner, the identified region of the surface to create an object image of the object; and rendering, by the surface computer, the object image within the identified region without modifying portions of any other images rendered on the surface outside the identified region.

The present invention is directed to a system, method and program product for interactively obtaining access to restricted content. A system is disclosed that includes a first device operable by a restricted party to transmit an access request to a restricting party. The access request requests access to the restricted content or to restricted event. A server receives the access request and relays it to the restricting party. A second device that is operable by the restricting party receives the access request from the server and transmits an access request response to the first device via the server.
