摘要:
A device can connect to a packet data network through a first data channel, such as a connection with a wireless telecommunications network. The device can additionally connect to the packet data network through a second data channel. The device can simultaneously transmit data over the first and second data channels. Data channels can be added or removed in order to change the bandwidth available to the device.

A wireless instant messaging system is disclosed. A mobile station (MS), such as a cellular telephone for instance, may be registered with an instant messaging (IM) server as being available to receive instant messages via an IM proxy. A user at an IM client terminal may then send an instant message destined for a user at the MS. The IM server may direct the message to a service node (SN), which may convert the message into an industry standard SMS message and send the SMS message to the MS. At the MS, a user may read the SMS message and engage a callback feature, which will establish a dial-up voice connection between the MS and the SN. The user at the MS may then speak an instant message response, and the SN may record the response as a compressed audio file. The SN may then send the compressed audio file as an attachment to an instant message back to the user at the IM client terminal. The IM client terminal may then play the spoken response message. The invention facilitates robust instant messaging communication, while avoiding the need for a user at the mobile station to engage in cumbersome text entry via a numeric keypad.

Computerized video telephony enhances the interaction between a calling party and a called user wherein the called user is an enterprise employing a computerized, automated telephone response system together with a pool of live human operators or agents. The present invention coordinates the handling of the network data call(s) so that video image content may be provided to the calling user while connected to the automated system and then after the telephone call is transferred to the live operator.

A combined telephonic/computerized on-demand ordering system for goods or services employs a computer network communication session that is established automatically in response to a telephone call made from a requestor to a provider. The computer network data call can provide video images synchronized to menu selections presented by an automated telephone response system.

Improved imaging film-forming compositions and improved organo tellurium imaging films are provided. The improvement is the inclusion of water in the film-forming compositions. Imaging films made from such compositions exhibit improved speed.
摘要:
This application discloses an imaging composition employing a tellurium compound sensitive to activating radiation. Such imaging compositions have been disclosed in a number of earlier patents, such as U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,142,896, 4,066,460 and 4,106,939. This application discloses improvements in the foregoing imaging compounds employing glycerol ethers or glycerol thioethers of the formulaR.sup.7 --X--CH.sub.2 CHOH--CH.sub.2 OH
摘要:
Imaging films and film-forming compositions are provided which include a reducible tellurium compound, a reductant precursor, a source of labile hydrogen incorporated in a matrix. The reductant precursors are of the formulae ##STR1## where Y.sub.1 is alkoxy, Y.sub.2 is chloro or alkoxy and Y.sub.3 is hydrogen, chloro or alkoxy.Methods are provided for synthesizing the reductant precursors.

This application relates to an imaging composition employing a tellurium compound sensitive to activating radiation. Such imaging compositions have been disclosed in a number of earlier patents, such as U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,142,896, 4,066,460 and 4,106,939. This application discloses improvements in masked reducing agents for such compositions. The improved masked reducing agents are compounds of the formulae ##STR1## wherein Y is hydrogen or ##STR2## said compound containing at least one ##STR3##
摘要:
A data call between at least two internetworked computers is established using a central server. Once the data call is in place, prerecorded motion video is shared between the two computers by creating a streaming video server on one user's computer for streaming the prerecorded motion video simultaneously to both users as clients of the streaming server. Either user can pause, rewind, or fast forward the streamed video as it is viewed by both users.
摘要:
A data call between at least two internetworked computers is established using a central server. Once the data call is in place, any types of data, information, or computer resources are shared between the two computers, regardless of protocol or data format, by creating a virtual server on one user's computer for serving the shared information simultaneously to both users as clients of the virtual server.
