Methods 300 and systems 100 are provided for notifying a mobile telephone user of an incoming call in a loud ambient environment. A call notification system registers mobile devices located within the boundary of the area it serves, and couples to the mobile devices using a short range communication technology such as Bluetooth. Upon detecting an incoming call, the mobile device alerts the notification system after a predetermined number of rings. After a predetermined number of rings the notification system, in turn, presents an incoming call notification using visual cues or audio cues to catch the user's attention.

Display time for a billboard message is varied in proportion to measured speed of one or more vehicles. This may include varying not only the time a message is presented on the billboard, but also varying the density of the message. An overall message may be broken into segments displayed a sequence of billboards depending on the speed, e.g., for a faster moving vehicle the message has more segments. If the speed of a vehicle is great enough, the message segments are also reduced to fewer words or graphics, which may also be larger. Also, clusters of vehicles are detected and a billboard message display is varied in response to the clusters, which may include display time or segmentation variation, so as to more nearly optimize the number of persons who are able to see the message. Further, a billboard is rotated per vehicle speed, distance, length or clusters.

Short range RF networks for transmitting to a plurality of wireless RF transceiving devices within a defined area. The wireless devices within the defined area each include a short range RF device transceiver enabling the device to wirelessly communicate with a data processor controlled wireless transmission system within said defined area, including a centrally located short range RF system transceiver for transmitting accessed data to the wireless devices. The central system transceiver should have an RF transmission range covering the defined area. An RF channel(s) is set to be used only for alarms. Then if an external alarm is sensed, all transmissions along other channels in the transmission area may be overridden, and the alarm data broadcast over the dedicated channel to all operational wireless devices within the area.

A system, computer program product and computer-implemented method of dynamically adding a best suited application server to a cluster of application servers are provided. To do so, a history of quality of service (QoS) of a plurality of application servers is maintained. Using the history of QoS, an application server is dynamically selected and added to the cluster when the cluster is under a heavy workload. The selected application server is one that has the most historically favorable QoS and a heavy workload is one that exceeds a user-configurable threshold.

A method for content checking a document, the method including: if the document is a word processing document then: determining if a profile category has been associated with the word processing document; if a profile category has not been associated with the word processing document, applying a default profile rule to perform the content checking; if a profile category has been associated with the word processing document, accessing a user-defined profile rule and applying the user-defined profile rule to perform the content checking; if the document is an email then: determining a profile category for each recipient of the email; determining a profile rule associated with each recipient of the email in response to the profile category; selecting one of the profile rules based on a rank of the profile rules; applying the selected profile rule to perform the content checking of the email.

An apparatus and method for verifying the audio output at a client device are provided. With the apparatus and method, when a user requests access to resources, a profile for the user is retrieved and used to determine whether the user is to be presented with audio advertisements. If so, a test audio advertisement is sent to the client device. An agent application on the client device outputs the audio advertisement, via a speaker, to the user and records the audio that is being output by the speaker using a microphone or other recording device. The recording of the audio output is then sent back to the server that sent the original test audio advertisement for comparison. The server then compares the recording of the audio output to the original test audio advertisement. If the recording matches the original test audio advertisement, access to the resources is granted.
摘要:
A method and system whereby a customer automatically receives an assignment on his wireless device without the need to visit a reservation desk. When the customer initially makes a reservation with a vendor, a computer records the wireless device's identification. When the customer arrives at or near the vendor's location, the system creates an out-of-range condition for the wireless device by shielding a portion of a location that the customer will be passing through. In response, the wireless device re-scans the control channels in an attempt to establish better communications with a wireless communication tower. A transceiver positioned in the transition zone transmits a channel that is detected and locked-on by the wireless device. The wireless device transmits it identification to the transceiver, which in turn forwards it to the computer. The computer sends assignment information to the wireless device.

Controlling access to a facility includes sending a program and profile for facility services to a user's portable device. The services have telephones connected via a local area network (“LAN”), so a call originating on the LAN to such a telephone may be completed on the LAN without accessing a wide area telephone network (“WAN”). The program is executed on the user's portable device so that the device operates in a facility mode. In this mode, the device displays services from the profile, so that the user can select a service and easily place telephone calls to it solely over the LAN. Responsive to the user's service selection, in a normal operating sub-mode the user's portable device places a call via the WAN using a longer telephone number and in a local operating sub-mode the user's portable device places the call via the LAN using a shortcut number.
摘要:
An implementation in a computer controlled mouse for storing a plurality of data entries to be repetitively entered into any computer controlled display screen connected to the control mouse combined with means for displaying a menu of items representative of the plurality of stored data entries. There is also an implementation controlled by the mouse for selecting items from the menu combined with means in the mouse for controlling the entry of the selected items at selected positions in display panels on the display screen. The computer will include a function, responsive to the function in the mouse for controlling the entry of selected items, for entering these selected items in said display panels. The function for entering the selected items in said display panels is in the operating system of said computer.
