Abstract: A Java implemented system connects a telephony Voice-response system, such as a Voice-mail box or an IVR, and a terminal over the Internet. An IP-PSTN gateway is used to bridge the telephony world and the IP network. A Java-based client 17 communicates with a standard HTTP web server 16 for sending dialing information and other instructions to the Voice-response system. The web server communicates with the IP-PSTN gateway 13 using a servlet 14 or cgi-bin script running on the HTTP web server. Instructions pass to the Voice-response system and audio data is sent in real-time from the Voice-response system to the gateway, where it is compressed and forwarded to the client which decompresses the audio data and plays the messages. The user operates the Voice-response system in conventional manner, so that standard Voice-response functionality is maintained. The client is written in Java as an applet, so any Java-enabled web browser can run the client and connect to the HTTP web server. Dialing information and instructions which are sent from the applet to the Voice-response system, can be easily configured in the client.

Abstract: In a method and system for downloading graphic images on the Network, at least one high-resolution graphic image file of a reference image is stored at a network server. At least part of the reference image is compressed and downloaded at reduced resolution from the network server to a client connected to the network server. Upon suitable decompression, a corresponding low-resolution image is displayed and size data uniquely specifying a portion of the displayed image is uploaded from the client to the network server. The specified portion of the high-resolution graphic image file is extracted from the network server and downloaded to the client where it is displayed. Such an approach obviates the need to transfer high-resolution data intensive graphic files to the client and further allows the heavy image processing to be performed on the server much faster than is achieved in prior approaches where processing is performed locally at the client.
