Abstract:
A dialogue system and a speech dialogue operation method are provided. In the system, an inquiry speech signal is generated according to data for specific person and is transferred to a receiver. In response to the inquiry speech signal, a reply speech signal is generated by the receiver, and after the reply speech signal is recognized, a speech correspondence signal is obtained. A ID recognition procedure is performed according to the speech correspondence signal, and a dialogue control signal is generated according to the result of the ID recognition procedure, and accordingly, a response speech signal is generated and transferred to the receiver to continue or terminate the dialogue. When the receiver is recognized to be matched with the specific person, a message delivering procedure is performed to deliver a message to be transferred to the specific person to the receiver.

Abstract:
A computational system is provided that includes: (a) a boundary analyzer 164, 168, and 216 operable to identify a next boundary in a predetermined activity; and (b) an interrupt handler 160 operable to (i) determine that a notification is to be provided to a user, (ii) determine that the user is currently engaged in the predetermined activity on a computational device, and (iii) provide the notification to the user in temporal proximity to the identified next boundary.
Abstract:
Method and apparatus for effecting a voice communication between user terminals connected via a communication network include displaying a menu of country options to a user and receiving a number in local form. Formatting rules are recalled for a destination country selected by the user from the country options. A country prefix for the destination country is prepended to the number in accordance with the formatting rules to generate a formatted number. The formatted number is supplied to a client installed at the user terminal for effecting the voice communication using the formatted number.
Abstract:
A system and method for providing the capability to simultaneously manage multiple conference calls, move participants in the conference calls from one conference call to another and subdivide or join multiple conference calls together, and the like, wherein a participant seeking to initiate conference calls does so at his or her endpoint by selecting conference call identifiers, where the identifiers identify conference calls to be created. The initiating participant then selects the participants to be associated with the particular calls and confirms the selection. Upon confirmation of the selection, the conference calls among the selected participants are established.
Abstract:
A method and apparatus are provided for prompting an agent of an automatic contact distributor during a customer service contact with a client. The method includes the steps of detecting a state of the customer service contact with the client via operation of a terminal of the agent; selecting a set of possible responses for use by the agent from a plurality of sets of possible responses that are appropriate to the detected state of the customer service contact and visually prompting the agent with the selected set of possible responses.
Abstract:

At least one listing is retrieved in response to the communication for a desired contact listing, where the retrieving of the desired listing includes reviewing the calling history of the requester and including, among the at least one retrieved response, a predictive listing.
Abstract:
Various embodiments of systems, methods, and computer programs are disclosed for managing conference sessions via a graphical user interface. One such method comprises: a conferencing system establishing a conference session between a plurality of participants accessing the conferencing system via a communication network; presenting a conference interface via a graphical user interface to a client device operated by one of the participants; displaying in the conference interface a participant object identifying each of the plurality of participants in the conference session; selecting one of the participant objects via the graphical user interface; moving the selected participant object via the graphical user interface to a drop target associated with a breakout session; removing the participant from the conference session; and adding the participant to the breakout session.
Abstract:
An apparatus or endpoint device is disclosed for providing the capability to simultaneously manage multiple conference calls, move participants in the conference calls from one conference call to another and subdivide or join multiple conference calls together, and the like, wherein the apparatus or endpoint device provides a multi-conferencing capability that enables one or more teleconferencing participants to manage multiple teleconferences simultaneously. Each participant in the teleconference call manages their respective teleconference through their apparatus or endpoint device at their specific location by using it to adjust the teleconferencing topology, i.e., who should form what part of each specific teleconference call.
