20100061529 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING SERVICE INTERACTIONS - An interactive voice and data response system that directs input to a voice, text, and web-capable software-based router, which is able to intelligently respond to the input by drawing on a combination of human agents, advanced speech recognition and expert systems, connected to the router via a TCP/IP network. The digitized input is broken down into components so that the customer interaction is managed as a series of small tasks performed by a pool of human agents, rather than one ongoing conversation between the customer and a single agent. The router manages the interactions and keeps pace with a real-time conversation. The system utilizes both speech recognition and human intelligence for purposes of interpreting customer utterances or customer text, where the role of the human agent(s) is to input the intent of caller utterances, and where the computer system—not the human agent—determines which response to provide given the customer's stated intent (as interpreted/captured by the human agents). The system may use more than one human agent, or both human agents and speech recognition software, to interpret simultaneously the same component for error-checking and interpretation accuracy. | 03-11-2010 |

20100061539 | CONFERENCE CALL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - Systems and methods are described for improving connection to and management of conference calls. An inference/rules engine and human backed speech interpretation subsystem enable the system to efficiently use knowledge about the call to identify the caller and determine to which conference he or she should be connected. During the conference, a virtual assistant is available to interpret and execute system commands spoken by a caller, such as in a side conference accessed via DTMF tones. | 03-11-2010 |
20100063815 | REAL-TIME TRANSCRIPTION - A computing system accepts audio from one or more sources, parses the audio into chunks, and transcribes the chunks in substantially real time. Some transcription is performed automatically, while other transcription is performed by humans who listen to the audio and enter the words spoken and/or the intent of the caller (such as directions given to the system). The system provides for participants a user interface that is updated in substantially real time with the transcribed text from the audio stream(s). A single audio line can be used for simple transcription, and multiple audio lines are used to provide a real-time transcript of a conference call, deposition, or the like. A pool of analysts creates, checks, and/or corrects transcription, and callers/observers can even assist in the correction process through their respective user interfaces. Ads derived from the transcript are displayed together with the text in substantially real time. | 03-11-2010 |

20100274818 | Method and System for Updating Object Data With Respect to Object Specifications in a Product Life Cycle Management System - The invention is directed to a Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) update process for updating objects with respect to specifications. The process invokes dependence relations between objects. It relies on building a directed graph, wherein objects are the nodes of the graph. An arc (also called “edge”) is directed from a second object to a first object, the latter depending on the second object according to dependence relations of the PLM system. Thus, the update can be carried by browsing the graph along the direction of the arcs in the graph. Owing to the reversion of the graph with respect to the dependence of objects, the simple solution of the invention guarantees that the update of an object occurs only when the ancestor object it depends on is up to date, and so on. This drastically reduces failures at update in practice. | 10-28-2010 |
20110112803 | Method and System for Designing an Assembly of Objects in a System of Computer-Aided Design - The invention is directed to a method for designing an assembly of objects in a system of computer-aided design, the method comprising: (i) selecting a first object and a second object of the assembly, each of the first object and the second object having interface information; (ii) computing a set of positions of the first object relatively to the second object of the assembly; and (ii) displaying simultaneously representations of the computed positions of the first object relatively to the second object. | 05-12-2011 |
20110270586 | Method and System for Designing an Assembly of Objects in a System of Computer-Aided Design - The invention is directed to a method for designing an assembly of objects in a system of computer-aided design, the method comprising: (i) selecting a first object and a second object of the assembly, each of the first object and the second object having interface information; (ii) computing a set of relative positions between the first object and the second object of the assembly; (iii) ranking the relative positions of the set between the first object and the second object according to at least one criterion; and (iv) providing the best of the relative positions between the first object and the second object according to the ranking step. | 11-03-2011 |
20140025349 | Designing An Assembly Of Objects In A Computer-Aided Design System - The invention is directed to a method for designing an assembly of objects in a system of computer-aided design, the method comprising: (i) selecting a first object and a second object of the assembly, each of the first object and the second object having interface information; (ii) computing a set of positions of the first object relatively to the second object of the assembly; and (ii) displaying simultaneously representations of the computed positions of the first object relatively to the second object. | 01-23-2014 |
20140032182 | Computer-Implemented Method For Optimising The Design Of A Product - The invention has for object a computer-implemented method of designing a product, the product being composed of an assembly of components organised hierarchically in a product tree, the method comprising the steps of: initially selecting a component; determining a path comprising the product tree's components located between the root of the product tree and the initially selected component; navigating through this path by using a scrolling mean in order to choose a candidate component among the path's components; selecting the said candidate component as a perimeter of design action PDA component; activating at least a functionality required for modifying the component defined as the perimeter of design action. | 01-30-2014 |
