Abstract:

A system that flexibly, retrieves, processes and distributes data across a global computer network is disclosed. Within the system, a first party identifier is captured and converted into a Linkage Key, such as a United States Postal Service Delivery point code (11-digit zip code). The Linkage Key is then used to retrieve Linkage Key indexed data from various network nodes that house components of a virtual Linkage Key indexed database. A Voice Recognition Server uses dynamic grammars built using a captured identifier of a communicating party to efficiently translate speech in a network configuration.
