Filed:

Jun 29, 2000

Appl. No.:

09/605885

Inventors:

Mark R. Walker - Beaverton OR

Assignee:

Intel Corporation - Santa Clara CA

International Classification:

G10L 2106

US Classification:

704258, 704260, 704270

Abstract:

Text that is to be synthesized into human speech is first converted into an intermediate form representation that describe the acoustic-prosodic resolution of the spoken version of the text. The intermediate form can be generated manually, or by an intermediate form generation program at a server computer, and later downloaded to client computers at their request. The client computers synthesize the intermediate form representation to audio for their users using a relatively simple speech rendering program.

Abstract:

Systems, methods, and media for a client device discovering remote user interface applications over a network are disclosed. Embodiments may include a remote user interface client of the client device receiving from a content directory service server a code fragment comprising a uniform resource indicator and determining whether the uniform resource indicator is associated with a remote-capable application. Further embodiments may include, in response to determining that the uniform resource indicator is associated with a remote-capable application, engaging by the client device a remote user interface server and receiving by the client device from the remote user interface server one or more display control commands associated with the remote-capable application and displaying a user interface based on the received display control commands. In some embodiments, engaging the remote user interface server comprises switching from the content directory service server. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.
