US Patent:

6442523, Aug 27, 2002

Filed:

May 16, 2000

Appl. No.:

09/572758

Inventors:

Steven H. Siegel - Brooklyn NY 11215

International Classification:

G09B 506

US Classification:

704270, 704260, 434169, 434185

Abstract:

A method of navigating textual information via auditory indicators is provided. Through the pervasive and immediate articulation of virtually all textual elements in response to a comparatively passive action, such as a selection device rollover, a user may quickly peruse titles, headings, list items, and so on, as well as emphasized text, paragraphs, captions, and virtually any unit of visually contiguous text. A user may also hear a particular selected word via a slightly more active action, such as clicking a mouse button. Via use of this method, a child, or other user who may understand a language, but not be able to recognize its orthography, may successfully and easily navigate textual documents.

Via use of this method, a child, or other user who may understand a language, but not be able to recognize its orthography, may successfully and easily navigate textual documents. The method also resumes articulation of text that has been stopped due to a passive deindication. The articulation is restarted approximately at the word where it was stopped.

US Patent:

Filed:

Oct 24, 2003

Appl. No.:

10/692767

Inventors:

Steven H. Siegel - Brooklyn NY, US

International Classification:

G06F 3/00

US Classification:

715738, 715760, 715733

Abstract:

A method for limiting Internet access via the World Wide Web is disclosed. The method may be used to help provide a safe Internet experience for children, to help enforce business practices with respect to the World Wide Web, and analogous purposes. Rather than relying on lists or content filtering, which can provide an unnatural and/or ineffective browsing experience, the method instead allows a computer owner or administrator to specify a “Navigation Boundary”, similar in nature to a fence, with respect to a particular domain, and subsequently allow browser navigation only within that boundary. The boundary substantially follows the “hyperlink contours” of the domain, and thus is deterministic in nature, such that users do not substantially experience the effect of randomly being denied access to a site. Additionally, the user may graphically view his or her location with respect to the boundary.

US Classification:

370352, 3703102, 370328, 370349, 370537, 4554221

Abstract:

A method and apparatus for sharing a single data channel for multiple signaling flows destined to multiple core networks are disclosed. For example, the method receives a plurality of service requests from a plurality of corresponding service clients on a single mobile endpoint device, where each of the plurality of corresponding service clients is to be registered with a different corresponding Internet Protocol Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) network. The method establishes the single data channel to support a plurality of signaling flows associated with the plurality of service requests simultaneously, and routes each signaling message associated with the plurality of service requests to the corresponding IMS network.

Appl. No.:

12/082791

Inventors:

Gilbert J. McGrath - Middletown NJ, US
Reuben Klein - East Brunswick NJ, US
Chaoxin Qiu - Austin TX, US
Steven A. Siegel - Mendham NJ, US
Kermit Hal Purdy - Bernardsville NJ, US

International Classification:

G06F 15/173

US Classification:

709241

Abstract:

The present invention routes an application request to at least one of a plurality of sites in a packet data network. Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) messages that establish initial dialogs and SIP messages that are stand-alone requests are sent from a call session control function system to a SIP application load distribution system. The SIP application load distribution system routes a SIP message to at least one destination site, based at least in part on user-defined local state data and a user-defined application load distribution policy. Local state data is sent from a plurality of sites to an application management and health checking system. Local state data may be sent autonomously from the plurality of sites. Local state data may also be sent from the plurality of sites in response to a request issued by the application management and health checking system.

Inventors:

Steven H. Siegel - Brooklyn NY

International Classification:

G09B 500
G09B 1904
G10L 1300

US Classification:

704270

Abstract:

A method and apparatus which allows a user with minimal understanding of the orthography of a language to nevertheless use its orthography as the basis for performing a database search. Orthographic information is displayed. When a user indicates a possible selection of this information by, for example, placing a mouse cursor over the displayed information the selection is pronounced. When the user selects this information by, for example, clicking a mouse button, the input data associated with the information may be used for a database search, and the results presented to back the user aurally. According to another aspect of the invention, the results may also be presented orthographically. According to another aspect of the invention, the results may also be presented pictorially. According to another aspect of the invention, when the user indicates a possible selection of an orthographically presented result by, for example, placing a mouse cursor over ie result, the result is pronounced.

Appl. No.:

9/136651

Inventors:

Steven H. Siegel - Brooklyn NY

International Classification:

G09B 500
G09B 302

US Classification:

704 1

Abstract:

A method and apparatus which transforms a standard natural language alphabet into a phonetic alphabet provides a user with a plurality of alphabetic characters of a natural language and prompts the user to select a letter. When a letter is selected, a plurality of allographs containing that letter are displayed, along with indications of the sounds of the phonemes which are encoded by the allographs. The plurality of allographs have in common the selected letter. Thus, a user need not learn a specialized phonetic alphabet to represent sounds for which the allographs may not be known. At the same time, the user is taught alternative allographic representations for the same phoneme. In addition, because a letter may appear in allographs which encode respectively different phonemes, the user is taught alternative sounds that the selected letter may represent. This translated phonemic information may be used in a further selection process to specify phonemic information without needing to know a specialized phonemic alphabet.
