Message routing

Methods, devices, signals, and systems are provided in a message routing architecture which provides improved capabilities for integrating “digital” communication through email messages with “analog” communication through voice and/or fax or pager messages. Email can be addressed using nothing more than a standard telephone or fax number. If the registered owner of the telephone or fax number has a corresponding email address, then the invention converts the telephone or fax number to the email address for delivery and uses standard email delivery systems to deliver the message. If no conventional delivery email address is known, or if the message sender or recipient specify multiple delivery modes, then the email message content is transformed into voice, pager and/or fax content and delivered to the recipient using the telephone or fax number which was specified as the email address. Familiar telecommunications services such as call forwarding and selective call blocking can also be used with messages that originate as email. The invention also supports use of telecommunications numbers as indexes into databases which contain public key certificates, to make it unnecessary for a proposed message recipient to provide its public key expressly in advance to each particular proposed message originator.

System and method for routing network messages

InactiveUS20060182103A1Facilitates duplex communicationRelieving of riskData switching by path configurationTraffic capacityVirtual address space
A network routing system is provided that may establish a communication session between a local device and a remote destination. To establish a communication session, the local device generates a message directed to the remote destination. A traffic processor intercepts the message and redirects the message to a predefined network server in a secure fashion. The network server receives the message, and extracts the address for the remote destination, as well as message data. The network server has a pool of available virtual address that are registered with the network server. The network server associates a virtual source address with the real address of the local device or traffic processor, and opens a communication session. The virtual address is set as the source address for the message, and the message is sent to the remote destination. Since the source address is virtual, the real address for the local device or traffic processor are not sent to the remote location. If the remote location sends a return message, the return message will be directed to the virtual address. The network server receives the return message, and using the virtual address information, redirects the message to the real address for the traffic processor in a secure fashion. The traffic processor sets the address on the message to show it was sent from the remote destination, and forwards the message to the local device.

Isotonic-isometric haptic feedback interface

A force feedback interface having isotonic and isometric control capability coupled to a host computer that displays a graphical environment such as a GUI. The interface includes a user manipulatable physical object movable in physical space, such as a mouse or puck. A sensor detects the object's movement and an actuator applies output force on the physical object. A mode selector selects isotonic and isometric control modes of the interface from an input device such as a physical button or from an interaction between graphical objects. Isotonic mode provides input to the host computer based on a position of the physical object and updates a position of a cursor, and force sensations can be applied to the physical object based on movement of the cursor. Isometric mode provides input to the host computer based on an input force applied by the user to the physical object, where the input force is determined from a sensed deviation of the physical object in space. The input force opposes an output force applied by the actuator and is used to control a function of an application program, such as scrolling a document or panning or zooming a displayed view. An overlay force, such as a jolt or vibration, can be added to the output force in isometric mode to indicate an event or condition in the graphical environment.

Method and system for automating issue resolution in manufacturing execution and material control systems

Automatic error recovery systems and methods for automated manufacturing plants and factories are disclosed. Such facilities normally have multiple automated control systems, including an automated material handling system (AMHS), all of which run automatically, typically under the control of a computerized manufacturing execution system (MES). The disclosed issue resolution (ISR) systems and methods involve providing components, which may be supervised and operated by an issue resolution management (ISRM) system, if desired, that interfaces with the MES, AMHS, and/or production control system(s) which operate the tools and other stations within the automated factory. The components, which may be considered customized logic cells, may each be written for handling a specific kind of incoming error condition, problem or other issue that might occur and which is amenable to automatic resolution or recovery. These errors often occur between or across the boundaries of the various interactive systems and automated equipment. Each cell may cycle through a sequence of possible error resolution or recovery steps until the specific issue is resolved or until the sequence of steps is exhausted. Other components of the ISR system may provide results-oriented messages and/or facilitate the collection of data as to whether and which corrective commands from the ISR system resolved the reported error conditions automatically. The disclosed ISR systems and methods for resolving errors and other issues automatically helps improve the overall productivity of automated factories by reducing downtime and the need for human intervention to correct problems, thereby increasing factory throughput.

Method and system for triage of emergency patients

A method and system for automated patent intake and triage in the context of an emergency care center is provided. The system consists of a kiosk computer terminal, which is placed in a receiving area within the emergency treatment center and preferably includes a touch screen interface, a variety of physiological monitoring devices and software that collects and assesses the user input and physiological data to calculate the severity of the patient's condition. This allows automated triage and prioritization of patients thereby freeing health care professional resources to perform other patient care functions.

System and method for facilitating exchange of escrowed funds

An electronic escrowed funds transfer system includes an escrow server in communication with a request client and a resource control client. The escrow server may include a funds management module to process and track funds being held in escrow, a resource management module to process a resource modification request, and a data repository module to store information relating to the request client, the resource control client, a resource to be modified, and / or the resource modification request. The resource modification request may be received by the escrow server and may include information relating to a location of the resource to be modified, an amount of funds to be paid for a modification of the resource, and / or a condition associated with the modification of the resource. The resource management module may transmit a notification upon receipt of the funds to the resource control client that a funded modification request has been received, and the resource management module may monitor a status of the modification of the resource to be modified to ensure that the condition has been met. The resource management module is in communication with the funds management module to release the funds to the resource control client upon determining that the condition has been met.

Aerosol generating device with battery indication

An aerosol generating device comprising a vaporiser configured to vaporise an aerosol-forming substrate; a battery connected to the vaporiser; a control circuit for controlling the supply of power from the battery to the vaporiser; a memory for storing a usage record of the device; and a replacement indicator for signalling to a user. The control circuit is configured to compare a measured voltage across the battery to a threshold voltage and to generate an error signal to update the usage record if the measured voltage is less than the threshold voltage during an operation cycle. The control circuit is configured to access the usage record and to activate the replacement indicator depending on the status of the usage record.
