System and method for creating custom specific text and emotive content message response templates for textual communications

Aspects of the invention present a system and methods to analyze textual communications, which include cognitive as well as emotive content. Generally accepted communication models and principles are used to create communication unique response templates which responders can use to complete a comprehensive, thoughtful, emotively validating response message. An embodiment is comprised of parsing and tokenizing the textual communication into the parts of speech, selecting subject matter from the tokenized parts of speech, fetching starter sentence string fragments from pre-stored data structures, concatenating the fragment strings with selected subject matter or emotive content into grammatical response sentence fragment strings, opening a response file or output device into which synthesized starter response sentence string fragments are written, such that the application systematically processes the complete textual communication and synthesizes communication unique response templates populated with response sentence string fragments in accordance with effective communication principles.

Method for communicating confidential, educational information

A method for receiving, processing, and responding to requests relating to educational degree, enrollment, transcript, and loan information via secured and non-secured channels. In a disclosed embodiment, a requestor submits an order to verify degree or enrollment information consisting of a student's first name, last name, and / or social security number. A computer at a Clearinghouse matches the order with data compiled from participating educational institutions and generates a response. Enrollment information can include both current attendance and historical information. Optionally, degree information can be maintained in a separate database. Requestors can also order up-to-date student transcripts via the Clearinghouse.

Bi-directional beacon information system

An autonomous vehicle is equipped with a beacon, preferably including a transmitter and receiver, or a transceiver, for bi-directional communication, which is programmed to interact with other beacons for the exchange of contextual travel information to assist in autonomous operation of the vehicle. Beacons may be stationary and positioned along a roadway such that a signal transmitted by such a stationary beacon can be received by a passing beacon-equipped vehicle, the operation of which can be adjusted depending on instructions received from the stationary beacon. The vehicle can also transmit information to the stationary beacon, which information can be used to assess traffic conditions to thereafter adjust information and alerts sent to other beacon-equipped vehicles. Beacons located within multiple vehicles may also interact to share information that may be used by individual vehicles to adjust or maintain the autonomous operation of the vehicle.

Failure recovery apparatus, failure recovery method, manager, and program

The failure knowledge storage 5 stores failure knowledge information describing countermeasure command selection information, of which a diversion to a failure other than failures described in a failure countermeasure rule in the rule storage 2 can be surmised. When the failure occurring in the service executor 11 matches the failure described in the failure countermeasure rule, the countermeasure retriever 3 executes the countermeasure command in the failure countermeasure rule on the service executor 11. It is decided whether or not a failure other than the failures described in the failure countermeasure rule matches a failure described in the failure knowledge information in the failure knowledge storage 5. When there is a match, the countermeasure command is read out of the rule storage 2 based on the selection information of the matched failure knowledge information and is executed on the service executor 11.

Data processing system for instrumental analysis, server and data processing method

A server receiving instruction of data analysis processing executes the analysis processing, generates a report using the processing result, and then converts the report document into a PDF file and copies the file into a predetermined folder of a PC of the processing instruction source. When an operator instructs print out with a PC at hand, a report of a PDF format is printed out by a function of a printer driver installed in the PC. Thus, the server does not participate in print out processing at all, load is not imposed on the server, and also there is no need for the server to have a printer driver for a printer connected to each of the PCs.

Methods and apparatus to selectively monitor uplink preemptive indication for supplementary uplink and non-supplementary uplink carriers

ActiveUS20200359447A1Save signaling overheadReducing uplink transmission powerTransmission path divisionSignal allocationCarrier signalReal-time computing
Aspects are provided allowing for selective monitoring of uplink cancellation indication (ULCI) occasions by UEs and allowing UEs to determine from ULCI whether canceled uplink transmission are carried on non-supplementary uplink (NUL) carriers or supplementary uplink (SUL) carriers. A UE may determine not to monitor a ULCI occasion if it does not have an uplink transmission which can be punctured by higher priority data. When the uplink transmission is dynamically scheduled, the UE may determine to monitor a ULCI occasion if the UE receives the uplink grant a certain number of symbols earlier than the ULCI occasion. The base station may configure blocks in downlink control information to indicate the UE should apply ULCI to SUL and / or NUL. The base station may configure the UE to perform different behaviors after receiving a ULCI depending on whether the portion of the uplink transmission to be canceled is on SUL or NUL.

Method and System for Computer-Based Assessment Including a Search and Select Process

A system and method for computer based assessment in which at least one question prompt is displayed and means for a user to enter at least one search query is provided. Potential answers that are deemed relevant to entered search queries are displayed to the user and may be selected to form all or part of the user's answer. Because users select pre-determined potential answers, rather than construct answers, appropriate feedback and a mark score can be determined simply and unambiguously. Because potential answers are only displayed in response to a relevant search query being entered, users cannot simply recognize a potential answer as being correct without first having actively searched for it, and the set of potential answers for a question can be relatively large as only the subset that are relevant to a search query are displayed for selection at any one time.
