A universal language translator automatically translates a spoken word or phrase between two speakers. The translator can lock onto a speaker and filter out ambient noise so as to be used in noisy environments, and to ensure accuracy of the translation when multiple speakers are present. The translator can also synthesize a speaker's voice into the dialect of the other speaker such that each speaker sounds like they're speaking the language of the other. A dialect detector could automatically select target dialects either by auto-sensing the dialect by listening to aspects of each speaker's phrases, or based upon the location of the device.

A method of communicating a message between an automotive device of an automotive control area network and a non-automotive, industrial device of a non-automotive, fieldbus network includes receiving a message of a source format from one of the automotive device of the automotive control area network and the non-automotive, industrial device of the non-automotive, fieldbus network; translating the message of the source format to a common language format; processing the message of a common language format via a set of stored, configurable rules; translating the processed message of a common language format to a destination message format; and delivering the message in the appropriate destination format to one of the automotive device and the non-automotive, industrial device.

A method and system for capturing emotional preference of human subjects, generating machine-readable emotional code and using the code to optimize computerized searching and matching operations between entities is disclosed. The entity can be a human user, a product, or a service. The emotional code can thus be a universal language expressing human emotion that communicates among entities. After understanding the sending parties' emotional profile, the receiving party can adapt its operation to achieve more optimum results.

In addition, the controller is configured to apply a general language model and at least one dialect language model to the input data to perform speech recognition by dynamically selecting between the models in accordance with each of the identified portions.

An example system and method for securing computer code of a dynamic Domain Specific Language (DSL) that leverages a General Purpose Language (GPL). An example method includes enhancing compile-time security enforcement functionality for computer code written using the DSL, in part by using a compiler to perform static analysis on the DSL computer code. The static analysis includes referencing a security policy defining one or more unacceptable program behaviors; and indicating when execution of the computer code would result in performance of the one or more unacceptable program behaviors based on results of the static analysis.

Disclosed are implementations of methods and systems for displaying definitions and translations of words by searching for a translation simultaneously in various languages according to a query in a general language dictionary. The invention removes the need to specify a source language for the word or word combination when translated into a target language. The target language may be preset. Translation is possible for word combinations in multiple sources languages. Source words may be entered manually or captured by an imaging component of an electronic device. When captured, a word combination is selected, and subjected to optical character recognition (OCR) and translation. Source language and OCR language may be suggested via geolocation of the electronic device.

Strings entered into a computer system are converted to a common language. The process of converting strings to a common language comprises determining a user-selected target language, associating a user-selected primary input language with the target language and associating a user-selected secondary input language with the target language. The process further comprises obtaining a string of at least one character, converting the obtained string from the primary input language to the target language if the obtained string corresponds to a valid string in the primary input language and converting the obtained string from the secondary input language to the target language if the obtained string corresponds to a valid string in the secondary input language and is not a valid string in the primary input language.

An HDL simulator having an automated interface to compiled or interpreted application code written in a general purpose language. The interface enables the HDL code to have a direct data access to and from the application code. The simulator automatically maps and converts HDL data types to and from programming language data types, such as the arguments of routine calls or direct data accesses. Further, the simulator provides a programming language calling mechanism and automatically does data type mapping of arguments, which enables the HDL to call application code routines compiled with a standard compiler, and enables such routines to call functions in the HDL. The simulator automatically generates wrappers for the interface which automatically map data types for direct data access when the application code is compiled, and can output messages upon the occurrence of calls or returns. The automatically generated wrappers also provide automatic threading, which enables compiled application code to call tasks in the HDL.

The present invention describes an efficient and fast framework for implementing table-valued functions (TVF's) in a relational database server. The framework provides desirable extensibility properties and has the ability to minimize performance degradations by integrating tightly with the optimization infrastructure in a query processor. The present invention also enables a managed execution environment (MEE) such as the Common-Language-Runtime (CLR), to efficiently and dynamically extend the logic of the database engine with user-supplied code.

A generic language interface is provided to apply a number of loop optimization transformations. The language interface includes two new directives. The present invention detects the directives in a computer program, and generates code that has been applied at least one loop transformation based on the directives.

An easy-to-use workflow language can be created by extending an existing, common language such as Java. The language can be extended by adding those constructs that are missing but desirable. Such desirable constructs can include parallelism, asynchrony, loops over asynchronous events, and flexible handling of XML. Such constructs can allow a user to define a virtual program using the extended Java syntax. For example, XML can be placed inside a Java class that defines the high-level orchestration logic a workflow should follow. That orchestration logic can refer to the Java class to carry out work, such that the logic to handle an incoming message is really in Java. This description is not intended to be a complete description of, or limit the scope of, the invention. Other features, aspects, and objects of the invention can be obtained from a review of the specification, the figures, and the claims.

The one or more common language messages can be sent to one or more end devices of one or more different device types. The common language messages can be translated to a format specific to one or more of the end devices based on the device type.

A method of coordinating communications between a plurality of Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAVs) operating in connection with differing communication languages. A common language is provided which includes common language commands and common language data objects. Common language commands are communicated from a user to a plurality of UAVs through a UAV Interoperability Agent (UIA), which converts the common language commands to UAV-specific commands which can be understood by the specific UAV. Additionally, UAVs send data in a native platform format to the UIA, which converts the native platform data to common language format for collection and interpretation by the user.
