Abstract: In one aspect, the present disclosure describes a process for maintaining file allocation tables (FATs) for a volume of storage medium. The process includes triggering, by a write operation, modification of data in an existing sector of a data file by writing of data to a new sector of the storage medium. The process also includes writing revised used/unused sector information into one FAT and setting a variable indicative of a number of FATs (NOF) to a first value. The process additionally includes copying the one FAT to another FAT and re-setting the variable to a second value.

Abstract translation: 在一个方面，本发明描述了一种用于维护一卷存储介质的文件分配表（FAT）的过程。 该过程包括通过写入操作来通过将数据写入存储介质的新扇区来触发数据文件的现有扇区中的数据的修改。 该过程还包括将经修改的已使用/未使用的扇区信息写入一个FAT并将指示FAT（NOF）的数量的变量设置为第一值。 该过程另外包括将一个FAT复制到另一个FAT并将该变量重新设置为第二值。

Abstract: A method and system for collecting contextual information in order to provide a requested service is provided. A service provider and a user may exchange a conversation and/or contextual information relating to a service over a communication channel. Based on the received user contextual information, the server may determine an appropriate source for obtaining more information relating to the requested service from the user. The server contacts the appropriate source and obtains information from it. Additionally, the server identifies the user interfaces for collecting more information relating to the requested service from the user. The server may transmit a set of contextual information, such as embedded instructions for invoking the user interfaces on a user's device, over the communication channel. While the user interacts with the user interfaces, new user's contextual information may be obtained by the server.

Abstract: Structured hierarchies for communicating contextual information relating to a VoIP conversation are provided. The structured hierarchies are utilized for efficient communications of various amounts and types of contextual information over a VoIP conversation channel. Information identifying at least one structured hierarchy, which will be used to carry the contextual information, is transmitted during establishment of a conversation between two VoIP enhanced devices and prior to the exchange of contextual information. The structural hierarchy is selected from a set of predefined and declared structured hierarchies. Subsequently transmitted contextual information exchanged between two VoIP enhanced devices is represented in accordance with the identified structural hierarchy. Additionally, the structural hierarchies can be extensible by the addition of more definitions to the current structural hierarchies.

Abstract: A method and system provides the ability to share access information for external data over a digital voice communication channel. The access information of external data may be exchanged instead of the external data itself. More specifically, a recipient device may receive contextual information which relates to the access information of external data. The contextual information may be processed to identify the source of the external data and other information necessary to access the external data. For example, a hyperlink directed to the external data in a Web server may be exchanged while the recipient device and the sending device are involved in a digital conversation. The recipient device can access the external data by activating the hyperlink.

Abstract translation: 方法和系统提供通过数字语音通信信道共享外部数据的访问信息的能力。 可以交换外部数据的访问信息而不是外部数据本身。 更具体地，接收者设备可以接收与外部数据的访问信息有关的上下文信息。 可以处理上下文信息以识别外部数据的源和访问外部数据所需的其他信息。 例如，可以在接收设备和发送设备参与数字会话期间交换针对Web服务器中的外部数据的超链接。 收件人设备可以通过激活超链接来访问外部数据。

Abstract: Aspects of the present invention are directed at software systems for sending a data item from a sending client to a receiving client. In accordance with one embodiment, software components are provided that include a command handling component and a processing component. The command handling component accepts event data when a command to send a data item is received. Then a request to present the data item is transmitted from the sending client to the receiving client. When the request is received, the processing component uses instructions transmitted from the sending client to cause the data item to be presented on the receiving client.

Abstract: A system that determines where a particular XIP component is stored on a non-linearly addressable storage medium and loads the component into RAM for execution, providing the ability to demand page specific components at will from storage media, frees up working RAM on memory constrained devices. A Binary File System uses a generic block driver component that loads the XIP code from a block based storage medium. Features of the file system include the ability to load pre-“fixed up” components from a block based device. The invention thus allows an operating system to load code that was previously Executed In Place (XIP) from a block-oriented device.

Abstract: A method and system for processing contextual information relating to an exchange of a conversation over a communication channel is provided. Several users, and/or service providers are allowed to specify a set of rules relating to a conversation channel. Contextual information, including information relating to the specified set of rules and conditions of the users, is exchanged among the users and/or several service providers when one user requests to initiate a communication channel. The received contextual information is processed to extract a set of rules and the current conditions of users. If the current conditions of the users satisfy the set of rules, a corresponding communication channel is established among the users. However, additional contextual information may be received and processed whenever there is a change in the contextual information during the conversation. Appropriate actions to the existing communication channel may be determined based on the changes.

Abstract translation: 提供了一种用于处理与通信通道上的对话交换有关的上下文信息的方法和系统。 允许几个用户和/或服务提供商指定与会话信道相关的一组规则。 当一个用户请求启动通信信道时，在用户和/或若干服务提供商之间交换包括与指定的一组规则和条件有关的信息的上下文信息。 处理收到的上下文信息以提取一组规则和用户的当前条件。 如果用户的当前条件满足规则集，则在用户之间建立相应的通信信道。 然而，只要在会话期间上下文信息发生变化，就可以接收和处理附加的上下文信息。 可以基于变化来确定对现有通信信道的适当动作。

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method and system for broadcasting a message to selected devices. More specifically, the method and system identifies appropriate VoIP devices of a recipient client suitable for a broadcast message and transmits the broadcast message to the identified appropriate VoIP devices over a digital communication channel. The appropriate VoIP devices are selected in accordance with various constraints of broadcasting such as recipient client's preference, functionality and capability of the recipient VoIP device, broadcaster's bandwidth, a set of broadcasting rules, or the like. In order to identify appropriate VoIP devices or a recipient client, the information relating to the recipient client and VoIP devices may be exchanged using the digital communication channel.

Abstract: A method and system for processing received VoIP data packets based on preferences of a recipient client or capabilities of a recipient computing device is provided. Several users and/or service providers are allowed to specify rules instructing how to process contextual information upon receipt of the contextual information. More specifically, a recipient computing device may have contextual processing rules specified based on its individual need and capability. The contextual processing rules may indicate what application can be used on a certain type of contextual information. Based on the contextual processing rules, the contextual information may be stored in local storage of the recipient computing device or forwarded to another device. In this manner, each recipient computing device of the recipient client can process contextual information based on its need and capability.
