Programmable interface for computer system peripheral circuit card

TL;DR: In this article, a virtual assistant uses context information to supplement natural language or gestural input from a user, which helps to clarify the user's intent and reduce the number of candidate interpretations of user's input, and reduces the need for the user to provide excessive clarification input.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a memory subsystem comprising at least two semiconductor devices (15, 16, 17), including at least one memory device connected to a bus (18), where the bus includes a plurality of bus lines for carrying substantially all address, data and control information needed by said memory devices, where the control information includes device-select information and the bus has substantially fewer bus lines than the number of bits in a single address.

TL;DR: In this paper, a method for building an automated assistant includes interfacing a service-oriented architecture that includes a plurality of remote services to an active ontology, where the active ontologies includes at least one active processing element that models a domain.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a method for automatically determining whether a digital assistant application has been separately invoked by a user without regard to whether a user has separately invoked the application.

TL;DR: In this article, the outputs from a field programmable AND gate array are connected, non-programmably, to specified OR gates for greater architectural and operational flexibility, registered outputs, internal feedback, input/output pin interchangeability, and means for allowing performance of arithmetical, as well as logic, operations, are provided.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a microprocessor-controlled interface for allowing any digital host computer to receive serial digital data from any instrument wherein (a) the time at which data from the instrument is to enter the host computer, and (b) the logical structure of the digital data entering a host computer are controlled by instructions from the computer to the microprocessor and wherein physical formatting incompatibilities between the host computers and the instrument and (c) the communicating of prohibited characters from the instruments to the computer and vice versa are avoided.

TL;DR: An all digital TDMA dynamic channel allocated satellite communications system and method provides a satellite communications network between geographically separated nodes as mentioned in this paper, the topology of the network is controlled by an on-line master node in accordance with user demands and operator commands received from the nodes in the network.

TL;DR: A memory for use in a digital data system stores n-bit words, and provides for accessing any group of n contiguous bits, regardless of whether aligned on an n-bits boundary as discussed by the authors.
