Abstract

Differential dynamic content delivery including providing a session document for a presentation including a session grammar and a session structured document, the session structured document including a classified structural element for a first user who will not attend a presentation and a classified structural element for a second user who will attend the presentation; receiving, during the presentation, presentation control instructions controlling the presentation; selecting during the presentation classified structural elements for the second user in dependence upon the presentation control instructions and user classifications of the second user; presenting to the second user during the presentation the selected classified structural elements for the second user; selecting, after the presentation, classified structural elements for the first user in dependence upon the recorded presentation control instructions and the user classifications of the first user; and presenting after the presentation the classified structural elements selected for the first user.

Claims

1. A method for differential dynamic content delivery, the method comprising:

creating a presentation document, including;

creating, in dependence upon an original document, a structured document comprising one or mare structural elements;

classifying a structural element of the structured document according to a presentation attribute; and

creating a presentation grammar for the structured document, wherein the presentation grammar for the structured document includes grammar elements each of which includes an identifier for at least one structural element of the structured document;

creating a session document from the presentation document, including;

identifying a presentation document for a presentation, the presentation document including a presentation grammar and a structured document having structural elements classified with classification identifiers;

identifying a user participant for the presentation, the user having a user profile comprising user classifications; and

filtering the structured document in dependence upon the user classifications of a first user who will not attend a presentation, the user classifications of a second user who will attend the presentation, and the classification identifiers;

providing a session document for a presentation including a session grammar and a session structured document, the session structured document including a classified structural element for the first user and a classified structural element for the second user who will attend the presentation;

creating a presentation control instruction, including;

receiving from a user participating in the presentation a key phrase and optional parameters for invoking a presentation action; and

parsing the key phrase and parameters against a voice response grammar into a presentation control instruction;

wherein;

each presentation control instruction includes a presentation action identifier and optional parameters; and

receiving, during the presentation, presentation control instructions controlling the presentation;

recording, during the presentation, the presentation control instructions controlling the presentation, wherein each recorded presentation control instruction has an associated time stamp;

selecting during the presentation classified structural elements for the second user in dependence upon the presentation control instructions and user classifications of the second user, wherein selecting during the presentation classified structural elements for the second user in dependence upon the presentation control instructions and user classifications of the second user further comprises selecting a classified structural element in dependence upon the presentation action identifier and the parameters;

presenting to the second user during the presentation the selected classified structural elements for the second user;

selecting, after the presentation, classified structural elements for the first user in dependence upon the presentation control instructions and the user classifications of the first user, wherein selecting, after the presentation, classified structural elements for the first user in dependence upon the recorded presentation control instructions and the user classifications of the first user further comprises selecting a classified structural element in dependence upon the presentation action identifier and the parameters; and

presenting after the presentation the classified structural elements selected for the first user.
