SMS+4D: short message service plus 4-dimensional context
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method of a Short Message Service (SMS) comprising:
- parsing a Short Message with a server;
generating a Context Metadata of the Short Message by any set of the following;
attaching a current Global Positioning System (‘
GPS’
) location of a Mobile Device as the Context Metadata;
attaching a current timestamp as the Context Metadata;
attaching an image as the Context Metadata;
attaching a file as the Context Metadata;
attaching a referent to a prior Short Message as the Context Metadata;
explicitly associating the Context Metadata to the Short Message;
wherein a Server includes a Cultural Database containing the prior Short Message including a token and a word structure pattern, and the step of processing the Short Message through the Server further comprises;
comparing each indeterminate token in the Short Message against the tokens contained in the Cultural Database to find a match according to a specified threshold;
comparing the word structure pattern of the Short Message against the word structure patterns contained in the Cultural Database to find the match according to the specified threshold; and
,using the match according to a specified threshold of each indeterminate token and word structure pattern of the Short Message to establish a translation linkage between the Short Message and Context Metadata;
incorporating into the Short Message a recoverable form of at least one of an explicit trace of a translation linkage, an ordered listing of alternative linkages, an association-strength measurement of the translation linkage between the Context Metadata and the Short Message and a query-for-accuracy value of a linkage; and
incorporating to the Short Message in a recoverable form upon request, of at least one of the explicit trace of the translation linkage, an ordered listing of alternative linkages, the association-strength measurement of the translation linkage, and the query-for-accuracy value of the linkage.

Abstract
A Short Message Service (SMS) enables a sender to send an asynchronous short text message from his source device to one or more receiving devices specified by the sender that represent one or more recipients. SMS+4D embeds, and allows the recipient to elicit contextual and explanatory information concerning the meaning of the short text message from the SMS, thus creating ‘sideband’ capability for text messages analogous to the visual and aural cues from accompanying facial and body expressiveness and the tone, timbre, pitch, and timing of a spoken message. SMS+4D may also learn, through embedded formal analysis and pattern comprehension, to associate specific contextual information to support the sender'"'"'s original meaning, thereby clarifying surficially indefinite text words, phrases, or structures.

2. A computer-implemented method of a Short Message Service (SMS) comprising:
-
parsing a Short Message with a server; generating a Context Metadata of the Short Message by any set of the following; attaching a current Global Positioning System (‘
GPS’
) location of a Mobile Device as the Context Metadata;attaching a current timestamp as the Context Metadata; attaching an image as the Context Metadata; attaching a file as the Context Metadata; attaching a referent to a prior Short Message as the Context Metadata; explicitly associating the Context Metadata to the Short Message; wherein a Server includes a Cultural Database containing the prior Short Message including a token and a word structure pattern, and the step of processing the Short Message through the Server further comprises; comparing each indeterminate token in the Short Message against the tokens contained in the Cultural Database to find a match according to a specified threshold; comparing the word structure pattern of the Short Message against the word structure patterns contained in the Cultural Database to find the match according to the specified threshold; and
,using the match according to a specified threshold of each indeterminate token and word structure pattern of the Short Message to establish a translation linkage between the Short Message and Context Metadata; having a user identify a part of the Short Message that is not understood by the user; applying a deconstructive linkage that is attained through a linguistic assignment method to the Short Message; using a mapping technique to connect the context metadata to the part of the Short Message that is not understood by the user; returning the Short Message with the mapped contextual metadata to the user; and
,repeating the above steps on the user'"'"'s request to perform an alternative mapping; correcting a directionality of any such prior message; searching for any linkage between the Context Metadata and the part of the Short Message that is not understood by the user in a prior exchange; and
,performing the mapping if a linkage is found in a prior message.
