Method and system for sharing speech processing resources over a communication network
First Claim
1. A method for providing speech processing services comprising acts of:
- receiving, by a server comprising at least one processor, a speech processing request from one of a plurality of clients;
identifying one media protocol type of the received speech processing request from among a plurality of media protocol types, wherein the plurality of media protocol types include a real-time protocol for data received over a public switched telephone network, a real-time protocol for high-quality dictation data received over a network, a real-time voice over internet protocol, and a non-real time protocol; and
adapting, at least in part, a speech resource by setting decoding logic for the speech resource in accordance with the identified media protocol type identified in the speech processing request.

Abstract
A method and system (40) for sharing speech processing resources (54) over a (communication network (21) for handling multiple client types (100, 101, etc.) and multiple media protocol types. The system can include a router (400) coupled to the communication network, a speech response system (500) coupled to the router, and a server (600) coupled to the speech response system and the router. The server can include at least one processor programmed to determine a media protocol and a client type of a client used for speech communication with the server, adapt at least one among encoding or decoding for the speech communication based on the media protocol and the client type, and dynamically and adaptively configure of the speech processing resources based on the media protocol and the client type.

12. At least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium comprising computer-readable instructions that when executed by at least one processor cause the at least one processor to execute acts of:
-
receiving, by a server comprising at least one processor, a speech processing request from one of a plurality of clients; identifying one media protocol type of the received speech processing request from among a plurality of media protocol types, wherein the plurality of media protocol types include a real-time protocol for data received over a public switched telephone network, a real-time protocol for high-quality dictation data received over a network, a real-time voice over internet protocol, and a non-real time protocol; and adapting, at least in part, a speech resource by setting decoding logic for the speech resource in accordance with the identified media protocol type identified in the speech processing request. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)

23. A system for providing speech processing comprising:
-
a server comprising at least one processor, the server configured to receive speech processing requests from a plurality of clients, and upon receiving a speech processing request from one of the plurality of clients, to identify one media-protocol type of the received speech processing request from among a plurality of media protocol types, wherein the plurality of media protocol types include a real-time protocol for data received over a public switched telephone network, a real-time protocol for high-quality dictation data received over a network, a real-time voice over internet protocol, and a non-real time protocol; and a speech resource configured to be adapted, at least in part, by the server by setting decoding logic for the speech resource in accordance with the identified media protocol type identified in the speech processing request. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35)
