Querying a database using open source voice control software
Fri, 16 May 2008 08:00:00 GMT
Though the tools for voice control and dictation in the open source world lag far behind those in the commercial arena, I decided to see how far I could get in querying a database by voice and having the computer respond verbally. Using a number of open source tools, I'm happy to report success.
Hi all,
I'm prepared exploring cloud technology to play on both private and public clouds. Please advise which of the following Open Source Cloud software, other than Ubuntu One, will be more powerful on features:-

All,
I am looking for some open source database and graphing software to plot some MIB performance data on a Solaris server. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Device::Modem::UsRobotics - USR modems extensions to control self-mode
SYNOPSIS
use Device::Modem::UsRobotics;
my $modem = new Device::Modem::UsRobotics( port => '/dev/ttyS1' );
$modem->connect( baudrate => 9600 );
my %info = $modem->messages_info();
print "There are $info{unreleased_voice_msg} unread voice messages on $info{stored_voice_msg} total
";
print "There are $info{unreleased_fax_msg} unread fax messages on $info{stored_fax_msg} total
";
# Get details about message n. X
my %msg = $modem->message_info(1);
index type information attributes status day hour minute
callerid page addresshigh addresslow checksum
print 'This is a ', ($msg{type} == 2 ? 'voice' : 'fax'), 'message', "
";
print 'It came from no. ', $msg{callerid}, "
";
# ...
# Now clear all messages
$modem->clear_memory();
WARNING
This module is not documented yet, and it is a rough work in progress. Until now, it correctly reads voice/fax messages information, but
when saving voice messages to disk, sometimes they are incorrectly decoded.
So, if you need a working program, check out the good old TkUsr by Ludovic Drolez, unless you want to help develop
Device::Modem::UsRobotics.
DOCS TO BE COMPLETED FROM NOW.....
Yes, I'm a bad boy :-)
DESCRIPTION
Bla Bla Bla...
METHODS
clear_memory()
Used to permanently clear the memory space of the modem. There are separate memory spaces, one for voice/fax messages and one for user set-
tings. Examples:
$modem->clear_memory('user'); # or $modem->clear_memory(1)
$modem->clear_memory('messages'); # or $modem->clear_memory(2)
To clear both, you can use:
$modem->clear_memory('all'); # or $modem->clear_memory(0);
Parameters:
$memtype
String or integer that selects the type of memory to be cleared, where 0 is for "all", 1 is for "user" memory, 2 is for "messages" mem-
ory.

module or for any kind of commercial support you may need.
