DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0029] This disclosure details an implementation of apparatuses, methods, and systems for a digital conversation value exchange platform (hereinafter, "DCM- Platform"). The DCM-Platform implements an application whereby virtual commodities such as digital conversation assets are created, evaluated and traded. In one embodiment, the DCM-Platform may capture and examine conversations between individuals and artificial intelligence conversation agents. These agents may be viewed as assets. One can measure the value and performance of these agents by assessing their performance and ability to generate revenue from prolonging conversations and/or ability to effect sales through conversations with individuals. In one implementation, the DCM-Platform may initiate an exchange procedure by collecting required information for the exchange, and determine a pricing index for the digital conversation asset to be traded. [0030] In one embodiment, a Robot Operating System (ROS) may be employed for both consumer robots and other intelligent devices. For example, in one implementation, the DCM-Platform may employ ROS as a platform to manage intelligence hardware abstraction, consumer interfacing, low-level device control, implementation of controlling and recording consumer conversations, message-passing between processes, application package management, and/or the like. [0031] In one embodiment, the DCM-Platform may specify, store and manage interactive voice dialogue between a consumer and an artificial intelligence agent in formats such as, but not limited to, VoiceXML (VXML), and/or the like. For 1 example, in one implementation, a VXML document may take a form similar to the
2 following:
3 <vxml versi on="2 . 0 " xmlns-"http : / /www . ebs i te . org/2001 /vxml " >
4 <form>
5 <block>
6 <prompt>
7 What is your favorite ice-cream f lavor?
8 < /prompt>
9 </block>
10 </ form>
1f </vxml >
12 [0032] In one embodiment, the DCM-Platform may establish and manage
13 consumer interactions via a virtual world platform. u [0033] In one embodiment, the DCM-Platform may employ mobile
15 operating systems (Mobile OS) to control mobile devices within embodiments of the
16 DCM-Platform operation. For example, in one implementation, Mobile OS such as, but
17 not limited to, Google Android, Windows Mobile, iPhone OS, Symbian OS, and/or the 1a like, may be employed.
19 [0034] It is to be understood that, depending on the particular needs and/or
20 characteristics of a DCM-Platform application, associated security data sources,
21 associated operating system, user interface, object, administrator, server, hardware
22 configuration, network framework, and/or the like, various embodiments of the
23 DCM-Platform may be implemented that enable a great deal of flexibility and
24 customization. The instant disclosure discusses embodiments of the DCM-Platform
25 primarily within the context of digital conversation value exchange. However, it is to
26 be understood that the system described herein may be readily
27 configured/customized for a wide range of other applications or implementations.
28 For example, aspects of the DCM-Platform may be adapted for general virtual 1 commodity management, pricing and exchange, and/or the like.

3 [ 035] FIGURE 1 shows a block diagram illustrating DCM-Platform and affiliated entities 100 within embodiments of the DCM-Platform. Within various
5 embodiments, one or more consumers I02(a)-(d), consumer device(s) ioi(a)-(d),
6 artificial intelligence (AI) agent(s) I30(a)-(b), DCM-Platform 120, DCM-Platform
7 database(s) 119, a virtual application exchange platform 139, a financial trading a platform 140, distributed external DCM-Platforms 125, DCM-Platform client(s) 135 and
9 DCM-Platform database(s) 119 are shown to interact via various communication
10 channels.
11 [ o o 36 ] In one embodiment, a consumer i02(a)-(d) may operate a variety of
12 consumer devices, such as, but not limited to a cellular phone ioi(a), a smartphone
13 101(b), a computer 101(c), a telephone 101(D) and/or the like, to have a conversation
14 with an AI agent I30(a)-(b). For example, the consumer may talk to the AI agent over
15 the phone, or type texts in an instant messenger, and/or an online chatting platform to
16 communicate with the AI agent.
17 [0037] In one implementation, the AI agent I30(a)-(b) may comprise an is artificial intelligence ROS and/or other intelligent devices. The AI agent may
19 communicate with, and/or be monitored by the DCM-Platform 120, which may employ
20 the AI agent to furnish intelligence hardware abstraction, consumer interfacing, low-
21 level device control, implementation of controlling and recording consumer
22 conversations, message-passing between processes, application package management, and/or the like. For example, in one implementation, the DCM-Platform may retrieve knowledge and dialogue scripts from the DCM-Platform database 119 to generate interactive dialogue steps and scripts, and send it to the AI agent. In one implementation, the DCM-Platform may be implemented within a central server. In alternative implementations, there may be distributed DCM-Platforms 125 to control a cluster of AI agents.
[oo38] In one embodiment, the DCM-Platform may receive interactive dialogues from the AI agents and encapsulate the digital dialogue scripts to generate tradable virtual assets for exchange on a virtual application exchange platform 139, and/ or a financial trading platform 140. In one embodiment, the digital conversation between a consumer and an AI agent may provide information indicating the consumer's preferences and thus useful for new advertising inventory and other forms of revenues for DCM-Platform clients 135. Within embodiments, the digital assets comprising digital dialogue assets may be purchased by DCM-Platform clients and/or knowledge agents 135. For example, a DCM-Platform client may purchase the digital asset to perform data mining to obtain knowledge and information from the digital conversations. In one implementation, the DCM-Platform clients may comprise an AI agent, a DCM-Platform, an advertising company, and/or the like.
[0039] In another implementation, a DCM-Platform may devise marketing plans using AI agents for the DCM-Platform clients, and the DCM-Platform clients may purchase virtual avatar AI advertising service from the DCM-Platform from the virtual application exchange platform 139. For example, a virtual advertising avatar may be employed to communicate with consumers for advertising purposes via a variety of 1 media channels, such as, but not limited to print media 135(a), television 135(b), radio
2 135(c), Internet 135(d), and/or the like.
3 [ 0040 ] In a further implementation, the DCM-Platform 120 may generate
4 tradable financial instruments backed by the virtual assets and facilitate transactions of
5 the financial instruments. In one implementation, the digital assets may be used to
6 generate a variety of financial instruments, such as, but not limited to futures, forwards,
7 options, and/or the like, to be traded on a financial trading platform 140, e.g., the New
8 York Stock Exchange, and/ or the like. For example, investors 144 of the digital assets
9 may purchase stock shares of an AI agent (e.g., a digital asset owner, etc.) via the0 financial trading platform 140, as further illustrated in FIGURES 4A-7D and 8A-8B. 1 [0041] FIGURE 2A shows a block diagram illustrating DCM-Platform data flows2 within embodiments of the DCM-Platform. In one embodiment, a consumer 102 may3 exchange dialogues 205(a)-(b) with an AI agent I30(a)-(b), wherein the AI agent may4 comprise a computer employing an AI robot system. For example, in one5 implementation, a consumer may talk to a robot calling system over his cellular phone s or telephone, and the audio conversation may be recorded and saved as a dialogue7 I05(a)-(b). For another example, a consumer may interact with a robot avatar on an8 instant messenger platform (e.g., iRobot, etc.), an avatar on a social media platform (e.g.,9 Facebook, Linkedln, Twitter, etc.), and the textual dialogue scripts 205(a)-(b) may be0 exchanged and saved. 1 [ 0042] Within implementations, the AI agent may encapsulate one or more saved2 conversation between the consumer and the AI agent to generate a digital asset, which is3 referred to as the conversation asset 2io(a)-(b). When the digital conversation is owned 1 by an AI Agent, one or more conversation asset with related topic may be encapsulated
2 as an AI Entity asset 22o(a)-(b), and the actual digital conversation component is
3 referred to as a Conversation Asset 2io(a)-(b). For example, an AI entity may combine
4 one or more conversations with regard to the same advertising project (e.g., a new
5 product promotion, etc.) as an AI entity asset.
6 [0043] Within various implementations, the AI Entity assets 220(a)-(b) may be
7 sent to the DCM-Platform 120, wherein the DCM-Platform may group the AI Entity
8 assets to form a Portfolio asset 230. In one implementation, the DCM-Platform may
9 group AI entity assets from AI agents employed by the same client, and/or the same
10 advertising project as a Portfolio asset. For example, a number of AI agents, e.g., social
11 media avatars, robot messengers, robot callers, etc., may be employed for a new
12 product's market promotion, and the digital assets from all the AI agents with regard to
13 the product campaign may be grouped as a Portfolio asset. In further implementations,
14 a collection of Portfolio assets may be traded within a trading platform 140 and thus it is
15 known as an Exchange asset 240. For example, Portfolio assets 230 related to similar
16 products may be grouped and traded as an Exchange asset 240. Within
17 implementations, the DCM-Platform may store the Portfolio asset 230 and the
18 Exchange asset 240, and/or the transaction record 245 at the database 119. Examples of
19 types of digital assets, including the conversation assets 2io(2)-(b), AI entity assets
20 22o(a)-(b), portfolio assets 230, exchange assets 250, and/or the like, are further
21 illustrate in FIGURE 2B.
22 [0044] In one implementation, a DCM-Platform client 130 may purchase the
23 digital asset in the form of exchange asset 250 from the trading form, which may be 1 further illustrated in FIGURE 8. In an alternative implementation, exchange assets 250
2 may be traded between AI entities as different asset owners, as further illustrated in
3 FIGURES 4A-7D. In another implementation, investors 144 of the virtual assets may
4 purchase stock shares 217 from the financial trading platform 140, wherein the stock s shares are generated at the DCM-Platform based on the asset information 208
6 submitted by the asset owners 215.
7 [0045] FIGURE 2B provides a block diagram illustrating DCM-Platform data a encapsulations within embodiments of the DCM-Platform. In one embodiment, DM-
9 Platform may create four classes of assets within digital conversations.
10 [0046] In one implementation, the conversation asset 210 may be created to
11 include the dialogue interactions between AI entities and humans, and/or amongst AI
12 entities. In one implementation, an AI entity asset 220 may comprise one ore more
13 conversation 210 and the means, such as intelligence hardware abstraction, consumer
14 interfaces, and/or the like, for conducting digital conversations included in the
15 conversation asset 210. In one implementation, the portfolio asset 230 may include a
16 plurality of AI entity assets and/or the conversation assets, wherein the portfolio asset
17 230 provides a branded vehicle for the accreditation, aggregation and performance of
18 conversation assets and AI entity assets. In a further implementation, the exchange
19 asset 240 may include one or more portfolio assets grouped together to be traded on a
20 public trading platform, wherein the exchange asset 240 provides accreditation,
21 aggregation and performance of portfolio assets 230 within a public or private domain.
22 [0047] For example, in one implementation, an intelligent messenger avatar may
23 interact with consumers on the messaging platform to provide information with regard 1 to hair styling. The conversation scripts between the avatar and one or more consumers
2 may be encapsulated as a package, which forms a conversation asset associated with the
3 intelligent messenger avatar, and the identification information, such as the account
4 information of the avatar account, together with the conversation asset may form an AI
5 entity asset. In one implementation, similar conversations from different AI entities,
6 such as conversations related to a new hair styling product, may be grouped by the
7 DCM- Platform to create a portfolio asset, wherein the portfolio asset may be labeled a and/or associated with the new hair styling product. In one implementation, the hair
9 styling product portfolio asset may be traded with other portfolio assets (e.g., portfolio
10 assets related to other hair treatment products) in a transaction, which may be referred
11 to as the exchange asset in the transaction.
12 [0048] Within embodiments, various data structures, objects, and relational
13 structures may be adopted for creation, storage and implementations of the
14 conversation asset 210, AI entity assets 220, portfolio assets 230 and exchange assets
15 240. For example, in one implementation, an exemplar XML implementation of
16 conversation assets 210 may take a form similar to the following:
17
18 </Title> Joe_Doe_Hair__dresser_0001 </Title>
19 </Description>

32 1 [o 049 ] In one embodiment, DCM-Platform may generate tradable assets based on
2 the digital conversations 251. Within implementations, DCM-Platform may determine
3 dollar values of the digital assets 210-240, monetize the conversation 253, and
4 determine conversation stock shares 252 and conversation index 254 for exchange, as
5 further illustrated in FIGURES 4A-8B.
6 [0050] In one embodiment, as digital conversations may be measurable at the
7 lowest common denominator of a dialogue-step, a digital conversation may be a commoditized as conversation stock 252, which is a tradable instrument. The
9 commoditization is based on encapsulation of the digital conversation script with a0 wrapper that contains all the means for the exchange of value, which is represented as1 conversation monetization 253. Within implementations, DCM-Platform may generate2 a conversation index 254 to monitor the conversation monetization together with the3 digital conversation interactions from an AI end. + [0051] Within implementations, trading prices of conversation assets for5 exchange may be determined by market dynamics (e.g., NYSE index, etc.), which may be6 affected by authorship, ownership and monetization of digital conversation and by7 whether the conversation assets are accredited as part of a branded portfolio. The values may be also influenced by the brand of the exchange chosen for the trading of value.9 Included are past, present and future digital conversation for valuation of conversation0 assets in context to individuals, both in terms of human and artificial intelligence1 entities. In one embodiment, DCM-Platform may assess conversation liquidity and2 generate conversation index, which includes the emergent patterns of conversational3 trends and evolution. 1 [0052] In one embodiment, the methods that affect the pricing of digital
2 conversation assets may further include, but not limited to searches and matches of
3 conversational needs, conversation access rights, conversation events, conversation
4 handoffs, conversational learning loops conversational references and conversational
5 transaction, with the associated rules of engagements for conversation assets including e reputational, ownership transfers, withdrawals or suspension from algorithmic trading,
7 and/or the like.
8 [0053] FIGURE 2C provides a data flow diagram illustrating conversation
9 interactions within one embodiment of the DCM-Platform. Within embodiments, the
10 consumers 102 may interact with AI agents i3o(a)-(b) to engage in a dialogue. The AI
11 agent(s) i30(a)-(b) may provide dialogue actions 205(b) to a consumer 102 via a
12 dialogue platform, and the consumer 102 may submit s dialogue response 205(a) in
13 return. For example, in one implementation, the AI agent i3o(a)(b) may be an avatar
14 identity on a social media platform, such as, but not limited to AOL messenger,
15 Facebook, eBlogger, Linkedln, Twitter, and/or the like, and post a dialogue line via the
16 social media platform, e.g., "would you like a 30% cash-back discount?". The consumer
17 102 may then respond via the social media platform by submitting a line "Yes. What is
18 it?". In one implementation, the conversation between the consumer 102 and the AI
19 agent i3o(a)-(b) may continue in a progressive manner, as further illustrated in
20 FIGURES 10A-11L.
21 [0054] In one implementation, the AI agents i3o(a)-(b) may receive inquiries
22 from the consumer 102 during a dialogue. For example, the consumer may submit a
23 dialogue line "where can I buy a hair dresser with the 30% cash-back discount?" In one 1 implementation, the AI agents may then connect to an Internet search engine, such as,
2 but not limited to Google, Bing, Yahoo, and/or the like, to obtain search results 247
3 from the search engines based on key words 245 search "hair dresser cash back," and/ or
4 the like. s [0055] In one implementation, the AI agents may wrap the recorded digital
6 dialogue scripts with consumers to generate digital assets 255 and submit to the DCM-
7 Platform for trading on an exchange platform. In one implementation, a client 130, a such as an advertising company, etc., may interact with the DCM-Platform 120 to
9 submit a marketing request 250 to employ AI agent for advertising purposes. The
10 DCM-Platform may then devise marketing strategy 260 for the client and deploy the it strategy with AI agents.
12 [0056] For example, in one implementation, a hair dresser manufacturer may
13 request the DCM-Platform devise a marketing strategy for their new hair dresser
14 product. The DCM-Platform may analyze previously stored consumer dialogues, e.g., to
15 extract information related to consumer preferences of hair dressers, etc., and then
16 devise a dialogue application and select AJ agents to implement the application, as
17 further illustrated in FIGURES 10A-11L. is [0057] FIGURE 2D provides a data flow diagram illustrating knowledge
19 accumulation within one embodiment of the DCM-Platform. In one embodiment, the
20 knowledge acquirers 261, e.g., consumers, etc., may interact with AI agents I30(a)(b)
21 through conversation to access contextual branded Just-in-Time high quality knowledge
22 265(a), which maybe free or priced to use. For example, the AI agent(s) may provide
23 information with regard to new products, services, and/or the like, to the knowledge acquirers during the interactive dialogues. For another example, the knowledge acquirers may submit responses to the knowledge received, which in turn provide knowledge 265(b) to the AI agents, such as, but no limited to consumers' ratings, comments of a product, and/ or the like. [ o o 58 ] In one implementation, the knowledge 205(a)-(b) may be wrapped, stored, and/or filtered through dialogue scripts from a knowledge bank 265 database. In one implementation, the knowledge bank database 260 may be a central database maintained by the DCM-Platform. In alternative implementations, the knowledge bank database 260 may comprise a plurality of mutually connected distributed databases. [oo59] m one embodiment, knowledge providers 262 may comprise the consumer brands advertising to disseminate their "knowledge" about their products or services. In one implementation, the knowledge providers 262 may convert their branded procedural knowledge 267 and incorporate them into AI agent applications via the knowledge bank database 260. In another implementation, the knowledge providers 262 may obtain consumer feedbacks from the knowledge bank 260 and/or the AI agents via implementations of the AI agent applications. [0060] In a further implementation, the market may be seeded with AI agent applications containing high quality knowledge across a few consumer products brands, and the DCM-Platform may create and sell advertising tools for User Generated Virtual Agent Apps to accelerate the population of AI agent applications, each containing specific knowledge. For example, the knowledge provider 262 may purchase AI agent application templates to imbue and update their latest product information for advertising with consumers. [0061] Within embodiments, knowledge distributers 263 may comprise Internet search engines, social media platforms, such as, but not limited to Apple, Google, Microsoft, RIM, and/or the like, which have channels to market and would benefit from new revenue streams driven by AI agents. In one implementation, the knowledge distributors 263 may obtain knowledge (e.g., brand/product information) from the knowledge providers. For example, the knowledge provider may post advertisements containing product information 267 on the World Wide Web (www) indexed by the search engines. In another implementation, AI agents may access the knowledge distributors 263 to search and learn knowledge 266. For example, the AI agents may conduct a key-word search on a search engine platform to obtain knowledge for an on- going conversation with a consumer. [ 062] In a further implementation, DCM- Platform may create AI agent application for exchange, e.g., an AI application sold in the Apple iTunes Store, etc.. . In one implementation, the AI agent applications may be connected to the knowledge bank database 260, and further distribution with social network providers such as Yahoo! and Facebook, ad/or the like, may be also linked to the knowledge bank database 260. In one implementation, the knowledge distributors 264 may facilitate knowledge providers 262 to access the knowledge acquirers 261 via knowledge learning by the AI agents. [0063 ] FIGURE 3 provides a logic flow diagram illustrating conversation asset monetization within embodiments of the DCM-Platform. In one embodiment, a consumer may interact with an AI agent to generate customer-AI dialogue 305. For example, in one implementation, the AI agent may operate an autodialer to call a consumer, wherein the audio conversation may be recorded and the audio file may be 1 translated into textual scripts. For another example, the AI agent may manage a social
2 network avatar, e.g., a messenger identity, a Facebook account, etc., and chat with a
3 consumer via the social network platform.
4 [0064] In one implementation, the AI agent may generate conversation assets
5 308 by creating a wrapper encapsulating the conversation scripts with the consumer, as
6 further illustrated in FIGURES 4B-4D. For example, in one implementation, the AI
7 agent may convert one or more textual conversation scripts into a XML file, with & metadata of the conversation scripts, such as, but not limited to ownership information, s- authorship information, and/or the like. In one implementation, the AI agent may0 associate information such as the software implementation packages, operating system1 information, hardware abstraction information, with the generated conversation assets2 to generate AI entity assets 310, as further illustrated in FIGURE 5A-5C. In an3 alternative implementation, the conversation assets and AI entity assets may be4 generated at the DCM-Platform. 5 [0065] Within implementations, the DCM-Platform may receive information of6 the generated conversation assets and AI entity assets and monetize the assets 313,315.7 For example, in one implementation, the DCM-Platform may receive pricing8 information from the owner of the assets, e.g., the AI agents, etc., and price the assets9 accordingly. 0 [0066] In one implementation, the DCM-Platform may group AI entity assets to1 generate portfolio assets 318, e.g., by combining AI entity assets based on related2 conversation topics, related AI entity types, and/ or the like. The generated portfolio3 assets may be monetized 320 for exchange, and/or grouped to generate exchange assets t 325. In one implementation, the DCM-Platform may present the generated asset
2 wrappers, including the conversation assets, AI entity assets, portfolio assets and/or
3 exchange assets to a financial trading platform for trade transactions 345. In one
4 implementation, the DCM-Platform may obtain pricing information of the virtual assets
5 on the market 327, and generate a conversation index 328 based on the supply-demand
6 market characteristics. For example, conversation assets may be priced differently
7 based on its content, topics, volume, client demands, and/or the like.
8 [0067] In one implementation, the DCM-Platform may adjust the conversation
9 monetization via monitoring the conversation index 330 in a loop 335. For example, the0 DCM-Platform may feedback the market prices of conversation assets to an AI agent,1 which is engaged in a conversation with a consumer and may determine a dollar value2 associated with a dialogue step. For example, if the market information indicates3 conversation assets with regard to consumer preferences over "colors of hair highlights"4 are highly demanded, then during the conversation, a consumer dialogue line "I like red5 hair highlights" may be priced with a higher dollar value. 6 [0068] FIGURES 4A provides a block diagram illustrating monetizing digital7 assets between different entities within embodiments of the DCM-Platform. Withins embodiments, digital asset owners, such as an AI agent, an advertising company which9 employs AI agents for advertising services, and/or the like, may monetize their virtual0 assets to generate revenues by determining and selling stock shares to investors. t [0069] For example, in one implementation, the DCM-Platform may determine a2 common denominator for the exchange of value relates to the establishment of a3 conversation asset, e.g., a dollar value associated with a dialogue script, a dialogue 2 !
1 action/line, etc.. In one implementation, the DCM-Platform may facilitate initiation of a
2 conversation asset and the exchange of value between the conversation asset owner
3 408(a), conversation script author(s) 401(a), and conversation asset negotiator(s)
4 405(a), including changes over time. Within implementations, the conversation script
5 author(s) 401(a) may provide conversation scripts 404(a) to the conversation asset
6 owner(s) 408(a), and the asset owner may then allocate conversation asset shares for
7 negotiation 406(a), while the conversation asset negotiator 405(a) may negotiate the s conversation stock transfers 407(a) via the DCM-Platform 120 to an investor 144. The
9 example initiation of conversation assets is further illustrated in FIGURES 4B-4D.
10 [ 0070 ] For another example, as further illustrated in FIGURES 5A-5C the DCM-
11 Platform may facilitate initiation of an AI entity asset and the exchange of value between
12 the AI entity asset owner 408(b), AI entity designer(s) 401(b), and AI entity asset
13 negotiator(s) 405(b), including changes over time. Within implementations, the AI
14 entity designers 401(b) may provide AI entity icons 402(b) to the AI entity asset owner(s)
15 408(b), and the asset owner may then allocate AI asset shares for negotiation 406(b),
16 while the AI entity asset negotiator 405(a) may negotiate the AI entity stock transfers
17 407(b) via the DCM-Platform 120 to an investor 144. is [0071 ] For another example, as further illustrated in FIGURES 6A-6C, the DCM-
19 Platform may facilitate initiation of a portfolio asset and the exchange of value between
20 the portfolio asset owner 408(c), portfolio script author(s) 401(c), and portfolio asset
21 negotiator(s) 405(c), including changes over time. Within implementations, the
22 portfolio script author(s) 401(c) may provide portfolio scripts 404(c) to the portfolio
23 asset owner(s) 408(c), and the asset owner may then allocate portfolio asset shares for negotiation 406(c), while the portfolio asset negotiator 405(c) may negotiate the portfolio stock transfers 407(a) via the DCM-Platform 120 to an investor 144. [0072] For another example, as further illustrated in FIGURES 7A-7C, the DCM- Platform may facilitate initiation of a exchange asset and the exchange of value between the exchange asset owner 408(d), exchange script author(s) 401(d), and exchange asset negotiator(s) 405(d), including changes over time. Within implementations, the exchange script author(s) 401(d) may provide exchange scripts 404(d) to the exchange asset owner(s) 408(d), and the asset owner may then allocate exchange asset shares for negotiation 406(d), while the exchange asset negotiator 405(d) may negotiate the exchange stock transfers 407(d) via the DCM-Platform 120 to an investor 144. [0073 ] FIGURES 4B-4D provide logic flow diagrams illustrating example initiation of a conversation asset within embodiments of the DCM-Platform. [0074 ] In one embodiment, the DCM-Platform or the AI agent may create a conversation asset based on the captured conversation script. Within implementations, conversation assets may be created and developed 411 by the conversation asset owner, e.g., an AI agent, an advertising company, etc., which may be a 1:1 relationship to the conversation asset. The conversation asset owner may be an individual or an organization or a named asset portfolio, and the ownership may be transferred to another person, organization or to a named portfolio. In one implementation, an individual name may be required as the authoritative person to establish. Once the conversation asset owner identity and contact details have been established that person may create a conversation wrapper to establish the conversation asset. [0075] In one embodiment, upon establishment of the conversation asset ownership, the DCM-Platform may launch a conversation asset wrapper, which may be a data package comprising the conversation asset and trade information with regard to the conversation asset, which may have a 1:1 relationship to the conversation asset. Within embodiments, a conversation wrapper may be governed by a set of methods covering all the different parts and interrelationships that are the basis for algorithmic trading for the creation of value of a conversation asset. For example, in one implementation, an exemplar XML implementation of a conversation asset wrapper is discussed in FIGURE 2B. [0076] In one embodiment, the DCM-Platform may define a conversation asset title 413. The conversation wrapper may contain a title of the conversation asset, which is a 1:1 relationship to the conversation asset. For example, the conversation asset owner may be responsible for the conversation title. [0077] In one embodiment, the DCM-Platform may allocate a unique conversation asset global identifier 414 to the conversation wrapper, which is a 1:1 relationship to the conversation asset. The conversation asset global identifier may remain unchanged for the lifetime, including archive, of the conversational asset even if constitution, ownership of the asset changes. [0078] In one embodiment, once the conversation asset global identity has been assigned, the conversation asset status filed in the conversation wrapper may be set 416. For example, if the conversation asset status is set to be "draft," which is a 1:1 relationship to the conversation asset, the "draft" status may indicate the conversation asset is not ready for use in a digital conversation; once the conversation asset status is set to be "production" then the digital conversations are ready to commence. 1 [ o O 7 ] In one embodiment, the DCM-Platform may update the conversation asset
2 wrapper with a description of the conversation asset, which is a 1:1 relationship. For
3 example, the conversation asset owner may compile and edit the conversation description, the person responsible for the conversation description is the conversation
5 asset owner.
& [oo8o] In one embodiment, once the conversation description has been 7 established, the conversation asset ownership may be assigned to the conversation asset a owner 417, which is a 1:1 relationship between conversation asset and the conversation
9 asset owner. In one implementation, the establishment of ownership of the0 conversation asset may determine that the conversation asset having one share, which is1 fully owned by the conversation asset owner. Alternative implementations of2 determining shares are further illustrated in FIGURES 8A-8B.
3 [0081] In one embodiment, the conversation wrapper references the primary4 script author for each conversation script 418, which is a 1:1 relationship. For example,5 the primary script may be the first component used by an AI entity for digital6 conversation.
7 [ O O82] In one implementation, if the conversation asset owner is the author of8 this primary script then the primary script author identity and contact details are9 treated as the same. Otherwise, in alternative implementations, if the conversation0 asset owner is not the same as the primary script owner then the conversation asset1 owner may arrange for the following: define the primary script author identification and2 contact details; ascertain whether the primary script author will be given partial3 ownership of the conversation asset. 1 [0083] In one embodiment, upon assigning a conversation asset negotiator, the
2 conversation asset negotiator may negotiate with the primary script author a percentage
3 of shares to be sold and once determined the asset shares are assigned. The allocation
4 may not be a whole unit and therefore the assignment of conversation shares can be
5 fractional.
s [0084] In one embodiment, if both parties agree on the conversation shares then
7 a conversation stock transfer is undertaken, where an audit trail of the transaction is
8 maintained as part of the conversation asset wrapper. In one embodiment, a primary
9 script author may be replaced by another primary script author 425 and an audit trial is0 maintained of past primary script authors with the conversation wrapper. To change a1 primary script author, the authority may be vested with the person with the2 conversation asset negotiator. If there was a prior agreement with the current primary3 script author to release their conversation shares in the case that they loose their4 primary script author status then the share allocation is removed. If there was no prior5 agreement the current primary script author may agree to release their shares in6 consultation with the conversation asset negotiator. In one implementation, the shares7 withdrawn become part of the audit trail within the conversation asset wrapper. The8 primary script author may wish to retain all or part of their shares. The conversation9 asset negotiator may obtain prior agreement with the conversation asset owner to0 increase the number of conversation shares.
t [oo 85] In one embodiment, the conversation asset owner may ascertain whether a2 conversation asset negotiator is needed, e.g., a third party to negotiate during a3 transaction on their behalf. In an alternative embodiment, the conversation asset owner 1 may be assigned the status of conversation asset negotiator 419, which is a 1:1
2 relationship.
3 [O O 86] In alternative implementations, the asset owner may define conversation
4 asset negotiator identification and contact details. For example, if the conversation asset
5 owner wishes to assign proportional ownership to the conversation asset negotiator then
6 a percentage is determined and the asset shares are assigned 420. The allocation may
7 not be a whole unit and therefore the assignment of shares can be fractional, e.g., a m:m s relationship between the conversation asset shares and the conversation asset
9 negotiator. 0 [0087] In one embodiment, upon negotiation the conversation asset share1 allocation with the primary script author 423, and both parties agree the conversation2 shares then a conversation stock transfer is undertaken 421, where an audit trail of the3 transaction is maintained as part of the conversation asset wrapper. When the stock4 transfer is finished, the conversation asset shares are removed from the primary script5 author 426. 6 [0088] In one embodiment, the DCM-Platform may determine whether there are7 more than 1 primary authors. If there are other script authors, e.g., a l:m relationship8 between the conversation script and the conversation authors 427, the conversation9 wrapper references the other authors for each conversation script. In one0 implementation, if the conversation asset owner is an other script author, the identity1 and contact details are treated as the same. If the conversation asset owner is not the2 same as one of the other script owners or if there are other script authors, then the3 conversation asset owner may define for each other script author identification and contact details; ascertain for each one, whether the other script author will be given partial ownership of the conversation asset.
[ o o 8 ] In one embodiment, the conversation asset negotiator negotiates with the other script author 429 a percentage and once determined the asset shares are assigned and removed from other authors 430. The allocation does not need to be a whole unit and therefore the assignment of conversation shares can be fractional. In one embodiment, once both parties agree the conversation shares then a conversation stock transfer is undertaken, where an audit trail of the transaction is maintained as part of the conversation asset wrapper.
[oo90] In one embodiment, conversation script rights may be assigned to other authors 431, An other script author may be replaced by another other script author and an audit trial is maintained of past other script authors with the conversation wrapper. To change an other script author the authority is vested with the person with the conversation asset negotiator, if there was a prior agreement with the current other script author to release their conversation shares in the case that they loose their other script author status then the share allocation is removed, if there was no prior agreement the current other script author may agree to release their shares in consultation with the conversation asset negotiator. The shares withdrawn become part of the audit trail within the conversation asset wrapper.
[0091] In one implementation, the other script author may desire to retain all or part of their shares. The conversation asset negotiator may obtain prior agreement with the conversation asset owner to increase the number of conversation shares. In an alternative embodiment, the other script authors may not be allowed to change a script 1 unless they have been given temporary authority by the primary script author. The
2 assignment may be time sensitive assignment and this status may be removed. In one
3 implementation, only one script author is allowed at a moment in time to change the
4 script.
[0092] In one embodiment, the conversation wrapper references the primary
6 conversation script 432, which is a 1:1 relationship' wherein the primary conversation
7 script contains identification information such as name and version, and/or the like. a [0093] In one embodiment, the primary conversation script may link with other
9 conversation scripts 433, which is a l:m relationship and in turn each other0 conversation script component may link with other conversation scripts. For example, a1 conversation script wrapper may reference a specific link to another conversation script2 that is related to similar topics 434. These networks of conversation links are referenced3 from the conversation wrapper with associated creation details. The conversation script4 is produced and changed by the primary script author or as already mentioned an other5 script author that has been assigned the temporary status to perform script changes.6 Each conversation link is to a named conversation script, which is a 1:1 relationship.7 Each conversation script is a conversation asset and therefore each has its own8 conversation asset owner wrappers. In one implementation, the authorship amongst9 different conversation assets is likely to be different. The conversation assets may be0 triggered by conversation links that potentially increase the value of the conversation1 asset, which is described within the conversation wrapper. 2 [0094] In one embodiment, the conversation wrapper references for each script3 author their bio in context of the conversation script 435, which is a 1:1 relationship. 1 [0095] In one embodiment, the conversation may orchestrate one ore more
2 dialogue steps 436; a conversation step may orchestrate one or more activities, which is
3 a l:m relationship. Within implementations, the conversation orchestration handles
4 three primary activities, which are events, widgets and adverts.
5 [0096] In one implementation, the conversational orchestration may trigger one
6 or more events 437, which is a l:m relationship. These conversation events are in
7 context to the conversation step and thus cover things such as an AI entity movement to a the trigger of any digital medium such as an audio, picture, video or indeed any digital
9 medium. Those digital mediums triggered by conversation assets that potentially0 increase the value of the conversation asset may be described within the conversation1 wrapper. For example, a conversational event may comprise, but not limited to2 transmission of a multimedia file (e.g., an audio, video, etc.) in a text based dialogue,3 consumer's election to switch AI agents during a conversation, and/or the like.
4 [0097] In one embodiment, the conversational orchestration may trigger one or5 more widgets 438, which is a l:m relationship. These conversation widgets are in6 context to the conversation step and thus cover any type of function that may be7 performed by a widget such as a diary appointment to a transaction, e.g., a scheduleds transfer of stock shares. Those conversation widgets triggered by conversation9 orchestration that potentially increase the value of the conversation asset may be0 described within the conversation wrapper. 1 [0098] In one embodiment, the conversational orchestration may trigger one or2 more adverts 439, which is a l:m relationship. The advert may cover different forms3 such as a pictorial or video. These conversation adverts are in context to the conversation step and are governed by the methods for exchanging value for advertisements. These conversation adverts may be undertaken in conjunction with conversation events and conversation widgets. Those conversation adverts triggered by conversation orchestration that potentially increase the value of the conversation asset may be described within the conversation wrapper. For example, the link to the conversational advert may be date and time sensitive and thus enabling different placements for different contexts.
[ o o 99 ] In one embodiment, the conversation wrapper may be used to recommend other conversation assets. For example, the conversation wrapper may determine link references to other conversation through the file wrapper 440, which may further involve the trading of conversation asset shares or the assignment of conversation asset shares new shares between the respective conversation asset negotiators 441. [00100 ] FIGURES 5 A-5C provide logic flow diagrams illustrating monetizing an AI entity asset within embodiments of the DCM-platform. In one embodiment, the AI entity is a logical and/or physical form of artificial intelligence that is used as the conduit of a digital conversation, e.g., it may be an avatar whereas in a physical form it may be say a household robot, an autodialing system, a virtual identity on a messenger/ social media platform, etc. In one implementation, in its logical form a digital conversation is used for dialogue but may also govern movement of the AI entity or instruct the AI entity to perform a task. [00101] Within implementations, the AI entity asset may be treated in a similar way to a conversation asset. In one embodiment, the conversation AI entity asset is created and developed by the conversation AI entity asset owner, which is a 1:1 1 relationship 511. The conversation AI entity asset owner may be an individual or an
2 organization or a named portfolio, however, if the latter two then an individual name
3 may be required as the authoritative person. The ownership may change to another
4 person, organization or to a named portfolio. Once the conversation AI entity asset
5 owner identity and contact details have been established that person may create a
6 conversation AI entity wrapper to establish the conversation AI entity asset. r [ 00102] In one embodiment, each conversation AI entity asset may launch an AI
8 entity asset wrapper 512, which has a 1:1 relationship. In one implementation, a
9 conversation AI entity wrapper is governed by a set of methods covering all the different0 parts and interrelationships that are the basis for algorithmic trading for the creation of1 value of a conversation AI entity asset, which may be traded as a tangible and2 measurable financial instrument. 3 [ 00103] In one embodiment, the conversation AI entity wrapper may contain a4 name of the conversation AI entity asset 513, which is a 1:1 relationship. For example,5 the conversation AI entity asset owner may be responsible for the conversation AI entity6 name. 7 [00104] In one embodiment, once the conversation name has been established, a8 unique global identifier is assigned to the conversation AI entity wrapper 514, which is a9 1:1 relationship. The conversation AI entity asset global identifier may remain0 unchanged for the lifetime, including archive, of the conversational AI entity asset even1 if the constitution of the asset changes. 2 [ 00105] In one embodiment, once the AI entity asset global identifier has been3 established, the conversation AI entity asset ownership may be fully assigned to the 1 conversation AI entity asset owner 515. Within implementations, there may be a 1:1
2 relationship between conversation AI entity asset and the conversation AI entity asset
3 owner, which may indicate that the conversation AI entity asset has one share, fully
4 owned by the conversation AI entity asset owner.
5 [00106] In one embodiment, the conversation AI entity asset owner may ascertain
6 whether they wish someone else to negotiate on their behalf. In one implementation,
7 the conversation AI entity asset owner is assigned the status of conversation AI entity a asset negotiator 516, which is a 1:1 relationship.
9 [00107] In alternative implementations, the conversation AI entity asset may0 define conversation AI entity asset negotiator identification and contact details 521. In1 one embodiment, if the conversation AI entity asset owner wishes to assign proportional2 ownership to the conversation AI entity asset negotiator, then a percentage is3 determined and the conversation AI entity shares are assigned 522. The allocation may4 not be a whole unit and therefore the assignment of shares may be fractional. 5 [00108] In one embodiment, once both parties agree the conversation AI entity6 shares then a conversation AI entity stock transfer is undertaken, where an audit trail of7 the transaction is maintained as part of the conversation AI entity wrapper. 8 [ 00109] In °ne embodiment, the conversation AI entity wrapper references the9 primary AI entity designer for each AI entity design 517, which is a 1:1 relationship. If0 the conversation AI entity asset owner is the main designer then the primary AI entity1 designer identity and contact details are treated as the same. If the conversation AI2 entity asset owner is not the same as the primary AI entity designer then the3 conversation AI entity asset owner may define the primary AI entity designer 1 identification and contact details; and ascertain whether the primary AI entity designer
2 will be given partial ownership of the conversation AI entity asset, if so, the i conversation AI entity asset negotiator may negotiate with the primary AI entity designer a percentage and once determined the AI entity shares are assigned 518. the
5 allocation may not be a whole unit and therefore the assignment of AI entity shares may
6 be fractional.
7 [00110] In one embodiment, once both parties agree the AI entity shares then a
8 conversation AI entity stock transfer is undertaken 519, where an audit trail of the
9 transaction is maintained as part of the conversation AI entity asset wrapper 520. 0 [00111] In one embodiment, a primary AI entity designer may be replaced by1 another primary AI entity designer 523 and an audit trial is maintained of past primary2 AI entity designers with the conversation AI entity wrapper. To change a primary AI3 entity designer, the authority may be vested with the person with the conversation AI entity asset negotiator status, if there was a prior agreement with the current primary5 AI entity designer to release their conversation AI entity shares in case that they lose6 their primary AI entity designer status, then the share allocation is removed 524. if7 there was no prior agreement, the current primary AI entity designer may agree tos release their shares in consultation with the conversation AI entity asset negotiator. The9 shares withdrawn become part of the audit trail within the conversation AI entity asset0 wrapper. The primary AI entity designer may wish to retain all or part of their shares.1 The conversation AI entity asset negotiator may obtain prior agreement with the2 conversation AI entity asset owner to increase the number of conversation AI entity3 shares. [00112] In one embodiment, there may be more than one AI entity designer 525, which is a l:m relationship. Within implementations, the conversation AI entity wrapper references the other designers for each separate design for the same AI entity, which is a l:m relationship. The conversation AI entity asset owner may be an other AI entity designers and if so the identity and contact details are treated as the same. If the conversation AI entity asset owner is not the same as one of the other AI entity designers or if there is a need for one other AI entity designer then the conversation AI, entity asset owner may: define for each other AI entity designer identification and contact details; ascertain for each one, whether the other AI entity designer will be given partial ownership of the conversation AI entity asset, if so, the conversation AI entity asset negotiator may negotiates with the other AI entity designer 527 a percentage and once determined the conversation AI entity shares are assigned 529, and the AI entity asset shares are removed 528. The allocation may not be a whole unit and therefore the assignment of conversation AI entity shares may be fractional. [00113] In one embodiment, once both parties agree the conversation AI entity shares then a conversation stock transfer is undertaken, where an audit trail of the transaction is maintained as part of the conversation AI entity asset wrapper. [00114] In one embodiment, an other AI entity designer may be replaced by another other AI entity designer and an audit trial is maintained of past other AI entity designer with the conversation AI entity wrapper. To change an other AI entity designer the authority may be vested with the person with the conversation AI entity asset negotiator. If there was a prior agreement with the current other AI entity designer to release their conversation AI entity shares in the case that they loose their other AI entity designer status then the share allocation is removed. If there was no prior agreement the current other AI entity designer may agree to release their shares in consultation with the conversation AI entity asset negotiator. The shares withdrawn become part of the audit trail within the conversation AI entity asset wrapper. The other AI entity designer may wish to retain all or part of their shares. The conversation AI entity asset negotiator may obtain prior agreement with the conversation AI entity asset owner to increase the number of conversation shares.
[ooii5] In one embodiment, the other AI entity designers are not allowed to change a design unless they have been given temporary authority by the primary AI entity designer. This may be a time sensitive assignment and this status may be removed. In one implementation, only one AI entity designer is allowed at a moment in time to change the design. [00116] In one embodiment, the conversation AI entity wrapper references the primary AI entity icon 530 defined by AI entity designers, which is a 1:1 relationship. This primary AI entity icon contains identification information such as name and version. Within implementations, the primary AI entity icon may have a primary AI entity design and may have any number of other AI entity icon designers. [ 00117] In one embodiment, the AI entity icon references within the conversation AI entity wrapper other AI entity icons 533, which is a l:m relationship. For example, different representations may be needed for different devices within the AI entity. Each variation contains identification information such as name and version. [00118 ] In one embodiment, the conversation AI entity icon orchestrates specific conversation scripts, including a list of different conversations to the AI entity 534, τ which is a l:m relationship, which means the same AI entity icon may engage in a range
2 of different scripted digital conversations. Each orchestrated scripted conversation is
3 uniquely identified, which includes the name and descriptions. These conversation
4 scripts may link with other components of conversation script, which is a l:m
5 relationship and in turn each other conversation script component may link with other
6 conversation script components. These networks of conversation links are referenced
7 from the conversation wrapper with associated creation details. Within
8 implementations, some AI entities may become labeled as "good" conversation and thus
9 increase the value of the AI entity itself as it develops brand value. The conversation AI0 entity wrapper may contain a list of the conversation scripts associated with the AI1 entity 534. 2 [00119 ] In one embodiment, the conversation wrapper references for each AI3 Entity Designer their bio in context of the AI Entity Icon 535, which is a 1:1 relationship. 4 [00120 ] In one embodiment, an AI Entity may orchestrate activities based on5 dialogue-steps within digital conversations 536, which is a l:m relationship. The AI s Entity orchestration handles three primary activities, which are events, widgets and7 adverts. 3 [00121] In one embodiment, the AI Entity orchestration may trigger one or more9 events 537, which is a l:m relationship. These conversation AI entity events are in0 context to the conversation step and thus cover things such as an AI entity movement to1 the trigger of any digital medium such as an audio, picture, video or indeed any digital2 medium. Those digital mediums triggered by AI entities potentially increase the value3 of the conversation AI entity asset may be described within the conversation AI entity 1 wrapper.
2 [00122] In one embodiment, the AI entity orchestration may trigger one or more
3 widgets 538, which is a l:m relationship112 28. These conversation AI entity widgets are in context to the conversation step and thus cover any type of function that may be
5 performed by a widget such as a diary appointment to a transaction. Those widgets s triggered by AI entity orchestration that potentially increase the value of the
7 conversation AI entity asset may be described within the conversation AI entity wrapper.
8 [00123 ] In one embodiment, the AI entity orchestration may trigger one or more θ adverts 539, which is a l:m relationship. The advert may cover different forms such as a0 pictorial or video, these conversation adverts are in context to the conversation step and1 are governed by the methods for exchanging value for advertisements. These2 conversation AI entity adverts may be undertaken in conjunction with conversation AI3 entity events and conversation AI entity widgets. Those conversation AI entity widgets4 triggered by AI entity orchestration that potentially increase the value of the5 conversation AI entity asset can be described within the conversation AI entity wrapper.6 the link to the conversational AI entity advert may be date and time sensitive and thus7 enabling different placements for different contexts. The link to the conversational AI8 entity advert may be data sensitive and thus enabling different placements for different9 contexts. 0 [00124] In one embodiment, the AI entity icon may contain a 3rd party brand or1 brands as part of its inventory 540, this is a l:m relationship. The value of this brand2 displayed is influenced by a number of factors, including the volume of dialogue steps.3 This AI entity brand display may be date and time sensitive and thus enabling different 1 placements for different contexts. The conversational AI entity brand display may be
2 data sensitive and thus enabling different placements for different contexts.
3 [ 00125] In one embodiment, the conversation wrapper may be used to recommend
4 other conversation AI entity asset, including link references to other AI entities through
5 wrapper 541. This may involve the trading of conversation AI entity asset shares or the
6 assignment of conversation AI entity asset shares new shares between the respective
7 conversation AI entity asset negotiators. a [ 00126] In one embodiment, once the conversation AI entity asset global identity
9 has been assigned, the conversation wrapper is mandated with the conversation AI0 entity asset status 542, e.g., set to "draft," which is a 1:1 relationship. The "draft" status1 may indicate the conversation AI entity asset is not ready for digital conversation2 interaction, while a "production" status may indicate the digital conversations through3 the AI entity icon are ready to commence. 4 [ 00127] In one embodiment, the DCM-Platfo m may facilitate negotiate share5 transfers between different AI entities 543 in a similar manner as discussed in FIGURES6 5A-5C. 7 [00128] FIGURES 6A-6C provide logic flow diagrams illustrating monetizing a8 portfolio asset within embodiments of the DCM-Platform. In one embodiment, the9 portfolio conversation asset is the aggregation of conversation assets and AI entity0 assets that it has accredited, wherein a portfolio conversation asset's overall value will1 be determined by factors such as its brand and what it represents in terms of digital2 conversation. In one implementation, the portfolio conversation asset may be treated in3 a similar way to a conversation asset or as a conversation AI entity asset. 1 [00129 ] In one embodiment, the portfolio conversation asset is created and
2 developed by the portfolio conversation asset owner 611, which is a 1:1 relationship. The
3 portfolio conversation asset owner may be an individual or an organization, wherein the
4 latter may require an individual name as the authoritative person. This ownership can
5 change to another person, organization or to a named portfolio. Once the portfolio
6 conversation asset owner identity and contact details have been established, the owner
7 may create a portfolio conversation wrapper to establish the portfolio conversation asset.
8 [00130] In one embodiment, each portfolio conversation asset may launch a
9 wrapper 612, which has a 1:1 relationship. A portfolio conversation wrapper is governed
10 by a set of methods covering all the different parts and interrelationships that are the
11 basis for algorithmic trading for the creation of value of a portfolio conversation asset.
12 In one implementation, a portfolio conversation asset may be traded in digital form as a
13 tangible and measurable financial instrument.
1 [00131] In one embodiment, the portfolio conversation wrapper may contain a title
15 of the portfolio conversation asset 613, which is a 1:1 relationship. In one
16 implementation, the asset owner may be responsible for the portfolio conversation title,
17 which may be followed by a portfolio conversation asset description.
« [00132] In one embodiment, once the portfolio conversation title has been
19 established, a unique global identifier is assigned to the portfolio conversation wrapper
20 614, which is a 1:1 relationship. The portfolio conversation asset global identifier may
21 remain unchanged for the lifetime, including archive, of the conversational portfolio
22 conversation asset even if the constitution of the asset changes.
23 [00133] In one embodiment, once the portfolio conversation asset global identifier 1 has been established, the portfolio conversation asset ownership is fully assigned to the
2 portfolio conversation asset owner 615, with a 1:1 relationship between the portfolio
3 conversation asset and the portfolio conversation asset owner, which may indicate the
4 portfolio conversation asset has one share, fully owned by the portfolio conversation
5 asset owner.
a [ 00134] In one embodiment, the portfolio conversation asset owner may ascertain
7 whether they wish someone else to negotiate on their behalf. If not, the portfolio
8 conversation asset owner is assigned the status of portfolio conversation asset
9 negotiator. Otherwise it may assign one or more other people to the status portfolio
10 conversation asset negotiator 616, which is a l:m relationship; in other words, a
11 portfolio may consist of any number of portfolio conversation asset negotiators thus
12 enabling the portfolio to grow to any size it wishes.
13 [00135] In one implementation, the portfolio asset owner may retain the right to
14 be a portfolio conversation asset negotiator but also communicate with, and/or require
15 participations of other portfolio conversation asset negotiators. To establish one or
16 more other portfolio conversation asset negotiators, the owner may define portfolio
17 conversation asset negotiator identification and contact details. The portfolio
18 conversation asset negotiator may become a member of the portfolio conversation asset
19 618.
20 [00136] In one implementation, if the portfolio conversation asset owner wishes to
21 assign proportional ownership to the portfolio conversation asset negotiator then a
22 percentage is determined and the portfolio conversation shares are assigned 617. The
23 allocation may not be a whole unit and therefore the assignment of shares can be fractional. Within implementations, once both parties agree the portfolio conversation shares then a portfolio conversation stock transfer is undertaken 619, where an audit trail of the transaction is maintained as part of the portfolio conversation wrapper 620. [00137] In one embodiment, the portfolio conversation wrapper references the portfolio conversation member or members that cover the spectrum for each conversation asset or conversation AI entity asset, which is a l:m relationship. The method for engaging new portfolio conversation members may be undertaken by the portfolio conversation asset negotiator. For example, the asset negotiator may define the portfolio conversation member identification and contact details; ascertain whether the portfolio conversation member will be given partial ownership of the portfolio conversation asset, if so, then in one embodiment, the portfolio conversation asset negotiator negotiates with the portfolio conversation member 621 a percentage and once determined the portfolio conversation shares are assigned 622. The allocation may not a whole unit and therefore the assignment of portfolio conversation shares can be fractional. E00138] In one embodiment, once both parties agree the portfolio conversation shares then a portfolio conversation stock transfer is undertaken, where an audit trail of the transaction is maintained as part of the portfolio conversation asset wrapper. [00139] In one embodiment, a portfolio conversation member may be replaced by another portfolio conversation member 644 and an audit trial is maintained of past portfolio conversation members within the portfolio conversation wrapper. To change a portfolio conversation member the authority may be vested with the person with the portfolio conversation asset negotiator status. If there was a prior agreement with the 1 current portfolio conversation member to release their portfolio conversation shares in
2 the case that they loose their portfolio conversation member status then the share
3 allocation is removed 624. If there was no prior agreement the current portfolio
4 conversation member may agree to release their shares in consultation with the
5 portfolio conversation asset negotiator. The shares withdrawn become part of the audit
6 trail within the portfolio conversation asset wrapper. The portfolio conversation
7 member may wish to retain all or part of their shares. The portfolio conversation asset s negotiator may obtain prior agreement with the portfolio conversation asset owner to
9 increase the number of portfolio conversation shares. 0 [00140] In one embodiment, a portfolio conversation member may be assigned, if1 agreeable, the status of Reviewer 623, which is a role for the portfolio conversation2 member to have the vested authority to review conversation assets and conversation AI3 entity assets. There may be multiple portfolio conversation reviewers, which is a 1:14 relationship with portfolio conversation member. A portfolio conversation reviewer5 may not review conversation assets and conversation AI entity assets that they have6 authored or designed respectively. In one implementation, the portfolio conversation7 wrapper references portfolio conversation reviewers 625. For each portfolios conversation reviewer, the wrapper may reference a description of their relevant9 experience, and the asset owner may ascertain whether the portfolio conversation0 reviewer will be given partial ownership of the portfolio conversation asset in exchange1 for their contribution to reviews. If so, then in one embodiment, the portfolio2 conversation asset negotiator negotiates with the portfolio conversation reviewer a percentage and once determined the portfolio conversation shares are assigned. The allocation may not be a whole unit and therefore the assignment of portfolio conversation shares can be fractional. [00141] In one embodiment, once both parties agree the portfolio conversation shares then a conversation stock transfer is undertaken, where an audit trail of the transaction is maintained as part of the portfolio conversation asset wrapper. [00142] In one embodiment, the portfolio conversation reviewer status can be removed 626, e.g., when the portfolio conversation negotiator is involved and then the change of status defined on the portfolio conversation wrapper. An audit trial is maintained of past portfolio conversation reviewers within the portfolio conversation wrapper. If there was a prior agreement with the portfolio conversation reviewer to release their portfolio conversation shares in the case that they loose their portfolio conversation reviewer status then the share allocation is removed. If there was no prior agreement, the current portfolio conversation reviewer may agree to release their shares in consultation with the portfolio conversation asset negotiator. The shares withdrawn become part of the audit trail within the portfolio conversation asset wrapper. The portfolio conversation reviewer may retain all or part of their shares. In one embodiment, the portfolio conversation reviewer may not have the authority to change a conversation asset or a conversation AI entity asset. [ 00143] In one embodiment, a portfolio conversation member may be assigned, if agreeable, the status of accreditor, which may be a role for the portfolio conversation member to have the vested authority to provide an accreditation rating for conversation assets and conversation AI entity assets. Within implementations, there can be multiple portfolio conversation accreditors, which is a 1:1 relationship with portfolio conversation member. A portfolio conversation accreditor can also be a portfolio conversation reviewer, subject to the rules established by the portfolio conversation owner. [00144] In one implementation, a portfolio conversation accreditor may not accredit conversation assets and conversation AI entity assets that they have authored or designed respectively. The portfolio conversation wrapper references portfolio conversation accreditors. For each portfolio conversation accreditor, the wrapper may contain a description of their relevant experience, and the owner may ascertain whether the portfolio conversation accreditor will be given partial ownership of the portfolio conversation asset in exchange for their contribution to accreditation ratings. If so, in one embodiment, the portfolio conversation asset negotiator negotiates with the portfolio conversation accreditor a percentage and once determined the portfolio conversation shares are assigned. The allocation does not need to be a whole unit and therefore the assignment of portfolio conversation shares can be fractional. [00145] In one embodiment, once both parties agree the portfolio conversation shares then a conversation stock transfer is undertaken, where an audit trail of the transaction is maintained as part of the portfolio conversation asset wrapper. [00146] In one embodiment, the portfolio conversation accreditor status can be removed 627. For example, the portfolio conversation negotiator may remove the accreditor status and involves notification and then the change of status defined on the portfolio conversation wrapper. An audit trial is maintained of past portfolio conversation accreditors within the portfolio conversation wrapper. If there was a prior agreement with the portfolio conversation accreditor to release their portfolio 1 conversation shares in the case that they loose their portfolio conversation accreditor
2 status then the share allocation is removed 628. If there was no prior agreement the
3 current portfolio conversation accreditor may agree to release their shares in
4 consultation with the portfolio conversation asset negotiator. The shares withdrawn
5 become part of the audit trail within the portfolio conversation asset wrapper.
6 [00147] In one embodiment, the portfolio conversation accreditor may not have
7 the authority to change a conversation asset or a conversation AI entity asset.
a [00148] In one embodiment, the portfolio conversation negotiator may remove
9 shares 628, which belong to a member. This may be addressed by the portfolio0 conversation negotiator and involves notification and then the removal of portfolio1 conversation asset shares, which requires an update to the portfolio conversation2 wrapper. An audit trial is maintained of removed shares within the portfolio3 conversation wrapper. 4 [00149] I one embodiment, the portfolio conversation wrapper references the5 portfolio conversation brand 629, which is a 1:1 relationship. In one implementation,6 the portfolio conversation asset owner is responsible for changes to the portfolio7 conversation asset brand. An audit trial is maintained of changes to the portfolio8 conversation asset brand within the portfolio conversation wrapper. 9 [00150] In one embodiment, the portfolio conversation wrapper references each0 conversation asset 630, which is a l:m relationship. The conversation asset may be1 developed by portfolio conversation members within the portfolio conversation. In2 another embodiment, for conversation assets developed outside the domain of the3 portfolio, the conversation asset author may wish to become a member of the portfolio so that their conversation assets can be reviewed and receive an accreditation rating. The portfolio conversation owner through their portfolio conversation negotiator may require that they take ownership of conversation asset shares. In this case, the negotiations may be undertaken between the portfolio conversation negotiator and the conversation asset negotiator, and ascertain the value of exchange in terms of shares. [o o i5 i] In one implementation, there may be an agreement of new shares within the conversation asset that are assigned to the portfolio conversation asset. In other words, the agreed transfer of conversation asset shares is registered with the portfolio conversation wrapper. [00152] In one embodiment, the negotiation may involve a swap of shares between the portfolio conversation asset and the conversation asset. The conversation asset negotiator may agree to pay an amount that may be standalone or in conjunction with the trade in shares as described. If the amount, is agreed then this transaction may be entered in the portfolio conversation monetization log with all the transactional details. [00153] Once the portfolio conversation asset negotiator agrees the value exchange terms with the conversation asset negotiator then the transaction is completed, which may include assignment of conversation asset shares and if necessary portfolio conversation asset shares, which are stored in their respective wrappers. The allocations may not be a whole unit and therefore the assignment of conversation shares may be fractional. [00154] In one embodiment, once both parties agree the shares then a stock transfer is undertaken with an audit trail of the transactions maintained on the respective wrappers for the portfolio conversation asset and the conversation asset. [00155] In one embodiment, the portfolio conversation wrapper contains a list of all conversation asset shares and a link to the conversation asset and its wrapper, which is then eligible for receiving the portfolio asset brand and subsequent portfolio reviews and accreditation. [00156 ] In one embodiment, the conversation asset wrapper contains a list of all portfolio conversation asset shares within its wrapper. Within implementations, the conversation asset may be exclusive or non exclusive with a portfolio conversation asset. if it is the latter, then the conversation asset may be represented by any number of portfolios. [00157] In one embodiment, the portfolio conversation wrapper references each conversation AI entity asset 631 to the portfolio, which is a l:m relationship. The conversation AI entity asset may be developed by portfolio conversation members within the portfolio conversation, and therefore follows the methods as already defined for Conversation AI Entity Assets. In other implementations, for conversation AI entity assets developed outside the domain of the portfolio, the conversation AI entity designer may wish to become a member of the portfolio so that their conversation AI entity assets can be reviewed and receive an accreditation rating. In order to do so, the portfolio conversation owner through their portfolio conversation negotiator may require that they take ownership of conversation AI entity asset shares. In this case, the negotiations may be undertaken between the portfolio conversation negotiator and the conversation AI entity asset negotiator. [00158] In one implementation, the portfolio asset owner may ascertain the value of exchange in terms of shares. In one embodiment, this may be an agreement of net 1 shares within the conversation AI entity asset that are assigned to the Portfolio
2 conversation asset. In other words, the agreed transfer of conversation AI entity asset
3 shares may be registered with the portfolio conversation wrapper. [00159] In one embodiment, the negotiation may involve a swap of shares between
5 the portfolio conversation asset and the conversation AI entity asset. In one e embodiment, the negotiator may agree to pay an amount that may be standalone or in 7 conjunction with the trade in shares as described. If the amount is agreed then this a transaction may be entered in the portfolio conversation monetization log with all the
9 transactional details. 0 [00160] In one embodiment, once the portfolio conversation asset negotiator1 agrees the value exchange terms with the conversation AI entity asset negotiator then2 the transaction is completed. This includes assignment of conversation AI entity asset3 shares and if necessary portfolio conversation asset shares, which are stored in the4 respective wrappers. The allocations may not be a whole unit and therefore the5 assignment of shares can be fractional. 6 [00161] In one embodiment, once both parties agree the shares then a stock7 transfer is undertaken with an audit trail of the transactions maintained on the8 respective wrappers for the portfolio conversation asset and the conversation AI entity9 asset. 0 [00162] In one embodiment, the portfolio conversation wrapper contains a list of1 all conversation AI entity asset shares and a link to the conversation AI entity asset and2 its wrapper, which is then eligible for receiving the portfolio asset brand and subsequent3 portfolio reviews and accreditation. 1 [00163] In one embodiment, the conversation AI entity asset wrapper contains a
2 list of all portfolio conversation asset shares within its wrapper. Within
3 implementations, the conversation AI entity asset may be exclusive or non exclusive 4. with a portfolio conversation asset, if it is the latter, then the conversation AI entity 5 asset may be represented by any number of portfolios. s [00164] In one embodiment, the portfolio conversation wrapper references for 7 each portfolio conversation member their bio 632, which is a 1:1 relationship. s [ 00165] In one embodiment, a portfolio conversation wrapper may maintain a
9 counter of the dialogue-steps within digital conversations 633, which is a l:m 0 relationship for each conversation asset. 1 [00166] In one embodiment, a portfolio conversation wrapper maintains a counter 2 of the conversation asset events 634 triggered by digital conversations, which is a l:m3 relationship for each conversation asset. 4 [ o o 167] In one embodiment, a portfolio conversation wrapper maintains a counter5 of the conversation asset widgets 635 triggered by digital conversations, which is a l:m6 relationship for each conversation asset. 7 [00168] In one embodiment, a portfolio conversation wrapper maintains a counter8 of the conversation asset adverts 636 triggered by digital conversations, which is a l:m9 relationship for each conversation asset. 0 [ 00169] In one embodiment, a portfolio conversation wrapper maintains a counter1 of the conversation asset web-services 637 triggered by digital conversations, which is a2 l:m relationship for each conversation asset. [ 00170] In one embodiment, a portfolio conversation wrapper maintains a counter of the conversation AI entity brand displays (3rd Party) 638 triggered by digital conversations, which is a l:m relationship for each conversation AI entity asset. [00171] In one embodiment, all interactions and transactions related to the portfolio conversation asset are stored as an audit that provides a basis for future projected value 639. This audit history is accessible from the portfolio conversation wrapper, which is a l:m relationship. [ 00172] In one embodiment, a portfolio conversation wrapper maintains a list of portfolio conversation members that also have the status of portfolio conversation authors 640, which is a l:m relationship in a similar manner as discussed in establishing conversation asset authors. [00173] In one embodiment, a portfolio conversation wrapper maintains a list of portfolio conversation members that also have the status of portfolio conversation designers 641, which is a l:m relationship. The means to become a designer is covered in the methods associated with conversation AI entity designer. [00174] In one embodiment, the portfolio conversation wrapper may be used to establish references 642 for other portfolio conversation assets, which may include the trading of portfolio conversation asset shares or the assignment of portfolio conversation asset shares, and/or new shares 645 between the respective portfolio conversation asset negotiators. . [00175 ] FIGURES 7A-7C provide logic flow diagrams illustrating monetizing an exchange asset within embodiments of the DCM-Platform. In one embodiment, the t exchange conversation asset is the aggregation of conversation assets and AI entity
2 assets that have been accredited by the portfolio conversation asset that has a
3 relationship with the exchange conversation asset. An exchange conversation asset's
4 overall value will be determined by factors such as its brand and what it represents in
5 terms of digital conversation from the aggregation of portfolio conversation assets. The
6 exchange conversation asset is treated in a similar way to a portfolio conversation asset,
7 with different embodiments in trading conversation assets and conversation AI entity
8 assets. The exchange conversation asset may have its own portfolio conversation asset
9 to directly deal with conversation authors and conversation AI entity designers that are
10 not exclusive to other portfolio conversation assets. The exchange conversation asset
11 may be linked with multiple exchange conversation assets.
12 [00176] In one embodiment, the exchange conversation asset is created and
13 developed by the exchange conversation asset owner 711, which is a 1:1 relationship.
14 The exchange conversation asset owner may be an individual or an organization,
15 wherein an individual name may be needed as the authoritative person. This ownership
16 can change to another individual or another organization. In one implementation, once
17 the exchange conversation asset owner identity and contact details have been
18 established that person may create an exchange conversation wrapper 712 to establish
19 the exchange conversation asset.
20 [ 00177] In one embodiment, each exchange conversation asset contains a wrapper
21 712, which has a 1:1 relationship. An exchange conversation wrapper is governed by a
22 set of methods covering all the different parts and interrelationships that are the basis
23 for algorithmic trading for the creation of value of an Exchange Conversation Asset. In 1 one implementation, the exchange conversation asset is tradable in digital forms as a
2 financial instrument.
3 [00178] In one embodiment, the exchange conversation wrapper may contain a
4 title of the Exchange Conversation Asset 713, which is a 1:1 relationship043. The
5 exchange conversation asset owner person may be responsible for the exchange
6 conversation title, followed by an exchange conversation asset description.
7 [oo i79] In one embodiment, once the exchange conversation title has been
8 established, a unique global identifier is assigned to the exchange conversation wrapper
9 714, which is a 1:1 relationship. The exchange conversation asset global identifier may
10 remain unchanged for the lifetime, including archive, of the conversational exchange
11 conversation asset even if the constitution of the asset changes.
12 [00180] In one embodiment, once the exchange conversation asset global identifier
13 has been established the exchange conversation asset ownership is fully assigned to the
14 exchange conversation asset owner 715, with a 1:1 relationship between the exchange
15 conversation asset and the exchange conversation asset owner. This is equivalent to the
16 exchange conversation asset having one share, which is fully owned by the exchange
17 conversation asset owner.
18 [00181] In one embodiment, the exchange conversation asset owner may ascertain t9 whether they wish someone else to negotiate on their behalf 716. if not, the exchange
20 conversation asset owner is assigned the status of exchange conversation asset
21 negotiator. Otherwise it may assign one or more other people to the status exchange
22 conversation asset negotiator 716, which is a l:m relationship; in other words, an
23 exchange may consist of any number of exchange conversation asset negotiators thus 1 enabling the exchange to grow to any size it wishes. The exchange asset owner may
2 retain the right to be an exchange conversation asset negotiator, but also require more
3 exchange conversation asset negotiators. To establish one or more other exchange
4 conversation asset negotiators, the asset owner may define exchange conversation asset
5 negotiator identification and contact details. The exchange conversation asset
6 negotiator becomes a member of the exchange conversation asset.
r [00182] In one embodiment, if the exchange conversation asset owner wishes to
8 assign proportional ownership to the exchange conversation asset negotiator then a
9 percentage is determined and the exchange conversation shares are assigned 717. The0 allocation may not be a whole unit and therefore the assignment of shares can be1 fractional. 2 [00183] In one embodiment, once both parties agree the exchange conversation3 shares then an exchange conversation stock transfer 719 is undertaken, where an audit4 trail of the transaction is maintained as part of the exchange conversation wrapper. 5 [00184] In one embodiment, the exchange conversation wrapper references the6 exchange conversation member or members that cover the spectrum for each7 conversation asset or conversation AI entity asset within each portfolio conversation8 asset 718, which is a l:m relationship. The method for engaging new Exchange9 conversation members may be undertaken by the exchange conversation asset0 negotiator as follows. 1 [00185] In one implementation, the asset owner may define the exchange2 conversation member identification and contact details; ascertain whether the exchange3 conversation member will be given partial ownership of the exchange conversation asset. If so, then the exchange conversation asset negotiator negotiates 721 with the exchange conversation member a percentage and once determined the exchange conversation shares are assigned 722. The allocation may not be a whole unit and therefore the assignment of exchange conversation shares can be fractional. In one embodiment, once both parties agree the exchange conversation shares then an exchange conversation stock transfer is undertaken 719, where an audit trail of the transaction is maintained as part of the exchange conversation asset wrapper 720. [00186] In one embodiment, an exchange conversation member can be replaced by another exchange conversation member and an audit trial is maintained of past exchange conversation members within the exchange conversation wrapper. To change an exchange conversation member, the authority may be vested with the person with the exchange conversation asset negotiator status. If there was a prior agreement with the current exchange conversation member to release their exchange conversation shares in the case that they loose their exchange conversation member status then the share allocation is removed 724. If there was no prior agreement the current exchange conversation member may agree to release their shares in consultation with the exchange conversation asset negotiator. The shares withdrawn become part of the audit trail within the exchange conversation asset wrapper. The exchange conversation member may wish to retain all or part of their shares. The exchange conversation asset negotiator may obtain prior agreement with the exchange conversation asset owner to increase the number of exchange conversation shares. [00187] In one embodiment, an exchange conversation member may be assigned, if agreeable, the status of reviewer 723, which may be a role for the exchange 1 conversation member to have the vested authority to review portfolio conversation
2 assets, conversation assets and conversation AI entity assets. There may be multiple
3 exchange conversation reviewers, which is a 1:1 relationship with exchange conversation
4 member. An exchange conversation reviewer may not review conversation assets and
5 conversation AI entity assets that they have authored or designed respectively. In one β implementation, it is optional for the exchange to review conversation assets and
7 conversation AI entity assets, which may be undertaken to increase the future earnings
8 of an asset. The exchange conversation wrapper references exchange conversation
9 reviewers. For each exchange conversation reviewer, the wrapper may include a0 description of their relevant experience, and ascertain whether the exchange1 conversation reviewer will be given partial ownership of the exchange conversation asset2 in exchange for their contribution to reviews. If so, then the exchange conversation3 asset negotiator negotiates with the exchange conversation reviewer a percentage and4 once determined the exchange conversation shares are assigned. The allocation may not5 be a whole unit and therefore the assignment of Exchange Conversation Shares can be6 fractional. 7 [ 00188] In one embodiment, once both parties agree the exchange conversationa shares then a conversation stock transfer is undertaken, where an audit trail of the9 transaction is maintained as part of the exchange conversation asset wrapper. 0 [00189 ] In one embodiment, the exchange conversation reviewer status may be1 removed 726. For example, the removal may be addressed by the exchange2 conversation negotiator and involves notification and then the change of status defined3 on the exchange conversation wrapper. An audit trial is maintained of past exchange conversation reviewers within the exchange conversation wrapper. If there was a prior agreement with the exchange conversation reviewer to release their exchange conversation shares in the case that they loose their exchange conversation reviewer status then the share allocation is removed. If there was no prior agreement the current exchange conversation reviewer may agree to release their shares in consultation with the exchange conversation asset negotiator. The shares withdrawn become part of the audit trail within the exchange conversation asset wrapper. The exchange conversation reviewer may wish to retain all or part of their shares. [00190] In one embodiment, the exchange conversation reviewer may not have the authority to change a portfolio conversation asset, conversation asset or a conversation AI entity asset. [00191] In one embodiment, an exchange conversation member may be assigned, if agreeable, the status of accreditor 725, which is a role for the exchange conversation member to have the vested authority to provide an accreditation rating for portfolio conversation assets, conversation assets and conversation AI entity assets. There may be multiple exchange conversation accreditors, which is a 1:1 relationship with the exchange conversation member. An exchange conversation accreditor can also be an exchange conversation reviewer, subject to the rules established by the exchange conversation owner. An exchange conversation accreditor may not accredit conversation assets and conversation AI entity assets that they have authored or designed respectively nor can they accredit a portfolio conversation asset that they hold the status of conversation asset owner or conversation asset negotiator. The exchange conversation wrapper references exchange conversation accreditors. For each exchange conversation accreditor, the wrapper may include a description of their relevant experience, and ascertain whether the exchange conversation accreditor will be given partial ownership of the exchange conversation asset in exchange for their contribution to accreditation ratings. If so, then the exchange conversation asset negotiator negotiates11411 with the exchange conversation accreditor a percentage and once determined the exchange conversation shares are assigned. The allocation may not need to be a whole unit and therefore the assignment of exchange conversation shares can be fractional. [00192] In one embodiment, once both parties agree the exchange conversation shares then a conversation stock transfer is undertaken, where an audit trail of the transaction is maintained as part of the exchange conversation asset wrapper. [00193] In one embodiment, the exchange conversation accreditor status may be removed 727. For example, the removal may be addressed by the exchange conversation negotiator and involves notification and then the change of status defined on the exchange conversation wrapper. An audit trial is maintained of past exchange conversation accreditors within the exchange conversation wrapper. If there was a prior agreement with the exchange conversation accreditor to release their exchange conversation shares in the case that they loose their exchange conversation accreditor status then the share allocation is removed. If there was no prior agreement the current exchange conversation accreditor may agree to release their shares in consultation with the exchange conversation asset negotiator. The shares withdrawn become part of the audit trail within the exchange conversation asset wrapper. The exchange conversation accreditor may wish to retain all or part of their shares. 1 [ 00194] In one embodiment, the exchange conversation accreditor may not have
2 the authority to change a conversation asset or a conversation AI entity asset.
3 [00195] In one embodiment, the exchange conversation negotiator may remove
4 shares 728, which belong to a member, which may be addressed by the exchange
5 conversation negotiator and involves notification and then the removal of exchange
6 conversation asset shares, which requires an update to the exchange conversation
7 wrapper. An audit trial is maintained of deleted shares within the exchange s conversation wrapper.
9 [00196] In one embodiment, the exchange conversation wrapper references the0 exchange conversation brand 729, which is a 1:1 relationship. In one implementation,1 the change to the exchange conversation asset brand is the responsibility of the2 exchange conversation asset owner. An audit trial is maintained of changes to the3 exchange conversation asset brand within the exchange conversation wrapper. 4 [00197] In one embodiment, the exchange conversation wrapper references each5 portfolio conversation asset and within this grouping every conversation asset 730,6 which is a l:l:m relationship. The portfolio conversation asset and the associated7 conversation assets may be developed by exchange conversation members, and thuss follows a similar manner as discussed for portfolio conversation assets. For9 conversation assets developed outside the domain of the exchange, the conversation0 asset author may wish to become a member of the exchange so that their conversation1 assets can be reviewed and receive an accreditation rating. In one implementation, the2 exchange conversation owner through their exchange conversation negotiator would3 point the conversation asset owner to one of their portfolio conversation assets and then 1 similar methods discussed for portfolio conversation assets may be applied.
2 [00198 ] In one embodiment, the exchange conversation wrapper references each
3 portfolio conversation asset and within this grouping every conversation AI entity asset
4 731, which is a l:l:m relationship. The portfolio conversation asset and the associated
5 conversation AI entity assets may be developed by exchange conversation members, and
6 then follow similar manners discussed for portfolio conversation assets. For
7 conversation AI entity assets developed outside the domain of the exchange, the
8 conversation asset designer may wish to become a member of the exchange so that their
9 conversation AI entity assets can be reviewed and receive an accreditation rating. The0 exchange conversation owner through their exchange conversation negotiator would1 point the conversation AI entity asset owner to one of their portfolio conversation assets2 and then the methods discussed for portfolio conversation assets may be applied. 3 [00199] In one embodiment, the exchange conversation wrapper references for4 each exchange conversation member their bio 732, which is a 1:1 relationship. 5 [00200] In one embodiment, an exchange conversation wrapper maintains a6 counter of the dialogue-steps 733 within digital conversations, for each conversation7 asset within each portfolio conversation asset. 8 [00201] In one embodiment, an exchange conversation wrapper maintains a9 counter of the conversation asset events 734 triggered by digital conversations, for each0 conversation asset within each portfolio conversation asset. 1 [ 00202] In one embodiment, an exchange conversation wrapper maintains a2 counter of the conversation asset widgets 735 triggered by digital conversations, for each3 conversation asset within each portfolio conversation asset. [00203] In one embodiment, an exchange conversation wrapper maintains a counter of the conversation asset display adverts 736 triggered by digital conversations, for each conversation asset within each portfolio conversation asset. [00204] In one embodiment, an exchange conversation wrapper maintains a counter of the conversation asset web-services 737 triggered by digital conversations, for each conversation asset within each portfolio conversation asset. [00205] In one embodiment, an exchange conversation wrapper maintains a counter of the conversation AI entity 3rd party brands 738 triggered by digital conversations, for each conversation AI entity asset within each portfolio conversation asset. [ 00206] In one embodiment, all interactions and transactions related to the exchange conversation asset are stored as an audit that provides a basis for future projected value 739. The retrieved audit history includes categorization by the portfolio conversation assets, which is accessible from the exchange conversation wrapper. [00207] In one embodiment, an exchange conversation wrapper maintains a list of exchange conversation members that also have the status of exchange conversation authors 740, which are categorized by their respective portfolio conversation asset. [00208] In one embodiment, an exchange conversation wrapper maintains a list of exchange conversation members that also have the status of exchange conversation designers 741, which are categorized by their respective portfolio conversation asset. [ 00209] In one embodiment, the Exchange Conversation Wrapper may be used to establish references to other exchange conversation assets 742, which may involve the 1 trading of Exchange conversation asset shares or the assignment of exchange
2 conversation asset shares new shares between the respective exchange conversation
3 asset negotiators 745.
4 [ 00210] FIGURE 8 A provides a logic flow diagram illustrating pricing a virtual
5 asset within embodiments of the DCM-Platform. In one embodiment, an asset owner,
6 e.g., a conversation asset owner as discussed in FIGURES 4B-4D, a conversation AI
7 entity asset owner as discussed in FIGURES 5A-5C, a portfolio asset owner as discussed s in FIGURES 6A-6C, an exchange asset owner as discussed in FIGURES 7A-7C, etc., may
9 determine a dollar value for a dialogue step 805 in a conversation. In one0 implementation, the asset owner may determine the value based on past pricing1 information of similar dialogue steps. For example, to price a dialogue line 'Ί prefer2 hair dresser for straight and sleek hair styles," the asset owner may consider past pricing3 information indicative of consumer preferences on hair dressers. 4 [00211] In another implementation, the DCM-Platform may receive related5 trading/pricing information 810 from a trading platform as a reference of price6 determination. For example, pricing information of conversation assets from the same7 author may be grouped to provide relevant pricing information. s [00212 ] In one implementation, the value of a dialogue may be determined based9 on the contents, e.g., whether there is an outcome 815, etc.. For example, if a dialogue0 starts with a question from an AI entity "what kind of hair dresser are you looking for?",1 and an outcome is generated from the consumer's dialogue response "I prefer hair2 dresser for straight and sleek hair styles," then such dialogue may be priced higher than3 a dialogue without any outcome, e.g., the consumer's response does not address any 1 preferences:"! don't know." If no outcome is generated, the DCM-Platform may
2 continue to price the next dialogue step.
3 [00213 ] In one implementation, if an outcome is included in a dialogue step, the
4 DCM-Platform may search received trading information related to similar outcomes
5 820, and based on the searched pricing information, the DCM-Platform may adjust the
6 price of the dialogue step 826. For example, the trading information of conversations
7 comprising outcomes indicating consumer's preferences of hair dressers may reflect the
8 supply-demand relationship of such information on the market, and if the demand is
9 high, the DCM-Platform may price the dialogue step higher accordingly. 0 [00214] In one implementation, the DCM-Platform may continue to determine1 every dialogue step in a conversation, based on which the price of a conversation asset, a2 conversation AI entity asset 830, a portfolio asset and an exchange asset 835 may be3 determined. The DCM-Platform may then update the wrapper of the virtual asset and4 submit pricing information for a transaction 840. 5 [00 15 ] FIGURE 8B provides a logic flow diagram illustrating asset monetization6 within alternative embodiments of the DCM-Platform. In one implementation, the7 DCM-Platform may receive asset information of a virtual asset owner 845, such as, but8 not limited to asset ownership information, asset authorship information, asset9 description, asset title, asset icon information, and/or the like. 0 [00216 ] Within implementations, the DCM-Platform may facilitate the initiation of1 monetization by obtaining a corporate certificate of the asset owner, and/or credentials2 from an investor 850. The DCM-Platform may then assign intellectual property rights3 associated with the digital assets to the investor 855, and then determine shares of stock 1 and price of a stock share 865 based on the pricing information submitted by the asset
2 owner.
3 [00217] In one implementation, the DCM-Platform may determine cost factors
4 associated with the monetization 870, such as, but not limited to operational cost,
5 advertisement cost, and/or the like. The DCM-Platform may then determine a s dividends payment structure based on the determined stock shares and the cost factors
7 875, and facilitate transfer of stock shares 880. For example, the DCM-Platform may
8 generate a financial instrument based on the stock shares, such as futures, forwards,
9 options and/or the like, which are based on the underlying virtual assets, and submit to0 a financial trading platform for transactions. 1 Alternative Embodiments of DCM-Platform Asset Pricing2 [ 00218] In one embodiment, the method for the determination of a Conversation3 Asset Index is influenced by whether it is standalone or part of a Portfolio Conversation4 or an Exchange Conversation. This method applies to the standalone Conversation5 Asset. In one implementation, the method involves two parts: Interaction6 (Conversation Asset Interaction Index)and Monetary (Conversation Asset Monetary7 Index) 8 [00219] In one embodiment, every digital conversation interaction involves one or9 more conversation-steps. A conversation-step contains the following attributes: the0 dialogue, the date and time the conversation-step started, the number of words within1 the dialogue, the number of dialogue-options, which can be zero or more, the selected2 country/language. [00220] In one embodiment, each conversation- step interaction is recorded and stored in an archive with the dialogue together with the attributes above. [00221] In one embodiment, the conversation asset interaction index is updated for each conversation-step as follows: go back to the previous conversation-step, which is not relevant for the first conversation-step; go to the next conversation-step which is relevant when there are no dialogue-options present but is not relevant in the case of the last conversation-step; selected a dialogue-option and moves to the next contextual conversation-step with interaction counter point for each appropriate backward forward or selected option taken. [00222] In one embodiment, each Digital Conversation has a start and an end point. This is known as a Conversation-String. There is a minimum of one Conversation-Step for each Conversation-String, but there is no limit to the number of Conversation-Steps within a Conversation- String. Therefore, every action taken whether it is Forward, Backward or Selected adds another node to the Conversation- String. The Conversation- String can be extended across multiple user sessions and therefore is not constrained by time. The Conversation Asset Interaction Index is the aggregation of points derived from the Conversation- Strings. Stored with the Conversation- String is the attributes defined above so this enables the calculation of the- time it took to undertake a Digital Conversation though this does not impact the Conversation Asset Interaction Index. [00223] In one embodiment, there is a Conversation-Link between Conversation- Assets then the Conversation- String continues unabated by accumulating the Interaction Counter Points. There is no constraint in the use of Conversation-Links 1 between Conversation-Assets. Therefore, a Conversation- String may encompass any
2 number of Conversation-Assets. There is no limit to the number of Conversation-Steps
3 that can be counted and update the Conversation Asset Interaction Index. The first
4 Conversation-Asset is the origination of the Conversation- String and therefore has its
5 own Conversation Asset Interaction Index. However, each Conversation Asset has its
6 own Conversation-String and its own Conversation Asset Interaction Index, which are
7 also updated even though they may not be the origination for a given Digital s Conversation. Example: Let's take three Conversation Assets called CAi, CA2 and CA3.
9 The interaction starts with CAi and involves 3 Conversation-Steps. The CAi Index is set0 to 3 Interaction Points. The CAi Conversation Link goes to CA2 that involves 41 Conversation-Steps. The CAi Index is now set to 7 Interaction Points and the CA2 Index2 is now set to 4 Interaction Points. The CA2 Conversation Link goes to CA3 that involves3 5 Conversation- Steps. The CAi Index is now set to 12 Interaction Points, the CA2 Index4 is now set to 9 Interaction Points and the CA3 Index is now set to 5 Interaction Points. 5 [00224] In one embodiment, there are no deductions to the Conversation Asset6 Interaction Index for standalone Conversation Assets. 7 [00225] In one embodiment, the Conversation Asset Interaction Index consistentlys is applied across changed versions of the Conversation Asset. However, a historical9 audit is kept by Conversation Asset versions for trend and comparison analysis. This0 means the Conversation Asset Interaction Index provides a life time view of the1 Conversation Asset's interaction performance. 2 [ 00226] In one embodiment, the Conversation Asset Interaction Index and the3 associated attributes of the Digital Conversation usage as described above are maintained with the Conversation Asset Wrapper. [00227] In one embodiment, the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is the accumulative numeric value associated with the Conversation Asset and is pegged to a global currency that is determined for the trading associated with the Conversation Asset. [00228] In one embodiment, there are varies ways that a standalone Conversation Asset can be monetized to update the Conversation Asset Monetary Index, as follows: [00229] The DCM-Platform may sell conversation asset shares; [00230] For example, in one embodiment, where monetary value has been exchanged for Conversation Assets Shares this is logged to the Conversation Asset Monetary Index. So say one sold 10 shares out of 100 shares for a Conversation Asset for say $20 each. Once the transaction has been logged within the Conversation Asset Wrapper then the Conversation Asset is now worth in total 2,000 Monetary Points (100 shares * $20) plus any additional monetary value sourced from elsewhere - see below. If one more Conversation Asset share is sold for $10 then the Conversation Asset is now worth in total 1,000 Monetary Points (100 shares * $10) plus any additional monetary value sourced from elsewhere. But if the next is sold for $30 then the Conversation Asset is now worth in total 3,000 Monetary Points (100 shares * $30) plus any additional monetary value sourced from elsewhere - see below. If no Conversation Assets Shares are sold then the Conversation Asset Monetary Index cannot be altered for this consideration (100 shares * $0). [00231] In one embodiment, the DCM-Platform may swap conversation asset shares; [ 00232] In one embodiment, this is treated in the same way as for Sell Conversation Asset Shares. The difference is that if a swap is with another Conversation Asset Shares and if this Conversation Asset Share has a monetary value then the current value is used as the bid price and is then treated like money. So if the Conversation Asset is worth $100 per share and it swaps 1 share for 2 shares then the bid price equates to $50 a share (100 shares * $50) thus the Conversation Asset is now worth in total 5,000 Monetary Points plus any additional monetary value sourced from elsewhere. Swap Conversation AI Entity Asset Shares
[00233] In one embodiment, this is treated in the same way as for Sell Conversation Asset Shares. The difference is that if a swap is with a Conversation AI Entity Asset Shares and if this Conversation AI Entity Asset Share has a monetary value then the current value is used as the bid price and is then treated like money. So if the Conversation AI Entity Asset is worth $100 per share and it swaps 1 share for 2 shares then the bid price equates to $50 a share (100 shares * $50) thus the Conversation Asset is now worth in total 5,000 Monetary Points plus any additional monetary value sourced from elsewhere - see below. Conversation Display Advertising
[00234] In one embodiment, if monetary value is received for context Conversation Display Advertising or marketing then the transaction is logged in the Conversation Asset Wrapper and the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is updated accordingly. The term period for this monetary value is defaulted to one year unless a specific contract has been negotiated. Once this transaction has been updated into the Conversation Asset the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is updated for the period of the monetary term. For example: if the advert is a dollar per display then the Conversation Asset 1 Monetary Index is updated by one monetary point that is removed after i year^ If
2 however, it was negotiated that an advert would be permanently displayed at a given
3 Conversation-Step for $1,000 for 3 months then the Conversation Asset Monetary Index
4 is updated by 1,000 Monetary Points but the amount is removed from the Conversation
5 Asset Monetary Index at the end of the 3 month period.
6 [00235] In one embodiment, the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is only
7 updated for the specific Conversation Asset and not for that Conversation Asset that it
8 directly or indirectly has Conversation Links. However, if the Conversation Asset
9 Negotiator of a direct or indirect Linked Conversation Asset agrees to a pro rata
10 monetary value for triggered Conversation Display Advert due to an earlier Digital
1 1 Conversation but within the same Conversation-String then this pro rata value is added
12 to the Conversation Asset Monetary Index.
13 [00236 ] In one embodiment, it should be remembered that Conversation Display
14 Adverts can be triggered for each specific Conversation-Step.
15 3rd Party Conversation Events
16 [ O O 237] In one embodiment, if monetary value is received for triggering a 3rd Party
17 Conversation Event then the transaction is logged in the Conversation Asset Wrapper f8 and the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is updated accordingly.
19 [00238 ] In one embodiment, the conditions and the term period for each
20 Conversation Event are specifically negotiated.
21 [00239] In one embodiment, the negotiation could be a fixed price for a given term
22 period regardless to the number of times a Conversation Event is triggered. In this case,
23 once this transaction has been updated into the Conversation Asset the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is updated for the period of the monetary term but removed from the Conversation Asset Monetary Index at the end of the negotiated term period. [00240] In one embodiment, the negotiation could be a fee-based price for each time a specific Conversation Event is triggered. For example: If the Conversation Event is a dollar per Conversation Event triggered then the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is immediately updated by the agreed monetary unit whenever this trigger occurs. These Monetary Points are removed after the agreed term period negotiated. [00241] In one embodiment, the negotiation may be time sensitive so events are triggered only within an agreed time period. This may involve a fixed and/ or variable set of conditions including a cap to limit liability. Alternatively, different Conversation Events can be triggered by different Dialogue-Options. Regardless of these variations the method still applies that the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is updated accordingly whether to add or delete monetary points. [ 00242] In one embodiment, the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is only updated for the specific Conversation Asset and not for that Conversation Asset that it directly or indirectly has Conversation Links. However, if the Conversation Asset Negotiator of a direct or indirect Linked Conversation Asset agrees to a pro rata monetary value for triggered Conversation Events due to an earlier Digital Conversation but within the same Conversation- String then this pro rata value is added to the Conversation Asset Monetary Index. [00243] In one embodiment, it should be remembered that Conversation Event can be triggered for each specific Conversation-Step. 3rd Party Conversation Widgets 1 [0 244] In one embodiment, if monetary value is received for triggering a 3"1 Party
2 Conversation Widget then the transaction is logged in the Conversation Asset Wrapper
3 and the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is updated accordingly.
4 [00245] m one embodiment, the conditions and the term period for each
5 Conversation Widget are specifically negotiated.
6 [00246] In one embodiment, the negotiation could be a fixed price for a given term
7 period regardless to the number of times a Conversation Widget is triggered. In this case,
8 once this transaction has been updated into the Conversation Asset the Conversation
9 Asset Monetary Index is updated for the period of the monetary term but removed from
10 the Conversation Asset Monetary Index at the end of the negotiated term period. n [00247] In one embodiment, the negotiation could be a fee-based price for each
12 time a specific Conversation Widget is triggered. For example: If the Conversation
13 Widget is a dollar per Conversation Widget triggered then the Conversation Asset
14 Monetary Index is immediately updated by the agreed monetary unit whenever this
15 trigger occurs. These Monetary Points are removed after the agreed term period
16 negotiated.
17 [00248] In one embodiment, the negotiation could be a commission-based price is for each time a specific Conversation Widget that results with an agree outcome such as
19 the purchase of a product or the provision of personalized information. For example: If
20 the Conversation Widget is 10% of a product purchase then this monetary value is added
21 to the Conversation Asset Monetary Index. These Monetary Points are removed after
22 the agreed term period negotiated.
23 [00249] In one embodiment, the negotiation may be time sensitive so events are 1 triggered only within an agreed lime period. This may involve a fixed and/or variable set
2 of conditions including a cap to limit liability. Alternatively, different Conversation Widget can be triggered by different Dialogue-Options. Regardless of these variations the method still applies that the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is updated
5 accordingly whether to add or delete monetary points.
6 [00250] In one embodiment, the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is only
7 updated for the specific Conversation Asset and not for that Conversation Asset that it a directly or indirectly has Conversation Links. However, if the Conversation Asset
9 Negotiator of a direct or indirect Linked Conversation Asset agrees to a pro rata0 monetary value for triggered a Conversation Widget due to an earlier Digital1 Conversation but within the same Conversation-String then this pro rata value is added2 to the Conversation Asset Monetary Index. 3 [00251] In one embodiment, it should be remembered that Conversation Widget4 can be triggered for each specific Conversation-Step. 5 Handoffs
6 [00252] In one embodiment, the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is only7 updated for the specific Conversation Asset and not for other Conversation Assets that8 are linked to; so a Conversation Asset through Digital Conversation could handoff to9 another Conversation Asset. 0 [00253] In one embodiment, however, if the Conversation Asset Negotiator of a1 direct or indirect Linked Conversation Asset agrees to a pro rata monetary value for a2 handoff then this pro rata value is added to the Conversation Asset Monetary Index with3 the inherited terms. 1 Subscription-Based Digital Conversations
2 [00254] In one embodiment, if monetary value is received for subscription-based
3 Digital Conversations then the transaction or pro-rated part of the transaction is logged
4 in the Conversation Asset Wrapper and the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is
5 updated accordingly. The term period for this monetary value is defaulted to one year e unless a specific contract has been negotiated. Once this transaction has been updated
7 into the Conversation Asset the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is updated for the
8 period of the monetary term. For example: if the subscription is an annualized $1,000
9 to access ten Conversation Assets then the Conversation Asset Monetary Index could be 0 updated by 100 Monetary Points if prorated on an equal spread, but the amount is1 removed from the Conversation Asset Monetary Index at the end of the 12 month period. 2 Alternative disbursement means can be used. 3 Conversation-Steps Meter
4 [00255] In one embodiment, the Conversation-Steps can be metered for Digital5 Conversation interactions and the associated transaction is logged in the Conversation 6 Asset Wrapper and the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is updated accordingly. The 7 term period for this monetary value is defaulted to one year unless a specific alternative8 period is determined. Once this transaction has been updated into the Conversation9 Asset the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is updated for the period of the monetary0 term. For example: if the meter is $10 per Conversation-Step and the interaction 1 involved 20 Conversation-Steps then the transaction is valued at $200 then the2 Conversation Asset Monetary Index would be updated by 100 Monetary Points, but the 3 amount is removed from the Conversation Asset Monetary Index at the end of a 12 4 month period. Conversation-Outcome Metered
[00256] In one embodiment, the Conversation-Outcomes can be metered for Digital Conversation interactions and the associated transaction is logged in the Conversation Asset Wrapper and the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is updated accordingly. The term period for this monetary value is defaulted to one year unless a specific alternative period is determined. Once this transaction has been updated into the Conversation Asset the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is updated for the period of the monetary term. For example: if the meter is $40 for a specific Conversation- Outcome and $20 for a different Conversation-Outcome then the Conversation Asset Monetary Index would be updated by 40 and 20 Monetary Points respectively, but the amount is removed from the Conversation Asset Monetary Index at the end of a 12 month period. Digital Conversation Auction
[00257] In one embodiment, the Digital Conversation can be auctioned thus introducing scarcity into the supply/demand equation. The auction transaction is logged in the Conversation Asset Wrapper and the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is updated accordingly. The term period for this monetary value is defaulted to one year unless a specific alternative period is determined. Once this transaction has been updated into the Conversation Asset the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is updated for the period of the monetary term. For example: if the auction paid $10,000 for a specific Digital Conversation then the Conversation Asset Monetary Index would be updated by 10,000 Monetary Points respectively, but the amount is removed from the Conversation Asset Monetary Index at the end of a 12 month period. Conversational Intelligence [00258] In one embodiment, the Digital Conversation Audit provides Conversational Intelligence that can be copied and sold, or accessed or aggregated with 3rd party data, as a one off or for an agreed period in exchange for a monetary value. The Conversational Intelligence transaction or prorated if shared with others is logged in the Conversation Asset Wrapper and the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is updated accordingly. The term period for this monetary value is defaulted to one year unless a specific alternative period is determined. Once this transaction has been updated into the Conversation Asset the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is updated for the period of the monetary term. For example: if a copy of 3 months Digital Conversation is sold for $500 then the Conversation Asset Monetary Index would be updated by 500 Monetary Points respectively, but the amount is removed from the Conversation Asset Monetary Index at the end of a 3 month period. Other Monetary Options
[00259] In one embodiment, the methods above show a diverse range of methods for monetization of a Conversation Asset. This does not negate other methods of monetization but the underlying method for the assignment of Monetary Points still stands. Example Conversation Asset Index
[00260 ] In one embodiment, the Conversation Asset Index is formula driven and is calculated by Conversation Asset Interaction Index + Conversation Asset Monetary Index. [00261] In one embodiment, every change to the Conversation Asset Index is logged with a date and time stamp for trend analysis and future value predictions and trading. [00262] In one embodiment, the Conversation Asset Index, Conversation Asset Interaction Index and the Conversation Asset Monetary Index values are captured on a daily, weekly, monthly and annual basis for trend analysis and future value predictions and trading. [00263] In one embodiment, all the above information is accessible via the Conversation Asset Wrapper defined by the Conversation Asset Global Identity. [00264] In one embodiment, further breakdowns of the Indexes can be viewed by: versions of the conversation asset; conversation link(s), conversation event(s), conversation widget(s), conversation advert(s). [00265] In one embodiment, the Index is not calculated when the Conversation Asset Status is anything but 'Production'. Example Aggregation of the Conversation Asset Index
[00266] In one embodiment, the Conversation Asset Index, Conversation Asset Interaction Index and the Conversation Asset Monetary Index values are also stored individually and at an aggregated level across all related Conversation Assets for the following: conversation asset ownership, conversation asset negotiator, conversation asset primary script author, conversation asset other script author(s), conversation AI entity asset. EXAMPLE METHOD FOR DETERMINING A STANDALONE CONVERSATION AI ENTITY PERFORMANCE INDEX
[00267] In one embodiment, the method for the determination of a Conversation AI Entity Performance Index is influenced by whether it is standalone or part of a Portfolio Conversation or an Exchange Conversation. This method applies only to the standalone Conversation AI Entity Asset. The Conversation AI Entity Performance 1 Index is an associated method and does not reflect the actual monetization as an
2 earning asset for the Conversation AI Entity Asset as this is addressed in the next
3 chapter.
4 Example Conversation AI Entity Performance Index method involves two parts
5 [00 68] Interaction (Conversation AI Entity Interaction Performance Index)
6 [00269] Monetary (Conversation AI Entity Monetary Performance Index)
7 Example Interaction
s [00270] In one embodiment, as already described the associated Conversation
9 Asset Interaction Index is also stored against the Conversation AI Entity Asset and0 therefore becomes the Conversation AI Entity Interaction Performance Index. 1 [00271] In one embodiment, as a Conversation AI Entity Asset can be involved2 with more than one primary Conversation Assets then the Conversation AI Entity3 Interaction Performance Index is the aggregation of the associated Conversation Asset+ Interaction Indexes. 5 [00272] In one embodiment, the Conversation AI Entity Interaction Performance6 Index consistently is applied across changed versions of the Conversation AI Entity.7 However, a historical audit is kept by Conversation AI Entity versions for trend ands comparison analysis. This means the Conversation AI Entity Interaction Performance9 Index provides a life time view of the Conversation AI Entity's interaction performance. 0 [00273] In one embodiment, the Conversation AI Entity Interaction Performance1 Index and the associated attributes of the interactions are maintained with the2 Conversation AI Entity Wrapper. 3 [00274] In one embodiment, as already described the associated Conversation 1 Asset Monetary Index is also stored against the associated Conversation AI Entity Asset
2 and therefore becomes the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Performance Index.
3 [00275] In one embodiment, as a Conversation AI Entity Asset can be involved
4 with more than one primary Conversation Assets then the Conversation AI Entity 6 Monetary Performance Index is the aggregation of the associated Conversation Asset
6 Monetary Indexes.
7 [00276] In one embodiment, the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Performance s Index is consistently applied across changed versions of the Conversation AI Entity.
9 However, a historical audit is kept by Conversation AI Entity versions for trend and0 comparison analysis. This means the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Performance1 Index provides a life time view of the Conversation AI Entity5 s monetary performance. 2 [00277] In one embodiment, the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Performance3 Index and the associated attributes of the monetary transactions are maintained with4 the Conversation AI Entity Wrapper. 5 Example Conversation AI Entity Performance Index
6 [00278] In one embodiment, the Conversation AI Entity Performance Index is7 formula driven and is calculated by Conversation AI Entity Interaction Performances Index + Conversation AI Entity Monetary Performance Index.
9 [00279] In one embodiment, every change to the Conversation AI Entity0 Performance Index is logged with a date and time stamp for trend analysis and future1 value predictions and trading. 2 [00280] In one embodiment, the Conversation AI Entity Performance Index,3 Conversation AI Entity Interaction Performance Index and the Conversation AI Entity 1 Monetary Performance Index values are captured on a daily, weekly, monthly and
2 annual basis for trend analysis and future value predictions and trading.
3 [00281] In one embodiment, all the above information is accessible via the
4 Conversation AI Entity Asset Wrapper defined by the Conversation AI Entity Asset
5 Global Identity.
6 [00282] In one embodiment, further breakdowns of the Indexes can be viewed by:
7 versions of the conversation asset conversation link(s) conversation a event(s)conversation widget(s) conversation advert(s).
9 [00283] In one embodiment, the Index is not calculated when the Conversation AI
10 Entity Asset Status is anything but 'Production'.
11 Example Aggregation of the Conversation Asset Index
12 [00284] In one embodiment, the Conversation AI Entity Performance Index,
13 Conversation AI Entity Interaction Performance Index and the Conversation AI Entity
14 Monetary Performance Index values are also stored individually and at an aggregated
15 level across all related conversation AI entity assets for the following: conversation AI ie entity asset ownership conversation AI entity asset negotiator conversation AI entity
17 asset primary designer conversation AI entity asset other designers(s).
18 EXAMPLE METHOD FOR DETERMINING A STANDALONE CONVERSATION AI
19 ENTITY MONETARY INDEX
20 [ 00285 ] In one embodiment, the method for the determination of a Conversation
21 AI Entity Monetary Index is influenced by whether it is standalone or part of a Portfolio
22 Conversation or an Exchange Conversation. This method applies only to the standalone
23 Conversation AI Entity Asset. The Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index is the
24 monetization of a Conversation AI Entity Asset as an earning asset. [00286] In one embodiment, a Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index is the accumulative numeric value associated with the Conversation AI Entity Asset and is pegged to a global currency that is determined for the trading associated with the Conversation AI Entity Asset. [00287] In one embodiment, there are varies ways that a standalone Conversation AI Entity Asset can be monetized to update the a Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index, as follows: [00288] Sell Conversation AI Entity Asset Shares [00289] In one embodiment, where monetary value has been exchanged for Conversation AI Entity Assets Shares this is logged to the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index. Look at similar contextual example above that involved applying Monetary Points to the Conversation Asset Monetary Index. [00290] Swap with Conversation Asset Shares [00291] In one embodiment, this is treated in the same way as for Sell Conversation AI Entity Asset Shares. The difference is that if a swap is with Conversation Asset Shares and if this Conversation Asset Share has a monetary value then the current value is used as the bid price and is then treated like money. Look at similar contextual example above that involved applying Monetary Points to the Conversation Asset Monetary Index. [00292] Swap with Other Conversation AI Entity Asset Shares [00293] In one embodiment, this is treated in the same way as for Sell Conversation AI Entity Asset Shares. The difference is that if a swap is with a Conversation AI Entity Asset Shares and if this Conversation AI Entity Asset Share has a monetary value then the current value is used as the bid price and is then treated like money. Look at similar contextual example above that involved applying Monetary Points to the Conversation Asset Monetary Index. [ 00294] AI Entity Brand Display [ 00295] In one embodiment, if monetary value is received for context an AI Entity Brand Display (3rd party brand being displayed as part of the Avatar inventory) then the transaction is logged in the Conversation AI Entity Asset Wrapper and Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index is updated accordingly. The term period for this monetary value is defaulted to one year unless a specific contract has been negotiated. Once this transaction has been updated into the Conversation AI Entity Asset the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index is updated for the period of the monetary term. Look at similar contextual example above that involved applying Monetary Points to the Conversation Asset Monetary Index. [ o o 296 ] 3rd Party Conversation Events [o o 297] In one embodiment, if monetary value is received for triggering a 3rd Party Conversation Event then the transaction is logged in the Conversation AI Entity Asset Wrapper and the Conversation Asset Monetary Index is updated accordingly. [00298] In one embodiment, the conditions and the term period for each Conversation Event are specifically negotiated. [00299] In one embodiment, the negotiation could be a fixed price for a given term period regardless to the number of times a Conversation Event is triggered. In this case, once this transaction has been updated into the Conversation AI Entity Asset the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index is updated for the period of the monetary term but removed from the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index at the end of the negotiated term period. [ 00300] In one embodiment, the negotiation could be a fee-based price for each time a specific Conversation Event is triggered. For example: If the Conversation Event is a dollar per Conversation Event triggered then the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index is immediately updated by the agreed monetary unit whenever this trigger occurs. These Monetary Points are removed after the agreed term period negotiated. [ 00301] In one embodiment, the negotiation may be time sensitive so events are triggered only within an agreed time period. This may involve a fixed and/or variable set of conditions including a cap to limit liability. Alternatively, different Conversation Events can be triggered by different Dialogue-Options. Regardless of these variations the method still applies that the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index is updated accordingly whether to add or delete monetary points. [ 00302] 3rd Party Conversation Widgets [ 00303] In one embodiment, if monetary value is received for triggering a 3rd Party Conversation Widget then the transaction is logged in the Conversation AI Entity Asset Wrapper and the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index is updated accordingly. [ 00304] In one embodiment, the conditions and the term period for each Conversation Widget are specifically negotiated. [00305] In one embodiment, the negotiation could be a fixed price for a given term period regardless to the number of times a Conversation Widget is triggered. In this case, once this transaction has been updated into the Conversation AI Entity Asset the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index is updated for the period of the monetary term but removed from the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index at the end of the negotiated term period. [ 00306] In one embodiment, the negotiation could be a fee-based price for each time a specific Conversation Widget is triggered. For example: If the Conversation Widget is a dollar per Conversation Widget triggered then the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index is immediately updated by the agreed monetary unit whenever this trigger occurs. These Monetary Points are removed after the agreed term period negotiated. [00307] In one embodiment, the negotiation could be a commission-based price for each time a specific Conversation Widget that results with an agree outcome such as the purchase of a product or the provision of personalized information. For example: If the Conversation Widget is 10% of a product purchase then this monetary value is added to the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index. These Monetary Points are removed after the agreed term period negotiated. [00308 ] In one embodiment, the negotiation may be time sensitive so events are triggered only within an agreed time period. This may involve a fixed and/or variable set of conditions including a cap to limit liability. Alternatively, different Conversation Widgets can be triggered by different Dialogue-Options. Regardless of these variations the method still applies that the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index is updated accordingly whether to add or delete monetary points. 1 00309] Handoffs
2 [00310] In one embodiment, the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index is only
3 updated for the specific Conversation AI Entity Asset and not for Conversation AI Entity
4 Assets that are linked to; so an AI Entity through Digital Conversation or through a
5 display within its landscape could handoff to another Conversation AI Entity.
6 [00311] In one embodiment, however, if the Conversation AI Entity Asset
7 Negotiator of a direct or indirect linked Conversation AI Entity Asset agrees to a pro rata
8 monetary value for a handoff then this pro rata value is added to the Conversation AI
9 Entity Monetary Index with the inherited terms. 0 [00312] Subscription-Based Digital Conversations
1 [00313] In one embodiment, if monetary value is received for subscription-based2 Digital Conversations then the transaction or pro-rated part of the transaction can be3 assigned to the Conversation AI Entity. In this case it is logged in the Conversation AI4 Entity Asset Wrapper and the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index is updated5 accordingly subject to the terms. Look at similar contextual example above that6 involved applying Monetary Points to the Conversation Asset Monetary Index. 7 [00314] Conversation-Steps Meter
8 [00315] In one embodiment, the Conversation-Steps can be metered for Digital9 Conversation interactions and the associated transaction or pro-rated part of the0 transaction can be assigned to the Conversation AI Entity. In this case it is logged in the1 Conversation AI Entity Asset Wrapper and the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index2 is updated accordingly subject to the terms. Look at similar contextual example above -1 that involved applyin Monetary Points to the Conversation Asset Monetary Index.
2 [ 003 16] Conversation-Outcome Metered
3 [ 0 03 1 ] In one embodiment, the Conversation-Outcomes can be metered for
4 Digital Conversation interactions and the associated transaction or pro-rated part of the
5 transaction can be assigned to the Conversation AI Entity. In this case it is logged in the
6 Conversation AI Entity Asset Wrapper and the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index
7 is updated accordingly subject to the terms. Look at similar contextual example above a that involved applying Monetary Points to the Conversation Asset Monetary Index.
9 [ 003 18] Conversation AI Entity Auction
10 [ 00319] In one embodiment, the Conversation AI Entity can be auctioned thus
11 introducing scarcity into the supply/demand equation. The auction transaction or pro-
12 rated part of the transaction can be assigned to the Conversation AI Entity. In this case 1 j it is logged in the Conversation AI Entity Asset Wrapper and the Conversation AI Entity
14 Monetary Index is updated accordingly subject to the terms. Look at similar contextual
15 example above that involved applying Monetary Points to the Conversation Asset is Monetary Index.
17 [ 00320 ] Conversational Intelligence is [00321] In one embodiment, the Digital Conversation Audit provides
19 Conversational Intelligence that can be copied and sold, or accessed or aggregated with
20 3rd party data, as a one off or for an agreed period in exchange for a monetary value.
21 The Conversational Intelligence transaction or pro-rated part of the transaction can be
22 assigned to the Conversation AI Entity. In this case it is logged in the Conversation AI Entity Asset Wrapper and the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index is updated
2 accordingly subject to the terms. Look at similar contextual example above that
3 involved applying Monetary Points to the Conversation Asset Monetary Index.
4 [00322] Other Monetary Options
5 [00323] In one embodiment, the methods above show a diverse range of methods
6 for monetization of a Conversation AI Entity Asset. This does not negate other methods
7 of monetization but the underlying method for the assignment of Monetary Points still a stands.
9 EXAMPLE METHOD FOR DETERMINING A PORTFOLIO CONVERSATION ASSET0 INDEX
1 [00324] In one embodiment, the method for the determination of a Portfolio2 Conversation Asset Index is the aggregation and portfolio-based weightings for: 3 [00325] Portfolio Conversation Asset Index = Sum of the Conversation Asset4 Indexes that have been branded by the Portfolio and are within the rules of engagement5 defined earlier. 6 [00326] Portfolio Conversation Asset Interaction Index = Sum of the Conversation7 Asset Interaction Indexes that have been branded by the Portfolio and are within the8 rules of engagement defined earlier. 9 [00327] Portfolio Conversation Asset Monetary Index = Sum of the Conversation0 Asset Monetary Indexes that have been branded by the Portfolio and are within the1 rules of engagement defined earlier. 2 [00328] Portfolio Conversation AI Entity Performance Index = Sum of the3 Conversation AI Entity Performance Indexes that have been branded by the Portfolio r and are within the rules of engagement defined earlier;
2 [00329] Portfolio Conversation AI Entity Interaction Performance Index = Sum of
3 the Conversation Interaction AI Entity Performance Indexes that have been branded by
4 the Portfolio and are within the rules of engagement defined earlier.
5 [00330] Portfolio Conversation AI Entity Monetary Performance Index = Sum of
6 the Conversation AI Entity Monetary Performance Indexes that have been branded by
7 the Portfolio and are within the rules of engagement defined earlier.
8 [00331] Portfolio Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index = Portfolio Conversation
9 AI Entity Monetary Index + Sum of the Portfolio Conversation AI Entity Monetary0 Indexes that have been branded by the Portfolio and are within the rules of engagement1 defined earlier. [00332] The Portfolio Conversation Asset contains all the permutations associated with Conversation Assets and Conversation AI Entity Assets covered earlier. Example Portfolio Conversation Tariffs
[00333] In one embodiment, the Portfolio Conversation Asset governs the monetary rules of engagement that apply to all the associated Conversation Assets and the AI Entity Assets that have been covered earlier for the individual asset classes. Example Portfolio Interaction Weightings
[00334] In one embodiment, the Portfolio Conversation Asset governs the weighting rules of engagement that apply to all the associated Conversation Assets and1 the AI Entity Assets that have been covered earlier for the individual asset classes. These weighting rules can be governed by the Portfolio and can be established for any permutation of influence including: 1 [00335 ] Portfolio Conversation Asset Feedback for example, if the Portfolio has a
2 weighting value of 5 for five star feedback then the number of Conversation-Steps can be
3 multiplied by a number assigned by the Portfolio; thus 20 Conversation-Steps is
4 multiplied by 2 for a five star feedback equating to 40 weighted Conversation-Steps that
5 are applied to the Interaction Index.
6 [00336] Portfolio Conversation Asset Review for example, if the Portfolio has a
7 weighting value of 3 for a top review of a Conversation Asset then the number of a Conversation-Steps can be multiplied by a number assigned by the Portfolio; thus 20
9 Conversation-Steps is multiplied by 3 for a top review feedback equating to 60 weighted0 Conversation-Steps that are applied to the Interaction Index. 1 [00337] Portfolio Conversation Asset Outcomes for example, if the Portfolio has2 assigned a weighting value of 10 for a primary Conversation Outcome then the number3 of Conversation-Steps can be multiplied by a 10 equating to 1000 weighted4 Conversation-Steps that are applied to the Interaction Index. 5 [00338] Further weightings applied in a similar way to the above can be given tos the following and again can be varied according to associated variables: portfolio conversation display advert portfolio conversation widget portfolio conversation event.8 A Portfolio Conversation Asset can combine other variables such as country and any9 permutation of the above to apply weightings to the Portfolio Interactions. 0 [00339] The approach to these weighting for Conversation Asset Interactions alsot applied to the Conversation AI Entity Interactions, which can be treated the same or at a2 Portfolio chosen variant. 3 [00340] The Portfolio Weightings are not applied to the monetary indexes as is 1 simply a monetary actualization.
2 Example Portfolio Conversation Liquidity Index
3 o o34 i] In one embodiment, the Portfolio Conversation Liquidity Index monitors A the trends for the accumulative monetary movements covering: portfolio conversation
5 asset monetary index portfolio conversation AI entity monetary index.
6 [ 00342] In one embodiment, as the Portfolio Conversation Liquidity Index is
7 updated as monetary changes occur the Portfolio Conversation Liquidity Index can e show trends by: hour, day, month, year.
9 [ 00343] In one embodiment, these trends can be drilled down into the Portfolio
10 Conversation Asset Monetary Index and the Portfolio Conversation AI Entity Monetary
11 Index. In turn these Indexes can be drill down into the actual transactions detailed iz earlier.
13 [ 00344] In one embodiment, should the Portfolio Conversation Liquidity Index be
14 zero or indeed stagnates (no changes over time) then this means the Portfolio is illiquid.
15 Example Portfolio Conversation Capital Index
16 [ 00345] In one embodiment, the Portfolio Conversation Capital Index monitors the
17 trends for the accumulative asset share price movements covering: Portfolio
18 Conversation Assets, Portfolio Conversation AI Entity Assets.
19 [ 00346] In one embodiment, the Portfolio Conversation Capital Index changes
20 whenever Conversation Assets are added or removed to the production portfolio and an
21 Asset Share Price has been applied or Conversation AI Entity Assets are added or
22 removed to the production portfolio and an Asset Share Price has been applied or Asset
23 Share has been traded. 1 [0034 ] In one embodiment, the latest Asset Share Price used fo a transaction is
2 applied to all the Shares of the Asset: Total Asset Shares * Latest Current Share Price;
3 the currency used is determined by the Portfolio Owner.
4 [ 00348 ] In one embodiment, the Portfolio Conversation Capital Index is the
5 accumulative calculated share value for all the Assets within the Portfolio.
6 [00349 ] ln one embodiment, the Portfolio Conversation Capital Index can show
7 trends by: hour, day, month, year. a [00350 ] In one embodiment, these trends can be drilled down into the Asset Share
9 transactions. 0 [00351] In one embodiment, should the Portfolio Conversation Capital Index be1 zero then this means the Portfolio has not been capitalized. 2 Example Portfolio Conversation Future Index
3 [00352] In one embodiment, the Portfolio Conversation Future Index is the future4 trend for the accumulation of the following: Portfolio Conversation Liquidity Index, 5 Portfolio Conversation Capital Index, The Portfolio Future = Portfolio Conversation6 Liquidity Index + Portfolio Conversation Capital Index and is calculated forward based7 on past trends covering weekly, monthly and yearly projections. The Portfolioa Conversation Future Index can be adjusted by weightings over time set by the Portfolio.9 The primary purpose of the Portfolio Conversation Future Index is for Asset Share0 Investors and derivative trades. Forward projections may also be calculated with1 Portfolio based adjustments for: Portfolio Conversation Asset Index, Portfolio2 Conversation Asset Interaction Index, Portfolio Conversation Asset Monetary Index , 3 Portfolio Conversation AI Entity Performance Index , Portfolio Conversation AI Entity Interaction Performance Index, Portfolio Conversation AI Entity Monetary Performance Index, Portfolio Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index [00353] In one embodiment, should the Portfolio Conversation Future Index be zero then this means the Portfolio is illiquid. EXAMPLE METHOD FOR DETERMINING A EXCHANGE CONVERSATION ASSET INDEX
[00354] In one embodiment, the method for the determination of an Exchange Portfolio Conversation Asset Index is the aggregation and portfolio-based weightings for: Exchange Conversation Asset Index = Sura of the Portfolio
Conversation Asset Indexes that have been branded by the Exchange and are within the rules of engagement defined earlier.
Exchange Conversation Asset Interaction Index = Sum of the
Portfolio Conversation Asset Interaction Indexes that have been branded by the Exchange and are within the rules of engagement defined earlier.
Exchange Conversation Asset Monetary Index = Sum of the Portfolio Conversation Asset Monetary Indexes that have been branded by the Exchange and are within the rules of engagement defined earlier.
Exchange Conversation AI Entity Performance Index = Sum of the
Portfolio Conversation AI Entity Performance Indexes that have been branded by the Exchange and are within the rules of
engagement defined earlier.
Exchange Conversation AI Entity Interaction Performance Index = Sum of the Portfolio Conversation Interaction AI Entity
Performance Indexes that have been branded by the Exchange and are within the rules of engagement defined earlier.
Exchange Conversation AI Entity Monetary Performance Index = Sum of the Portfolio Conversation AI Entity Monetary Performance
Indexes that have been branded by the Exchange and are within the rules of engagement defined earlier.
Exchange Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index = Exchange
Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index + Sum of the Exchange
Conversation AI Entity Monetary Indexes that have been branded by the Exchange and are within the rules of engagement defined
earlier.
[00355] The Exchange Conversation Asset contains all the permutations associated with Conversation Assets and Conversation AI Entity Assets covered earlier. Example Exchange Conversation Tariffs
[00356] In one embodiment, the Exchange Conversation Asset governs the 1 monetary rules of engagement that apply to all the associated Portfolio Conversatio
2 Assets and the Portfolio AI Entity Assets that have been covered earlier for the
3 individual asset classes.
4 Example Exchange Interaction Weightings
5 [00357] In one embodiment, the Exchange Conversation Asset governs the
6 weighting rules of engagement that apply to all the associated Portfolio Conversation
7 Assets and the Portfolio AI Entity Assets that have been covered earlier for the
8 individual asset classes. These weighting rules can be governed by the Exchange and
9 can be established for any permutation of influence including:
10 [00358] Exchange Conversation Asset Feedback - this is treated in the same way
1 1 as for Portfolio Conversation Asset Feedback. The Exchange can deploy the same
12 Feedback standards across all or selected Portfolios or empower selected Portfolios to n deploy their own Feedback standards.
14 [00359] Exchange Conversation Asset Review - this is treated in the same way as
15 for Portfolio Conversation Asset Review. The Exchange can deploy the same Review
16 standards across all or selected Portfolios or empower selected Portfolios to deploy their
17 own Review standards.
18 [00360] Exchange Conversation Asset Outcomes - this is treated in the same way
19 as for Portfolio Conversation Asset Outcomes. The Exchange can deploy the same
20 Outcomes standards across all or selected Portfolios or empower selected Portfolios to
21 deploy their own Outcomes standards.
22 [00361] In one embodiment, further weightings applied in a similar way to the
23 above can be given to the following and again can be varied according to associated variables: Exchange Conversation Display Advert, Exchange Conversation Widget, Exchange Conversation Event. An Exchange Conversation Asset can combine other variables such as country and any permutation of the above to apply weightings to the Exchange Interactions. [00362] The approach to these weighting for Conversation Asset Interactions also applied to the Conversation AI Entity Interactions, which can be treated the same or at a Exchange chosen variant. [00363] The Exchange Weightings may not be applied to the monetary indexes as is simply a monetary actualization. Example Exchange Conversation Liquidity Index
[00364] In one embodiment, the Exchange Conversation Liquidity Index monitors the trends for the accumulative monetary movements covering: Exchange Conversation Asset Monetary Index, Exchange Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index. [00365] In one embodiment, as the Exchange Conversation Liquidity Index is updated as monetary changes occur the Exchange Conversation Liquidity Index can show trends by: hour, day, month, year. [00366] In one embodiment, these trends can be drilled down into the Exchange Conversation Asset Monetary Index and the Exchange Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index. In turn these Indexes can be drill down into the actual transactions detailed earlier, including by Portfolio Assets. [00367] In one embodiment, should the Exchange Conversation Liquidity Index be zero or indeed stagnates (no changes over time) then this means the Exchange is illiquid. Example Exchange Conversation Capital Index 1 [00368] In one embodiment, the Exchange Conversation Capital Index monitors
2 the trends for the accumulative asset share price movements covering: Exchange
3 Conversation Assets, Exchange Conversation AI Entity Assets. [00369] In one embodiment, the Exchange Conversation Capital Index changes 5 whenever portfolio assets are added or removed to the production exchange and an e asset share price has been applied conversation assets are added or removed to the
7 production exchange and an asset share price has been applied or conversation AI entity
8 assets are added or removed to the production exchange and an asset share price has
9 been applied or an asset share has been traded. 0 [00370] In one embodiment, the latest Asset Share Price used for a transaction is1 applied to all the Shares of the Asset: Total Asset Shares * Latest Current Share Price;2 the currency used is determined by the Exchange Owner. 3 [00371] In one embodiment, the Exchange Conversation Capital Index is the4 accumulative calculated share value for all the Assets within the Exchange. 5 [00372] In one embodiment, the Exchange Conversation Capital Index can show6 trends by: hour, day, month, year. 7 [00373] In one embodiment, these trends can be drilled down into the Asset Share8 transactions. 9 [00374] In one embodiment, should the Exchange Conversation Capital Index be0 zero then this means the Exchange has not been capitalized. 1 Example Exchange Conversation Future Index
2 [00375] In one embodiment, the Exchange Conversation Future Index is the future3 trend for the accumulation of the following: Exchange Conversation Liquidity Index, Exchange Conversation Capital Index. The Exchange Future = Exchange Conversation Liquidity Index + Exchange Conversation Capital Index and is calculated forward based on past trends covering weekly, monthly and yearly projections. The Exchange Conversation Future Index can be adjusted by weightings over time set by the Exchange. The primary purpose of the Exchange Conversation Future Index is for Asset Share Investors and derivative trades. [00376] In one implementation, forward projections are also calculated with Exchange based adjustments for: Exchange Conversation Asset Index, Exchange Conversation Asset Interaction Index, Exchange Conversation Asset Monetary Index, Exchange Conversation AI Entity Performance Index, Exchange Conversation AI Entity Interaction Performance Index, Exchange Conversation AI Entity Monetary Performance Index, Exchange Conversation AI Entity Monetary Index. [00377] In one embodiment, should the Exchange Conversation Future Index be zero then this means the Exchange is illiquid. Example Method for Asset Status
[00378] In one embodiment, the status of all Asset Classes includes: Production - status needed for trading and indexes, Pre-production, Withdrawn, Suspension , Archived, Deleted. [00379] In one embodiment, the overriding sequence for changing status in descending order of influence is as follows: Exchange (higher level accreditation), Portfolio (lower level of accreditation), Individual (non accredited) [00380] In one embodiment, if there are shares involving multiple ownership associated with a given Asset then the Asset cannot be Archived or Deleted until 1 agreement has been reached with all shareholders.
2 [00381] In one embodiment, the Exchange and Portfolio can customize their own
3 rules for the Asset Status classes.
4 [00382] In one embodiment, if a Exchange Asset Class is Withdrawn, Suspended,
5 Archived or Deleted that status applies to all Assets within its control and thus includes:
6 Conversation Assets, Conversation AI Entity Assets, Portfolio Assets.
7 [00383] In one embodiment, if a Portfolio Asset Class is Withdrawn, Suspended, s Archived or Deleted that status applies to all Assets within its control and thus includes:
9 Conversation Assets, Conversation AI Entity Assets. 0 [00384] In one embodiment, within a Portfolio or Exchange an Asset Owner has1 the option, subject to Portfolio and/or Exchange conditions to transfer their Assets to2 another Exchange or Portfolio or indeed return to unaccredited status. However, should3 there be restriction clauses with the Asset Shareholders Agreement that the Transfer4 cannot occur unless these conditions are satisfied. 5 [00385] In one embodiment, assets can be assigned a banned status by a Portfolio6 or an Exchange. 7 [00386] In one embodiment, assets can be assigned an age suitability status by as Portfolio or an Exchange. 9 [00387] In one embodiment, assets can be assigned restrictive access status by a0 Portfolio or an Exchange. 1 [00388] Example Method for Asset Account Management
2 [00389] In one embodiment, each individual and Asset have their own account that contain all access rights, authorization rights, approval rights, control rights, approval rights, share ownership rights and monetary rights. [ 00390] In one embodiment, the status of all Accounts includes : [00391] Live [ 00392] Suspension [00393 ] Archived [00394] Deleted [00395] In one embodiment, the overriding sequence for changing status of an Account in descending order of influence is as follows: [00396] Exchange (higher level accreditation) [ 0397] Portfolio (lower level of accreditation) [00398] Individual (non accredited) [00399] In one embodiment, an Account that has multiple owners cannot be archived or deleted until agreement has been reached with all other Account holders. [00400 ] In one embodiment, the Exchange and Portfolio can customize their own rules for the Accounts within their own domain. [00401] In one embodiment, within a Portfolio or Exchange an Account Owner has the option, subject to Portfolio and/or Exchange conditions to transfer their Accounts to another Exchange or Portfolio or indeed return to non Portfolio or Exchange status. However, should there be restriction clauses with the Account Agreement that the Transfer cannot occur unless these conditions are satisfied. 1 [00402] In one embodiment, accounts can be assigned a minimum age for
2 qualification but can be setup in conjunction with an authorized persona such as lawyer,
3 parent or guardian.
4 [00403] In one embodiment, accounts can support multiple currencies and sub-
5 accounts such as reward bearing. Transfers between sub-accounts are allowable subject β to Exchange or Portfolio Rules.
7 [00404] In one embodiment, the Exchange or Portfolio may impose restrictions
8 regarding transfers from the individual account.
9 [00405] In one embodiment, an Exchange or Portfolio may have a Prime Account0 which automatically receives all or partial monetary value from accounts within its1 domain. In some cases, the individual accounts within their domain can be regarded as2 Shadow Accounts. For example: an Exchange is owned by a Corporation that owns all3 the monies generated from the Assets but wants to retain Shadow Accounts for4 individual performance. 5 Example Method for Leveraging Anonymous Conversation Data
6 [00406] In one embodiment, the Conversation Data, as already covered is stored7 anonymously with other data tags such as Country Code. 8 [00407] In one embodiment, the ownership of this Conversational Data belongs9 with the Conversation Asset share ownership as already covered. 0 [00408] In one embodiment, however, the Portfolio and the Exchange can have1 terms and conditions, which give them rights over the Anonymous Data in exchange for2 membership and / or monetization. 3 [00409] In one embodiment, a high level of semantic meaning the Portfolio and or 1 the Exchange may well set codification standards for the user generated conversation
2 and its use of Display Ads, Widgets and Events. By establishing the standards of these
3 codes enables pick-up data to be obtained during the Digital Conversation. This Pick-up
4 Data enables higher forms of intelligence to be derived in context to actual
5 Conversational-Steps. When combining this Pick-up Data with the Anonymous
6 Conversational Data could provide deep hindsights, insights and foresights this
7 increasing the value through aggregation across many different types of Conversations. a [00410] In one embodiment, those Portfolios and Exchanges that establish the
9 deployment of the aggregation of data through their own standardization increase the0 probability of generating high forms of new value exchange. 1 Example Method for Short Learning Cycles
2 [00411] In one embodiment, the method for increasing the knowledge within a3 Conversation Asset or a collection of Conversation Assets is based on the following:4 Analysis of Digital Conversation Usage Patterns and the aggregation of Conversation-s Strings, Analysis of Conversational Outcomes and Conversational End-Points, Analysis6 if timings associated with Conversation- Steps, Feedback: structured or unstructured,7 External sources of influence. 8 [00412] In one embodiment, the Conversation Asset can be extended through:,9 Modification of script, Extension of script within the Conversation Asset, Extension of0 script through linking with New Conversation Asset(s), Extension through linking with1 other existing Conversation Assets. 2 [00413] In one embodiment, as the Conversation Asset when applied to knowledge3 is an aggregation of 'best' human knowledge then when that knowledge is immature or limited then the learning cycles can be relatively short as changes are applied. [00414] In one embodiment, the change controls are imposed within Portfolios and Exchanges covering: empowered change with review checks, empowered changes with the option for reviews, controlled changes with enforced review or reviews [00415] In one embodiment, changes are undertaken within a pre-production status, which includes a test to ensure that the Conversation AI Entity and the Conversation Asset are synchronized without technical mishap. [00416] In one embodiment, once the changes have been successfully applied then the respective Asset Negotiator or a delegated person has the authority to release into production. [00417] In one embodiment, the Digital Conversation is stored within the version of the Asset change and is aggregated for the overall Asset. In this way, comparison analysis can be undertaken to ascertain the impact thus accelerating the learning cycles if appropriate. [00418] In one embodiment, the script for Digital Conversations can be represented in multiple languages. When multiple languages are present then checks are made when changes are made to ensure that the changes are applied to the other language derivatives. Example Method for Finding the Best-Fit Digital Conversation
[00419] In one embodiment, the Portfolios and Exchanges can establish a taxonomic tree-based structure so that the Conversational Asset Author can link the Asset Wrapper to the final contextual node within the taxonomic structure. [00420] In one embodiment, where a Conversation Asset is best represented by multiple taxonomic nodes then the method is reapplied multiple times. [00421 ] In one embodiment, when multiple nodes are referenced then these are weighted to reflect the level of relevancy for a Digital Conversation. [00422] In one embodiment, the Conversation Asset Author can extend the end- point Taxonomic Node with a customized taxonomic tree-structure to advance the level of systemic precision. [00423 ] In one embodiment, where there are more that one Conversation Asset associated with an end-node or multiple-end node point then the list of Conversation Assets can be listed by the following: date & time of creation or last change, owner, author(s), accreditor(s), negotiator(s), AI entity, shareholder(s), feedback rating, inter exchanges - accredited asset indexes including:, exchange conversation asset index, exchange conversation asset interaction index, exchange conversation asset monetary index, exchange conversation AI entity performance index, exchange conversation AI entity interaction performance index, exchange conversation AI entity monetary performance index, exchange conversation AI entity monetary index, intra exchange portfolios - accredited asset indexes including: exchange portfolio conversation asset index, exchange portfolio conversation asset interaction index, exchange portfolio conversation asset monetary index, exchange portfolio conversation AI entity performance index, exchange portfolio conversation AI entity interaction performance index, exchange portfolio conversation AI entity monetary performance index, exchange portfolio conversation AI entity monetary index, portfolio - accredited asset indexes including portfolio conversation asset index, portfolio conversation asset interaction index, portfolio conversation asset monetary index, portfolio conversation AI entity 1 performance index, portfolio conversation AI entity interaction performance index,
2 portfolio conversation AI entity monetary performance index, portfolio conversation AI
3 entity monetary index. DCM-Platform Dialogue Agent Creation
5 [00424] FIGURE 9 provides a logic flow diagram illustrating creating and s capturing dialogues within embodiments of the DCM-Platform. In one embodiment, 7 the consumer may submit consumer dialogue contents to an AI agent (and/or DCM- s Platform) 913 via a telephone call, an online chatting platform, a messenger, a social
9 media platform, and/or the like, as discussed in FIGURE 2 A. 0 [00425] Within implementations, the AI agent may receive the dialogue response1 from a consumer and perform data analysis. In alternative implementations, the DCM-2 Platform may receive a marketing request 901 from a client and perform the data3 analysis to devise a marketing plan for the client 902. In one implementation, the4 DCM-Platform may create a dialogue agent application based on the client needs 905 5 [00426] For example, a hair dresser manufacturer may submit a request to thes DCM-Platform for AI marketing service for their new hair dresser product. The7 manufacturer may provide their marketing budget, product information, and/or the like8 to the DCM-Platform. The DCM-Platform may determine the number of AI agents to9 employ, the platform to deploy the AI agent, and create a dialogue agent accordingly. 0 [00427] The DCM-Platform may then populate the created dialogue agent on1 search engines and social media 910 and implement the dialogue agent to capture2 consumer-AI interactive dialogues 915, as further illustrated in FIGURES 10A-11L. [ 00428] In one implementation, the created dialogue agent application may automatically capture and request for client update 920, wherein the client may provide updated product information 925, as further illustrated in FIGURE 13. The dialogue agent may incorporate the updated information 920 into the dialogue application, and devise interactive dialogue based marketing strategies 930, as further illustrated in FIGURES 15A-F. [ 00429 ] FIUGRE 10A-10F-3 provide diagrams illustrating creation of a dialogue agent application within embodiments of the DCM-Platform. In one embodiment, to create a dialogue agent application, the DCM-Platform may initialize a dialogue agent based on client needs 1005, and launch dialogue tree visualization and dialogue script panel 1010. For example, as shown in FIGURE loB-C, a user interface comprising a split screen that provides dialogue tree visualisation and a dialogue script panel may be provided, wherein the left half of the screen may provide a dialogue tree 1035 illustrating the evolution of dialogue steps, and the right half of the screen may illustrate the dialogue script 1306, including information with regard to the dialogue agent 1037, subject 1038, key words 1039, and/or the like [00430 ] In one implementation, the DCM-Platform may generate dialogue scripts by completing a dialogue tree 1012, e.g., joining all the dots within a dialogue tree as shown in FIGURE 10D. For example, as shown in FIGURE 10D, a dot 1041 in the dialogue tree may comprise a dialogue line from the AI agent "Hi, this is your stylist and an ending dot 1042 comprises a line "Thanks and see you." The dialogue may be considered complete when an ending dot 1042 is connected in the dialogue tree. [00431] In one implementation, upon completing a dialogue tree, the DCM- 1 Platform may set social media parameters for the dialogue agent 1016. For example, as
2 shown in FIGURE lOE, the DCM-Platform may add dialogue agent 1045 to a variety of
3 social media platforms, such as, but not limited to Tiny URL, FOLLOW ME, Twitter,
4 Facebook, Blogger, Linkedln, Tell Wiki, Mobile, and/or the like. In one implementation,
5 the DCM-Platform may configure the social media parameters based on client requests.
6 In alternative implementations, the DCM-Platform may determine the social media
7 deployment based on client marketing budget.
8 [00432] In one implementation, the DCM-Platform may create dialogue agent
9 application 1018, which may be implemented via automatically generating a web-service
10 1018(a), automatically connecting the dialogue web-service to an avatar front end
11 1018(b), based on which a dialogue agent application may be completed 1018(c).
12 [00433] In a further implementation, the dialogue agent application may be
13 created within a dialogue cloud with key words which may be picked up by search
14 engines (e.g., Bing, Yahoo, Google, etc.) 1020(a). For example, as shown in FIGURE
15 ioF-1, the dialogue script discussed in FIGURES 10B-E may be associated with a
16 keyword "hairdresser," which may be populated onto Google search for products,
17 services related to "hairdresser" for the AI agent "Natalie" 1050, and the AI agent
18 "Natalie" may in turn utilize the search results to generate dialogue lines to provide
19 information with regard to the "hairdresser" to a consumer.
20 [00434] In another further implementation, the dialogue agent may be populated
21 onto social media platforms 1020(b). For example, FIGURE 10F-2 illustrates an
22 automated population of a micro logging and social networking service (i.e., Twitter)3 using a shortened URL (e.g., Tiny URL, etc. ). 1 [00435] In another further implementation, the dialogue agent may create mobile
2 applications accessible from the internet and smart phone applications (e.g., Apple
3 iPhone, Blackberry, Evo, etc.). For example, as shown in FIGURE 10F-3, a dialogue
4 agent avatar 1055 may be displayed on a consumer's smart phone, and a list of Internet
5 search results on related products and/or services 1060 may be displayed in contextual
6 adds-on alongside the dialogue avatar.
7 [00436] Upon completing creation a dialogue agent application, the DCM-Platform a may also generate wrapper description identification 1020(d) of the dialogue agent
9 application. For example, the wrapper of a conversation asset, an AI entity asset, a0 portfolio asset, and/or an exchange asset that contains the created AI agent application1 may be updated with the description of the application accordingly. 2 [00437] In a further implementation, the DCM-Platform may register the3 generated AI agent application on the virtual asset exchange platform 1022, and the4 financial trading platform 1024, by generating a wrapper for the agent application as5 described within embodiments of FIGURES 4B-7C. 6 [00438] FIGURE 11A provides a logic flow illustrating generating an intelligent7 dialogue within embodiments of the DCM-Platform. In one embodiment, to start a8 dialogue and/or to respond to a consumer submitted dialogue line, the dialogue agent9 may retrieve a dialogue line 1105 from the dialogue application. The dialogue0 application may determine whether the on-going dialogue contains an If-Then-Else1 logic 1108. 2 [00439] If there is an If-Then-Else logic, the agent may retrieve options for the3 conditional logic 1115, and determines whether the consumer submitted dialogue step 1 contains an outcome. If there is an outcome, the agent may select a verbal outcome for
2 each option to present to the consumer 1118. Otherwise, the agent may resort to a
3 search engine to generate a hyperlink outcome for the consumer 1119, and/or direct the
4 consumer to another AI agent to continue the conversation.
5 [00440 ] For example, as shown in FIGURE 11B, the dialogue agent may receive two
6 potential responses from a consumer "confirm appointment" 1130 or "cannot attend"
7 1135, each associated with a response 1136 and 1137 as shown in FIGURE 11C. In
8 another example, as shown in FIGURE 11D, the dialogue agent may generate a
9 hyperlink 1140, e.g., to suggest the consumer reschedule the appointment. In another0 example, as shown in FIGURE 11E, the dialogue agent may provide a hyperlink to direct1 the consumer to another AI agent "John" 1142. 2 [00441] In one implementation, to help optimise conventional search, the dialogue3 agent may determine whether a search is requested in the conversation 1120, e.g.,4 whether a consumer inquiry is received, and/or an aid is available to capture search5 logic, outputs and comments with the dialogue agent. In one implementation, the6 dialogue agent may populate key words onto a search engine (e.g., Google, etc.) for7 results, and generate a dialogue line for the consumer based on the Google search8 results 1123. 9 [ 00442] In one implementation, search engine may not return desirable results.0 For example, FIGURE 11F illustrates a dialogue search that Google Search failed to1 match the search need, wherein the agent's search on "hair salon and stylist" in "Maldon,2 Essex, UK" does not return any result. As shown in FIGURE 11G, the dialogue agent3 may generate a dialogue line based on partial key words search results when Google search failed n 22. For example, as shown in FIGURE 11G, when the Google search "hairdresser Maldon Essex hair extension" fails to return desirable results, the dialogue agent may generate a link comprising a list of local hairdressers 1160. [oo443] In an alternative implementation, the dialogue agent may provide alternate questions to the consumer to obtain information 1125. For example, as shown in FIGURE 11H, the dialogue agent may generate a line "what type of hair specialist would you like" to obtain further information to narrow down the search 1165, and thus provide relevant search results based on consumer provided preferences 1170 as shown in FIGURE ill. [00444] In one implementation, the dialogue agent may then update an asset wrapper with the generated search results and the dialogue lines 1127. [00445] FIGURES 11J-L further illustrate generating a dialogue comprising an If- Then-Else logic within embodiments of the DCM-Platform. FIGURE 11J-K provide an exemplar user interface screen for dialogue agent creation. [00446] In one implementation, as shown in FIGURE 11J-K, a dialogue agent application developer may create a dialogue logic by building a decision tree associated with search engine results. For example, a dialogue line "Do you want to know about the cheapest battery charger?" may be generated as a dialogue step for a consumer as the node "1" in the decision tree; two conditional responses from the consumer "Yes" and "No" are associated with this question, and thus form a bipartite branches "2" and "3" in the decision tree. For each branch, the dialogue agent may associate a search result link to be incorporated as a dialogue response for the conditional branch.
[00447] m one implementation, the dialogue builder may be created by a human 1 developer. In another implementation, the dialogue applications may form an Internet
2 community to allow Wiki submission of dialogue lines and conditions. [00448] In one implementation, the search associated with each dialogue step may
4 be refined progressively based on the consumer submitted feedback. For example, as
5 shown in FIGURE 11L, the dialogue agent may start a query on "best battery chargers,"
6 when the consumer triggers the branch "Yes"; the search may be refined to a query on
7 "D-size best battery charger" when the consumer triggers the conditional branch by
8 indicating "D-size."
9 [00449] For example, in one implementation, an exemplar XML implementation of
10 an If-Then-Else logic in the dialogue may take a form similar to:
11 if cheapest_batter_charger="yes"
12 display the following text, "are you interested in D size battery
13 chargers?"
14 query www.google.com "cheapest battery charger"
15
16 if cheapest_batter___charger="NO"
17 display the following text, "Are you interested in the best
18 battery chargers."
19 query www.google.com "best battery charger"
20
21 if D-size_battery="Yes"
22 display the following text, "please visit www.d-
23 size_battery.com/...."
24
25 if D~size_battery="No"
26 display the following text, "Thank you for visiting our website." 27
28
29 end if statements
30
31 [00450] In a further implementation, the DCM-Platform may facilitate a consumer
32 to search for an available dialogue agent in a similar manner as discussed in FIGURE
33 11L. For example, a consumer may submit "battery charger," and the DCM-Platform
34 may prompt a search on its database for a dialogue agent that can assist on topics 1 related to "battery chargers."
2 [00451] FIGURES 12A-12D provide diagrams illustrating dialogue analytics within
3 embodiments of the DCM-Platform. In one embodiment, the dialogue agent may
4 initiate dialogue analytics to drive the consumer-AI interaction 1205. For example, the
5 dialogue agent may retrieve recorded dialogue actions in related topics 1210, including
6 dialogue action recorded anonymously for large scale analytics 1210(a), linked to user
7 for profiling analytics 1210(b), and/or linked to dialogue agent for value analytics
8 1210(c).
9 [00452] The dialogue agent may then determine a dialogue pathway of the0 retrieved dialogue 1215. For example, FIGURES i2B(a)-(d) illustrate examples of1 pathways taken by a consumer interacting with a dialogue agent, wherein each node2 denotes a dialogue action/line in the dialogue tree discussed in FIGURE 10C. For3 example, FIGURE i2B(a) shows a dialogue pathway wherein the consumer terminated4 the interaction before reaching an outcome. 5 [00453] Based on the dialogue pathway, the dialogue agent may determine6 dialogue parameters 1220, such as, but not limited to an actual number of dialogue7 actions in the interaction 1220(a), an amount of time taken for each dialogue-actions 1220(b), and/or the like. For example, as shown in FIGURE i2B(c), the number of9 dialogue actions may be the number of edges along a dialogue pathway, and the amount0 of time for each dialogue-action is illustrated in FIGURE i2B(d). 1 [00454] In °ne implementation, the dialogue agent may determine whether2 multiple consumers, and/or multiple dialogue pathways are included in the dialogue. IF3 yes, the dialogue analytics may aggregate decision-pathways across multiple consumers 1 interacting with the dialogue agent 1225, as shown in FIGURES 12C.
2 [00455] The dialogue agent may further analyze value of the dialogue based on the
3 parameters, pathways of the dialogue 1230, and update the related asset wrapper
4 accordingly. FIGURE 12D provide an exemplary screen shot illustrating a visualisation
5 with multiple dimensions of dialogue analytics within embodiments of the DCM-
6 Platform.
7 [00456] FIGURE 13 illustrates an exemplar diagram illustrating capturing client a update within embodiments of the DCM-Platform. For example, a dialogue agent's
9 knowledge may be updated, via incorporating search results, and/or the like. As shown0 in FIGURE 13, the dialogue agent may capture new information related to the client1 while performing searches on a search engine (e.g., Google, etc.) 1305, and then send a2 request to the client 1310 for updated product information, so that the dialogue agent3 may incorporate the new information into the dialogue application to advertise it to4 consumers. 5 [00457] FIGURES 14A-B illustrate exemplar user interfaces within embodimentss of the DCM-Platform. In one embodiment, a DCM-Platform user, e.g., an AI advertising7 company employee, a dialogue agent application developer, etc., may operate thes dialogue applications with a personalised action bar 1405 as shown in FIGURE 14A. In9 one implementation, the action bar 1405 may comprise a "My Hub" 1410 as a way of0 monitoring activity and tasks, a dialogue analytics button 1415 for dialogue pathway1 analysis, a list of generated dialogue agents, a drop down list of dialogue activities in2 foreign languages 1420, and/or the like. 3 [00458] In another implementation, the "My Hub" application 1410 may provide a 1 dashboard view for the DCM-Platform users to track activities of the dialogue agents
2 and the associated interactions with the consumers. For example, FIGURE 14B shows
3 the "My Hub" feature may show "My Followers" 1430 from social media platforms, a list
4 of "My dialogue Agents" 1435, a list of feedback alerts 1440, a list of dialogue agent
5 research on different topics and searches 1445, a chart illustrating international s dialogue agent performance 1450, a list of notes on captured Google searches and
7 outputs 1455, and/or the like.
8 [00459] FIGURES 15A-E provide diagrams illustrating various implementations of
9 interactive marketing via DCM-Platform. In one implementation, business, such as0 manufacturers, retailers, service providers, and/or the like, may use the dialogue agents1 to sell and support products via web-based marketing, as shown in FIGURE 15A. For2 example, web-based search engines, such as Yahoo, Google, Bing, etc., may retrieve key3 words from the dialogue agents and feed search results including advertised products4 information to the dialogue agents. 5 [00460] In a further implementation, interactive marketing may be realized via6 Internet communities. For example, the DCM-Platform may use Internet communities,7 recommendation engines and services, and social networks (e.g., Stumble Upon, Digg,s etc.) to stimulate global networking of favourite dialogue agents, e.g., by selecting9 related topics via Stumble Upon as shown in FIGURE 15 B. 0 [00461] In another example, each dialogue agent may have its own social media1 identity (e.g., Twitter, eBlogger, etc.) and followers, and thus form feedback loops from2 its followers automatically linked to Twitter, as shown in FIGURE 15C. In this way, the3 dialogue agent and/or the DCM-Platform may revise the marketing plan, e.g., the 1 content, language, presentation, format, of the dialogue, etc., based on consumer
2 feedbacks on a real-time basis.
3 [00462] In one implementation, when a consumer has an activity via the social
4 media, e.g., update his status indicating a demand of service "hair extension," as shown
5 in FIGURE 15 D, the dialogue agents may receive the status update and automatically
6 generate dialogue lines providing information of "hair extension" services featuring hair
7 salons which may be advertising clients of the DCM-Platform. For another example, the
8 dialogue agents may communicate via social networks to update their stored knowledge
9 and information, as shown in FIGURE 15D. Thus dialogue agents and consumers may it) form a community and group on social media platforms to offer advice and share
11 knowledge of brand products and services.
12 [00463] In a further implementation, authors of dialogue agents may use their
13 blogs for publishing details about their advancements and interactions. In a further
14 implementation, the DCM-Platform may connect to Wikis (e.g., Wikipedia, etc.) to
15 include dialogue agents that are relevant to a subject matter, e.g., a dialogue wiki
16 application. For example, as shown in FIGURE 15E, the Wikipedia entry of the founder
17 of Artificial intelligence 1535, an AI dialogue agent 1540 may be associated with the is Wikipedia entry to provide interactive knowledge to a reader. For example, a reader
19 may ask questions with regard to the topic, e.g., "what are major academic journals on
20 artificial intelligence?", etc., and the dialogue agent 1540 may then generate answers to
21 the reader.
22 [00464] In a further implementation, the DCM-Platform may form a dialogue
23 agent application community to build dialogue agent applications, enhance existing ΐ 1 2 t applications with dialogue agents and/or the like. For example, the dialogue agent
2 applications may be sold on an Internet store, e.g., the iTunes store, etc., and business

5 [00465] FIGURES 16A-D provide diagrams illustrating dialogue knowledge s accumulation within embodiments of the DCM-Platform.
7 [00466] FIGURE 16A provides an example dialogue for medical assistance within a embodiments of the DCM-Platform. In one embodiment, as shown in FIGURE 16A, a
9 dialogue between a consumer and a medical consultant dialogue agent may start with
10 the dialogue agent sending greetings and requesting the consumer select a symptom
1 1 1605. For example, the consumer may select whether he has developed a fever.
12 [ 00467] The dialogue agent may further provide instructions to describe symptoms
13 1608, e.g., to explain what is a fever to the consumer. If the consumer indicates a fever,
14 the dialogue agent may respond "Do not worry" and request the consumer select an age
15 status 1615, e.g., whether the consumer is under 12 years old. If yes, the dialogue agent 15 may direct the conversation to a pediatrician dialogue agent 1620. Otherwise, the
17 dialogue agent may link to a knowledge database and provide medical instructions on
18 fever to the consumer 1625. In a further implementation, the dialogue agent may
19 generate a search list of physician contacts to the consumer.
20 [00468] In another implementation, if the consumer does not select fever, the
21 dialogue agent may direct the consumer to a physician dialogue agent for further
22 assistance 1630, or suggest the consumer see a physician and provide a list of physician
23 contacts. 1 [00469] In one embodiment, the DCM-Platform may create ecosystems of a new
2 type of virtual agent application that enables just-in-time knowledge. For example, each
3 virtual agent application has its' own decision-tree containing scripted dialogue that can
4 be "dynamically linked" to other applications, which facilitates the knowledge acquirer
5 to reach their specific relevant, targeted outcomes, as shown in FIGURE 16B.
6 [00470] In one implementation, whereas search is barely a one-step interaction.
7 these virtual agent applications use a combination of natural and scripted language for a a meaningful conversation with consumers including decision outcomes, as shown in
9 FIGURE 16C. 0 [00471] As shown in FIGURE 16C, when a virtual agent application engages in1 conversation, the acquirer interacts with a dialogue-step at a time so they only 'see' the2 selected pathway, e.g., a pathway selected by the consumer (FIGURE i6B(a)). Each3 conversation is captured in a decision-string, as shown in FIGURE i6B(b). In one4 implementation, the dialogue with a person is streamlined along a decision-pathway5 that can be as long or short as needed and, if necessary based on questions answered,6 one virtual agent can automatically hand off to another virtual agent on a different7 decision-string with more relevant knowledge, and a successful dialogue may end with as decision-outcome and thus presents the optimal point for monetization, as shown in9 FIGURE i6B(b). 0 [00472] In one embodiment, the DCM-Platform may obtain and store knowledge1 to form a world knowledge bank, e.g., a knowledge database, as shown in FIGURE 16D.2 For example, each virtual agent app may have an API link with the world knowledge3 bank for access to the latest version of their knowledge, the recording of their dialogue t and the orchestration of events such as adverts and transactions. The knowledge bank
2 may be monetized through virtual agent apps across markets.
3 [00473] For example, via the knowledge bank, DCM -Platform may provide
4 knowledge delivery as professional advisory services by virtual agent apps across global
5 health in paramedical, world trade paralegal and world trade accounting services,
6 and/or the like; and establish consumer market retail brands provide knowledge
7 delivery through virtual agent apps for consumers across consumables including
8 electronics (e.g. digital cameras), white goods, clothing, travel, etc. leading to smarter
9 online transactions.
0 [00474] In further implementations, the DCM-Platform may monetize the1 knowledge bank with revenues generated from dialogue advertising, including2 multimedia advertisement at each dialogue-step, tariffs on high quality knowledge3 exceed the price-per- display, price-per-click and location-based pricing CPM rates,4 and/or the like. The DCM-Platform may further generate revenue from Dialogue5 Analytics for business intelligence (value from emergent dialogue, patterns and flows), ,6 Transactions Commissions (dialogue transaction commission per dialogue-step,7 microfinance administration charges), corporate services (subscription charges to access8 knowledge portfolios, licensed revenues through virtual agent platforms, corporate9 internal knowledge exchange: priced per conversation), knowledge stock exchanges0 (trading of virtual agent app shares - several owners of each virtual agent, pass-thru1 transactions such as a financial products, derivatives, securities), and/or the like. 2 Alternative Embodiments of Dialogue Agent Applications [00475] Further implementations of the DCM-Platform may include a white-box artificial intelligence engine associated with a dialogue avatar. The AI engine may support advertisement inventory for each dialogue-action, and an API may be created to link with an advertisement engine enabling dynamic ad placement and pricing. [00476] For another example, The AI Engine may support media placement for selective dialogue-actions, and placement of movement codes for selective dialogue- actions. [00477] In another implementation, the AI engine may support placement of semantic codes for selective dialogue-actions, wherein the semantic codes provides the basis for semantic analytics to generate greater insights and learning. The AI engine may further support placement of ecommerce codes for selective dialogue-actions. [00478] In one implementation, the AI engine may generate ecommerce codes used to orchestrate 3rd party ecommerce services for a targeted product or service. The AI engine may further be extended with an API to link dialogue agents into virtual communities for 7/24 accessibility. [00479] ln further implementations, the AI engine may support automated handover to another dialogue-tree, which facilitates an infinite number of dialogue pathways to be created and captured during the interaction [00480] In further implementations, the DCM-Platform may comprise new advertisement inventory across all digital end users; use Dialogue-Action as a new universal currency for measurement; empowers users to create dialogue agent apps; create new earning asset for authors; orchestrate sponsorship and advertisements; orchestrate ecommerce; orchestrate media; establish foundation for knowledge assets, and/or the like. [00481] In some embodiments the DCM-Platform may optimises search by creating Dialogue Agents that are driven by human powered artificial intelligence; In some embodiments, the DCM-Platform may provide incentives to maximize the population of a dialogue wiki, dialogue agents, dialogue agent avatars, and dialogue agent applications across clouds, mobile operators, networked marketing, networked marketing and networked marketing, and social networks, in order to maximise highest volume population outcomes. [00482] In some implementations, a percentage of the links generated by the dialogue agents may have referral links that give money or incentive 'value' points and/or prizes. [00483] In some implementations, the dialogue agent may confirm user understanding and compliance via interactive user feedback, reward mechanisms, and/or the like. [00484] In some implementations, the dialogue wiki, dialogue agents, dialogue agent avatars, and dialogue agent applications may be aggregated and analyzed for user data, characteristics, tutorial adoption, user interactive feedback such as asking "how was your purchase," system usage, user behaviour(s) and/or the like, and structure pay- for-performance incentives based on the intelligence for various entities participating in providing products and/or services for system users. DCM-Platform Components
[00485] FIGURE 17 illustrates an implementation of DCM-Platform components in one embodiment of DCM-Platform operation. A DCM-Platform apparatus 1701 may contain a number of processing components and/or data stores. A DCM-Platform controller 1705 may serve a central role in some embodiments of DCM-Platform operation, serving to orchestrate the reception, generation, and distribution of data and/or instructions to, from and between target device(s) and/or client device(s) via DCM-Platform modules and in some instances mediating communications with external entities and systems. [00486] In one embodiment, the DCM-Platform controller 1705 may be housed separately from other modules and/or databases within the DCM-Platform system, while in another embodiment, some or all of the other modules and/or databases may be housed within and/ or configured as part of the DCM-Platform controller. Further detail regarding implementations of DCM-Platform controller operations, modules, and databases is provided below. [00487] In one embodiment, the DCM-Platform Controller 1705 maybe coupled to one or more interface components and/ or modules. In one embodiment, the DCM- Platform Controller may be coupled to a communications module 1730 and communications input/output (I/O) interface 1735. a maintenance interface 212, and a power interface 214. The user interface 1738 may be configured to receive user inputs and display application states and/or other outputs. The UI may, for example, allow a user to adjust DCM-Platform system settings, select communication methods and/or protocols, engage mobile device application features and/or the like. In one implementation, the user interface 1738 may include, but not limited to devices such as, keyboard(s), mouse, stylus(es), touch screen(s), digital display(s), and/or the like. [00488] In one embodiment, the DCM-Platform Controller 205 may further be coupled to a communications module 1730, configured to interface with and/ or process signals from communications I/O components 1735. The communications I/O components 1735 may comprise components facilitating transmission of electronic communications via a variety of different communication protocols and/or formats as coordinated with and/or by the communications module 1730. Communication I/O components 1735 may, for example, contain ports, slots, antennas, amplifiers, and/or the like to facilitate transmission of user interactive dialogue feedbacks, Internet search results, via any of the aforementioned methods. Communication protocols and/or formats for which the communications module 1730 and/or communications 10 components 1735 may be compatible may include, but are not limited to, GSM, GPRS, W-CDMA, CDMA, CDMA2000, HSDPA, Ethernet, WiFi, Bluetooth, USB, and/or the like. In various implementations, the communication I/O 235 may, for example, serve to configure data into application, transport, network, media access control, and/or physical layer formats in accordance with a network transmission protocol, such as, but not limited to FTP, TCP/IP, SMTP, Short Message Peer-to-Peer (SMPP) and/or the like. The communications module 1730 and communications I/O 1735 may further be configurable to implement and/or translate Wireless Application Protocol (WAP), VoIP and/or the like data formats and/or protocols. The communications I/O 1735 may further house one or more ports, jacks, antennas, and/or the like to facilitate wired and/or wireless communications with and/or within the DCM-Platform system. For instance, in the above example, the DCM-Platform controller 1705 may transmit the generated dialogue actions to the communication module 1730, and the dialogue actions may then be transmitted to external entities (e.g., an AI entity, or a consumer, etc.) 1 through the communications I/O 1735.
2 [00489] Numerous data transfer protocols may also be employed as DCM-Platform
3 connections, for example, TCP/IP and/or higher protocols such as HTTP post, FTP put
4 commands, and/ or the like. In one implementation, the communications module 1730
5 may comprise web server software equipped to configure application state data for
6 publication on the World Wide Web. Published application state data may, in one
7 implementation, be represented as an integrated video, animation, rich internet
8 application, and/or the like configured in accordance with a multimedia plug-in such as
9 Adobe Flash. In another implementation, the communications module 1730 may
10 comprise remote access software, such as Citrix, Virtual Network Computing (VNC),
11 and/or the like equipped to configure application state data for viewing on a remote
12 client (e.g., a remote display device).
13 [00490] In one embodiment, the DCM-Platform Controller may further be coupled
14 to a Dialogue Generator 1715, a Social Media Synchronizer 1716, a Knowledge Builder
15 1718, an Asset Generator 1719, a Conversation Monetizer 1720 and/or the like. Within
16 various implementations, the Dialogue Generator 1715 may receive and process
1 consumer dialogue requests, and generate interactive dialogue actions. The generated is dialogues may be populated and implemented via a virtual conversation AI entity on a
19 social media platform by the Social Media Synchronizer 1716. The Knowledge Builder
20 1718 may perform data mining over the stored interactive dialogue scripts, and obtain
21 various information from a client (e.g., brand information, product information , etc.) to
22 synthesize information and store in the Knowledge database 1752. In one
23 implementation, the Asset Generator 1719 may encapsulate the digital conversation and create conversation assets, AI entity assets, portfolio assets, and/or exchange assets for trades, and the Conversation Monetizer 1720 may determine the value of each asset. [ 00491] In one implementation, the DCM-Platform controller 1705 may further be coupled to a plurality of databases configured to store and maintain DCM-Platform data, such as but not limited to a Client database 1740, a Consumer database 1742, an AI Agent database 1744, an Asset database 1746, a Transaction database 1748, a Scripts database 1750, a Knowledge database 1752, and/or the like, as further illustrated in FIGURE 18. DCM-Platform Controller
[00492] FIGURE 18 shows a block diagram illustrating embodiments of a DCM- Platform controller. In this embodiment, the DCM-Platform controller 1801 may serve to aggregate, process, store, search, serve, identify, instruct, generate, match, and/or facilitate interactions with a computer through artificial intelligence technologies, and/or other related data. [ 00493] Typically, users, which may be people and/or other systems, may engage information technology systems (e.g., computers) to facilitate information processing. In turn, computers employ processors to process information; such processors 1803 may be referred to as central processing units (CPU). One form of processor is referred to as a microprocessor. CPUs use communicative circuits to pass binary encoded signals acting as instructions to enable various operations. These instructions may be operational and/or data instructions containing and/or referencing other instructions and data in various processor accessible and operable areas of memory 1829 (e.g., registers, cache memory, random access memory, etc.). Such communicative instructions may be stored and/or transmitted in batches (e.g., batches of instructions) as programs and/or data components to facilitate desired operations. These stored instruction codes, e.g., programs, may engage the CPU circuit components and other motherboard and/or system components to perform desired operations. One type of program is a computer operating system, which, may be executed by CPU on a computer; the operating system enables and facilitates users to access and operate computer information technology and resources. Some resources that may be employed in information technology systems include: input and output mechanisms through which data may pass into and out of a computer; memory storage into which data may be saved; and processors by which information may be processed. These information technology systems may be used to collect data for later retrieval, analysis, and manipulation, which may be facilitated through a database program. These information technology systems provide interfaces that allow users to access and operate various system components. [00494] In one embodiment, the DCM-Platform controller 1801 may be connected to and/or communicate with entities such as, but not limited to: one or more users from user input devices 1811; peripheral devices 1812; an optional cryptographic processor device 1828; and/or a communications network 1813. [00495] Networks are commonly thought to comprise the interconnection and interoperation of clients, servers, and intermediary nodes in a graph topology. It should be noted that the term "server" as used throughout this application refers generally to a computer, other device, program, or combination thereof that processes and responds to the requests of remote users across a communications network. Servers serve their information to requesting "clients." The term "client" as used herein refers generally to a computer, program, other device, user and/or combination thereof that is capable of processing and making requests and obtaining and processing any responses from servers across a communications network. A computer, other device, program, or combination thereof that facilitates, processes information and requests, and/or furthers the passage of information from a source user to a destination user is commonly referred to as a "node." Networks are generally thought to facilitate the transfer of information from source points to destinations. A node specifically tasked with furthering the passage of information from a source to a destination is commonly called a "router." There are many forms of networks such as Local Area Networks (LANs), Pico networks, Wide Area Networks (WANs), Wireless Networks (WLANs), etc. For example, the Internet is generally accepted as being an interconnection of a multitude of networks whereby remote clients and servers may access and interoperate with one another. [00496] The DCM-Platform controller 1801 may be based on computer systems that may comprise, but are not limited to, components such as: a computer systemization 1802 connected to memory 1829. Computer Systemization
[00497] A computer systemization 1802 may comprise a clock 1830, central processing unit ("CPU(s)" and/or "processor(s)" (these terms are used interchangeable throughout the disclosure unless noted to the contrary)) 1803, a memory 1829 (e.g., a read only memory (ROM) 1806, a random access memory (RAM) 1805, etc.), and/or an 1 interface bus 1807, and most frequently, although not necessarily, are all interconnected
2 and/or communicating through a system bus 1804 on one or more (mother)board(s)
3 1802 having conductive and/or otherwise transportive circuit pathways through which
4 instructions (e.g., binary encoded signals) may travel to effectuate communications,
5 operations, storage, etc. The computer systemization may be connected to a power
6 source 1886; e.g., optionally the power source may be internal. Optionally, a
7 cryptographic processor 1826 and/ or transceivers (e.g., ICs) 1874 may be connected to
8 the system bus. In another embodiment, the cryptographic processor and/or
9 transceivers may be connected as either internal and/or external peripheral devices 1812
10 via the interface bus I/O. In turn, the transceivers may be connected to antenna(s) 1875,
11 thereby effectuating wireless transmission and reception of various communication
12 and/or sensor protocols; for example the antenna(s) may connect to: a Texas
13 Instruments WiLink WL1283 transceiver chip (e.g., providing 802.11η, Bluetooth 3.0,
14 FM, global positioning system (GPS) (thereby allowing DCM-Platform controller to
15 determine its location)); Broadcom BCM4329FKUBG transceiver chip (e.g., providmg
16 802.11η, Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR, FM, etc.); a Broadcom BCM4750IUB8 receiver chip (e.g.,
17 GPS); an Infineon Technologies X-Gold 618-PMB9800 (e.g., providing 2G/3G
18 HSDPA/HSUPA communications); and/or the like. The system clock typically has a
19 crystal oscillator and generates a base signal through the computer systemization's
20 circuit pathways. The clock is typically coupled to the system bus and various clock
21 multipliers that will increase or decrease the base operating frequency for other
22 components interconnected in the computer systemization. The clock and various
23 components in a computer systemization drive signals embodying information
24 throughout the system. Such transmission and reception of instructions embodying information throughout a computer systemization may be commonly referred to as communications. These communicative instructions may further be transmitted, received, and the cause of return and/or reply communications beyond the instant computer systemization to: communications networks, input devices, other computer systemizations, peripheral devices, and/ or the like. It should be understood that in alternative embodiments, any of the above components may be connected directly to one another, connected to the CPU, and/or organized in numerous variations employed as exemplified by various computer systems. [00498] The CPU comprises at least one high-speed data processor adequate to execute program components for executing user and/or system-generated requests. Often, the processors themselves will incorporate various specialized processing units, such as, but not limited to: integrated system (bus) controllers, memory management control units, floating point units, and even specialized processing sub-units like graphics processing units, digital signal processing units, and/or the like. Additionally, processors may include internal fast access addressable memory, and be capable of mapping and addressing memory 1829 beyond the processor itself; internal memory may include, but is not limited to: fast registers, various levels of cache memory (e.g., level 1, 2, 3, etc.), RAM, etc. The processor may access this memory through the use of a memory address space that is accessible via instruction address, which the processor can construct and decode allowing it to access a circuit path to a specific memory address space having a memory state. The CPU may be a microprocessor such as: AMD's Athlon, Duron and/or Opteron; ARM's application, embedded and secure processors; IBM and/or Motorola's DragonBall and PowerPC; IBM's and Sony's Cell processor; Intel's Celeron, Core (2) Duo, Itanium, Pentium, Xeon, and/or XScale; and/or the like processor(s). The CPU interacts with memory through instruction passing through conductive and/or transportive conduits (e.g., (printed) electronic and/or optic circuits) to execute stored instructions (i.e., program code) according to conventional data processing techniques. Such instruction passing facilitates communication within the DCM-Platform controller and beyond through various interfaces. Should processing requirements dictate a greater amount speed and/or capacity, distributed processors (e.g., Distributed DCM-Platform), mainframe, multi- core, parallel, and/or super-computer architectures may similarly be employed.Alternatively, should deployment requirements dictate greater portability, smaller Personal Digital Assistants (PDAs) may be employed. [00499] Depending on the particular implementation, features of the DCM- Platform may be achieved by implementing a microcontroller such as CAST'S R8051XC2 microcontroller; Intel's MCS 51 (i.e., 8051 microcontroller); and/or the like. Also, to implement certain features of the DCM-Platform, some feature implementations may rely on embedded components, such as: Application-Specific Integrated Circuit ("ASIC"), Digital Signal Processing ("DSP"), Field Programmable Gate Array ("FPGA"), and/or the like embedded technology. For example, any of the DCM-Platform component collection (distributed or otherwise) and/or features may be implemented via the microprocessor and/or via embedded components; e.g., via ASIC, coprocessor, DSP, FPGA, and/or the like. Alternately, some implementations of the DCM-Platform may be implemented with embedded components that are configured and used to achieve a variety of features or signal processing. [00500] Depending on the particular implementation, the embedded components 1 may include software solutions, hardware solutions, and/or some combination of both
2 hardware/software solutions. For example, DCM-Platform features discussed herein
3 may be achieved through implementing FPGAs, which are a semiconductor devices containing programmable logic components called "logic blocks", and programmable
5 interconnects, such as the high performance FPGA Virtex series and/or the low cost
6 Spartan series manufactured by Xilinx. Logic blocks and interconnects can be
7 programmed by the customer or designer, after the FPGA is manufactured, to s implement any of the DCM-Platform features. A hierarchy of programmable
9 interconnects allow logic blocks to be interconnected as needed by the DCM-Platform0 system designer/ administrator, somewhat like a one-chip programmable breadboard.1 An FPGA's logic blocks can be programmed to perform the operation of basic logic gates2 such as AND, and XOR, or more complex combinational operators such as decoders or3 mathematical operations. In most FPGAs, the logic blocks also include memory elements, which may be circuit flip-flops or more complete blocks of memory. In some5 circumstances, the DCM-Platform may be developed on regular FPGAs and then6 migrated into a fixed version that more resembles ASIC implementations. Alternate or7 coordinating implementations may migrate DCM-Platform controller features to a finals ASIC instead of or in addition to FPGAs. Depending on the implementation all of the9 aforementioned embedded components and microprocessors may be considered the0 "CPU" and/or "processor" for the DCM-Platform.
Power Source
[00501] The power source 1886 may be of any standard form for powering small electronic circuit board devices such as the following power cells: alkaline, lithium 1 hydride, lithium ion, lithium polymer, nickel cadmium, solar cells, and/or the like.
2 Other types of AC or DC power sources may be used as well. In the case of solar cells, in
3 one embodiment, the case provides an aperture through which the solar cell may capture photonic energy. The power cell 1886 is connected to at least one of the
5 interconnected subsequent components of the DCM-Platform thereby providing an
6 electric current to all subsequent components. In one example, the power source 1886 is
7 connected to the system bus component 1804. In an alternative embodiment, an outside a power source 1886 is provided through a connection across the I/O 1808 interface. For
9 example, a USB and/or IEEE 1394 connection carries both data and power across the0 connection and is therefore a suitable source of power. 1 Interface Adapters
2 [00502] Interface bus(ses) 1807 may accept, connect, and/or communicate to a3 number of interface adapters, conventionally although not necessarily in the form of4 adapter cards, such as but not limited to: input output interfaces (I/O) 1808, storage5 interfaces 1809, network interfaces 1810, and/or the like. Optionally, cryptographic6 processor interfaces 1827 similarly may be connected to the interface bus. The interface7 bus provides for the communications of interface adapters with one another as well as8 with other components of the computer systemization. Interface adapters are adapted9 for a compatible interface bus. Interface adapters conventionally connect to the0 interface bus via a slot architecture. Conventional slot architectures may be employed,1 such as, but not limited to: Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP), Card Bus, (Extended)2 Industry Standard Architecture ((E)ISA), Micro Channel Architecture (MCA), NuBus,3 Peripheral Component Interconnect (Extended) (PCI(X)), PCI Express, Personal Computer Memory Card International Association (PCMCIA), and/or the like. [ 00503] Storage interfaces 1809 may accept, communicate, and/or connect to a number of storage devices such as, but not limited to: storage devices 1814, removable disc devices, and/or the like. Storage interfaces may employ connection protocols such as, but not limited to: (Ultra) (Serial) Advanced Technology Attachment (Packet Interface) ((Ultra) (Serial) ATA(PI)), (Enhanced) Integrated Drive Electronics ((E)IDE), Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 1394, fiber channel, Small Computer Systems Interface (SCSI), Universal Serial Bus (USB), and/or the like. [00504] Network interfaces 1810 may accept, communicate, and/or connect to a communications network 1813. Through a communications network 1813, the DCM- Platform controller is accessible through remote clients 1833b (e.g., computers with web browsers) by users 1833a. Network interfaces may employ connection protocols such as, but not limited to: direct connect, Ethernet (thick, thin, twisted pair 10/100/1000 Base T, and/or the like), Token Ring, wireless connection such as IEEE 802.iia-x, and/or the like. Should processing requirements dictate a greater amount speed and/or capacity, distributed network controllers (e.g., Distributed DCM- Platform), architectures may similarly be employed to pool, load balance, and/or otherwise increase the communicative bandwidth required by the DCM-Platform controller. A communications network may be any one and/or the combination of the following: a direct interconnection; the Internet; a Local Area Network (LAN); a Metropolitan Area Network (MAN); an Operating Missions as Nodes on the Internet (OMNI); a secured custom connection; a Wide Area Network (WAN); a wireless network (e.g., employing protocols such as, but not limited to a Wireless Application Protocol (WAP), I-mode, and/or the like); and/or the like. A network interface may be regarded as a specialized form of an input output interface. Further, multiple network interfaces 1810 may be used to engage with various communications network types 1813. For example, multiple network interfaces may be employed to allow for the communication over broadcast, multicast, and/or unicast networks. [00505] Input Output interfaces (I/O) 1808 may accept, communicate, and/or connect to user input devices 1811, peripheral devices 1812, cryptographic processor devices 1828, and/or the like. I/O may employ connection protocols such as, but not limited to: audio: analog, digital, monaural, RCA, stereo, and/or the like; data: Apple Desktop Bus (ADB), IEEE I394a-b, serial, universal serial bus CUSB); infrared; joystick; keyboard; midi; optical; PC AT; PS/2; parallel; radio; video interface: Apple Desktop Connector (ADC), BNC, coaxial, component, composite, digital, Digital Visual Interface (DVI), high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI), RCA, RF antennae, S-Video, VGA, and/or the like; wireless transceivers: 802.na/b/g/n/x; Bluetooth; cellular (e.g., code division multiple access (CDMA), high speed packet access (HSPA(+)), high-speed downlink packet access (HSDPA), global system for mobile communications (GSM), long term evolution (LTE), WiMax, etc.); and/or the like. One typical output device may include a video display, which typically comprises a Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) or Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) based monitor with an interface (e.g., DVI circuitry and cable) that accepts signals from a video interface, may be used. The video interface composites information generated by a computer systemization and generates video signals based on the composited information in a video memory frame. Another output device is a television set, which accepts signals from a video interface. Typically, the video interface provides the composited video information through a video connection interface that t accepts a video display interface (e.g., an RCA composite video connector accepting an
2 RCA composite video cable; a DVT connector accepting a DVI display cable, etc.).
3 [00506] User input devices 1811 often are a type of peripheral device 512 (see below)
4 and may include: card readers, dongles, finger print readers, gloves, graphics tablets,
5 joysticks, keyboards, microphones, mouse (mice), remote controls, retina readers, touch
6 screens (e.g., capacitive, resistive, etc.), trackballs, trackpads, sensors (e.g.,
7 accelerometers, ambient light, GPS, gyroscopes, proximity, etc.), styluses, and/or the
8 like.
9 [00507] Peripheral devices 1812 may be connected and/or communicate to I/O0 and/or other facilities of the like such as network interfaces, storage interfaces, directly1 to the interface bus, system bus, the CPU, and/or the like. Peripheral devices may be2 external, internal and/or part of the DCM-Platform controller. Peripheral devices may3 include: antenna, audio devices (e.g., line-in, line-out, microphone input, speakers, etc.), cameras (e.g., still, video, webcam, etc.), dongles (e.g., for copy protection, ensuring5 secure transactions with a digital signature, and/or the like), external processors (for6 added capabilities; e.g., crypto devices 528), force-feedback devices (e.g., vibrating7 motors), network interfaces, printers, scanners, storage devices, transceivers (e.g.,8 cellular, GPS, etc.), video devices (e.g., goggles, monitors, etc.), video sources, visors,9 and/or the like. Peripheral devices often include types of input devices (e.g., cameras). 0 [00508] It should be noted that although user input devices and peripheral devices1 may be employed, the DCM-Platform controller may be embodied as an embedded,2 dedicated, and/ or monitor-less (i.e., headless) device, wherein access would be provided3 over a network interface connection. 1 [00509] Cryptographic units such as, but not limited to, microcontrollers,
2 processors 1826, interfaces 1827, and/or devices 1828 may be attached, and/or
3 communicate with the DCM-Platform controller. A MC68HC16 microcontroller,
4 manufactured by Motorola Inc., may be used for and/or within cryptographic units. The
5 MC68HC16 microcontroller utilizes a 16-bit multiply-and-accumulate instruction in the
6 16 MHz configuration and requires less than one second to perform a 512-bit RSA
7 private key operation. Cryptographic units support the authentication of
8 communications from interacting agents, as well as allowing for anonymous
9 transactions. Cryptographic units may also be configured as part of the CPU. Equivalent
10 microcontrollers and/or processors may also be used. Other commercially available
1 1 specialized cryptographic processors include: Broadcom's CryptoNetX and other
12 Security Processors; nCipher's nShield; SafeNet's Luna PCI (e.g., 7100) series;
13 Semaphore Communications' 40 MHz Roadrunner 184; Sun's Cryptographic
14 Accelerators (e.g., Accelerator 6000 PCIe Board, Accelerator 500 Daughtercard); Via
15 Nano Processor (e.g., L2100, L2200, U2400) line, which is capable of performing 500+
16 MB/s of cryptographic instructions; VLSI Technology's 33 MHz 6868; and/or the like.
17 Memory
ie [00510] Generally, any mechanization and/ or embodiment allowing a processor to J9 affect the storage and/or retrieval of information is regarded as memory 1829. However,
20 memory is a fungible technology and resource, thus, any number of memory
21 embodiments may be employed in lieu of or in concert with one another. It is to be
22 understood that the DCM-Platform controller and/or a computer systemization may
23 employ various forms of memory 1829. For example, a computer systemization may be configured wherein the operation of on-chip CPU memory (e.g., registers), RAM, ROM, and any other storage devices are provided by a paper punch tape or paper punch card mechanism; however, such an embodiment would result in an extremely slow rate of operation. In a typical configuration, memory 1829 will include ROM 1806, RAM 1805, and a storage device 1814. A storage device 1814 may be any conventional computer system storage. Storage devices may include a drum; a (fixed and/or removable) magnetic disk drive; a magneto-optical drive; an optical drive (i.e., Blueray, CD ROM/RAM/Recordable (R)/ Rewritable (RW), DVD R/RW, HD DVD R/RW etc.); an array of devices (e.g., Redundant Array of Independent Disks (RAID)); solid state memory devices (USB memory, solid state drives (SSD), etc.); other processor-readable storage mediums; and/or other devices of the like. Thus, a computer systemization generally requires and makes use of memory. Component Collection
[00511] The memory 1829 may contain a collection of program and/or database components and/or data such as, but not limited to: operating system component(s) 1815 (operating system); information server component(s) 1816 (information server); user interface component(s) 1817 (user interface); Web browser component(s) 1818 (Web browser); database(s) 1819; mail server component(s) 1821; mail client component(s) 1822; cryptographic server component(s) 1820 (cryptographic server); the DCM-Platform component(s) 1835; and/or the like (i.e., collectively a component collection). These components may be stored and accessed from the storage devices and/or from storage devices accessible through an interface bus. Although non- conventional program components such as those in the component collection, typically, 1 are stored in a local storage device 1814, they may also be loaded and/or stored in
2 memory such as: peripheral devices, RAM, remote storage facilities through a
3 communications network, ROM, various forms of memory, and/or the like.
4 Operating System
5 [ 00512] The operating system component 1815 is an executable program
6 component facilitating the operation of the DCM-Platform controller. Typically, the
7 operating system facilitates access of I/O, network interfaces, peripheral devices, s storage devices, and/ or the like. The operating system may be a highly fault tolerant,
9 scalable, and secure system such as: Apple Macintosh OS X (Server); AT&T Plan 9; Be
10 OS; Unix and Unix-like system distributions (such as AT&T's UNIX; Berkley Software
11 Distribution (BSD) variations such as FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, and/or the like;
12 Linux distributions such as Red Hat, Ubuntu, and/or the like); and/or the like operating
13 systems. However, more limited and/or less secure operating systems also may be
14 employed such as Apple Macintosh OS, IBM OS/2, Microsoft DOS, Microsoft Windows
15 2000/2003/3.1/95/98/CE/Millenium/NT/Vista/XP (Server), Palm OS, and/or the like.
16 An operating system may communicate to and/or with other components in a
17 component collection, including itself, and/or the like. Most frequently, the operating
18 system communicates with other program components, user interfaces, and /or the like.
19 For example, the operating system may contain, communicate, generate, obtain, and/or
20 provide program component, system, user, and/or data communications, requests,
21 and/or responses. The operating system, once executed by the CPU, may enable the
22 interaction with communications networks, data, I/O, peripheral devices, program
23 components, memory, user input devices, and/or the like. The operating system may 1 provide communications protocols that allow the DCM-Platform controller to
2 communicate with other entities through a communications network 1813. Various
3 communication protocols may be used by the DCM-Platform controller as a subcarrier
4 transport mechanism for interaction, such as, but not limited to: multicast, TCP/IP,
5 UDP, unicast, and/or the like.
6 information Server
? [ 00513] An information server component 1816 is a stored program component
8 that is executed by a CPU. The information server may be a conventional Internet
9 information server such as, but not limited to Apache Software Foundation's Apache,0 Microsoft's Internet Information Server, and/or the like. The information server may1 allow for the execution of program components through facilities such as Active Server2 Page (ASP), ActiveX, (ANSI) (Objective-) C (++), C# and/or .NET, Common Gateway3 Interface (CGI) scripts, dynamic (D) hypertext markup language (HTML), FLASH, Java,4 JavaScript, Practical Extraction Report Language (PERL), Hypertext Pre-Processor5 (PHP), pipes, Python, wireless application protocol (WAP), WebObjects, and/or the like.6 The information server may support secure communications protocols such as, but not7 limited to, File Transfer Protocol (FTP); HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP); Secure8 Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTPS), Secure Socket Layer (SSL), messaging protocols9 (e.g., America Online (AOL) Instant Messenger (AIM), Application Exchange (APEX),0 ICQ, Internet Relay Chat (IRC), Microsoft Network (MSN) Messenger Service, Presence1 and Instant Messaging Protocol (PRIM), Internet Engineering Task Force's (IETF's)2 Session Initiation Protocol (SIP), SIP for Instant Messaging and Presence Leveraging3 Extensions (SIMPLE), open XML-based Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol 1 (XMPP) (i.e., Jabber or Open Mobile Alliance's (OMA's) Instant Messaging and
2 Presence Service (IMPS)), Yahoo! Instant Messenger Service, and/or the like. The
3 information server provides results in the form of Web pages to Web browsers, and allows for the manipulated generation of the Web pages through interaction with other s program components. After a Domain Name System (DNS) resolution portion of an
6 HTTP request is resolved to a particular information server, the information server
7 resolves requests for information at specified locations on the DCM-Platform controller
8 based on the remainder of the HTTP request. For example, a request such as
9 http://123.124.125.126/myInformation.html might have the IP portion of the request0 "123.124.125.126" resolved by a DNS server to an information server at that IP address;1 that information server might in turn further parse the http request for the2 '7myInformation.html" portion of the request and resolve it to a location in memory3 containing the information "myInformation.html." Additionally, other information4 serving protocols may be employed across various ports, e.g., FTP communications5 across port 21, and/or the like. An information server may communicate to and/or with6 other components in a component collection, including itself, and/or facilities of the like.7 Most frequently, the information server communicates with the DCM-Platform databases 1819, operating systems, other program components, user interfaces, Web browsers,9 and/or the like. 0 [00514] Access to the DCM-Platform database may be achieved through a number1 of database bridge mechanisms such as through scripting languages as enumerated2 below (e.g., CGI) and through inter-application communication channels as enumerated3 below (e.g., CORBA, WebObjects, etc.). Any data requests through a Web browser are4 parsed through the bridge mechanism into appropriate grammars as required by the 1 DCM-Platform. In one embodiment, the information server would provide a Web form
2 accessible by a Web browser. Entries made into supplied fields in the Web form are
3 tagged as having been entered into the particular fields, and parsed as such. The entered
4 terms are then passed along with the field tags, which act to instruct the parser to a generate queries directed to appropriate tables and/or fields. In one embodiment, the
6 parser may generate queries in standard SQL by instantiating a search string with the
7 proper join/select commands based on the tagged text entries, wherein the resulting
8 command is provided over the bridge mechanism to the DCM-Platform as a query.
9 Upon generating query results from the query, the results are passed over the bridge0 mechanism, and may be parsed for formatting and generation of a new results Web page1 by the bridge mechanism. Such a new results Web page is then provided to the2 information server, which may supply it to the requesting Web browser. 3 [00515] Also, an information server may contain, communicate, generate, obtain,4 and/or provide program component, system, user, and/or data communications,5 requests, and/or responses. 6 User Interface
7 [00516] Computer interfaces in some respects are similar to automobile operation8 interfaces. Automobile operation interface elements such as steering wheels, gearshifts,9 and speedometers facilitate the access, operation, and display of automobile resources,0 and status. Computer interaction interface elements such as check boxes, cursors,1 menus, scrollers, and windows (collectively and commonly referred to as widgets)2 similarly facilitate the access, capabilities, operation, and display of data and computer3 hardware and operating system resources, and status. Operation interfaces are 1 commonly called user interfaces. Graphical user interfaces (GUIs) such as the Apple
2 Macintosh Operating System's Aqua, IBM's OS/2, Microsoft's Windows
3 2000/2003/3.i/95/98/CE/Milleniuni/NT/XP/Vista/7 (i.e., Aero), Unix's X-Windows (e.g., which may include additional Unix graphic interface libraries and layers such as K
5 Desktop Environment (KDE), mythTV and GNU Network Object Model Environment
6 (GNOME)), web interface libraries (e.g., ActiveX, AJAX, (D)HTML, FLASH, Java,
7 JavaScript, etc. interface libraries such as, but not limited to, Dojo, jQuery(UI),
8 MooTools, Prototype, script.aculo.us, SWFObject, Yahoo! User Interface, any of which
9 may be used and) provide a baseline and means of accessing and displaying information0 graphically to users. 1 [00517] A user interface component 1817 is a stored program component that is2 executed by a CPU. The user interface may be a conventional graphic user interface as3 provided by, with, and/or atop operating systems and/or operating environments such4 as already discussed. The user interface may allow for the display, execution, interaction,5 manipulation, and/or operation of program components and/or system facilities6 through textual and/or graphical facilities. The user interface provides a facility through7 which users may affect, interact, and/or operate a computer system. A user interface8 may communicate to and/or with other components in a component collection,9 including itself, and/or facilities of the like. Most frequently, the user interface0 communicates with operating systems, other program components, and/or the like. The1 user interface may contain, communicate, generate, obtain, and/or provide program2 component, system, user, and/or data communications, requests, and/or responses. 3 Web Browser [00518] A Web browser component 1818 is a stored program component that is executed by a CPU. The Web browser may be a conventional hypertext viewing application such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator. Secure Web browsing may be supplied with I28bit (or greater) encryption by way of HTTPS, SSL, and/or the like. Web browsers allowing for the execution of program components through facilities such as ActiveX, AJAX, (D)HTML, FLASH, Java, JavaScript, web browser plug-in APIs (e.g., FireFox, Safari Plug-in, and/or the like APIs), and/or the like. Web browsers and like information access tools may be integrated into PDAs, cellular telephones, and/or other mobile devices. A Web browser may communicate to and/ or with other components in a component collection, including itself, and/or facilities of the like. Most frequently, the Web browser communicates with information servers, operating systems, integrated program components (e.g., plug-ins), and/or the like; e.g., it may contain, communicate, generate, obtain, and/or provide program component, system, user, and/or data communications, requests, and/or responses. Also, in place of a Web browser and information server, a combined application may be developed to perform similar operations of both. The combined application would similarly affect the obtaining and the provision of information to users, user agents, and/or the like from the DCM- Platform enabled nodes. The combined application may be nugatory on systems employing standard Web browsers. Mail Server
[00519] A mail server component 1821 is a stored program component that is executed by a CPU 1803. The mail server may be a conventional Internet mail server such as, but not limited to sendmaii, Microsoft Exchange, and/or the like. The mail server may allow for the execution of program components through facilities such as ASP, ActiveX, (ANSI) (Objective-) C (++), C# and/or .NET, CGI scripts, Java, JavaScript, PERL, PHP, pipes, Python, WebObjects, and/or the like. The mail server may support communications protocols such as, but not limited to: Internet message access protocol (IMAP), Messaging Application Programming Interface (MAPI)/Microsoft Exchange, post office protocol (POP3), simple mail transfer protocol (SMTP), and/or the like. The mail server can route, forward, and process incoming and outgoing mail messages that have been sent, relayed and/or otherwise traversing through and/or to the DCM- Platform. [00520] Access to the DCM-Platform mail may be achieved through a number of APIs offered by the individual Web server components and/or the operating system. [ 00521] Also, a mail server may contain, communicate, generate, obtain, and/or provide program component, system, user, and/or data communications, requests, information, and/or responses. Mail Client
[00522] A mail client component 1822 is a stored program component that is executed by a CPU 1803. The mail client may be a conventional mail viewing application such as Apple Mail, Microsoft Entourage, Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Outlook Express, Mozilla, Thunderbird, and/or the like. Mail clients may support a number of transfer protocols, such as: IMAP, Microsoft Exchange, POP3, SMTP, and/or the like. A mail client may communicate to and/or with other components in a component collection, including itself, and/or facilities of the like. Most frequently, the mail client communicates with mail servers, operating systems, other mail clients, and/or the like; 1 e.g., it may contain, communicate, generate, obtain, and/or provide program
2 component, system, user, and/or data communications, requests, information, and/or
3 responses. Generally, the mail client provides a facility to compose and transmit electronic mail messages.
5 Cryptographic Server
6 [00523] A cryptographic server component 1820 is a stored program component
I that is executed by a CPU 1803, cryptographic processor 1826, cryptographic processor
8 interface 1827, cryptographic processor device 1828, and/or the like. Cryptographic
9 processor interfaces will allow for expedition of encryption and/or decryption requests
10 by the cryptographic component; however, the cryptographic component, alternatively,
II may run on a conventional CPU. The cryptographic component allows for the
12 encryption and/or decryption of provided data. The cryptographic component allows for
13 both symmetric and asymmetric (e.g., Pretty Good Protection (PGP)) encryption and/or
14 decryption. The cryptographic component may employ cryptographic techniques such
15 as, but not limited to: digital certificates (e.g., X.509 authentication framework), digital
16 signatures, dual signatures, enveloping, password access protection, public key
17 management, and/or the like. The cryptographic component will facilitate numerous
18 (encryption and/or decryption) security protocols such as, but not limited to: checksum, !9 Data Encryption Standard (DES), Elliptical Curve Encryption (ECC), International Data
20 Encryption Algorithm (IDEA), Message Digest 5 (MD5, which is a one way hash
21 operation), passwords, Rivest Cipher (RC5), Rijndael, RSA (which is an Internet
22 encryption and authentication system that uses an algorithm developed in 1977 by Ron
23 Rivest, Adi Shamir, and Leonard Adleman), Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA), Secure 1 Socket Layer (SSL), Secure Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTPS), and/ or the like.
2 Employing such encryption security protocols, the DCM-Platform may encrypt all
3 incoming and/or outgoing communications and may serve as node within a virtual
4 private network (VPN) with a wider communications network. The cryptographic
5 component facilitates the process of "security authorization" whereby access to a
6 resource is inhibited by a security protocol wherein the cryptographic component effects
7 authorized access to the secured resource. In addition, the cryptographic component s may provide unique identifiers of content, e.g., employing and MD5 hash to obtain a
9 unique signature for an digital audio file. A cryptographic component may communicate0 to and/or with other components in a component collection, including itself, and/or1 facilities of the like. The cryptographic component supports encryption schemes2 allowing for the secure transmission of information across a communications network3 to enable the DCM-Platform component to engage in secure transactions if so desired.4 The cryptographic component facilitates the secure accessing of resources on the DCM-5 Platform and facilitates the access of secured resources on remote systems; i.e., it may6 act as a client and/or server of secured resources. Most frequently, the cryptographic7 component communicates with information servers, operating systems, other program8 components, and/or the like. The cryptographic component may contain, communicate,9 generate, obtain, and/or provide program component, system, user, and/ or data0 communications, requests, and/or responses. 1 The DCM-Platform Database
2 [00524] The DCM-Platform database component 1819 may be embodied in3 database and its stored data. The database is a stored program component, which executed by the CPU; the stored program component portion configuring the CPU to process the stored data. The database may be a conventional, fault tolerant, relational, scalable, secure database such as Oracle or Sybase. Relational databases are an extension of a flat file. Relational databases consist of a series of related tables. The tables are interconnected via a key field. Use of the key field allows the combination of the tables by indexing against the key field; i.e., the key fields act as dimensional pivot points for combining information from various tables. Relationships generally identify links maintained between tables by matching primary keys. Primary keys represent fields that uniquely identify the rows of a table in a relational database. More precisely, they uniquely identify rows of a table on the "one" side of a one-to-many relationship. [00525] Alternatively, the DCM- Platform database may be implemented using various standard data-structures, such as an array, hash, (linked) list, struct, structured text file (e.g., XML), table, and/or the like. Such data-structures may be stored in memory and/or in (structured) files. In another alternative, an object-oriented database may be used, such as Frontier, ObjectStore, Poet, Zope, and/ or the like. Object databases can include a number of object collections that are grouped and/or linked together by common attributes; they may be related to other object collections by some common attributes. Object-oriented databases perform similarly to relational databases with the exception that objects are not just pieces of data but may have other types of capabilities encapsulated within a given object. If the DCM-Platform database is implemented as a data-structure, the use of the DCM-Platform database 1819 may be integrated into another component such as the DCM-Platform component 1835. Also, the database may be implemented as a mix of data structures, objects, and relational structures. Databases may be consolidated and/or distributed in countless variations 1 through standard data processing techniques. Portions of databases, e.g., tables, may be
2 exported and/or imported and thus decentralized and/or integrated.
3 [00526] In one embodiment, the database component 519 includes several tables
4 5iga-e. A User table 1819a includes fields such as, but not limited to: UserlD,
5 UserAddress, UserPhoneNumer, UserName, UserAddress, UserPassword, UserType,
6 UserPreference, UserAccount, and/or the like. The User table may support and/or track
7 multiple entity accounts on a DCM-Platform. A Hardware table 1819b includes fields
8 such as, but not limited to: HardwarelD, UserlD, ScriptID, ConvAssetID, HardwareType,
9 HardwareName, DataFormattingRequirements, HardwareProtocols, Addresslnfo,
10 UsageHistory, HardwareRequirements and/or the like. A Conversation Asset table
11 1819c includes fields such as, but not limited to: AssetID, AssetSymbol, AssetName,
12 AssetType, AIAgentlD, AIAgentName, ExchangelD, PortfolioID, Assetlndex,
13 AssetOwnership, AssetNegotiator, AssetWrapperTag, AssetSize, ScriptID and/or the
14 like. An AI Agent table H9d includes fields such as, but not limited to: AgentID,
15 AgentName, AssetID, AssetName, AssetOwnership, PortfolioID, AgentHistory,6 AgentCredit, and/or the like. A Portfolio table i8i9e includes fields such as, but not
17 limited to: PortfolioID, PortfolioName, AssetID, AssetName, PortfoioOwnership,
18 PortfolioWrapperTag, Portfoliolndex, PortfolioNegatiator, AgentID, and/or the like. An
19 Exchange table i8i9f includes fields such as, but not limited to: ExchangelD,
20 ExchangeParty, Exchangelndex, ExchangeTime, AssetID, PortfolioID, AgentID, and/or
21 the like. A Scripts table i8i9g includes fields such as, but not limited to: ScriptID,
22 ScriptName, ScriptTime, ScriptFile, AssetID, AgentID, HardwarelD, ScriptFormat,
23 ScriptType, ScriptProgram, ScriptAuthor, and/or the like. An author table i8igh
24 includes fields such as, but not limited to: AuthorName, AuthorlD, AuthorScript, AuthorAI, AuthorType, AuthorConversationID, and/or the like. An owner table 18191 includes fields such as, but not limited to: OwnerName, OwnerType, OwnerlD, OwnerAssetID, OwnerAI, OwnerLegallnfo, and/or the like. A transaction table 1819J includes fields such as, but not limited to: TransactionID, TransactionParty, TransactionOwner, TransactionAI, TransactionAsset, TranctionTime, TransactionPrice, Transaction Volume, and/or the like. A knowledge table 1819k includes fields such as, but not limited to: KnowledgelD, KnowledgeSource, KnowledgeScriptID, KnowledgeSearchID, KnowledgeDistributorlD, and/or the like. A client table 1819I includes fields such as, but not limited to: ClientID, ClientName, ClientAd, ClientAI, ClientProject, and/or the like. [00527] In one embodiment, the DCM- Platform database may interact with other database systems. For example, employing a distributed database system, queries and data access by search DCM-Platform component may treat the combination of the DCM-Platform database, an integrated data security layer database as a single database entity. [00528] In one embodiment, user programs may contain various user interface primitives, which may serve to update the DCM-Platform. Also, various accounts may require custom database tables depending upon the environments and the types of clients the DCM-Platform may need to serve. It should be noted that any unique fields may be designated as a key field throughout. In an alternative embodiment, these tables have been decentralized into their own databases and their respective database controllers (i.e., individual database controllers for each of the above tables). Employing standard data processing techniques, one may further distribute the databases over 1 several computer systemizations and/or storage devices. Similarly, configurations of the
2 decentralized database controllers may be varied by consolidating and/ or distributing
3 the various database components i8i9a-l. The DCM-Platform may be configured to
4 keep track of various settings, inputs, and parameters via database controllers.
5 [00529 ] The DCM-Platform database may communicate to and/or with other
6 components in a component collection, including itself, and/or facilities of the like.
7 Most frequently, the DCM-Platform database communicates with the DCM-Platform s component, other program components, and/or the like. The database may contain,
9 retain, and provide information regarding other nodes and data.
10 The DCM-PIatforms
1 1 [00530] The DCM-Platform component 1835 is a stored program component that
12 is executed by a CPU. In one embodiment, the DCM-Platform component incorporates
13 any and/or all combinations of the aspects of the DCM-Platform that was discussed in J4 the previous figures. As such, the DCM-Platform affects accessing, obtaining and the
15 provision of information, services, transactions, and/or the like across various
16 communications networks.
17 [00531] The DCM-Platform transforms digital dialogue from consumers, client
18 demands and, Internet search inputs via DCM-Platform components Conversation
19 Monetizer 1845, Asset Generator 1844, Knowledge Builder 1843, Social Media
20 Synchronizer 1842 and Dialogue Generator 1841 into tradable digital assets, and client
21 needs based artificial intelligence campaign plan outputs.
22 [00532] The DCM-Platform component enabling access of information between nodes may be developed by employing standard development tools and languages such as, but not limited to: Apache components, Assembly, ActiveX, binary executables, (ANSI) (Objective-) C (++), C# and/or .NET, database adapters, CGI scripts, Java, JavaScript, mapping tools, procedural and object oriented development tools, PERL, PHP, Python, shell scripts, SQL commands, web application server extensions, web development environments and libraries (e.g., Microsoft's ActiveX; Adobe AIR, FLEX & FLASH; AJAX; (D)HTML; Dojo, Java; JavaScript; jQuery(UI); MooTools; Prototype; script.aculo.us; Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP); SWFObject; Yahoo! User Interface; and/or the like), WebObjects, and/or the like. In one embodiment, the DCM- Platform server employs a cryptographic server to encrypt and decrypt communications. The DCM-Platform component may communicate to and/or with other components in a component collection, including itself, and/or facilities of the like. Most frequently, the DCM-Platform component communicates with the DCM-Platform database, operating systems, other program components, and/or the like. The DCM-Platform may contain, communicate, generate, obtain, and/or provide program component, system, user, and/or data communications, requests, and/or responses. Distributed DC M- Platforms
[00533] The structure and/or operation of any of the DCM-Platform node controller components may be combined, consolidated, and/or distributed in any number of ways to facilitate development and/or deployment. Similarly, the component collection may be combined in any number of ways to facilitate deployment and/or development. To accomplish this, one may integrate the components into a common code base or in a facility that can dynamically load the components on demand in an integrated fashion. [00534] The component collection may be consolidated and/ or distributed in countless variations through standard data processing and/or development techniques. Multiple instances of any one of the program components in the program component collection may be instantiated on a single node, and/or across numerous nodes to improve performance through load-balancing and/or data -processing techniques. Furthermore, single instances may also be distributed across multiple controllers and/or storage devices; e.g., databases. All program component instances and controllers working in concert may do so through standard data processing communication techniques. [00535] The configuration of the DCM-Platform controller will depend on the context of system deployment. Factors such as, but not limited to, the budget, capacity, location, and/or use of the underlying hardware resources may affect deployment requirements and configuration. Regardless of if the configuration results in more consolidated and/ or integrated program components, results in a more distributed series of program components, and/or results in some combination between a consolidated and distributed configuration, data may be communicated, obtained, and/or provided. Instances of components consolidated into a common code base from the program component collection may communicate, obtain, and/or provide data. This may be accomplished through intra-application data processing communication techniques such as, but not limited to: data referencing (e.g., pointers), internal messaging, object instance variable communication, shared memory space, variable passing, and/or the like. [00536] If component collection components are discrete, separate, and/or external to one another, then communicating, obtaining, and/or providing data with and/or to other component components may be accomplished through inter-application data processing communication techniques such as, but not limited to: Application Program Interfaces (API) information passage; (distributed) Component Object Model ((D)COM), (Distributed) Object Linking and Embedding ((D)OLE), and/or the like), Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA), Jini local and remote application program interfaces, JavaScript Object Notation (JSON), Remote Method Invocation (RMI), SOAP, process pipes, shared files, and/or the like. Messages sent between discrete component components for inter-application communication or within memory spaces of a singular component for intra-application communication may be facilitated through the creation and parsing of a grammar. A grammar may be developed by using development tools such as lex, yacc, XML, and/or the like, which allow for grammar generation and parsing capabilities, which in turn may form the basis of communication messages within and between components. [00537] For example, a grammar may be arranged to recognize the tokens of an HTTP post command, e.g.:
w3 c -post http : / / . . . Valuel
[00538] where Valuel is discerned as being a parameter because "http://" is part of the grammar syntax, and what follows is considered part of the post value. Similarly, with such a grammar, a variable "Valuel" may be inserted into an "http://" post command and then sent. The grammar syntax itself may be presented as structured data that is interpreted and/or otherwise used to generate the parsing mechanism (e.g., a syntax description text file as processed by lex, yacc, etc.). Also, once the parsing mechanism is generated and/or instantiated, it itself may process and/or parse structured data such as, but not limited to: character (e.g., tab) delineated text, HTML, structured text streams, XML, and/or the like structured data. In another embodiment, inter-application data processing protocols themselves may have integrated and/or readily available parsers (e.g., JSON, SOAP, and/or like parsers) that may be employed to parse (e.g., communications) data. Further, the parsing grammar may be used beyond message parsing, but may also be used to parse: databases, data collections, data stores, structured data, and/or the like. Again, the desired configuration will depend upon the context, environment, and requirements of system deployment. [0053 ] For example, in some implementations, the DCM-Platform controller may be executing a PHP script implementing a Secure Sockets Layer ("SSL") socket server via the information sherver, which listens to incoming communications on a server port to which a client may send data, e.g., data encoded in JSON format. Upon identifying an incoming communication, the PHP script may read the incoming message from the client device, parse the received JSON-encoded text data to extract information from the JSON-encoded text data into PHP script variables, and store the data (e.g., client identifying information, etc.) and/or extracted information in a relational database accessible using the Structured Query Language ("SQL"). An exemplary listing, written substantially in the form of PHP/SQL commands, to accept JSON-encoded input data from a client device via a SSL connection, parse the data to extract variables, and store the data to a database, is provided below: <?PHP
header (' Content-Type: text/plain'); // set ip address and port to listen to for incoming data $address - 1192.168.0.100 ' ;
Sport = 255;
// create a server-side SSL socket, listen for/accept incoming communication
$sock = socket_create (AF^INET, SOCK_STREAM, 0) ;
socket_bind ( $sock, $address, $port) or diei'Could not bind to address' ) ;
socket_liste ($sock) ;
$client = socket_accept ( $sock) ;
// read input data from client device in 1024 byte blocks until end of message
do {
$input = "";
$input = socket_read($client, 1024);
$data .= $input;
} while($input != ;
// parse data to extract variables
$obj = j≤on_decode ( $data, true);
// store input data in a database
mysql_connect{"201.408.185.132",$DBserver,$pass ord) ; // access database server
mysql_select ( "CLIENT_DB . SQL" ) ; // select database to append
mysql_query ("INSERT INTO UserTable (transmission)
VALUES ($data)"); // add data to UserTable table in a CLIENT database
mysql_close ( "CLIENT_DB . SQL" ) ; // close connection to database
