Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer program products are provided for enhancing and synchronizing tone generation. A tone generation element includes an ID attribute, an iterate attribute, a barge attribute, a cleardb attribute, and an override attribute to enhance tone generation. A tone child element of the tone generation element specifies a tone, and a silence child element of the tone generation element specifies a silence interval. The silence child element includes a periods per minute attribute for synchronizing tones. Invoking the tone generation element enables tone generation.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- setting a periods per minute attribute of a silence element to set one or more silence durations per minute;
- invoking a tone generation element, wherein the tone generation element comprises the silence element;
- and
- executing the tone generation element to cause a plurality of client devices to generate one or more synchronized tones according to the periods per minute attribute.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon one or more sequences of instructions, which when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform:
- setting a periods per minute attribute of a silence element to set one or more silence durations per minute;
- invoking a tone generation element, wherein the tone generation element comprises the silence element;
- and
- executing the tone generation element to cause a plurality of client devices to generate one or more synchronized tones according to the periods per minute attribute.
A system, comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- a computer-readable storage medium coupled to the one or more processors and comprising instructions thereon that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
- set a periods per minute attribute of a silence element to set one or more silence durations per minute;
- invoke a tone generation element, wherein the tone generation element comprises the silence element;
- and
- execute the tone generation element to cause a plurality of client devices to generate one or more synchronized tones according to the periods per minute attribute.
