A remote personal assistant server/service is configured with a plurality of different state machines for supporting asynchronous communications with the front-end interfaces of personal assistants and for supporting the interfacing with a plurality of proprietary back-end intelligence bots, which are independently controlled and separate from the remote personal assistant service/server.

Asynchronous context communication for speech services

An application that generates a user interface includes multiple assets, such as icons, that are overlaid onto other user interface elements, such as tool bars, menus, windows, etc. The assets may be configured at runtime to match a user interface theme that utilizes specific colors, fonts, and styles. The application, at runtime, configures an asset to match the user interface theme by adjusting the luminosity of the pixels in the asset. A subset of pixels in the asset is matched to the color of a target background color by altering the luminosity of the subset of pixels in the asset to match the luminosity of the target background color. The luminosity of the remaining pixels is adjusted to match the theme.
