A computer-implemented method for monitoring a condition of a location is disclosed. This method includes storing monitoring records relating to segments of the location comprising one or more monitoring records being collected by the mobile computing device passing through the segment and monitoring records being received from a source mobile computing device of the mobile computing devices, each of the monitoring records comprising monitoring values indicative of a condition of corresponding positions of the corresponding segment, transmitting the monitoring records of each segment being stored to a target mobile computing devices, filtering the monitoring records of each segment being stored according to a homogeneity thereof, and uploading the monitoring records of each segment being filtered to validate the monitoring records of each segment according to a matching thereof and to determine at least one condition indicator of each segment according to the corresponding monitoring records being validated.

Collaborative monitoring of location conditions

A computer-implemented system and method aggregate electronic response messages. A communication server receives a request message from a sender addressed to a plurality of users. The request message contains within it an aggregation indicator indicating that responses to the request message are to be aggregated. A response address is modified within the request message directing a response message from a user to go to a message aggregation server, and the modified message is sent to each of the plurality of users.

Aggregation of widely spread responses

An approach for enhancing speech reproduction based on recognizing text segments from sound segments of an audio signal. Enhanced text segments are generated from any text segments whose quality indicators do not reach a threshold level, and enhanced speech segments are synthetized from the enhanced text segments. An enhanced sound is reproduced comprising enhanced sound segments based on the enhanced speech segments.

Enhanced reproduction of speech on a computing system

A method, system, and program product for implementing automated feedback validation is provided. The method includes monitoring an Internet search associated with locating preferred user attributes associated with a specified geographical location. Results of the Internet search are analyzed and the preferred user attributes are verified for accuracy. Discrepancies between the preferred user attributes and attributes associated with the specified geographical location are determined and a resulting a confidence factor is applied to the preferred user attributes with respect to a level of accuracy of the preferred user attributes. A notification indicating a confidence rating applied to the preferred user attributes with respect to the level of accuracy is transmitted to the user.
