Abstract

The present invention proposes a method for synthesizing time-sensitive ring tones in communication devices. This invention puts forth a recursive method that generates a new tune associated with various functions of mobile devices, at user-defined time intervals. By making the generation of tunes dynamic and using a permutation of various classical notes, different tunes can be generated, thus ameliorating the problems presented by prior art. Further, the user is able to record their likes or dislikes thereby outweighing the likelihood of a little liked tune being played too often. This invention finds its application in the area of ring-tones for cellular phones, amongst several other applications.
