A system for determining an average walk distance for a plurality of users of print-related services may include a processor, a processor-readable storage medium in communication with the processor and an output device in communication with the processor. The processor-readable storage medium may include programming instructions for identifying a plurality of print-related services in a facility and identifying a total number of users associated with the plurality of services. For each identified user, the processor-readable storage medium may include programming instructions for identifying the services used by the user, determining a usage level associated with the services, determining a distance between the user and the service, determining an average walk distance for the users and displaying, on the output device, the average walk distance.

Methods and systems for partitioning data for processing in a plurality of data centers are disclosed. For each of a plurality of data centers, a time period required for the data center to process an amount of information may be estimated. The plurality of data centers may be ordered based on the time period for each data center. Data may be received from one or more sources. A data center having a smallest time period from the ordered plurality of data centers may be selected to be added to a set of data centers. An overall execution time for the set of data centers to process the data may be determined. The selecting and determining operations may be repeated until the overall execution time satisfies one or more threshold criteria. The data may be transmitted to the set of data centers.

A system and related method for selectively controlling use of functionality in one or more multifunction devices includes a communications interface in operative communication with a printer and/or a display apparatus. The communications interfaces electronically communicates data with the printer and/or the display apparatus. The data includes a data structure configured to present an advertisement. The data may be print data or image data. The communications interface is operatively associated with an advertisement-credit component which can generate a credit value corresponding to the advertisement. The advertisement-credit component can subsidize multi-function device costs based upon a presented advertisement, e.g., the cost of printing, scanning, faxing, and related consumables including inks, toners and/or papers. The advertisement credit component authorizes use of a predetermined amount of a function with the credit value that corresponds to the advertisement.

What is disclosed is a novel system and method for parallel processing of intra-image data in a distributed computing environment. A generic architecture and method are presented which collectively facilitate image segmentation and block sorting and merging operations with a certain level of synchronization in a parallel image processing environment which has been traditionally difficult to parallelize. The present system and method enables pixel-level processing at higher speeds thus making it a viable service for a print/copy job document reproduction environment. The teachings hereof have been simulated on a cloud-based computing environment with a demonstrable increase of ≈2× with nominal 8-way parallelism, and an increase of ≈20×-100× on a graphics processor. In addition to production and office scenarios where intra-image processing are likely to be performed, these teachings are applicable to other domains where high-speed video and audio processing are desirable.
摘要:
A computer implementable online advertising method is provided. A basic price for publishing an advertisement for a pre-specified duration is determined. A score indicative of the performance of the advertisement during the pre-specified duration is determined. Whether the score satisfies a pre-determined criterion is determined. An incentive associated with publishing the advertisement is provided to an advertiser associated with the advertisement based on the pre-determined criterion being satisfied.
