A method and system are provided. In one embodiment, a video image is preprocessed from a video camera to separate objects to be tracked from the rest of the video image. Statistics for the tracked objects and the rest of the video image are computed. Further, a quality measure based on the statistics for the tracked objects and the rest of the video image are generated. The quality measure indicates the suitability of the video image for use by an object tracking system. The generating of the quality measure maximizes saturation of each of the tracked objects. Further, the video camera is tuned to increase the quality measure beyond a threshold.

A method and apparatus for generating a monitoring view of an executable business process. The method comprises the steps of: obtaining a business process model from an executable business process template; generating a business process monitoring model from the business process model; obtaining status data of a business process instance from a business process engine; generating a business process monitoring model instance by combining the status data with the business process monitoring model; and presenting the business process monitoring model instance as a monitoring view for a user to monitor a running business process instance. The apparatus includes hardware for accomplishing the foregoing method steps.

Provides processing logic modeling and executing methods, systems and apparatus. These facilitate collaboration between business analyst and IT staff for process modeling and maintenance of the consistency between business level design and IT implementation design. A task is decomposed into sub-tasks and is represented by a tree. Annotations to the nodes of the tree are used to represent the relations between the sub-tasks. A processing logic is thus completed. When executing the processing logic, traversing the tree follows according to the annotations.

A dynamic AC prediction technique is implemented in a data partition mode which automatically disables AC prediction for encoding the current macroblock in the next packet when packet overflow occurs. Otherwise, when there is no overflow, AC prediction remains enabled to maintain compression efficiency. More particularly, in the preferred embodiment, a determination is first made whether a macroblock causes a packet overflow if it is encoded in the current packet. If so, a new packet is initiated into which the macroblock is encoded without AC prediction as the first macroblock. Otherwise, the macroblock with AC prediction remains in the current packet and a new macroblock is encoded.

A hybrid energy storage device has at least one lead-based positive electrode and at least one carbon-based negative electrode, a separator between the electrodes, a casing which will contain the electrodes and separator, and an acid electrolyte. The separator is gas permeable, and is capable of absorbing and entraining acid electrolyte. The separator has a finite capacity for absorption of acid electrolyte, and the quantity of acid electrolyte which is present in the cell is less than the finite capacity of the separator. Upon assembly of the cell, the casing is sealed, and there is no liquid acid electrolyte within the assembled cell.
摘要:
A method for monitoring a business process, comprising modeling the business process to obtain a business process model including IT activities and non-IT activities; auto-defining an activity state dependency table for the non-IT activities; monitoring states of said IT activities; and monitoring, by referring to said activity state dependency table, states of said non-IT activities. By implementing the present invention, all the activities (including IT and non-IT activities) in the business process can be monitored, so that it is convenient for a user to know a status of the overall business process. In addition, the present invention utilizes visual text, icon, video and audio to display the activities and their states, which is helpful for the user to monitor and understand the status of the business process.
摘要:
An energy conversion device includes a plurality of pores formed within a substrate and a junction region disposed within each of the plurality of pores where each of the junction regions has a depletion region. Each of the plurality of pores defines an opening size in the substrate and a spacing from adjacent pores so that the depletion regions of each of the pores are at least substantially in contact with the depletion region of the pores which are adjacent.

A computational technique to construct a 3-D valve leaflet geometry. The invention pertains to methodology to construct a 3-D heart valve leaflet geometry using finite element analysis (FEA) to simulate the manual assembly process or, in other words, provide a virtual assembly process as an input to a subsequent simulated valve testing step. The simulated valves may be subjected to simulated cyclic valve opening and closings and the stress levels induced therein monitored. Simulated valve designs with lower principal stresses can then be selected for prototyping. Proposed valves can be subjected to cyclic fatigue stress testing under simulated physiologic conditions to study valve durability.
