Abstract: In a computer system having a digital signal processor for processing tasks in real-time within a series of frames, a method is described for determining whether there is enough processing time available within each frame to process the task such that the frame's total processing time is not exceeded. First, the task's processing time requirement is determined. The time for executing the current task list is then calculated. Next, the remaining amount of processing time available in the frame is determined. This is accomplished by subtracting the current task list execution time from the frame's total processing time. The new task is installed in the task list if the frame's available processing time is at least as great as the task's required processing time. Otherwise, the task is not installed in the task list and an error indication is generated.

Abstract: In a computer system having a digital signal processor for processing a number of tasks within a frame, a method for handling a frame overrun wherein the tasks cannot be processed within the frame. First, the frame overrun is detected. Next, each of the tasks are compared with a processing time which had been allocated to it. A determination is made as to which of these tasks had exceeded its allotted processing time by the greatest amount. The worst case client is notified that its task has caused an overrun. All other non-system task clients are notified that a overrun has occurred. All but system support tasks are inactivated, and processing continues. Each client must determine the correct action to take, including restarting the tasks where they left off, restarting from the beginning, or quitting. Methods for handling more serious overruns are also described.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing multiple clients simultaneous access to a sound input/output (I/O) data stream. The present invention provides a method and apparatus for providing multiple programming data structures and multiple patch points in a list, in which each of the patch points are positioned relative to at least one of the programming data structures and is capable of receiving at least one programming data structure for insertion into the list to perform a function. The present invention also includes a method and apparatus for providing at least one buffer for inputting the data stream into and/or receiving the data stream output from each of inserted programming structures, such that each inserted structure can access and operate on the data stream. In this way, multiple clients can access and process the data stream transparently, without interfering with the operation of other clients, yet affecting the sound stream in the desired way.

Abstract: This invention provides a set of downhill snow skis having frontwardly converging internal edges and grooves formed in the running surfaces thereof. In particular, at least one groove is formed in each of the running surfaces, extending from a point proximate the outer rear portion of each ski to a point proximate the inner front portion of each ski. The frontwardly converging grooves make it easier to learn how to downhill ski and thus, facilitate downhill skiing lessons for beginning skiers. The present invention also provides a set of cross-country snow skis having rearwardly converging internal edges and grooves formed in the running surfaces thereof. In particular, at least one groove is formed in each of the running surfaces, extending from a point proximate the inner rear portion of each ski to a point proximate the outer front portion of each ski. The rearwardly converging grooves make it easier to perform certain cross-country skiing maneuvers and thus, facilitate cross-country skiing lessons for beginning skiers.

Abstract: Automatically configuring a portable electronic device for accessing a site on a public network is disclosed. The method and system include establishing a connection to at least one server for establishing and maintaining website accounts, and sending information uniquely identifying the electronic device to the at least one server. The at least one server sends user account information to the device, including an account ID and password, created based on the electronic device information. The user account information is stored on the device for use the next time the device accesses the website, whereby the user does not have to enter account information in order to establish the ISP connection or the website account before accessing the public network or, if the user account is not completely set up, to establish the user account a next time the device connects to the at least one server.

Abstract: A home relationship is established between a device and a network by storing an ownership record in the device that identifies the network, and storing in the network a device identifier that identifies the device. Thereafter, communication is established between the device and the network. The ownership record is then transmitted from the network to the device, and automatic access to the device is granted to the network once the device verifies the transmitted ownership record against the ownership record stored in the device. In addition, the device identifier is transmitted from the device to the network, and automatic access to the network is granted to the device once the network verifies the transmitted device identifier against the device identifier stored in the network.

Abstract: A system and method for Internet video conferencing is provided. Efficient interactive video conferencing protocols for routing video streams greatly reduce the loads on the attendee's device and on the central server. Additionally, efficient control protocols simulate complex human group procedures and control who is speaking (who has the floor) in three distinct modes of conference interaction: class mode (at least one facilitator/moderator/teacher/leader), group mode (no facilitator), and multi-interactive mode (subgroups of a main group, preferably of a main group which is in group mode).
