摘要:
Methods and systems to obtain content and generate modified content based on a time limited content consumption information is disclosed. In one embodiment, content may be obtained from a content source and modified based on the time limited content consumption information. In one embodiment, such modified content is stored in a memory of a content modification system and subsequently delivered to a target consumer.

摘要:
A method, system, and computer program product for monitoring performance of a network providing content to an Internet Protocol device are provided. The method includes assigning an Internet Protocol address to a network monitoring system to establish a communication between the network monitoring system and an Internet Protocol device associated with the Internet Protocol address. The method also includes gathering performance data corresponding to the network and providing the Internet Protocol device with access to the performance data corresponding to the network via the Internet Protocol address.
摘要:
The present invention provides a piezoelectric transducer that includes at least two poled piezoelectric regions disposed in a side-by-side arrangement and connected in series with the poling directions reversed through the series connection, meaning that the “north pole” of one region is connected to the “south pole” of an adjacent region. The at least two regions can be within the same piece of piezoelectric material, or can be separate pieces of piezoelectric material. Transducers of the present invention may be particularly suited to detecting vibrations such as bending waves in a plate. For example, transducers of the present invention may be affixed to a surface of a plate and used to detect vibrations caused by or affected by touches to the plate to determine information related to the touches, such a touch position.

A loudspeaker comprising a bending wave panel-form acoustic radiator having a first portion and at least one further portion a transducer for exciting bending waves in the radiator, the transducer being coupled to the further portion of the radiator to cause the radiator to radiate an acoustic output, and means confining low frequency radiation to the further portion of the radiator.
摘要:
Bending wave vibration is used to calculate information relating to a contact on a contact sensitive device. The contact sensitive device has a member capable of supporting bending waves, and a device attached to the member measures bending wave propagation in the member to determine a measured bending wave signal. The measured bending wave signal is processed to calculate information relating to the contact. The contact sensitive device may comprise a transparent touch sensitive plate mounted in front of a display device.

Audio apparatus (30) comprising a piezoelectric transducer (44) and coupling means (54) for coupling the transducer to a user's pinna (32) whereby the transducer excites vibration in the pinna (32) to cause it to transmit an acoustic signal from the transducer (44) to a user's inner ear, characterised in that the transducer is embedded in a casing (42) of relatively soft material and the casing (42) is mounted to a housing (34) of relatively hard material such that a cavity (48) is defined between the casing (42) and housing (34). A method of designing audio apparatus comprising mechanically coupling a piezoelectric transducer to a user's pinna and driving the transducer so that the transducer excites vibration in the pinna to cause it to transmit an acoustic signal from the transducer to a user's inner ear, characterised by embedding the transducer in a casing of relatively soft material and by mounting the casing to protective housing of relatively hard material such that a cavity is defined between the casing and housing.
摘要:
A system, method and computer program for managing resources within an integrated development environment for multiple users. The resources include both content resources and people resources. The method comprising: managing a plurality of nodes representing resources, said nodes including content nodes and person nodes, wherein the node contains a resource reference for referencing the resource; managing one or more links representing one or more relationships between the resources, said links including links between content nodes, between person nodes and between content and person nodes, each link comprising node references to identify the nodes in the relationships and an importance value to identify the importance of the relationship; providing an interface for selecting one of the plurality of content nodes or person nodes; and copying links that are to be adapted from persistent memory to cache memory and updating the link in persistent memory from cache memory based on a change in criteria and the importance value of the link.
摘要:
A privacy management system is disclosed for when a calling party has a private telephone number. Privacy screening services allow a subscriber to manage and monitor incoming telephone calls, such that unwanted calls are not terminated to the subscriber. When a calling party calls the subscriber to this privacy screening service, the privacy management system manages the call according to whether the calling party number is known and public, known and private, or unknown. If the calling party number is known and public, the call is routed to the subscriber. If, however, the calling party is known and private, an announcement is played to the calling party, asking the calling party for permission to override his or her privacy. If the calling party is unknown, the calling party is asked to record his/her name.
