摘要:
Systems, methods and computer program products for facilitating the recovery of lost real-time media packets within a computer network real-time application implementing Forward Error Control (FEC), such that server performance is not affected from a CPU and memory perspective, are disclosed. In an embodiment, a conference server that is part of a communication network compliant with the Real Time Transport Protocol (RTP) is able to avoid regenerating FEC packets by not performing any FEC coding operation on the packets unless it is flagged to indicate regeneration via an FEC (e.g., Reed-Solomon) coding is necessary. Absent the flag, the conference server updates the received FEC packet as per the RTP and transmits the packet to its ultimate destination. Such disclosed systems, methods and computer program products are independent of the nature of the media being protected and flexible enough to support a wide variety of FEC techniques.

Video conference rate matching may be provided. A video conference server may receive video source streams from clients on a video conference. The server may analyze each client's capabilities and choose a video stream to send to each client based on those capabilities. For example, a client capable of encoding and decoding a high definition video stream may provide three source video streams—a high definition stream, a medium resolution stream, and a low resolution stream. The server may send only the low resolution stream to a client with a low amount of available bandwidth. The server may send the medium resolution stream to another client with sufficient bandwidth for the high definition stream, but which lacks the ability to decode the high definition stream.

In a video conference system capable of providing multiple video streams, displayed streams for participants are configured based on automatic selection by the system (such as active speaker) and manual override by the participants. The displayed views are further enhanced by implementing duplicate detection to avoid display of duplicate streams between the automatic selections and manual selections.

Medical implant delivery devices and systems are disclosed. In general, an exemplary delivery device comprises a shaft and a handle. An exemplary system includes any number of the following: a delivery device, a sling assembly, guide members, and connectors that interconnect the above. Embodiments of all the above components and their combinations are disclosed. Methods of using the above system in trans-obturator approaches are disclosed.
摘要:
Techniques to perform rate matching for multimedia conference calls are described. An apparatus may comprise a conferencing server and a rate matching module. The rate matching module may be arranged to adjust bit rates between media communications channels for client terminals in a conference call, with the rate matching module to remove video frames from a set of video information received on a first media communications channel to reduce a bit rate for the video information. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
摘要:
Method and apparatus for accomplishing an agent log-on to an automatic call distribution system, which requires a telephone identifier corresponding with an agent, without making a circuit switched telephone connection or using a circuit switched voice port. A pseudo-port is used to emulate the circuit switched voice port, permitting completion of the log-on, and permitting execution of “call” handling functions with respect to the agent for “calls” not requiring a circuit switched telephone connection.
摘要:
A steam cooker assembly includes a cooking pot having a cooking chamber positioned above a fluid reservoir facilitating steam from a boiling fluid in the fluid reservoir to pass upwardly through the cooking chamber. A lid is positionable on the cooking pot to retain the steam within the cooking pot. A fill pipe is attached to the cooking pot thereby facilitating fluid to be added to the fluid reservoir without removing the lid from the cooking pot. A basket is positionable within the cooking pot and a plurality of steam tubes is each positionable in the basket thereby facilitating the steam from the boiling fluid to rise upwardly through the steam tubes. A plurality of disks is provided and each of the steam tubes is extendable through the disks facilitating each of the disks to support a food item to cook the food item with the steam.

摘要:
Location of a communication network subscriber is determined employing confidence metrics such as remote vs. local computer usage, primary user in a multi-user computing environment, likelihood of forgery, and comparable ones. A fine-grained location determination is then made based on the metric results and directory information for the particular subscriber such that services like emergency services can be provided with accurate location information.
