摘要:
An approach for a publisher-assisted, broker-based cache that can be utilized to reduce a volume of data delivered between a publisher and broker is provided. Specifically, when a message is being generated on a publisher system, the publisher system will determine if the message includes a set of data that has a potential to be repeated in subsequent messages. An identified set of data will be associated/marked/tagged with a unique identifier corresponding thereto. The modified message will be sent to a broker system, which will detect/locate the unique identifier, cache the corresponding data, and send the message along to any applicable subscriber systems. When a subsequent message that is supposed to contain the cached set of data is generated, the publisher system will substitute the unique identifier for the set of data to yield an abbreviated message and send the abbreviated message to the broker system.

Embodiments of the present invention provide an approach for an enhanced pub/sub environment whereby a peer group of publishers is defined and can collaborate to determine when to cache data being sent to a common broker or brokers. Specifically, in a typical embodiment, configuration data or the like will be read to define a peer group among the publisher systems in the pub/sub messaging environment. Once such a group has been identified, communication therebetween will be established. Once cacheable data has been identified, a unique identifier/set of cache keys will be generated corresponding thereto and associated with the set of data. A message comprising the set of data and corresponding unique identifier will then be sent to a broker system (e.g., from the publisher system(s)), which will store (or have stored) the set of data in a cache, and pass the underlying message along to applicable subscriber system(s).

A server receives a sound file corresponding to a sound corresponding to a media file. The server compares the sound file to a library of media file sound recordings to identify a media file and a matching position in the media file of a final sound in the sound file. The server determines, from a data structure of media abbreviations, a media abbreviation that corresponds to a final sound data present in the sound file. The server transmits the media abbreviation to the addressable device.

A feedback application may be executing on a data processing system to transmit a screen update to at least two computers. The feedback application receives an indication of completion from a first computer, in response to transmitting the screen update. The feedback application updates a completion gauge to indicate a partial completion among participants, in response to receiving the indication of completion from the first computer. The feedback application receives a second indication of completion from a second computer, in response to transmitting the screen update. The feedback application updates the completion gauge to indicate a completion among participants, in response to receiving the indication of completion from the second computer.

Systems and methods are provided for controlling the use of electronic systems based upon monitored physical activity. The method can be implemented in a computer infrastructure having computer executable code tangibly embodied on a computer readable storage medium having programming instructions. The program instructions are operable to: provision rules associated with a user and at least one of health metrics and physical activity of the user; monitor the at least one health metrics and physical activity of the user over a predetermined time; and manage access to any of a plurality of electronic systems based on the monitored at least one health metrics and physical activity being in compliance or non-compliance with the provisioned rules.

An addressable device receives a user-characterized rewind description. The addressable device stores the user-characterized rewind description. The addressable device renders an at least one media file to include a resume point of the at least one media file. The addressable device receives a command to preferentially rewind. The addressable device, responsive to receiving the command to preferentially rewind, re-renders the at least one media file to the user-characterized rewind description such that the display shows the at least one media file at a replay point of the media file at least the user-characterized rewind description prior to the resume point.
摘要:
Embodiments of the present invention provide an approach for broker facilitated, publisher peer-to-peer (P2P) collaboration in a publish-subscription (pub/sub) environment. Specifically, in a typical embodiment, a broker system acts as an intermediary between publisher systems and subscriber systems in the pub/sub environment. Along these lines, the broker creates an administrative communication channel between known publisher systems and the broker system. Using this administrative communication channel, the broker system informs individual publisher systems about other publisher systems such that peer-to-peer communication channels between two or more publisher systems can be established. This can be accomplished using the broker system's knowledge of data being published by the individual publisher systems. Regardless, the publisher systems can then use information received from the broker system to: establish a P2P communication channel with one or more other publishers; identify a set of data that has commonality to the peers (and thus has a potential to be cached); and negotiate a caching schema/approach to store the data in a cache. The broker system may generate a set of cache key/unique identifiers and communicate the unique identifiers to at least one of the publisher peers, which will then share the unique identifiers among the peers. The set of data will then be cached (e.g., by a publisher system, a broker system and/or a subscriber system) using the unique identifiers.

The invention generally relates to systems and methods for advertising, and, more particularly, to systems and methods for providing immersive advertising in a virtual universe. In one aspect of the invention, there is a method for presenting a virtual universe advertisement (VU-ad) in a virtual universe (VU), receiving input from a user associated with a user avatar of the VU, and altering the VU-ad in response to the input.

An invention for preventing propagation of malicious content within a virtual universe is provided. In one embodiment, a malicious content propagation prevention tool provides this capability. The malicious content propagation prevention tool includes a scanning component configured to scan a plurality of inventory items within a virtual universe. An identification component is configured to identify a set of malicious inventory from the plurality of inventory items. The malicious content propagation prevention tool further comprises an assurance component configured to prevent propagation of malicious content within the virtual universe by performing at least one of the following: isolating the set of malicious inventory items, and modifying a malicious behavior caused by the set of malicious inventory items.
