Abstract:
A keyboard image may be displayed on the display of a processor-based system to facilitate the entry of data. The keyboard image may include a plurality of key images which may be user selected to make data entries. The keyboard image may be positioned on the display and any data entry areas or other associated textual matter may be moved to facilitate the simultaneous display of data entry areas, associated text or graphics, and the keyboard image without substantial obstruction.
Abstract:
The present invention is suitable for use in a communications system that downloads applications over a broadcast file system (BFS). An application services interface (ASI) provides the BFS an application file including a configuration file and an image file that are stored in a service manager in set-tops. Additionally, the ASI provides the BFS a content file that is included in the application file. The provided content file is separated into service files, where each service file is associated with a particular service. When a set-top requests a service, the associated service file is subsequently loaded onto the set-top. Alternatively, a service file is stored in memory until such time as another service is requested, which at that point the older service file is removed from memory to allow space for the newly requested service file.
Abstract:
An XML document can be represented in a compact binary form that maintains all of the features of XML data in a useable form. In response to a request for a modification (e.g., insert, delete or update a node) to an XML document that is stored in the compact binary form, a certain representation of the requested modification is computed for application directly to the binary form of the document. Thus, the requested modification is applied directly to the persistently stored binary form without constructing an object tree or materializing the XML document into a corresponding textual form. Taking into account the nature of the binary form in which the document is encoded, the bytes that actually require change are identified, including identifying where in the binary representation the corresponding actual changes need to be made.
Abstract:
In a multi-processor system, an executable software image including an image header and a segmented data image is scatter loaded from a first processor to a second processor. The image header contains the target locations for the data image segments to be scatter loaded into memory of the second processor. Once the image header has been processed, the data segments may be directly loaded into the memory of the second processor without further CPU involvement from the second processor.
Abstract:
A system for receiving redirected electronic media playback includes a proxy configured to communicate with a remote access module. The remote access module is configured to establish a remote access connection between the system and a remote system. The proxy is configured to receive, over the remote access connection, a decode request for electronic media content designated for a local multimedia application on the system, and in return, provide a result for the request. The proxy is also configured to receive at least one playback command designated for playing the electronic media content on the local multimedia application. The electronic media appears to be playing on a remote multimedia application on the remote system corresponding to the local multimedia application, but is played on the local multimedia application. A system for redirecting playback of electronic media content to a remote system, methods, and machine-readable media are also provided.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a hydroxyalkyl starch conjugate and a method for preparing the same, said hydroxy-yalkyl starch conjugate comprising a hydroxyalkyl starch derivative and a cytotoxic agent, the cytotoxic agent comprising at least one secondary hydroxyl group, wherein the hydroxyalkyl starch is linked via said secondary hydroxyl group to the cytotoxic agent. The conjugate according to the present invention has a structure according to the following formula HAS′(-L-M)n wherein M is a residue of the cytotoxic agent, L is a linking moiety, HAS′ is the residue of the hydroxyalkyl starch derivative, and n is greater than or equal to 1, and wherein the hydroxyalkyl starch derivative has a mean molecular weight (MW) above the renal threshold.
Abstract:
Association information is used to build association trees to associate base pages and embedded objects at a proxy. An association tree has a root node containing a URL for a base page, and zero or more leaf nodes each containing a URL for an embedded object. In most cases, an association tree will maintain the invariant that all leaves contain distinct URLs. However, it is also possible to have an association tree in which the same URL appears in multiple nodes. An association tree may optionally contain one or more internal nodes, each of which contains a URL that is an embedded object for some other base page, but which may also be fetched as a base page itself. Given a number of association trees and a base-page URL, a prefetch system finds the root or interior node corresponding to that URL (if any) and traverses the tree from that node, prefetching URLs until the URL of the last leaf node is prefetched. The prefetching starts the process of bringing over the various embedded objects before the user or program would ordinarily fetch them.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to hydroxyalkyl starch conjugates and a method for preparing the same, the hydroxyalkyl starch conjugate comprising a hydroxyalkyl starch derivative and a cytotoxic agent, the cytotoxic agent comprising at least one primary hydroxyl group, wherein the hydroxyalkyl starch is linked via said primary hydroxyl group to the cytotoxic agent. The conjugates according to the present invention have a structure according to the following formula HAS′(-L-M)n wherein M is a residue of the cytotoxic agent, L is a linking moiety, HAS′ is the residue of the hydroxyalkyl starch derivative, and n is greater than or equal to 1, and wherein the hydroxyalkyl starch derivative has a mean molecular weight (MW) above the renal threshold and a molar substitution (MS) in the range of from 0.6 to 1.5.
