摘要:
Methods, apparatus and systems for generating a trusted digital time stamp as well as a public time source. It includes, an apparatus for receiving and recording public time information and a method for verifying a digital time stamp. A method for generating a trusted digital time stamp includes: obtaining a first time information and a corresponding random code from a public time source; and generating a digital time stamp using a first time information and random code. A method for verifying a digital time stamp includes: recording time information and corresponding random codes transmitted by a public time source; retrieving time information and a random code contained in the time stamp; and comparing a retrieved random code from the time stamp with one of the recorded random codes that corresponds to a time information in the time stamp, if they are consistent, the time stamp is determined to be trusted, otherwise the time stamp is determined to be not trusted.

A method and apparatus for digital rights management (DRM) with steps and means for receiving a registration request from one of a plurality of DRM agent devices requesting to register one of a plurality of user accounts and the one DRM agent device to one of a plurality of rights issuers, completing a registration process in the one rights issuer, including establishment of a relationship among the one user account, the one DRM agent device and the one rights issuer; and returning a registration completion response to the one DRM agent device. The invention provides support to the many-to-many relationships among DRM entities, such as DRM agent device, user account and rights issuer, so that the DRM system can be applied to more business modes.
摘要:
An apparatus and a method for dynamically determining a connection establishment mechanism between virtual machines (VMs) based on locations of the VMs. The apparatus includes a communication agent unit for receiving messages relating to the locations of the VMs, a control unit for determining the connection establishment mechanism between the VMs based on the received messages and a controlling mechanism to establish a connection between the VMs according to the determined connection establishment mechanism. The method includes receiving messages relating to the locations of the VMs, determining the connection establishment mechanism between the VMs based on the received messages, and establishing a connection between the VMs according to the determined connection establishment mechanism.

A system and method for motion estimation involves obtaining input image frames, where the input image frames correspond to different instances in time, and performing motion estimation on the input image frames using depth information from the input image frames, where the depth information from an input image frame indicates how far a pixel in the input image frame is located from a surface of a three dimensional space.

A method and system for parsing a markup language document are disclosed in the invention. The method comprises: pre-splitting a body of the markup language document into plurality parts; scanning each of the plurality parts, wherein while each of the parts is scanned, the scanning of the part is stopped only when a specific mark is found, and then a stop point at which the scanning is stopped is recorded; splitting the body of the markup language document into a plurality of fragments using the respective stop points; parsing the plurality of fragments in parallel and producing parsing results for the respective fragments; and combining the parsing results for the respective fragments to form a parsing result for the markup language document. A parsing method that supports namespace is also provided.

A method of image analysis, includes: obtaining a sequence (37; 51) of images, each represented by pixel data; performing a vision-based analysis on at least one of the sequence (37; 51) of images to obtain data for classifying a state of a subject represented in the images;—determining at least one value of a physiological parameter of a living being represented in at least some of the sequence (37; 51) of images; and classifying a state of the subject using the data obtained with the vision-based analysis and the at least one value of the physiological parameter. The at least one value of the physiological parameter is determined through analysis of image data from the same sequence (37; 51) of images from which the at least one image on which the vision-based analysis is performed is taken. A method of enabling remote photoplethysmographic analysis includes: obtaining a sequence (37; 51) of images from at least one camera (3), each represented by pixel data representative of reflected ambient light in at least a limited range of wavelengths; and, for at least one measurement zone (41), providing a signal representative of at least variations in a time-varying value of a combination of pixel values at least a number of image points in the measurement zone (41) for use in determining at least one value of a physiological parameter. At least part of a selected subject represented in the sequence (37; 51) of images is tracked, and a directable light source (4) illuminating at least part of the selected subject is controlled.
摘要:
This invention provides molecular markers that are prognostic and/or diagnostic for a psychiatric disorder. In particular, genes are identified whose expression is altered in schizophrenia and/or bipolar disorder thereby providing prognostic and diagnostic markers for the disorder. In addition genes are identified whose dysregulation provides markers that allow diagnostic distinction between schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.

A pipelining processing method and apparatus in multi-processor environment partitions a task into overlapping sub-tasks that are to be allocated to multiple processors, overlapping portions among the respective sub-tasks being shared by the processors that process corresponding sub-tasks. A status of each of the processors is determined during a process where each of the processors executes sub-tasks and the overlapping portions among the respective sub-tasks to be executed by which processor among the processors is dynamically determined on the basis of the status of each of the processors.

Video On Demand system providing video programs between a program provider and a plurality of clients coupled over a peer to peer network. Transmitting a requested video program from a first client on a first channel. Allocating a second channel for transmitting the video program requested by a second client. The first client forwarding the video program to the second client on the second channel from the beginning of the video program received and stored. Controlling the second client to receive and store the video program sent on the first channel in synchronization with the first client. Merging the second channel into the first channel in response to notification that the program received from the first client by the second client reaches a starting point of the program received and stored by the second client. Notifying the first client to stop sending the video program to the second client.
