Abstract: One or more parameters, such as time, are reported to a center using a form. The center then automatically extracts data from the form and converts it for storage and subsequent processing or review. The form is preferably a tangible form, which the sender completes, and then faxes or emails to the center. Image capture, registration, and feature recognition routines are included to enable the center to extract the reported data with no need for data reentry or human intervention. The invention is particularly suitable for remote employees who need to submit time sheets, expense reports, and the like to an employer, or for automatic analysis of submitted inventory reports, product orders, etc.

Abstract translation: 一个或多个参数（如时间）使用表单报告给中心。 然后中心自动从表单中提取数据，并将其转换为存储和后续处理或审查。 表格最好是有形的形式，发件人完成，然后传真或电子邮件到中心。 包括图像捕获，注册和特征识别程序，使中心能够提取报告的数据，无需进行数据重入或人为干预。 本发明特别适用于需要向雇主提交时间表，费用报告等的远程雇员，或自动分析已提交的库存报告，产品订单等。

Abstract: Members working on the same project can access similar resources at substantially the same time to facilitate active participation in the project. A meeting associated with the project can be given a unique identifier that can allow the project members to access a meeting or other content and view similar documents or other content as it is discussed in the meeting. As information is edited, modified, created, etc. the members can selectively be presented with the information. A common repository can provide the members with an area or platform in which the project material can be accessed, discussed or other functions performed by the project members, allowing for collaboration of the project details.

Abstract translation: 在同一个项目上工作的成员可以在同一时间获得类似的资源，以促进项目的积极参与。 与项目相关的会议可以被给予唯一的标识符，可以允许项目成员访问会议或其他内容，并查看与会议讨论的类似文档或其他内容。 随着编辑，修改，创建等信息，成员可以选择性地呈现信息。 常见的存储库可以向成员提供一个可以访问，讨论的项目材料或项目成员执行的其他功能的区域或平台，从而允许项目细节的协调。

Abstract: This disclosure describes wastewater treatment systems and methods of treating wastewater. In one exemplary method, a wastewater is split into first and second wastewater fractions. The first fraction is delivered to a membrane bioreactor, which may produce an effluent with a low pollutant concentration, and the second fraction is delivered to a biological wastewater treatment system, which may yield a higher pollution concentration yet have a shorter solids retention time. Some implementations of the invention can routinely meet or even exceed pollution discharge standards quite economically during normal operation, yet retain significant flexibility for handling seasonal or sudden variations in the flow rate of wastewater into the system. In select adaptations, waste activated sludge containing heterotrophs, autotrophs, and (optionally) polyphosphate accumulating organisms is delivered from the membrane bioreactor to the biological wastewater treatment system.

Abstract translation: 本公开描述了废水处理系统和处理废水的方法。 在一个示例性方法中，废水被分成第一和第二废水馏分。 第一部分被递送到膜生物反应器，其可以产生污染物浓度低的流出物，并且将第二馏分输送到生物废水处理系统，这可能产生较高的污染浓度，但具有较短的固体滞留时间。 本发明的一些实施例可以在正常运行期间相当经济地达到或甚至超过污染排放标准，同时保留了处理废水流入系统的季节性或突然变化的显着灵活性。 在选择性适应中，含有异养菌，自养体和（任选地）聚磷酸盐积聚生物体的废活性污泥从膜生物反应器输送到生物废水处理系统。

Abstract: A media browsing system prepares various media content and synchronizes the content with a media player for playback. A user can specify the content and preconfigure the manner in which the content will be subsequently accessible through a common user interface on the media player. A variety of media players having configurable, common user interfaces promote a consistent media browsing experience across media players for users accessing a variety of preconfigured media content.

Abstract: Video and audio signals are streamed to remote viewers that are connected to a communication network. A host server receives an originating video and audio signal that may arrive from a single source or from a plurality of independent sources. The host server provides any combination of the originating video and audio signals to viewers connected to a communication network. A viewer requests the host server provide a combination of video and audio signals from the host server. The host server transmits an instruction set to be executed by the viewer. The instruction set causes the viewer to transmit parameters to the host user, including parameters relating to the processing capabilities of the viewer. The host server then transmits multimedia data to the viewer according to the received parameters. A plurality of viewers may be simultaneously connected to the host server. Each of the plurality of viewers may configure the received video and audio signals independent of any other viewer and may generate alerts based on the video and audio content.

Abstract translation: 视频和音频信号被流传输到连接到通信网络的远程观众。 主机服务器接收可以从单个源或多个独立源到达的起始视频和音频信号。 主机服务器将起始视频和音频信号的任何组合提供给连接到通信网络的观众。 观众请求主机服务器提供来自主机服务器的视频和音频信号的组合。 主机服务器发送要由观众执行的指令集。 指令集使得观看者向主机用户发送参数，包括与观众的处理能力有关的参数。 然后主机服务器根据接收到的参数向观众发送多媒体数据。 多个观看者可以同时连接到主机服务器。 多个观看者中的每一个可以独立于任何其他观看者配置所接收的视频和音频信号，并且可以基于视频和音频内容生成警报。

Abstract: A set of Application Program Interfaces (APIs) for a resource-limited environment are disclosed. The APIs provide a mechanism for a computer application to interface with various components and modules of an operating system for a resource-limited environment. The APIs further provide a mechanism to interface with input/output devices commonly found in embedded systems running in a resource-limited environment.
