In general, embodiments of the present invention provide an approach for caching potentially repetitive data in a publication-subscription (pub/sub) environment. Specifically, in a typical embodiment, when a message is received on a broker system from a publisher system, the broker system analyzes the message for potentially repetitive data. Such data can be determined from historical messages (e.g., determining that a certain set of data appeared in multiple messages and is thus flagged in a database or the like), a set of rules (e.g., if data set “Y” appears, flag it as potentially repetitive), etc. Regardless, once such a set of data has been identified, the set of data will be cached, and a unique identifier/tag corresponding thereto will be sent to the publisher system and to applicable subscribers. Thereafter, any subsequent message including the same data will contain the unique identifier in place of the cached data (i.e., an abbreviated message). The abbreviated message can be sent from the publisher system to the broker system, and then onto the subscriber system, which will retrieve the data from the shared cache and replace the unique identifier in the abbreviated message with the cached data to yield a complete message. Thus, once data has been cached, there is only a need to send an abbreviated message, which will save network bandwidth.

A method, system and computer program provide a mechanism for smoothing the transition back from a virtual (computer generated) scene to a related video stream. An event such as a user input or timeout is received triggering a return to display of the video stream from a virtual scene related to content of the video stream. A number of time points and/or camera angles are either presented to the user or are automatically searched for the best match. The list may be presented in order according to an automatically detected matching criteria. The virtual scene may a scene constructed locally within a computer or digital video recorder (DVR) and the matching performed locally based on angle and time information provided from a content provider such as a server, or the virtual scene generation and matching may be performed at a remote location such as the content server.

A system, method, and computer program product for comparing a low quality broadcast to a high quality broadcast on a display device to show users the benefits of a high quality broadcast over a low quality broadcast. The display device capabilities are detected and compared to retrieved requirements for displaying a high quality broadcast. If the display requirements are met, retrieving the high quality broadcast and displaying the low quality and high quality broadcasts on a display device for user comparison. Then, the user accepts either the high quality or low quality broadcast and displays the high quality broadcast or the low quality broadcast in accordance with the user selection.

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for a low power document editing mode for mobile computing devices. In an embodiment of the invention, a battery powered computing device can be configured for power optimized document editing, the computing device. The device can include a central processing unit (CPU), both coupled to a battery, memory, fixed storage and a display within a single computing case. The device also can include a primary personal computing operating system and also an auxiliary low-power consumption operating system each stored in fixed storage, each including a configuration to access an editable document in the fixed storage. Finally, the device can include a boot read only memory (ROM) programmed to selectively bootstrap into either the primary personal computing operating system or the auxiliary low-power consumption operating system.

A method and a system for replacement of programs on a video recorder based on preferences and size constraints of a video recorder. The video recorder compares recorded programs in the computer readable storage media and a schedule of programs to be recorded to a plurality of global preferences and program specific preferences specifying preferred recording quality. For each recorded program whose quality does not match a global preference or program specific preference, a listing of future programs is examined for alternate versions of the program which do match a global preference or program specific preference.

Embodiments of the invention include a method that comprises receiving a request to record television content on a specified channel for a specified period of time. The method can also include tuning to the specified channel at the specified time, and recording the specified content. The method can also include determining that one or more segments of the television content is corrupted. The method can also include presenting a notification indicating that some of the television content is corrupted, retuning to the specified channel made by the request, and acquiring uncorrupted television content for use in replacing the one or more segments of corrupted television content.

An RFID Probe comprises a pole with a plurality of sensors that indicate RF signal strength attached at regular intervals and marked to indicate distance from an end of the pole. A user employs the RFID Probe by placing the probe between densely packed materials, such as cases on a pallet, and exposing the RFID Probe and packaging to a signal from a RIFD transceiver. After exposing the RFID Probe to the RFID transceiver signal, the user removes the RFID Probe from the packed materials and observes the sensors on the probe. By noting the location on the probe of the sensors indicating low or no RF signal, the user can identify locations where RF signal strength is insufficient to activate an RFID tag.
