Abstract: An approach for presenting a web page to a client user via a web browser. As one example, a user preference specifying a notification setting may be received from the client user at the web browser. The notification setting may cause the web browser, upon retrieving a web page, to present one or more of a privacy notice or a legal notice to the client user. The particular way in which the privacy notice and the legal notice are presented to the client user may be varied based on the notification setting specified by the user preference.

Abstract: An authoring application enables an administrative user to generate, validate, and deploy one or more privacy notices and legal notices in web pages that may be retrieved by a client user via a web browser. Two or more of the privacy notices generated by the authoring application may be deployed in a web page, and may be selectively presented to the client user via the web browser in accordance with the notification setting selected at the web browser. Two or more of the legal notices generated by the authoring application may be deployed in the web page or in a second web page. The legal notices may be selectively presented to the client user via the web browser in accordance with the notification setting.

Abstract: The present invention provides method and apparatus for supporting a legacy application programming interface (API) set between a component and a color management system. The legacy API set supports both the new capabilities as well as the legacy capabilities. The color management system determines the format type for an object that is referenced by an API call. If the object is associated with a legacy format, the API call is processed by a legacy processing module. If the object is associated with an advanced format, the API call is processed by an advanced processing module. If a plurality of objects is associated with an API call with mixed formats, the color management system converts some of the objects so that the objects have a consistent format. A common structure supports an object that may have either a legacy format or an advanced format.

Abstract translation: 本发明提供了用于支持在组件和颜色管理系统之间的遗留应用编程接口（API）集合的方法和装置。 遗留API集既支持新功能又支持传统功能。 颜色管理系统确定由API调用引用的对象的格式类型。 如果对象与旧格式相关联，则API调用由传统处理模块处理。 如果对象与高级格式相关联，则API调用由高级处理模块处理。 如果多个对象与具有混合格式的API调用相关联，则颜色管理系统转换一些对象，使得对象具有一致的格式。 通用结构支持可能具有旧格式或高级格式的对象。

Abstract: A media integration layer including an application programming interface (API) and an object model allows program code developers to interface in a consistent manner with a scene graph data structure in order to output graphics. Via the interfaces, program code adds child visuals to other visuals to build up a hierarchical scene graph, writes Instruction Lists such as geometry data, image data, animation data and other data for output, and may specify transform, clipping and opacity properties on visuals. The media integration layer and API enable programmers to accomplish composition effects within their applications in a straightforward manner, while leveraging the graphics processing unit in a manner that does not adversely impact normal application performance. A multiple-level system includes the ability to combine different media types (such as 2D, 3D, Video, Audio, text and imaging) and animate them smoothly and seamlessly.

Abstract translation: 包括应用编程接口（API）和对象模型的媒体集成层允许程序代码开发者以一致的方式与场景图数据结构进行接口，以输出图形。 通过界面，程序代码可以将其他视觉效果添加到其他视觉效果中，以构建一个分层场景图形，写入指令列表，如几何数据，图像数据，动画数据和其他数据以供输出，并可以指定视觉上的变换，剪切和不透明度属性 。 媒体集成层和API使程序员能够以直接的方式在其应用程序中完成组合效果，同时以不会对正常应用程序性能产生不利影响的方式利用图形处理单元。 多级系统包括组合不同媒体类型（例如2D，3D，视频，音频，文本和成像）的能力，并将其平滑无缝地动画化。

Abstract: This present invention provides a system and method for transforming a main image of a digital image, such as one stored in the Exchangeable Image File (“EXIF”) format, updating the metadata, including the thumbnail image, to correspond to the transformed main image. The transformed main image and updated metadata are stored together in a file using the EXIF format so that the transformed main image may be viewed using a digital camera or viewer software compatible with a properly formatted EXIF file.

Abstract: Several embodiments of medical ultrasound handpieces are described each including a medical ultrasound transducer assembly. An embodiment of a medical ultrasound system is described, wherein the medical ultrasound system includes a medical ultrasound handpiece having a medical ultrasound transducer assembly and includes an ultrasonically-vibratable medical-treatment instrument which is attachable to a distal end of the transducer assembly. An embodiment of a medical ultrasound system is described, wherein the medical ultrasound system has a handpiece including a medical ultrasound transducer assembly and including a housing or housing component surrounding the transducer assembly. A method for tuning a medical ultrasound handpiece includes machining at least a distal non-threaded portion of an instrument-attachment stud of the transducer assembly to match a measured fundamental frequency to a desired fundamental frequency to within a predetermined limit. A method for making a medical ultrasound transducer assembly determines acceptable gains for gain stages of the transducer assembly.

Abstract: A system and method for selectively setting gamut map model defaults in a color management system is disclosed for transforming colors from a first color space to a second color space. The method includes the steps of comprises determining the profile associated with the second color space from one of an ICC profile, a device model profile and a system default profile; associating a color appearance profile and a gamut mapping profile based on the profile; and selecting at least one of the color appearance and gamut mapping profiles based on the profile associated with the second color space.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a system and method of securely providing extensible third-party plug-ins to user computers. The system enables third-parties to authenticate themselves to user computers before a user computer is allowed to load the plug-ins. The system also creates separate processes that are spawned from a main process in order to securely execute the third-party plug-ins. Security is further enhanced by assigning a privilege level to the separate process that is lower than the main process.
