    摘要： Embodiments of the present invention provide method and apparatus for determining audience affinity and/or aptitude in portions of media works and for developing information that represent measures of the audience affinity and/or aptitude. Further embodiments of present invention provide method and apparatus for utilizing the information to create altered media works and/or to present the altered media works to an audience. One embodiment of the present invention is a method for inferring audience affinity or aptitude with regard to content or properties of portions of a media work which includes: (a) presenting the media work to an audience; (b) obtaining user input regarding presentation rates for the portions of the media work; (c) correlating content or properties of the portion with the presentation rates; and; (d) associating audience affinity or aptitude with the correlated content or properties.

    摘要： In the present invention a predetermined number of bits are added to each entry in the process table. These bits are used to indicate the warmth of the cache with respect to the particular schedulable unit such as a process or thread of a process. The scheduler will then review, not only the priority of the schedulable unit, but the warmth of the cache in order to determine the schedulable unit to be scheduled next with respect to a particular processor. For example, these cache warmth bits may be used to identify the processor the schedulable unit previously executed on such that the scheduler will only schedule the schedulable unit with the processor previously executed on in order to take advantage of the schedulable unit data located in the the cache associated with the processor. The system may be extended to provide more sophisticated models for determining cache warmth and the scheduling of processes and process threads.

    摘要翻译： 在本发明中，预定数量的比特被添加到处理表中的每个条目。 这些位用于指示高速缓存相对于特定可调度单元（例如进程的进程或线程）的温暖。 然后，调度器将不仅查看可调度单元的优先级，而且可以检查高速缓存的温度，以便确定下一个相对于特定处理器调度的可调度单元。 例如，这些高速缓存保温位可以用于将先前执行的可调度单元识别为处理器，使得调度器将仅对先前执行的处理器调度可调度单元，以利用位于该可调度单元中的可调度单元数据 缓存与处理器相关联。 该系统可以被扩展以提供用于确定缓存温暖和进程和处理线程的调度的更复杂的模型。
