Disclosed are apparatuses, computer readable storage media with instructions that carry out methods, and methods of (a) coding quantized transform coefficients as occur in image compression to form codewords, and (b) decoding a bitstream comprising the codewords. The coding combines a position identifying method to identify the relative position of clusters of consecutive non-zero-valued quantized transform coefficients, an amplitude event identifying method to identify amplitude events in the clusters of non-zero-valued quantized transform coefficients, and a coding method to code the position events, amplitude events, and signs of the amplitudes in the clusters. The coding method is particularly applicable to an ordered series of quantized transform coefficients where clusters are likely-to-occur.

In one embodiment, a method includes accessing first data describing online activities of a user and accessing second data describing online activities of each of one or more content publishers. The method includes, based at least in part on the first data and the second data, determining one or more similarities between the user and each of the content publishers. The method includes, based at least in part on one or more of the similarities, selecting each of one or more of the content publishers as a key influencer for the user and selecting particular content published by a particular one of the key influencers for summary and delivery to the user. The method includes generating a summary of the particular content and automatically delivering to the user the particular content and the summary.

An apparatus, e.g., in a network edge device, a method, and a software program product for synchronizing two or more redundant media streams, e.g., MPEG video streams. The method includes receiving network packets encapsulating redundant media streams representing the same media program, buffering the received streams, learning a program identifier for the media program, searching the packets of the redundant streams for synchronization points defined by a plurality of parameters of stream packets, synchronizing the redundant streams based on the comparison, and providing a single stream as an output stream.

Methods and apparatus for using a presence status to generate a list of possible contacts based on a partial entry of a contact address are disclosed. According to one aspect of the present invention, a method includes obtaining at least a partial entry of a destination address that identifies a first destination to be accessed. The method also includes identifying a plurality of potential destinations that each includes the partial entry, and determining a presence status of each potential destination. Finally, the method also includes ordering the potential destinations based on the presence status of each potential destination.

A method, and apparatus, and logic encoded in one or more computer-readable tangible medium to carry out a method. The method is to code an ordered sequence of quantized transform coefficients of a block of image data using a hybrid coding method that includes determining a breakpoint location in the sequence between a low-frequency region and a high-frequency region; coding the low-frequency region using a selected low-frequency variable length coding method; coding the high-frequency region using a selected high-frequency variable length coding method; and coding the location of the breakpoint. The breakpoint location is determined as a function of properties of neighboring blocks such that little if any information needs to be sent to a decoder about the breakpoint of a block or multi-block partition, and the decoder can use the properties of neighboring blocks to determine the breakpoint used to code a to-be-decoded sequence or sequences of a block or a multi-block partition.

An apparatus and method are provided for processing digital imagery. A reference platform device is provided with network and telephone connectivity that enable it to establish a connection with a central server. Additional connectors are provided for attaching digital cameras and video equipment to the reference platform. The user can connect their camera to the reference platform and, by simply pressing a single button, initiate a new connection to the central server and upload the electronic image files. Once uploaded, the user can edit the image files using a standard web browser and have the processed images reduced to paper or compact disk and forwarded to another location for pick up or mailing.

The present invention includes a device, method, and user interface for providing optimized entry of alphanumeric text. In one form, a method for providing selectable characters within a user interface includes determining an operating mode of a communication device and receiving an input associated with a selected input key. The method determines a group of characters associated with the selected key based on the operating mode and displays the group of characters within the user interface. The user interface may display a first character of the group of characters within a first portion of the user interface and the group of characters proximal to the first character within a second portion of the user interface.
