The claimed subject matter provides a system and/or a method that facilitates dynamically providing a question to ask a medical professional during an appointment. An interface can receive a portion of medical data. A counselor component can generate a question based on the portion of medical data, wherein the question is generated to elicit an answer from a medical professional during an appointment. Moreover, the counselor component can dynamically generate a second question directed toward the medical professional based upon at least one of the answer or a value of information (VOI) computation.

A system and related techniques relate to the retrieval of a media object list with associated properties from a media device such as a digital video camcorder, audio player or other source or device. According to embodiments the retrieved list or set of media objects and their attributes or properties, for example a song list along with song length, codec, artist and other information may be retrieved from the source device, along with a representative sample of the media or content of each object. So the title which identifies a song may be accompanied by a short sound clip of a representative sample of that song, or a title identifying a digital video movie may be accompanied by a short video clip of an introductory portion of that movie. According to the invention in one regard, that representative sample may be generated in the source device and encapsulated into the set of properties which are passed with the object identifier to an initiator device, such as a user's computer accessing a video camera for downloading. A media object which is stored in monolithic binary format with no predetermined internal samples may nevertheless be accessed and sampled to allow a user to view or listen to representative content, through encapsulation of a sample in the properties passed via an underlying media transport protocol.

The claimed subject matter provides a system and/or a method that facilitates identifying a medical facility for an emergency medical situation. An interface can receive a portion of data related to an emergency medical incident and a corresponding location. A match component can evaluate the portion of data to select a medical facility in which to transport a patient involved in the emergency medical incident, wherein the medical facility can be ascertained based on a distance between the location of the emergency medical incident and a location for the selected medical facility and traffic related to a route there between.

A method and apparatus is described for recording or auditing events. In one example, a device is connected to a first host device and may receive data from the first host device. The first host device may further be connected in a network of devices. The device may be disconnected from the first host device and may be connected to a second host device, the second host device not being fully connected to the network. The device may store data and may further contain a log file in memory for tracking or auditing events that occur associated with the data and/or associated with the second host device. The log file may be transferred to the first host device after the device is re-connected with the first host device.

A method and system are provided for facilitating communication between a computing device and a network scanner upon discovery of the network scanner. The system includes a driver having an operating system communication layer and a scanning profile communication layer, the scanning profile communication layer implementing a zero configuration device network architecture. The driver includes a translation mechanism for translating information between a scanning communication protocol of the scanning profile communication layer and an operating system communication mode of the operating system communication layer. The driver may further include a scanning command module for transferring scanning commands from the driver to the network scanning device and a data handler for opening a communication channel between the driver and the scanner and transmitting scan data over the communication channel.

The Universal Plug and Play architecture contemplates devices and control points that can automatically integrate themselves into a network and provide functionality to a user. Extensions are provided that allow an information presentation appliance to identify categories of information the user wishes that appliance to display. The appliance, acting as a device, can advertise functionality that only allows for the display of information that matches the categories selected by the user. Alternatively, the appliance can act as a control point and request information from information storage devices that matches the categories selected by the user. Using either alternative, the user is allowed to tune, at the appliance, the information that the appliance presents.

Multimedia and multi-content capture device and integration model. A capture device takes raw sensor data and processes it using a set of algorithms stored on the capture device. A processing device communicates with the capture device to reprocess the raw sensor data using the set of algorithms stored on the capture device. The quality of the output from the capture device and the processing device may differ due to the processing capabilities of each device.

A computer-implemented method and system are provided for supporting hardware devices that are connected to the computer via a network. The existence of any hardware device connected on the network is detected in the method. Information descriptive of the connected device is then obtained, either from the device or from the user. Based upon the obtained information, a logical representation of the connected device is created. The driver for the detected device is then located and installed. From this point on, the network-connected hardware device appears to the computer in the same manner as a locally connected hardware device.

A system and method for preparing and storing pre-determined queries on devices with large re-writable media. This invention addresses the problem of processing of data query request on devices that may not have the processing power to return query results in a timely manner. A requesting device queries a target device for information, such as information relating to the content stored on the target device. If the target device is not capable of providing a timely query result, the target device does not respond to the query request, but instead stores the query. The next time the target device connects to a device with a high-powered processor, such as a personal computer, the processor device generates a query result and stores the query result on the target device. The next time the target device connects to the requesting device, the query result will be provided to the requesting device.

Generation of an index database that is customized for a specific responder device using device parameters of the responder device is provided. The index database is generated on a device other than the responder device. In accordance with one method, an indication of a selection of objects is received. Device parameters of the responder device are also accessed. An index database is generated for the selection of objects using the device parameters of the responder device. The index database may then be transferred to the responder device.
