Abstract: An arrangement is provided where all applications in an interactive media environment run on a single application thread in a media player. Event queues are utilized to schedule the application thread's processing of workitems corresponding to events that occur in the environment. Workitems include methods to be invoked when the workitem is processed and arguments for the method. Workitems further include a begin time and an end time and are ordered in the event queue first by begin time followed by the order in which they were inserted into the queue. The application thread marks workitems whose begin times corresponds to the current or previous time and then processes marked workitems from the queue in order. Such processing is committed so that once the application thread begins processing of a workitem it does not stop. Workitems are dropped from the event queue if their end times have been passed.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is provided for performing a transaction involving a mobile communication device. The method includes receiving at a terminal a transaction request from the mobile communication device over a short-range communication link. An authorization request is sent to an authorizing agent requesting approval to complete the transaction in response to receipt of the transaction request. Approval to complete the transaction is received if the mobile communication device has been determined to be located within a predetermined distance of the terminal. The transaction with the mobile communication device is only completed after receiving the approval.

Abstract: In an interactive media environment, a model is provided where applications, each comprising zero or more script components and zero or more markup components, are themselves handled as visual elements having a Z order. A resource-efficient rendering order is provided where the application that has focus in an interactive media environment (by virtue of its receipt of user events) is rendered first. The remaining applications are rendered in top down order, i.e., in reverse Z order. Rendering is performed by drawing into one or more graphics buffers associated with respective applications. Frames for applications are composited from the graphics buffers bottoms up, in Z order, to provide the display with the correct appearance.

Abstract: Applications are managed in an interactive media environment by the creation of a logical model for the lifetime of an application. The model is applicable to concurrently and/or consecutively running applications and governs the creation of applications, manipulation of applications by other applications, resource consumption, visibility of an application to a user, and application shutdown in the interactive media environment using the construct of application “state.” A set of Booleans flags is utilized and unique combinations of elements in the Boolean flag set define a plurality of application states

Abstract: Playing an interactive multimedia presentation involves pre-rendering a media object at certain times based on a frame rate of the interactive content, a frame rate of the video content (which may include video, audio, data, or any combination thereof), and a play speed of the presentation. Certain actions taken include calculating a current elapsed play time representing an amount of the presentation's play duration that has passed. Based on the calculated time, a current interactive content presentation time is ascertained from an interactive content timeline. The interactive content timeline represents times at which the media object is presentable. A subsequent interactive content presentation time is selected from the interactive content timeline. The presentation state of the media object is predicted for the subsequent interactive content presentation time. The media object is pre-rendered within a time offset period before the subsequent interactive content presentation time occurs.

Abstract: In an interactive media environment, input events are distributed to a plurality of applications where each application includes zero or more script components and zero or more markup files and has a Z order which corresponds to the position of the applications' visual elements on a display. An input event processing order is utilized where the application that has focus in an interactive media environment (by virtue of its receipt of user events) is provided with the first opportunity to consume the input event. If the focused application does not consume the input event, it is then delivered to the remaining applications in top down, inverse Z order. Each application is enabled with the ability to consume an input event, pass it on to lower Z ordered applications, hide it from lower Z ordered applications, or otherwise handle it. Input event processing stops when an application consumes the input event.

Abstract translation: 在交互式媒体环境中，输入事件被分发到多个应用程序，其中每个应用程序包括零个或多个脚本组件和零个或多个标记文件，并且具有对应于应用程序在显示器上的视觉元素的位置的Z次序。 使用输入事件处理顺序，其中在交互式媒体环境（通过其接收用户事件）中具有焦点的应用被提供有消费输入事件的第一个机会。 如果聚焦的应用程序不消耗输入事件，那么它将以自上而下的逆Z顺序传递给其余的应用程序。 每个应用程序都能够使用输入事件，将其传递给较低的Z订单应用程序，将其从较低的Z订单应用程序隐藏，或以其他方式处理。 当应用程序消耗输入事件时，输入事件处理停止。
