摘要： The present invention relates to methods for dynamically displaying images on a display window of a digital display device such as a digital picture frame. These methods include the steps of: processing the source image into a canvas image having canvas pixels as a function of the source image characteristics; upon the canvas image meeting one or more conditions for the panning of an image, selecting a panning velocity for the canvas image; defining a viewing window with respect to the canvas image wherein said viewing window having a viewing image, said viewing image is to have a plurality of viewing pixels; calculating the viewing pixels for said viewing image; displaying said viewing image for said viewing window on said display window; redefining said viewing window with respect to the canvas image as a function of said panning velocity; and repeating the calculating and displaying steps for said viewing window. These methods allow for the dynamic display of images with special effects on a digital display device as a function of the properties of the image (e.g. a panoramic image). They also provide for the smooth panning of digital images at velocities that are accurate up to fractional pixels per unit time.

摘要： A computing system receives a compressed archive file that includes a one or more new executable software modules, and a installation file specifying instructions for installing such modules on the computing system. The modules and the installation file are extracted from the compressed archive file, and the modules installed in accordance with the instructions. Instances of executing software modules that correspond to the installed modules are notified about their impending termination. The instances are then terminated before launching corresponding instances of the installed modules.

摘要： A method and apparatus is provided for fast route table updates. A route table entry is identified, and a subsequent route table entry is located using the identified route table entry. All subsequent route table entries are identified using the previous route table entry until all route table entries associated with a predetermined characteristic are identified. The identified entries may be purged or transferred from one route table to another. The predetermined characteristic may be that the route table entries where discovered by a common routing protocol. Route table entries associated with a common routing protocol that is inoperative for a predetermined period are purged.

摘要： A computing environment includes a number of nodes, one of which is a primary node that controls the operation of the computing environment and another of which is a backup node that is capable of controlling operation of the computing environment. The primary node includes a hardware management module (HMM) that controls hardware components in the computing environment. The HMM also detects and reports events relating to the hardware components. The primary node further includes a software management module (SMM) that controls instances of software components of the computing environment, and detects and reports events related to the same. A node management module (NMM) in the primary node elects the node as the primary from among the number of nodes. The NMM receives the reports of events from the HMM and SMM, and selectively transfers operational control of the computing environment to a backup node in response to the reports. A configuration management module (CMM) transfers a configuration of the computing environment to the backup node. A replication library is used in transferring a state of each of the instances of software components to the backup node.

摘要： A method and system is provided in which MAN traffic is segregated at a customer and a provider domain level. A switch at the edge of the MAN encapsulates a data packet in a new header, which is used to specify the customer domain tags. The data packet is encapsulated further in another new header, which is used to specify new VMAN tags. The nested encapsulation is repeated as necessary until the data packet is forwarded to a remote switch at the edge of the MAN in accordance with the VMAN configuration or the source and destination address in the original data packet. The remote switch strips the VMAN tags from the data packet, and forwards the stripped data packet to the receiving customer domain as specified in the customer domain tag.
