20110055266 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR HIERARCHICAL IMAGE PROCESSING - Video processing in general and image processing in particular is a very complex process. This is more so when the analysis is required to extract information from the images for providing of the same directly or indirectly to the users. This additional complexity is due to the direct competition with users who are used to analyzing of the images both syntactically and semantically. One of the ways to contain the complexity of image analysis is to exploit the domain semantics during image processing. A system and method to help in semantics based image processing involves the identification of one or more domain relevant semantic hierarchies and using of the same during image processing. | 03-03-2011 |
20110010590 | ENTERPRISE BLACK BOX SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DATA CENTERS - Enterprises are fast moving towards restructuring their IT infrastructure by exploiting the emerging models of data centers. In one extreme, the whole of application, storage, and network needs of an enterprise are to be managed by third party data centers. While the use of third party data centers is an attractive proposition for enterprises, it can potentially put their intellectual property in the form of applications and data assets under threat. There is a need for a system that is a part of a data center but owned by an enterprise that provides a single point of entry and exit for interacting and communicating with the data center and the enterprise relies on this system to obtain an insight into the functioning and behavior of the data center. | 01-13-2011 |
20110010225 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REVENUE UNLEAKING - Revenue leakage is one of the major concerns of telecom operators worldwide. There are several reasons for revenue leakage including frauds, data loss, poor utilization of network infrastructure, and churn. With the growth in subscriber base and increased competition in the market space, the lack of control on revenue leak could potentially affect the profit margins drastically. The operators are ever looking for solutions that could limit the various aspects of the revenue leakage. A system and method for addressing revenue leakage due to data loss in general and incomplete/partial data in particular needs to handle the issues related to the obtaining of additional information so that incomplete/partial data records lead to additional billing opportunity for the operators. | 01-13-2011 |
20100167709 | System and Method for Supporting Peer Interactions - Peer to peer interactions are a popular way of social networking. Such peer to peer interactions play an important role in (a) obtaining relevant and latest information; (b) obtaining relevant experiential information; (c) obtaining of relevant opinions on, say, products; (d) collaborative problem solving, and so on. Consider a scenario of classified ads: a user visiting a portal through a mobile phone to decide on buying of a product can be well assisted by facilitating peer to peer interactions. In many situations, it is required to make the right selection of peers in order to be able to obtain the right information, and furthermore, voice is a preferred mode of interaction if mobile phones are used in peer to peer interactions. Also, in peer to peer interactions, anonymity is important in order to protect the privacy of the peers. A system and method for supporting peer interactions, especially in a mobile scenario involving classified ads, need to address the issues related to (a) selecting and displaying of the right information; (b) selecting of right peers; and (c) facilitating anonymous peer interactions. | 07-01-2010 |
20100122297 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR USER LIKES MODELING - Modeling user likes and dislikes is an important aspect of target marketing. Typically, a user performs several activities related to a particular domain, and the outcomes of these activities indicate the extent of liking/disliking that resulted on account of these activities. Further, many of these activities are performed on a routine basis. The problem of user likes modeling is to analyze these various activities performed by the user and the solution is to arrive at a likes/dislikes model of the user. Such a likes/dislikes model helps in, for example, ad targeting in the context of TV viewing and cross-selling in the case of mobile services. | 05-13-2010 |
20100073496 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR REMOTE USAGE MODELING - Remote control units are used to interact with a variety of devices. Modeling of the usage of a remote control unit while interacting with a device helps in (a) redesigning the remote for better usability; (b) dynamic adapting of the remote to provide improved interactions; and (c) characterizing the usage behaviors. In particular, it is very popular to use remote control units to interact with TVs and PVR devices. A system and method for the modeling of a remote usage involves the use of both pre-defined models and discovered models. Specifically, a pattern of usage of a remote control unit is abstracted to be one of either a pre-defined model or a discovered model. The model discovery involves the process of generalization based on a set of particular remote control unit usage patterns. The labels associated with the models help in characterizing the remote control unit usage patterns. | 03-25-2010 |
20100057909 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR EFFICIENT DELIVERY IN A MULTI-SOURCE, MULTI DESTINATION NETWORK - Real-time delivery of multimedia content puts extreme demand on both computational and network resources. Many a times, the requirement is to handle multiple such delivery requirements and as a consequence, the overall delivery efficiency gets affected. Another dimension of complexity is that (a) the multimedia content to be delivered may not always be highly reliable, and (b) the network may also be not highly reliable. In such a situation, it becomes even more difficult to satisfy the quality of service requirements. When content to be delivered to multiple destinations is available at multiple sources, there is an opportunity to overcome the above mentioned complexity. The system and method for efficient delivery in a multi-source multi-destination network involves pulling of data from the multiple sources by measuring quality of service and reliability parameters, and efficiently loading the systems and the network in a cooperative manner. | 03-04-2010 |
20090292644 | System and method maximizing video license utilization using billboard services - Key to overall video license utilization lies in a cooperative sharing of licenses between the different branch operators of the licenses before the expiry of the licenses. A branch operator has a region of operation and stimulating the demand for licenses that are about to expire across multiple regions increases the overall license utilization. Billboard service provides subscribers with information and facility to preview and select movies for viewing online and it provides an opportunity for branch operators and central operator to maximize the utilization of available licenses. Central billboard provides a platform for branch operators to submit and trade their surplus licenses while a local billboard that is part of a branch operator infrastructure helps create demand for such surplus licenses. Central billboard supports both regulated and unregulated pricing and trading thereby enhancing the chances of trading of licenses that are about to expire. | 11-26-2009 |
