| 20090126020 | ENGINE FOR RULE BASED CONTENT FILTERING - An engine for editing contents of data containers has a set of processors which hosts a set of controllers, each controller coupled to a respective set of transcoders. A memory device stores an array of Boolean variables characterizing the contents of a container, and an array of encoded rules for determining needed content editing, if any. The Boolean variables are determined according to content descriptors and respective criteria. A graphical user interface enables a user to provide the descriptors, the criteria, and the encoded rules. Each transcoder applies the encoded rules to specific containers. A transcoder also performs container adaptation functions which may modify contents of a container to be compatible with a respective receiver. The engine receives containers from clients through a network and directs each container to a respective controller. | 05-14-2009 |
