20090307726 | Systems and methods for recommending age-range appropriate episodes of program content - Electronic program guide (EPG) data is parsed to identify and categorize age-range appropriate programming content and organize the identified content into kids recommended categories of programming content. In this implementation, information corresponding to the EPG data is organized into at least one custom category based on age specific criteria to generate a kids-recommended program guide (KRPG). The information organized in the category(s) includes corresponding program data descriptions. The program data descriptions are linked to source content data feeds and/or corresponding information in the EPG. The KRPG is in a data format for distribution to any number of client devices to facilitate selection of age-range appropriate program data. | 12-10-2009 |

20100142716 | NETWORK AUDIO PROCESSOR - An audio circuit and associated method for enhanced intelligibility of audio content includes a first means for receiving reproduced audio content, a microphone for providing a microphone output signal in accordance with ambient noise, a second means for enabling the microphone output signal when the reproduced audio content is off, and disabling the microphone output signal when the reproduced audio content is on, and a signal processor, in communication with the first and second means. The signal processor applies a transfer function to the reproduced audio content for increasing gain to the reproduced audio content as a function of increasing amplitude of the microphone output signal, and decreasing gain to the reproduced audio content signal as a function of decreasing amplitude of the microphone output signal, and applies an equalization curve to the audio content to boost frequencies in a range that enhances consonant perception thus increasing speech intelligibility. | 06-10-2010 |

20150143309 | COMPUTER IMPLEMENTED SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR GENERATING A LAYOUT OF A CELL DEFINING A CIRCUIT COMPONENT - A computer implemented system and method is provided for generating a layout of the cell defining a circuit component, the layout providing a layout pattern for a target process technology. The method comprises obtaining an archetype layout providing a valid layout pattern for the cell having regard to design rules of the target process technology, and receiving an input data file providing a process technology independent schematic of the circuit component for which the cell is to be generated. A schematic sizing operation is then performed on the input data file, having regard to both schematic constraints applicable to the target process technology and layout constraints derived from the archetype layout, in order to generate an output data file providing a process technology dependent schematic of the circuit component. A cell generation operation is then performed using the output data file and layout data determined from the archetype layout in order to generate the layout of the cell. Such an approach enables both the schematic and layout to be co-optimised during generation of the layout of the cell. | 05-21-2015 |

20130308817 | MANAGEMENT OF DIGITAL INFORMATION USING AN INDIVIDUAL DIGITAL WATERMARK - The present invention provides, in at least one embodiment, a system and method for management of digital information using an individual digital watermark. The system facilitates and controls engagements between an individual and other individuals or businesses. The system uses processing software to register an individual. The system stores an individual's profile and preference information in a database of digital information. When the individual makes contact with another entity (e.g., business or another individual) that he would like to connect with or share information with from his database, the individual allows his device to be scanned using a scanner (e.g., microphone or camera) such that the other entity can extract the embedded individual digital watermark and unlock access to a category of the individual's database of preselected digital information. | 11-21-2013 |
