| 20090164559 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR THE DETERMINATION AND ASSIGNMENT OF A UNIQUE LOCAL CHANNEL IDENTIFIER (ULCI) TO ENABLE THE MULTI-SITE AND MULTI-USER SHARING OF CONTENT - A system and method for the determination and assignment of a unique local channel identifier (ULCI) to enable the multi-site and multi-user sharing of content are described. Various embodiments allow sending by a primary user to a server an indication of one or more users to be invited to use a personal channel. The server determines a unique local channel identifier (ULCI) for the personal channel, where the ULCI represents a common open channel for the primary user and the one or more invited users. The primary user and the one or more invited users are allowed access to the personal channel via the ULCI. Other embodiments are described and claimed. | 06-25-2009 |
| 20090164693 | Accelerating input/output (IO) throughput on solid-state memory-based mass storage device - In one embodiment, a portable mass storage device may include a bus hub having a first port to couple to a bus and other ports to connect to multiple multi-channel memory controllers, where each memory controller is coupled to multiple non-volatile storage arrays, and the memory controllers can independently service the arrays to enable overlapping data transfer operations. Other embodiments are described and claimed. | 06-25-2009 |
| 20100023499 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR A CONTENT FINGERPRINT FILTER - A system and method for a content fingerprint filter. Various embodiments include receiving content and a preference from a user. The content is encoded without any available identifying information. A technical analysis of the encoded content is performed for one or more technical attributes. The available identifying information is paired with the one or more technical attributes to form a content fingerprint, where the content fingerprint identifies the content. The content fingerprint is combined with the preference to create a content fingerprint filter. The content fingerprint filter is used to filter pieces of available content, where each piece of available content has an associated content fingerprint. Other embodiments are described and claimed. | 01-28-2010 |
| 20100154014 | NETWORKED-ENABLED MASS STORAGE DONGLE WITH NETWORKED MEDIA CONTENT AGGREGATION - Embodiments of a network-enabled mass storage dongle with networked media content aggregation are discussed. Embodiments provide for a dongle in a consumption mode is inserted into one or more source devices, where the one or more source devices are part of a network and store content to be aggregated for accessing on equipment. In embodiments the equipment has no intrinsic networking capabilities. The dongle allows a user to select one or more directory structures on each of the one or more source devices to be included in the aggregated content. The dongle then creates a file share for each of the selected directory structures. The dongle in an aggregation mode is inserted into the equipment and automatically connects to the network. The dongle aggregates content in the created file shares to present the aggregated content as a single mass storage device to the equipment. Other embodiments are described and claimed. | 06-17-2010 |
