| 20090119728 | TUNING RESOLVER - A method and system for supporting media services on devices lacking capabilities to execute reverse transmission communicates necessary to request and/or locate the services. The method and system may be suitable for use with switched broadcast television (SBT) system having unidirectional digital cable products (UDCPs) which are unable to execute reverse transmission communicates necessary to support SBT. | 05-07-2009 |
| 20100100449 | METHOD AND SYSTEM OF ADVERTISING WITHOUT ADDING TAGS TO CONTENT STREAMS - A method and system of advertising that facilitates an automated advertisement process where a user, at any point during playback, simply makes a request to view an advertisement and an advertisement related to the current point of playback is automatically provided. The advertisement can be related to a scene showing proximate in time to the request so that the user can specify what type of advertisement is provided and when it is provided. | 04-22-2010 |
| 20100104257 | AUTOMATED RUN-TIME ADJUSTMENT - A method and system for automated run-time adjustment that includes an ability to start or end a scheduled recording at an earlier or later period of time. The adjustment may allow a program to be recorded in its entirety regardless of whether the program is starting late or running long. The recording period adjustments performed in accordance with the contemplated run-time adjustment may be made with reliance on data transmitted with the program in order to optionally insure the adjustment are made with respect to the actual content and not some pre-determined or arbitrary recording extension inputted by a user. | 04-29-2010 |
| 20110012990 | ADAPTIVE HDMI FORMATTING SYSTEM FOR 3D VIDEO TRANSMISSION - A system configured to support video formatting without a priori knowledge of video formatting requirements of a display device. The system relies on video information transmitted from the display device to a source device to facilitate determining the video formatting requirements of the display device. The system can be used within any television network, gaming network, and content sourcing network where it may be advantageous to deploy a source device that can support formatting requirements for a plurality of different display types. | 01-20-2011 |
| 20110157303 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR GENERATION OF CAPTIONS OVER STEROSCOPIC 3D IMAGES - A method and system is disclosed for generating a caption relative to a three-dimensional (3D) image. The caption may be generated such that it appears relative to a screen plane of an output device used to render the 3D image. The caption may be added to left and right viewpoint images included within images used by the output device to render the 3D image as a function of the positioning of the caption relative to the screen plane. | 06-30-2011 |

| 20080225705 | Monitoring, Controlling, And Preventing Traffic Congestion Between Processors - A system for monitoring congestion at processors includes queues and a congestion monitor. The queues receive packets, and each queue is associated with a processor. For each queue, the congestion monitor establishes whether a time-averaged occupancy of a queue exceeds a time-averaged occupancy threshold. The congestion monitor provides a notification if the time-averaged occupancy exceeds the time-averaged occupancy threshold. | 09-18-2008 |
| 20110243150 | Facilitating Communication Of Routing Information - In certain embodiments, facilitating communication of routing information includes receiving, at a shim, incoming messages communicating routing information from a first protocol point of one or more protocol points operating according to a routing protocol. The shim belongs to an internal region separate from an external region, and a transport layer is disposed between the shim and the protocol points. The incoming messages are processed and sent to siblings that belong to the internal region. Each sibling implements a state machine for the routing protocol. Outgoing messages are received from a first sibling. The outgoing messages are processed and sent to a second protocol point of the one or more protocol points. | 10-06-2011 |
| 20110246814 | Facilitating Persistence Of Routing States - In certain embodiments, replicating data elements includes calculating a key value for a data element. The key value is calculated from at least a part of content of the first data element. K computing elements are automatically selected from X computing element nodes according to the key value and a mapping schema. K is a greater than 2 and less than X. The computing element nodes each include computer-readable memory embodied within one or more routers. K replications of the data element are automatically written to the computer-readable memory of the K computing element nodes. | 10-06-2011 |
