20100030808MULTIMEDIA ARCHITECTURE FOR AUDIO AND VISUAL CONTENT - A multimedia architecture for audio and video content. The architecture includes virtual assets that model, or are associated with, a media presentation and one or more real assets that model, or are associated with, digitally encoded embodiments of the media presentation. The architecture enables automatic selection of content in a format that is optimal for a particular device, shielding a user from the complexities of multiple digital formats.02-04-2010
20100104279METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CONFIGURING A CONNECTION-ORIENTED PACKET NETWORK OVER A WAVELENGTH DIVISION MULTIPLEXED OPTICAL NETWORK - A network planning tool and method for configuring a connection-oriented packet network over a WDM optical network without an optical control layer, such as a SONET/SDH layer. The optical network includes a plurality of optical fibers interconnected through nodes and the connection-oriented packet network, such an Ethernet network, MPLS network, or pseudowire network, includes two or more terminal devices. The method and tool function by building an association between the components of the physical layer, such as the optical fiber, and their geographic location or path. The connection-oriented packet network is configured by building multi-link trunks (MLTs) between terminal devices, where the MLTs are built by aggregating lightpaths that traverse distinctive geographic paths. The MLTs are planned and configured through aggregating lightpaths that traverse incongruent sets of photonic elements. A predetermined target for resiliency to physical failure events may determine the degree of congruence allowed between the sets of photonic elements associated with lightpaths in the same MLT.04-29-2010
20100153990CONTENT OVERLAYS IN ON-DEMAND STREAMING APPLICATIONS - A personalized content overlay is generated and sent for display to a subscriber. The content overlay may be generated in response to a request by the subscriber, such as a request to watch a program. The content overlay can include personalized information tailored to the subscriber based on subscriber information. The content overlay can also include information obtained from a third party, such as an advertiser, that has a preexisting relationship with the subscriber. The content overlay can include one or more triggers that, when activated by the subscriber, enable interactivity between the subscriber and a third party.06-17-2010

20110187527PORTABLE TRACKING/LOCATING SYSTEM, METHOD, AND APPLICATION - A tracking system including a tracking device and a tracked device. The tracking device includes a smart phone type device with a radio transceiver dongle connected to it through a USB connection. Communications from the traced device to the tracking device (for example, the transceiver in the dongle) take the following form: RF communications that do not travel over a pre-existing communication network (for example, a pre-existing internet network, a pre-existing cell phone network) and that use Multi-Use Radio Service (MURS), xbee (zigBee), FSK, OSK, ISM Band standards that provide two-way radio frequency spectrum, or any frequency available thru Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) 47 Code of Federal Regulations (“C.F.R.”) §15, or any available frequency that is sanctioned for long distance use (e.g., 0.5 miles or more, 300 meters or more) by the appropriate governing body, rather than Bluetooth radio communications, or any other type of RF communications that can only transmit, as a practical matter under normal operating conditions, less than 300 feet.08-04-2011

20100217977SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF SECURITY FOR AN OBJECT BASED STORAGE DEVICE - The disclosure is related to systems and methods of security for a data storage device and in particular embodiments, an object based data storage device. In a particular embodiment, a system comprises an object based data storage device adapted to store objects received from a host The object based data storage device may be adapted to encrypt and decrypt objects without allowing access to an encryption key or decryption key from external to the object based data storage device.08-26-2010
20100223440Single Command Payload Transfers Block of Security Functions to a Storage Device - A storage device has a storage medium and a processor. The processor is disposed within the storage device and is adapted to receive multiple commands as a command block over an interface. The processor is adapted to extract each of the multiple commands from the single block for execution on the storage device.09-02-2010
