20110066723GENERATING STATISTICS OF POPULAR CONTENT - Client terminals report an easy-to-calculate identifier such as the Internet URL or a cryptographic hash of the content to a server. The server collects and counts the reported identifiers so as to obtain preliminary statistics. By aggregating these reported identifiers into the preliminary statistics, identifiers are revealed that are likely popular content. The server selects one or more identifiers from the preliminary statistics and makes these available to at least a subset of clients. The clients that obtain these one or more identifiers then access content and compute the easy-to-calculate identifiers as usual. If the computed identifier matches one of the identifiers obtained from the server, the client will additionally extract a watermarked identifier or compute a digital fingerprint of the content in question and report this to the server. The server then uses the received identifier or fingerprint to create final statistics by aggregating the preliminary statistics.03-17-2011

20080263360Generating and matching hashes of multimedia content - Hashes are short summaries or signatures of data files which can be used to identify the file. Hashing multimedia content (audio, video, images) is difficult because the hash of original content and processed (e.g. compressed) content may differ significantly. The disclosed method generates robust hashes for multimedia content, for example, audio clips. The audio clip is divided (10-23-2008
20090276635CONTROLLING DISTRIBUTION AND USE OF DIGITAL WORKS - In order to efficiently prevent the save-and-restore attack on usage rights associated with digital work, these usage rights are protected by a hidden channel. In order to make it a difficult or expensive to manipulate the hidden channel, a device is proposed comprising: writing means (11-05-2009
20090324199GENERATING FINGERPRINTS OF VIDEO SIGNALS - The present invention provides novel techniques for generating more robust fingerprints (12-31-2009
20100058065EXTRACTING AUXILIARY DATA FROM A HOST SIGNAL - The invention relates to extracting and embedding auxiliary data from and to a host signal. In an embodiment, the auxiliary data relates to remotely control of an application or a device, such as an interactive toy. Auxiliary data are extracted from a host signal, by periodically (03-04-2010
20100225826METHOD OF LOCATING A RECEIVER THAT REDISTRIBUTES CONTENT - A method of identifying from a plurality of receivers a receiver which causes a redistribution of content, the method comprising making available a watermarked version of the content to only a subset of the plurality of receivers, determining if the watermarked version is subsequently being distributed, and eliminating one or more receivers from the plurality based on the determination, until the subset comprises only the receiver which causes the redistribution, thereby identifying this receiver. Preferably a binary search algorithm is used. Also a system for distributing content to a plurality of receivers, configured to execute the method.09-09-2010

20080298898Offshore Platform with Movable Cantilever Extending Beyond the Deck - This invention relates to an offshore system comprising a rig having a deck (12-04-2008
20090220306Offshore System - This invention relates to an offshore system, comprising a drilling vessel, e.g. a semi-submersible drilling vessel comprising a deck on which a drilling tower for performing drilling operations is mounted. The vessel is furthermore provided with a support for a tiltable J-lay tower for laying a pipeline, said support being arranged next to the drilling tower, and the offshore system further includes a J-lay tower which is or can be mounted on said support.09-03-2009
