| 20090240778 | METHOD FOR TRANSFERRING DATA FROM A SENSOR OVER A COMPUTER NETWORK, CORRESPONDING DEVICE, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT THEREFORE - The invention concerns a method for transferring data from a sensor over a computer network, wherein the method comprises the steps of receiving from the sensor a signal representing a physical quantity, encoding the signal, converting the signal into a message, and transmitting the message over the computer network, wherein the conversion of the signal into the message comprises the step of generating the message by combining a first message header with a message body, wherein the first message header comprises the encoded signal and the message body comprises application data. The invention further concerns a device and computer program product therefore. | 09-24-2009 |

| 20090138615 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AN IMPROVED HIGH AVAILABILITY COMPONENT IMPLEMENTATION - The invention relates to a computer system and method for high availability processing through a session on a transport connection, for use in a cluster with at least two nodes. The system comprises a protocol component; a cluster with at least two nodes, said cluster being arranged for running the protocol component; and a server arranged for maintaining a protocol session on a transport connection with a node of the cluster. The cluster is arranged for maintaining on each of said at least two nodes one instance of the protocol component, so that at least two instances are active; the server is arranged for simultaneously maintaining a protocol session with each instance. | 05-28-2009 |

| 20090290791 | AUTOMATIC TRACKING OF PEOPLE AND BODIES IN VIDEO - A facial detection module detects faces in any frame in a video by applying at least two rectangles between the eyes of a face and other regions and calculating a difference in intensity between those regions. The intensities are used to generate face detections. A tracking module predicts the location of faces in frames across time and compares the predicted location to the face detections. The face detection that is closest to the predicted location is selected, provided that it exceeds a threshold of overlap with the predicted location. A tracking module determines shot boundaries by comparing the similarities between frames. A clustering module groups the face tracks in the shots, as demarcated by the shot boundaries, for individuals within the video. A body detection module attaches a body outline to each of the face tracks to increase the clickable area for the individuals. | 11-26-2009 |

| 20120110071 | INFERRING USER PROFILE ATTRIBUTES FROM SOCIAL INFORMATION - User profile information for a user of a social networking system is inferred based on information about user profile of the user's connections in the social networking system. The inferred user profile attributes may include age, gender, education, affiliations, location, and the like. To infer a value of a user profile attribute, the system may determine an aggregate value based on the attributes of the user's connections. A confidence score may also be associated with the inferred attribute value. The set of connections analyzed to infer a user profile attribute may depend on the attribute, the types of connections, and the interactions between the user and the connections. The inferred attribute values may be used to update the user's profile and to determine information relevant to the user to be presented to the user (e.g., targeting advertisements to the user based on the user's inferred attributes). | 05-03-2012 |
