Filed:

Dec 15, 2008

Appl. No.:

12/334969

Inventors:

Ming Chieh Lee - Bellevue WA, US
Mu Han - Redmond WA, US
Tim Moore - Bellevue WA, US

Assignee:

Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA

International Classification:

G06F 13/00

US Classification:

709205, 709224, 709231

Abstract:

Video conference rate matching may be provided. A video conference server may receive video source streams from clients on a video conference. The server may analyze each client's capabilities and choose a video stream to send to each client based on those capabilities. For example, a client capable of encoding and decoding a high definition video stream may provide three source video streams—a high definition stream, a medium resolution stream, and a low resolution stream. The server may send only the low resolution stream to a client with a low amount of available bandwidth. The server may send the medium resolution stream to another client with sufficient bandwidth for the high definition stream, but which lacks the ability to decode the high definition stream.

Appl. No.:

09/888838

Inventors:

Vladimir Alves - Irvine CA, US
Ming Lee - Irvine CA, US

International Classification:

H04K001/04

US Classification:

380/037000

Abstract:

A digital signal processing apparatus and method for executing a block cipher routine. A method includes configuring a portion of an array of independently reconfigurable processing elements for performing the block cipher routine. The method further includes executing the block cipher routine on data blocks received at the configured portion of the array of processing elements. The non-configured portion of the array can be shut down to conserve power. An apparatus includes a context memory for storing one or more context instructions for performing the block cipher routine. The apparatus further includes an array of independently reconfigurable processing elements, each of which is responsive to a context instruction for being configured to execute a portion of the block cipher routine.

International Classification:

C07K 100
A61K 6900
G01N 3300

US Classification:

530350

Abstract:

The invention provides methods and compositions which find use, inter alia, for modulating the stabilization of actin filaments. The compositions may comprise one or more polypeptide moieties derived from a novel human diaphanous polypeptide and/or one or more nucleic acid moieties derived from a novel human diaphanous gene or gene transcript. The invention also provides agents which specifically modify the binding of a natural human diaphanous gene or gene product with a natural binding target thereof, isolated human diaphanous hybridization probes and primers capable of specifically hybridizing with the disclosed human diaphanous genes, human diaphanous-specific binding agents such as specific antibodies, and methods of making and using the subject compositions in diagnosis, therapy and in the biopharmaceutical industry.

International Classification:

Abstract:

Various embodiments of the present technology generally relate to encoding techniques. More specifically, some embodiments relate to encoding techniques for screen data. Intra block copy (IntraBC) using motion compensation within a frame (not between frames) is very useful for encoding data captured from screen. Unfortunately, this tool is not included in most of video coding standards, including the base version of HEVC (i.e., H.265). Various embodiments of the present technology utilize encoding techniques to simulate IntraBC with compliant syntax. For example, embodiments divide a high-resolution frame into smaller areas and then encode these areas independently as if these smaller areas were independent frames.
