Method and apparatus for push and pull distribution of multimedia

The present specification discloses a multimedia distribution system and method. The system and method has a producer workstation, a delivery server, a high-bandwidth one-way satellite transmission system, a terrestrial two-way communication system (including use of the Internet), a plurality of satellite affiliate workstations, and a plurality of terrestrial client workstations. The delivery server receives digital information (envelopes and associated media files) from the producer workstations for delivery of the information to the affiliate and client workstations addressed in the envelope. The affiliate and client workstations provide the delivery server with confirmation of delivery of each received envelope and its associated files. In the absence of receipt of confirmation of delivery, the delivery server re-sends the unconfirmed envelope and associated files to the non-confirming affiliate or client workstation by a two-way terrestrial connection or by a manual system, such as a dub-and-ship service. The delivery server has the ability to push content to affiliates, push-pull content to affiliate and clients, to conventionally pull content from the delivery server, and push the content to affiliates and clients by manual delivery services. The disclosed system and method utilize a unique envelope and addressing protocol and a unique broadcast file transfer protocol for distribution to affiliate workstations by one-way satellite broadcast. The disclosed system and method also make significant use of the TCP / IP, IGMP, and Ethernet protocols and information distribution techniques.

Remote control system and remote control method, device for performing remote control operation and control method therefor, device operable by remote control operation and control method therefor, and storage medium

A portable information terminal is placed in proximity with an ID recognition unit of a notebook PC. By reading ID from the portable information terminal, the notebook PC is able to identify a network address of the portable information terminal so as to establish a network connection with the portable information terminal. The notebook PC then sends suitable operation information to the portable information terminal via a network. For example, if presentation is running on the notebook PC, screen information for operating the presentation is transferred to the portable information terminal. Accordingly, by using one device connected to the other device by a wired or wireless network, the operation of the other device can be controlled.

Percutaneous transmyocardial revascularization (PTMR) system

Percutaneous transmyocardial revascularizaton systems are disclosed for creating thin, linear incisions through the endocardium and partially into the myocardium. The systems mitigate the deficiencies of current approaches that position a distal tip channeling mechanism against the endocardial surface. The systems position a catheter body lengthwise along the endocardial surface and incorporate a cutting mechanism movable radially relative to the catheter body to create one or more elongate thin, linear incisions along one or more windows through the catheter body. Flexible support strands are used to urge each window into intimate contact with the endocardial surface. Each cutting element is adapted to protrude radially outward from the catheter body to contact tissue adjacent each window. The cutting mechanism incorporates a mechanical cutting element or an electrode designed to transmit direct current or radiofrequency energy into tissue to simultaneously cut and coagulate tissue. The catheter also can infuse a therapeutic agent directly into the incisions to encourage angiogenesis. The catheter also cuts thin, linear incisions capable of ablating arrhythmia substrates by disrupting electrical propagation through the affected myocardium.

Distributing files from a single server to multiple clients via cyclical multicasting

A method and system are disclosed for reliably distributing file data from a single server to multiple client computers using a cyclical multicast approach. By “cyclical,” it is meant that data is distributed repeatedly onto the network at a certain period. The server transmits metadata asynchronously onto the network via a first communication channel, and file data via a second communication channel. Both data sets are received by one or more client devices operating a data catch module, which listens for metadata and file data from the network via a first and second communication channel. Once the metadata is received, the first channel is disconnected, and the one or more client devices operating the data catch module listen for file data for which the metadata is associated. Any file data not received during one cycle can be received by the client device in a subsequent cycle.

Rail vehicle identification and processing

A solution for further automating the identification and processing of rail vehicles is provided. Each individual rail vehicle in a series of rail vehicles is identified and data is acquired for the rail vehicle. Identification of each rail vehicle can be implemented using a set of electromagnetic beams that are emitted and detected across a set of rails in such a manner as to enable the reliable identification of individual rail vehicles. Data acquisition for the rail vehicles can include evaluation of one or more parts of the rail vehicle, particularly the rail wheels, for the presence of one or more defects. Data on the part(s), such as rail wheels, can be reliably assigned to a corresponding rail vehicle by also accounting for changes in the direction of movement of the rail vehicle in locations such as a classification yard.
