Pointing systems for addressing objects

Systems are arranged to provide a user information which relates to objects of interest. A user may point a hand held device toward an object to address it. The device determines which objects are being addressed by making position and attitude measurements and further a reference and search of a database containing preprogrammed information relating to objects. Information relating to objects determined as objects presently being addressed is thereafter presented at a user interface. Devices of these systems include a point reference, a direction reference, a position determining support, attitude determining support, a computer processor and database, and a user interface. Methods of systems include the steps of addressing an object, determining position and attitude, searching a database, and presenting information to a user.

Method and apparatus for improved determination of range and angle of arrival utilizing a two tone CW radar

An improved system is provided for aiming a shotgun-based or other countermeasure system so as to be able to countermeasure incoming rockets or projectiles. In one embodiment a shotgun aimed and controlled by the subject system projects a pattern of pellets to intercept a rocket-propelled grenade or incoming projectile. The fire control system uses a CW two-tone monopulse radar to derive range and angle of arrival within 150 milliseconds, with range and angle of arrival measurements having approximately twice the accuracy of prior CW two-tone monopulse radars. The improvement derives from using all of the information in the returned radar beams and is the result of the recognition that one can use the Sum and Difference signals to assemble a two-by-two Rank One matrix that permits using singular value decomposition techniques to generate range and angle of arrival matrices in which all available information is used and in which noise is eliminated.

Method and System for Access Control in Distributed Object-Oriented Systems

A method and a system for accessing services provided by network resources in communication networks. Access to service capabilities is controlled at the application level by controlling the access through a gateway wherein an object-oriented service architecture based on abstracted application programming interfaces is implemented. Preferably, the service architecture is defined in OSA / Parlay standards. Access control is carried out by means of a logical entity, the service reference monitor, which is linked to the gateway and configured so that it intercepts all the communications passing between the client applications and the gateway. The service reference monitor captures the object reference to the service capability and assigns to the object reference a lifetime. At the expiration of the lifetime, the service reference monitor destroys the service capability. The probability of a malicious attack is lowered by limiting the time window of the life of access to a service.

Method and system for providing adaptive and proactive interaction management for multiple types of business interactions occurring in a multimedia communications environment

An object-oriented system for managing multiple media types in a communication center environment has a multimedia queuing system, a processor for processing events in the queue, an interaction server for selecting media type or event types, a resource manager for reporting availability of a resource access point, and a data store for storing client information about media types available to the client and historical information about success of past use of those media types. In a preferred application, the system processes and routes incoming events of known media type to access points defined as systems or agents based in part on media channel availability of the access point, and wherein the system selects a media channel or channels for certain events in queue that are not pre-dedicated as specific media type events but are generated outbound or internal proactive contact events. For proactive contact events, the system automatically selects a media channel for each event based on a combination of set preferences and predictions based on historical channel information relating to success channel connections to that client.

System and Method for Tracking, Monitoring and Deriving the Location of Transient Objects by Monitoring the Location of Equipment Used to Move the Objects

System and method combining a Dock Automation (“DA”) system with a Real Time Locating System (“RTLS”) to achieve automated accuracy relating to the location of shipment components. An RTLS system is used to track the position of assets which move shipment components over time. When any action is performed on a shipment component in the DA system, the time of the action and the RTLS device ID of the asset (piece of equipment or person) performing the action would be used in conjunction with the RTLS database, providing the location at which the event took place. Knowing the location of the asset performing an action on a component implies knowing the location of the component being acted upon. At any time, the component should be wherever the last asset interacted with it.

Graphical Application Integration with MPEG Objects

System and methods are provided to cache encoded graphical objects that may be subsequently combined with other encoded video data to form a data stream decodable by a client device according to a format specification. Paint instructions relating to a graphical object are sent from a layout engine to a rendering library. A shim intercepts these instructions and determines whether the graphical object already has been rendered and encoded. If so, a cached copy of the object is transmitted to the client device. If not, the shim transparently passes the instructions to the rendering library, and the object is rendered, encoded, and cached. Hash values are used for efficiency. Methods are disclosed to detect and cache animations, and to cut and splice cached objects into encoded video data.

Trace information in a virtual machine

A virtual machine in an object-oriented system includes an interpreter. In order to provide trace information from a program about specific method calls, a user defines a selection of methods to be traced. As the program runs on the interpreter, it is determined, whether or not the method is included within the selection to be traced. For those methods included within the selection, trace information about the method call is outputted. A method block is associated with each method and is used by the interpreter to invoke the method. For each method within the user-defined selection, a flag is set within the method block associated with the method. The status of this flag is checked when the interpreter invokes a method, in order to determine whether or not the method is included within the selection.
