Methods and apparatus for distributing a first relation amongst a set of orthogonal sub-relations are disclosed. As a method, an orthogonal sub-relation of the set of orthogonal sub-relations is identified and then removed from the first relation. The removed sub-relation is then replaced with an associated reference that points to the removed sub-relation to form a distributed relation. A reduced first relation that is substantially reduced in size as compared to the first relation, such that the distributed relation is formed of the reduced first relation and all the referenced orthogonal sub-relations.

A digital-imaging based system for and method of reading graphical indicia, including code symbols, on objects such as, but not limited to, code symbol menus by the user simply pointing his or her finger at the particular code symbol on the code symbol menu to be read, while digital images of the code symbol menu and the pointing finger are automatically captured, buffered and processed.

An input / output interface receives an access request from a requester. A processor associated with the input / output interface applies a filter operation to select a subset of rules from a master set of rules maintained within an authorization database. Rules can be selected in this manner using filter operations so that all rules in the rule set need not be processed. A rule may include a disregard instruction. The processor further performs at least one rule operation based on the subset of rules to produce an access control decision in the memory system until either a rule operation including a disregard instruction is performed to limit performance of rule operations in the selected set of rules or until all rule operations in the selected set of rules that are applicable to the access control decision are performed.

A reflective electro-optic display (200) has a bar code display area (206) arranged to display a bar code readable by a bar code scanner.

The transliteration scheme developed as the present invention is contingent upon two languages, namely the keyboard language and the target language. While the invention is independent of the actual languages in question, save to the extent that they must be phonetic or pseudo-phonetic and the keyboard language must possess a script, it is nonetheless convenient to cast the invention within the framework of two specific languages. In this regard, English has been chosen as the keyboard language, and Hindi (a language widely spoken in India) has been chosen as the target language. An understanding of the current invention is possible without any knowledge of Hindi by a practitioner skilled in the art.

A system, method and article of manufacture are provided for affording synchronization in an automated scripting framework. First, script data is received utilizing a language-driven interface. Then, reports having user readable sentences are created based on the received script data. The received script data is then translated into automation code. Finally, automated testing is provided utilizing the automation code.

In response to a user request, an Identity System generates an Output XML containing raw identity information organized in accordance with a set of XML templates. The Identity System dynamically determines the desired response type and prepares the response from the Output XML. One response type is server-side processing-the Identity System combines the Output XML with XSL stylesheets to generate a HTML response. An alternative response type is client-side processing-the Identity System supplies the user with the Output XML. In further client-side embodiments, the Identity System provides XSL stylesheet references along with the Output XML. Additional embodiments provide for the Identity System to perform customized post-processing on the Output XML.

A method and system for automatic incoming call management uses function test results to build call signatures that are stored for later use in incoming call analysis. The function test results are used to compute a suspect score and confidence level associated with each incoming call, and are also used for making incoming call management decisions. A call treatment is selected based on the function test results and / or the computed suspect score and confidence level.

A universal plug and play (UPnP) device makes itself known through a set of processes—discovery, description, control, eventing, and presentation. Following discovery of a UPnP device, an entity can learn more about the device and its capabilities by retrieving the device's description. The description includes vendor-specific manufacturer information like the model name and number, serial number, manufacturer name, URLs to vendor-specific Web sites, etc. The description also includes a list of any embedded devices or services, as well as URLs for control, eventing, and presentation. The description is written by a vendor, and is usually based on a device template produced by a UPnP forum working committee. The template is derived from a template language that is used to define elements to describe the device and any services supported by the device. The template language is written using an XML-based syntax that organizes and structures the elements.

A reflective electro-optic display (200) has a bar code display area (206) arranged to display a bar code readable by a bar code scanner.

Methods and systems consistent with the present invention provide an improved software development tool that generates code corresponding to a distributed computing component that contains methods of a plurality of types and that displays a graphical representation of the code with a separately delineated display area for each type. The improved software development tool also compiles, deploys, and debugs the distributed computing component with a client software component using methods and systems consistent with the present invention.

A method and a system for transformation-based program generation using two separate specifications as input: An implementation neutral specification of the desired computation and a specification of the execution platform. The generated implementation incorporates execution platform opportunities such as parallelism. Operationally, the invention has two broad stages. First, it designs the abstract implementation in the problem domain in terms of an Intermediate Language (IL) that is unfettered by programming language restrictions and requirements. Concurrently, the design is evolved by specializing the IL to encapsulate a plurality of desired design features in the implementation such as partitioning for multicore and / or instruction level parallelism. Concurrently, constraints that stand in for implied implementation structures are added to the design and coordinated with other constraints. Second, the IL is refined into implementation code. With this invention, porting an implementation neutral computation to an arbitrary architecture can be automated.

Maintaining a set of runtime objects. A method of the invention detects creation of a runtime object by an application program or operating system. The method evaluates a predicate for a set associated with the runtime object to determine membership of the runtime object in the set. Further, one or more properties of the set may be applied to the determined runtime object members of the set (e.g., to control access to a resource).
