A method and system are disclosed for enabling members of the deaf, hard of hearing, or speech-impaired (D-HOH-SI) community to start and control communications conducted through a video relay service (VRS) without the need for a remote-control device. A combination of standard-ASL and non-ASL hand commands are interpreted using 'hand recognition' (similar to 'face recognition') to control the operation of a VRS system through multiple operating modes. The &#x201c;hand recognition&#x201d; process employs a camera/codec connected to a CPU which executes commands which may be stored in a non-volatile computer-readable storage device.

Gesture-based control and usage of video relay service communications

A method implemented in a network component, the method comprising receiving a presence information message from a presence server in a ring of a plurality of presence servers, removing content in the presence information message that is previously originated by the network component and previously sent on the ring, copying the presence information message locally for subsequent processing, appending to the presence information message buffered presence information from a local client coupled to the network component, and forwarding the presence information message to a second presence server in the ring.

Efficient presence distribution mechanism for a large enterprise

System and methods for meeting update dissemination in a real-time communication system are provided. An embodiment method of disseminating updates in a real-time communications system includes storing, in a database, indicators received from a leader of a meeting, the indicators pertaining to predetermined topics to be discussed during the meeting, collecting, in the database, data from the meeting corresponding to the indicators while the meeting is in progress, receiving, at the database, an indication that a participant has joined the meeting after the meeting has begun, and alerting, by the database, the participant that the data that was collected before the participant joined the meeting is available to the participant for review during the meeting.

Meeting update dissemination in a real-time communication system

An apparatus to automatically prioritize and divide a video into a plurality of video segments for a user, wherein the apparatus comprises a processor configured to, obtain a plurality of video content data that describes the content within the video, display the video in a viewable format for the user, receive at least one keyword from a search field, wherein the keyword indicates the type of video content data the user is searching for, search through the video content data using the keyword, divide the video into the plurality of video segments using the keyword, prioritize the video segments using the keyword, and display the prioritize video segments in a priority list.

Context driven video prioritization and bookmarking

Methods, devices, and systems for managing sensitive data are provided. The management tool may be provided on a user input device, as opposed to being provided in memory or in a peripheral that can be read from a program running on a computing platform. The management tool may be maintained in a read/write isolation mode where no data is transmitted outside of the management tool unless the user input device is disengaged from the computing platform, at which point data may be transmitted from the management tool for ultimate delivery to the computing platform.

Secure data management device

The present invention is directed to automatically analyzing software systems for identifying faults or bugs and/or detection of malicious code. In various embodiments, the present invention measures code coverage for high priority invocable program elements, uses a relaxed coverage estimation technique that, instead of guaranteeing which code units will be executed, guarantees that at least a certain number of code units will be executed, determines and solves constraints in code to identify infeasible paths containing one or more selected nodes, determines, for a composite data type, a range of values for each of at least two non-composite data fields, and/or translates, prior to code analysis complex code into simpler code having fewer operators.
