Methods and apparatus to identify a type of acoustic event Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCCs). In one embodiment, received sound is processed using the MFCCs to locate a peak for comparison with a stored event to determine if the peak corresponds to the acoustic event.

Methods and apparatus for acoustic event detection

In one embodiment, a first portion and a second portion of a data set are identified. The first portion of the data set is sent to a first node that stores it in a first primary storage. The first primary storage is configured such that a first processor of the first node accesses information stored in the first primary storage without accessing another storage device. The second portion of the data set is sent to a second node that stores it in a second primary storage. The second primary storage is configured such that a second processor of the second node accesses information stored in the second primary storage without accessing another storage device. The first node generates a first set of results by processing the first portion of the data set. The second node generates a second set of results by processing the second portion of the data set.

System and method for distributed processing

The invention provides a system configured to enable a first entity to query a second entity for a result, the system comprising a language specification component and an interface between the first entity and the second entity. The language specification component defines a communications language by which the first and second entities can communicate with each other. The interface is operable to receive from the second entity an instance of a generic request that is specific to the second entity, the instance of the generic request providing information about at least one query element that is supported in a second-entity specific request; and convert a first query from the first entity to the second entity into a second query, wherein the second query includes the at least one query element that is supported in the second-entity specific request.
