Apparatus and a method for communicating media over a network including encoding the media into a server database at a server, downloading from the server database to a client database generally only those portions of the media which are necessary to satisfy user requests and in response to a user request for a given item of media, determining whether the media is present in the client database, and if not, automatically downloading those portions of the media which are necessary to supply the user with the given item of media from the server database. An image server is provided including at least one processor operative to supply portions of image data to clients in response to multiple requests therefrom, and thread management software operating the at least one processor by causing it to process the requests using at least one of a plurality of threads, the thread management software being characterized in that it initiates a new thread when an existing thread has exceeded a predetermined metric of busyness.

Method and system for providing on-line interactivity over a server-client network

A method and system for monitoring activity of an image server which stores a multiplicity of images, at least some of which contain plural image portions, the method including the steps of monitoring which of the multiplicity of images stored on the image server are accessed, monitoring accessing of individual ones of the plural image portions of each of the multiplicity of images stored on the image server which are accessed, and providing an output indication of the number of times that each image portion of the multiplicity of images stored on the image server is accessed.

Method and system for server access control and tracking

A system for controlling access to broadcast transmissions including a transmitter having a transmission encoder for scrambling the broadcast, a multiplicity of subscriber receivers, each having an identical receiving decoder, containing no secret cryptographic keys, for descrambling the broadcast and a plurality of selectable and portable executing apparatus each being operatively associatable with a receiving decoder at a partially different given time and each executing generally identical operations to generate a seed for use by the associated receiving decoder to enable the receiving decoder to descramble the broadcast.
