Disclosed is a method and system for processing images from an aerial imaging device. A moving vehicle analysis system receives images from an aerial imaging device. The system may perform edge analysis in the images to identify a pairs of edges corresponding to a road. The system may identify pixel blobs in the images including adjacent pixels matching each other based on a pixel attribute. The system uses a machine learning model for generating an output identifying moving vehicles in the images. The system determines a count of the moving vehicles captured by the images, where each moving vehicle is associated with corresponding pixel blobs.

A structure for a parallel cyclic redundancy check (CRC) structure in which the number of cycles in the loopback can be arbitrarily extended is provided. The parallel CRC structure includes a reweighting module in the feedback loop that is pipelined into multiple stages. The parallel CRC structure also includes multiple feed forward reweighting modules that correspond to the multiple pipeline stages in the feedback loop. The reweighting module in the feedback loop accumulates and reweights the contribution of all symbols in the message, while the N reweighting modules in the N parallel feed-forward paths provide the contributions of the symbols that are 'in-flight' within the feedback loop to the final CRC checksum.

Generation of documentation from a computer readable symbolic representation is described. In an embodiment, a reified version of an input is obtained as coded objects. The input is readable by a programmed computer for execution, and is in an applied form of a symbolic representation of knowledge for a defined domain of knowledge. The reified version is a coded form of the applied form, wherein the coded objects are in a dynamic language. A content sequence library is accessed by the programmed computer responsive to the coded objects to extract content for a document plan. A reasoning library is then accessed by the programmed computer responsive to the content extracted to provide a sequenced organization of phrase structure for the content extracted. A natural language representation of the input is output from a realization of the sequenced organization of phrase structure.

An automatic archiving system makes document archiving largely transparent to the user. In one embodiment, documents scanned in or printed during the course of office equipment operation are automatically archived. When a document is copied, printed, or faxed, a document image is archived by the document management workstation without further user intervention. A single user command results in the document being copied and archived, printed and archived, or faxed and archived. In accordance with a first aspect, an image processing device includes a receiving means for receiving a single input, a printing means, a memory device, and a communication means for communicating with said memory device. Responsive to receiving said single input requesting the printing of a document by said receiving means, said printing means prints the document and said communication means sends image data representing said document to said memory device.

Whenever, a document is copied, printed, or faxed, a document image is archived by the document management workstation without further user intervention. A single user command results in the document being copied and archived, printed and archived, Of faxed and archived.

A method is provided for generating a hardware description language (HDL) specification of a network packet processor from a textual language specification of the processing of network packets by the processor. The processor includes a look-ahead stage, an operation stage, an insert/remove stage, and an interleave stage. The textual language specification identifies the ports of the processor. The textual language specification includes formats for the type or types of the incoming and outgoing network packets. Each format includes the fields of the type of network packet. The textual language specification includes a procedure for each input port and for each type of incoming network packet received at the input port. Each procedure includes one or more actions for modifying the fields of a type of network packet as a function of state data and/or the fields of the type of network packet.

Techniques for capturing information during multimedia presentations. According to an embodiment, the presentation recording appliance (PRA) receives multimedia presentation information comprising video information and/or audio information. The PRA may also receive information from external sources other than the first source. The audio and video information received by the PRA is then processed and stored in a format which facilitates subsequent retrieval.

Techniques for receiving information during multimedia presentations and for communicating the received information to one or more information access devices. A presentation recorder adapter receives information during a multimedia presentation and communicates the information to access devices. The adapter may receive multimedia presentation information, comprising video information and audio information, from a first source. The adapter may also receive information from a second source separate from the first source during the multimedia presentation. For example, the second source may be an attendee of the multimedia presentation. The adapter may transmit the multimedia presentation information received from the first source and the information received from the second source to one or more information access devices.

In-system signal monitoring using an integrated circuit such as a programmable logic device is described. An analog-to-digital converter is disposed in the programmable logic device. A sampling bridge is coupled to provide an analog input to the analog-to-digital converter and to receive first signaling of a first frequency.

A set of S-machines, a T-machine corresponding to each S-machine, a General Purpose Interconnect Matrix (GPIM), a set of I/O T-machines, a set of I/O devices, and a master time-base unit form a system for scalable, parallel, dynamically reconfigurable computing. Each S-machine is a dynamically reconfigurable computer having a memory, a first local time-base unit, and a Dynamically Reconfigurable Processing Unit (DRPU). The DRPU is implemented using a reprogrammable logic device configured as an suction Fetch Unit (IFU), a Data Operate Unit (DOU), and an Address Operate Unit (AOU), each of which are selectively reconfigured during program execution in response to a reconfiguration interrupt or the selection of a reconfiguration directive embedded within a set of program instructions. Each reconfiguration interrupt and each reconfiguration directive references a configuration data set specifying a DRPU hardware organization optimized for the implementation of a particular Instruction Set Architecture (ISA). The IFU directs reconfiguration operations, instruction fetch and decode operations, memory access operations, and issues control signals to the DOU and the AOU to facilitate instruction execution. The DOU performs data computations, and the AOU performs address computations. Each T-machine is a data transfer device having a common interface and control unit, one or more interconnect I/O units, and a second local time-base unit. The GPIM is a scalable interconnect network that facilitates parallel communication between T-machines. The set of T-machines and the GPIM facilitate parallel communication between S-machines. The T-machines also control the transfer of data between S-machines in the network, and provide the addressing operations required. A meta-address is used to provide scalable bit-addressable capability to every S-Machine.
