A system and method that allows content to be broadcast without commercial interruption, yet lets the company or companies that sponsor the broadcast to offer advertisements and discounts and various special offers to the viewers at a later time. The amount of time a viewer spends watching a particular broadcast is recorded along with information about the sponsoring companies or organizations for the broadcast. The viewer later accesses a central database, which sends back to the viewer advertisements, coupons, discounts, contests, and other enticements to purchase products, based on the amount of time the viewer spent watching broadcasts or segments of broadcasts that were sponsored by the advertiser.

Method for advertisers to sponsor broadcasts without commercials

This invention converts markup language files such as HTML files into pseudocode that is structured like programming language source code in order to use source code copy detection tools to find pairs of markup language files that have been copied in full or in part.

Detecting plagiarism in computer markup language files

A method and system for detecting plagiarism of software source code is disclosed. In one embodiment, a database exists of program elements that have previously been found to be matching within the source code for two different programs. This embodiment searches the Internet for occurrences of these matching program elements to determine how many times they appear and thus whether they are commonly used or not. The elements and their associated number of hits are placed in a spreadsheet for further observation and manipulation. One of skill in the art will see that this invention also applies to other kinds of text documents.

Searching the internet for common elements in a document in order to detect plagiarism

Plagiarism is detected by comparing statements within source code of a first program to comments within source code of a second program.

Detecting plagiarism in computer source code

A software tool allows a user to filter out the results produced by a software source code correlation program that is executed on sets of software source code files. The tool allows the user to discard elements of source code that are not relevant to the analysis without requiring the user to run the correlation program multiple times.

A system and method is described for connecting a logic circuit simulation to a hardware peripheral that includes a computer running software for communicating data to and from the hardware peripheral. The software transmits the data received from the hardware peripheral to the device being simulated by the logic circuit simulation. The computer also transmits the data received from the device being simulated by the electronic circuit simulation to the hardware peripheral. This allows the user to test the device being simulated using real hardware for input and output instead of simulated hardware.

Conveying data from a hardware device to a circuit simulation

A method and system for detecting plagiarism of software source code. In one embodiment, a first set of arrays and a second set of arrays are created for a first program source code file and a second program source code file respectively. Each pair of arrays in the first and second sets has entries corresponding to program elements of a distinct program element type such as functional program code, program comments, or program code identifiers. Next, each pair of arrays from the first and second sets is compared to find similar entries, and an intermediate match score is calculated for each pair of arrays based on the similar entries. Further, the resulting intermediate match scores are combined to produce a combined match score, which is then used to provide an indication of copying with respect to the first program source code file and the second program source code file.

Software tool for detecting plagiarism in computer source code

Methods and systems for detecting copied program code are described. The detection may be performed by comparing source code of a first program to object code of a second program. Alternatively, the detection may be performed by comparing object code of a first program to object code of a second program.

Use of hardware peripheral devices with software simulations

A system and method for connecting a running logic circuit simulation to a network running at a higher speed that includes a computer for receiving data packets from the network and storing the received data packets in a first buffer. The computer next transmits the received data packets to an electronic circuit in the logic circuit simulation at a slower speed. The computer also receives data packets from the electronic device under simulation, and stores the data packets received from the electronic device under simulation in a second buffer. The computer then transmits the data packets received from the electronic device under simulation to the network at a higher speed.

A method and an apparatus take software source code to synthesize a hardware platform for running the software. The method determines which processor is suitable for running the code and meeting the performance parameters determined by the user. The method also determines which hardware devices are accessed by software. If the hardware target is a semiconductor chip, the invention selects the appropriate IP and creates an HDL description of the chip. If the hardware target is a printed circuit board, the invention creates a schematic or netlist that includes the appropriate microprocessor, the various semiconductor chips, and the necessary interconnections.

Apparatus and method for connecting hardware to a circuit simulation

Software that modifies the source code for readily available software tasks&#x2014;typically applications and hardware drivers&#x2014;so that a small, fast, reliable operating system can be synthesized to control execution of these readily available software tasks.

Using readily available driver and application source code with a synthesized operating system

A tool for developing software source code for embedded systems that allows the user to automatically generate a real-time operating system for scheduling of multi-tasking operations while preventing deadlocks between the real-time tasks. The tool takes parameters that let the user assign priorities and timing characteristics to different tasks and to experiment with different scheduling algorithms.
