A program model that includes requirements and control objects associated with requirements, workflows, proof assets. Workflow tasks associated with the workflows may generate requests to collect each proof asset associated with the control objects. Workflow tasks may validate each collected proof asset based on the plurality of control objects associated with each collected proof asset. Workflow tasks may determine completed control objects based on the validated proof assets. Workflow tasks may employ an amount of the completed control objects that is equivalent to the amount of the control objects associated with the program model to provide a report indicating that the requirements associated with the program model may be satisfied. Workflow tasks may employ detection of modifications to the validated proof assets to determine a portion of the workflow tasks based on the modified proof assets such that the portion of the workflow tasks may be re-executed.

A wireless mobile phone is provided with an input-output interface and an output interface. The input-output interface may be employed singularly to facilitate removable attachment of a telephony headset to the phone to receive at least telephony audio signals from the phone, and to provide audio signals to the phone. Similarly, the output interface may be employed singularly to facilitate removable attachment of an audio output only headset to the phone to receive at least a selected one of telephony and non-telephony audio signals from the phone. However, the input-output interface and the output interface may also be used jointly to facilitate removable attachment of a two-plug headset to the phone to receive at least a selected one of telephony and non-telephony audio signals from the phone, and to provide audio signals to the phone.

A method, system and computer-readable medium for providing user-interfacing within textures of three-dimensional models. A processor with hardware and software components stores one or more markup documents with one or more user-interface element that may be a link element in one or more texture image files of predefined three-dimensional model(s). Then, the processor generates a three-dimensional model(s) for display on a display device based on predefined three-dimensional model information, predefined viewpoint information and the one or more markup documents stored in the one or more texture image files. Users can cause the processor to generate a new markup documents as texture by selecting a link element displayed within the three-dimensional model's texture.

The disclosed invention constitutes a method and system, including an audio mixer, for selecting audio streams from one or more applications running on a computer system. An application can register its audio streams with the audio mixer either as sound focus audio streams or as priority audio streams. With respect to the sound focus audio streams, the audio mixer determines which of the applications has the sound focus and generates an audio output signal from those sound focus audio streams to drive the computer's sound device and thereby to produce an audible sound for the user. Sound focus is determined when an application gains the input focus, opens an audio stream, closes an audio stream, or registers with the audio mixer. With respect to the priority audio streams, those priority audio streams are always selected by the audio mixer and are mixed with the sound focus audio streams from the application having sound focus to generate a composite audio output signal. The audio streams are scaled so that mixing audio streams does not normally exceed the volume limit of the sound device.
