A method for streaming vector images to wireless devices, including receiving a request from a wireless device for a portion of a vector image and a target display width and height, the vector image including a plurality of vector primitives, determining which of the vector primitives are positioned so as to overlap the requested portion, clipping the overlapping vector primitives with the portion, and transmitting the clipped vector primitives that overlap the portion. A system and a computer readable storage medium are also described and claimed.

Method and system for streaming documents, e-mail attachments and maps to wireless devices

A method for streaming a vector image to a client computer, including: accessing a pre-processed vector image that was generated from a vector image, the pre-processed vector image including a plurality of local rectangular regions and a plurality of local vector objects, each local vector object being associated with one of the local rectangular regions; receiving a request from a user of a client computer for a desired portion of the vector image, for display at a desired pixel display resolution; identifying at least one local rectangular region from among the plurality of local rectangular regions of the pre-processed vector image, which is appropriate for generating the desired portion of the vector image at the desired display resolution; and transmitting the local vector objects associated with the at least one local rectangular region to the client computer.

Method and system for streaming documents, E-mail attachments and maps to wireless devices

A method for interactively viewing a vector animation sequence, including receiving an indexed look-up table that stores a plurality of local vector objects associated with tile regions of a first vector image, indicating a request for a desired portion of a second vector image, for display at a specified resolution, determining tile regions of a pre-processed vector image, wherein the pre-processed vector image includes a plurality of tile regions and a plurality of local vector objects, each local vector object being associated with one of the tile regions, requesting at least one tile region of the pre-processed vector image from a server computer, receiving local vector objects and local vector object indices, extracting local vector objects from the indexed look-up table according to the local vector object indices, and generating the desired portion of the second vector image using the received local vector objects and the extracted local vector objects.

A method for interactively viewing a vector image, including indicating a request for a desired portion of a vector image, for display at a specified resolution, determining local rectangular regions of a pre-processed vector image that was generated from the vector image, from among a plurality of local rectangular regions, that are appropriate for generating the desired portion of the vector image therefrom, wherein the pre-processed vector image includes a plurality of local rectangular regions and a plurality of local vector objects, each local vector object being associated with one of the local rectangular regions, requesting at least one rectangular region of the pre-processed vector image from a server computer, receiving local vector objects associated with the requested at least one rectangular region of the pre-processed vector image from the server computer, and generating the desired portion of the vector image using the received local vector objects.

Method and system for receiving a local vector object and viewing a vector image

A method for streaming media. The method can include requesting, at a client, a first portion of raster data from a server. The raster data can be referenced in a scalable vector graphics (SVG) document. The first portion of raster data and a selection can be received by the client. A second portion of the raster data can be requested from the server based on the first portion and the selection. The client can receive the second portion of raster data.

Method and system for streaming images to wireless devices

A method for pre-processing a vector image, including: receiving data for a vector image, the vector image data including a list of descriptions of global vector objects that can be rasterized for display at arbitrary levels of resolution; for each local region from among a plurality of local rectangular regions of the vector image, the local rectangular regions being associated with levels of resolution, determining local vector objects that correspond to intersections of global vector objects with such local region; and for each local region from among the plurality of local rectangular regions, storing descriptions of its local vector objects within a computer memory.

A method for interactively viewing raster images using scalable vector graphics (SVG), including receiving an SVG document, the SVG document including a reference to a raster image within the SVG document, the reference indicating a rectangular portion, a display width and height, and an IP address for a server computer, passing the SVG document to an SVG viewer, rendering the SVG document, including requesting from the server computer a first portion of raster image data corresponding to the rectangular portion, display width and display height, the first portion of raster image data being derived from the raster image, receiving the first portion of raster image data from the server computer, displaying the first portion of raster image data, transmitting a user request for a different portion of the raster image data, receiving a modified SVG document, modified according to the different portion requested by the user, passing the modified SVG document to the SVG viewer for re-rendering. A system and a computer readable storage medium are also described and claimed.
