    Abstract: A computer-implemented method of decoding video data in multiple resolution formats includes receiving an encoded video stream including a salient data and a non-salient data, the salient data having a higher resolution format than the non-salient data. The video stream is decoded into the non-salient data in a lower-resolution format and the salient data in the higher-resolution format. The non-salient data is reconstructed to a higher resolution format. The salient data and the reconstructed non-salient data are combined to form a video stream in the higher-resolution format of the salient data.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a method that determines the potential impact of software upgrades on a computing device. The method works by detecting the configuration of each device 102(1) – 102(N) on a network 106, including the software and hardware elements present in the devices. Then a query for an upgrade 113 for an application on a device is received. The device configuration 103(1) of the device requesting the update is identified, and other devices that installed the update are identified. The operating history of the behaviour of devices with the update and the profile of the devices are retrieved. The profiles are analysed for hardware and software conflicts with the application, and then determine if the upgrade will potentially cause a failure in the software or hardware present in the first device based operational history of the application and the update in the other devices and the similarity between the profile of the other devices and the device being upgraded. The user is then presented with a recommendation of whether to install the upgrade on their device.

    Abstract: Providing document access control based on document component layouts, a processor detects a layout of a document, the layout including one or more components of the document. The components maybe tables, figures, paragraphs and specific document sections. A processor defines an access policy to access the one or more components based on the layout. A processor authorizes a request to access the one or more components based on the access policy and the layout. A processor retrieves the one or more components based on the access policy and the authorized request, where retrieving the one or more components includes displaying them based on the access level. A layout similarity maybe determined between the document and a second document and based on a similarity threshold dynamically applying the access policy to the second document to retrieve a component of a second document based on the access policy.
