Abstract: This invention relates to a method of creating a graphical presentation data stream having special controls/hints which are device independent and permit text to be processed at higher speeds. The special controls/hints are added to the graphical presentation data stream to identify where limitations have been made for text presentation. A begin data characteristic control is added to the graphical presentation data stream to indicate the start of limitations. The limitations remain in effect until an associated end data characteristic control is encountered. An identification field is part of each begin/end characteristic control. The identification field defines the specific process used to generate the delimited portion of the data stream.

Abstract: A PRINTING SYSTEM WHEREIN JUSTIFICATION DETERMINATION IS SHARED BETWEEN A HOST PROCESSOR AND A PRINTER In a printing system comprising a printer controlled by a host processor, a system of justification is provided wherein the determination of justification parameters is shared by the host processor and the printer formatting processor. Justification means in the host processor determine which spaces in a line are to be altered to effect justification. Means are provided for conveying data from the host processor to the printer indicating which spaces in a particular line are to be so altered, and means are provided in the printer for determining the size of the indicated spaces necessary to effect such a justification.

Abstract: TABULATION CONTROL SYSTEM A system having two tab racks for controlling playout of sequentially stored text columns in a side-by-side format. During input keying set up of a job, desired tabs are set in a text tab rack and stored in a text buffer along with the text. These tabs will be in control for following keyed text. If new or additional tabs are required to define column boundaries during later playout, they are keyed, set, and stored prior to the text for the columns. In any event, the tabs in effect at the beginning of input keying of the columnar job will be in control for the column text. Upon later playout from the buffer and when the beginning of the first column is reached, a copy of the tabs set in the text tab rack is transferred to a column tab rack to control the column boundaries. If different tabs are required for the text in the columns, they must have been stored in the buffer after the beginning of the first column or playout must be interrupted for input keying of these tabs.

Abstract: DA9-91-074 AUTOMATED AUDIO/VISUAL PRESENTATION A method and apparatus is provided for delivering multimedia information to a user at a workstation in a data processing system. This invention utilizes existing office equipment for the playback of audio and visual information through the use of the telephone for playback of audio information and the workstation's image display capability for playback of visual information. Audio information is captured and stored in a device which may be accessed via a telephone connection. storage of the information may be in analog or digital form. Visual information is captured using a video capture adaptor or computer connected scanning device and stored digitally in a form usable by a playback component. A play list is prepared for the visual information which identifies the order and duration for presentation of the captured images. The digital images and associated play list may be sent to the workstation via modem, Local Area Network (LAN), etc. Upon arrival at the user s workstation, playback of the visual information is accomplished utilizing the play list which indicates the order and duration of the visual images. The audio information is presented by calling a specified telephone number to access a prerecorded audio messages associated with the video and is then synchronized with the visual information.

Abstract: The method and apparatus of the present invention may be utilized for the efficient interchange of multimedia data in a data processing system. A sequential data stream is established which includes multiple variable length consecutive sections, each of which includes multiple data samples. Each data sample preferably includes a collection of data and a control structure or header which is utilized to specify a manner of interpreting the collection of data. In the depicted embodiment of the present invention a track collection index is transmitted in conjunction with the sequential data stream and utilized to identify the physical location of various track samples within the data stream. Additionally, a track sequence index is provided which may be utilized to identify the logical order in which the data samples are to be utilized in each selected track to create a multi-media presentation along with an indication of the playback speed to be utilized. This sequential data stream, track collection index and track sequence index are then transmitted throughout a distributed data processing system utilizing various personal computers or intelligent work stations, permitting multimedia data to be efficiently interchanged.

Abstract: A9-90-037 METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MULTIMEDIA DATA INTERCHANGE IN A DATA PROCESSING SYSTEM A method for multimedia data interchange in a data processing system. A sequential data stream is established which includes multiple variable length consecutive sections, each of which includes multiple data samples. Each data sample preferably includes a collection of data and a control structure or header which is utilized to specify a manner of interpreting the collection of data. The control structure preferably includes information regarding the size of the collection of data, the resolution and duration of the collection of data, the manner of data collection employed and the encoding technique utilized, if any. This sequential data stream is then transmitted throughout a distributed data processing system utilizing various personal computers or interactive work stations, permitting multimedia data to be efficiently interchanged.

Abstract: SYSTEM FOR RANDOMLY ACCESSING A RECIRCULATING MEMORY A control system for randomly accessing the contents of a recirculating shift register memory under the control of a processor. The processor provides to the control system an address equivalent to the number of positions the operating point (defined by an operating flag) is to be moved in the shift register memory to access the information desired by the processor. The control system decodes the address, removes the operating flag from the memory character stream and reinserts the operating flag in the memory at the point desired by the processor during a single revolution of the memory.

Abstract: LINE SPACING AND COLUMN FORMAT CONTROL SYSTEM A system for printing a plurality of sequentially stored text columns in a side-by-side format with the line spacing of one column varying from that of another. Each column is to be printed out in an operator defined location. After a line from one of the columns is printed on a print line in a defined location, the carrier is caused to escape. Any corresponding lines from succeeding columns, as determined by their line spacing requirements, are printed on the same line prior to causing a printer carrier return. That is, the line spacing requirement of a column is utilized to determine whether a line from the column is to be printed on the print line being printed.
