Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for recording data with pseudo-merge are provided. The apparatus comprises a storage medium for storing a first and a second files and a File Allocation Table (FAT) for recording a first start position and a first end position for the first file and recording a second start position and a second end position for the second file. The method modifies the first end position of the first file to be the second start position of the second file so as to merge the first and second files into a first merged file.
Abstract:
An embodiment of a method for computer graphics with out-of-band (OOB) background comprises the following steps. A 2D OOB background image is provided. A 3D entity is provided. A 2D foreground image is generated by rendering the 3D entity. A 2D display image is generated according to the 2D background image and the 2D foreground image. The 2D display image is displayed on a display device.
Abstract:
Profiling systems and methods. A profiling system comprises a processor that runs a kernel including a scheduler. The scheduler locates a context that to be switched to, records a time and an identification of the context, and switches to the context for execution. The context comprises a thread, a process, or an interrupt service routine. The recorded time and the identification of the context are used for context profiling.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method, applied in a mobile device, for determining operational settings of the device. A signal is received from a transmitter. The signal is decoded to retrieve a first country information. An operational setting of a function on the device is determined.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method, applied in a mobile device, for determining operational settings of the device. Country information is retrieved on the device. An operational setting of a function is automatically determined based on the country information. Furthermore, a table comprising a plurality of first fields for recording country information and a plurality of second fields, each of which being corresponding to one first field, for recording output signal formats/exposure time is provided. After the country information on the device is acquired, an output signal format/exposure time of a function on the device is determined based on the country information by looking up the table.

Abstract:
A playback device for playing an audio-visual (AV) signal. The AV signal includes a video signal portion and an audio signal portion. The playback device includes: a reference time point retrieving unit for retrieving playback timing of the audio signal portion to be a reference time point; and an AV synchronization control unit for controlling playback of the video signal portion according to the reference time point.
Abstract:
A facility for analyzing user behavior information is described. The facility receives a stream, of user behavior information. The facility augments a representation of user behavior in accordance with the received stream of user behavior information. The representation augmented by the facility is a sparse matrix of user behavior facts. The facility analyzes the sparse matrix to obtain an analysis result for the received stream of user behavior.
Abstract:
A method for synchronized recording of audio and video signals is provided. The video signals are grouped into a plurality of video frames. The method comprises the steps of incrementing a counter value of an audio counter when an audio signal is received; and recording the current counter value of the audio counter when a video frame is received.
