    Abstract: A method and apparatus for tracking a movable object using a plurality of images, each of which is separated by an interval of time is disclosed. The plurality of images includes first and second images. The method and apparatus include elements for aligning the first and second images as a function of (i) at least one feature of a first movable object captured in the first image, and (ii) at least one feature of a second movable object captured in the second image; and after aligning the first and second images, comparing at least one portion of the first image with at least one portion of the second image.

    Abstract: The present invention provides an Instant Messaging (IM) System (100) for a Virtual Learning Community (VLC). Clients (150) or user of the VLC are differentiated in their roles, and appropriate rules are set for each role by a Role Extension engine (124c). A user (150) is now allowed to appear with separate roles across separate groups. The Role Extension engine (124c) returns a structured contact list (192a) to a user and an Activation engine 124g updates the user presence information in a VLC Messenger Database 112. A roster engine (14, 25,26) then updates the presence of all the clients who has logged-on to a VLC Server (120), which comprises a VLC Database Server (122), a VLC Web Server (124) and a VLC Messenger Server (126). With the Role Extension engine (124c) together with VLC Client Application Tools (151), a lecturer or teaching assistant (TA) is able to monitor a virtual classroom in session and records students' attendance, inputs and participation. A lecturer can review the TA assessments and publish the students' progress report for continuous assessments. Classroom interaction is now enhanced, for example, a lecturer can take control over a student's desktop, mark a point on the student's desktop and broadcast the captured desktop to his group of students.

    Abstract: An integrated circuit an array of nodes linked by an on-chip communication network. Messages are communicated between nodes utilizing logical channels representing hardware resources at the associated nodes. A given logical channel is associated with a receiver node and a transmitter node. The receiver node is adapted to send flow control messages to the transmitter node. The flow control messages include credits that identify hardware resources of the receiver node that are available for receiving messages over the given logical channel. The transmitter node is adapted to maintain a running total of the credits included as part of the flow control messages communicated from the receiver node and to initiate transmission of messages to the receiver node in accordance with the running total of credits maintained at the transmitter node. In the preferred embodiment, the transmitter node is adapted to initiate transmission of a message to the receiver node only if the total number of credits maintained at the transmitter node is sufficient to store the message at the receiver node. A given credit can include an address generated by a receiver node and representing an address in the local memory of the receiver node for storing data. The transmitter node transmits the address of the given credit to the receiver node for storing data therein.

    Abstract: A scalable architecture for providing real-time multi-camera distributed video processing and visualization. An exemplary system comprises at least one video capture and storage system for capturing and storing a plurality of input videos, at least one vision based alarm system for detecting and reporting alarm situations or events, and at least one video rendering system (e.g., a video flashlight system) for displaying an alarm situation in a context that speeds up comprehension and response. One advantage of the present architecture is that these systems are all scalable, such that additional sensors (e.g., cameras, motion sensors, infrared sensors, chemical sensors, biological sensors, temperature sensors and like) can be added in large numbers without overwhelming the ability of security forces to comprehend the alarm situation.
