  • Patent number: 7997984
    Abstract: Methods and systems for gaming over a network or communications medium such as via the Internet. In specific embodiments, a real video gaming experience is generated by for a player at a client system from a sequence of real world derived chance events and associated video clips. The server system optionally provides a sequence in an encoded format and the sequence is delivered to the client where the client uses the sequence to create a game of chance for a player.

  • Patent number: 7051306
    Abstract: Systems and methods manage power in an integrated circuit using power islands. The integrated circuit includes a plurality of power islands where power consumption is independently controlled within each of the power islands. A power manager determines a target power level for one of the power islands. The power manager then determines an action to change a consumption power level of the one of the power islands to the target power level. The power manager performs the action to change the consumption power level of the one of the power islands to the target power level.
