Abstract: A set-top box receives a channel input from a remote control associated with a user, and determines whether the channel input is a double-click channel input. The set-top box retrieves a user-defined content list, associated with the user, when the channel input is determined to be a double-click channel input, and tunes to a channel associated with the retrieved user-defined content list. The set-top box also receives content associated with the tuned to channel, and provides the received content to a television, where the television displays the received content to the user.

Abstract: A system for and method of parallel searching is presented. According to an embodiment, the techniques may be realized as a method, comprising receiving, at a network device, an indication of an electronic media selection from a user, identifying a search input in metadata associated with the electronic media selection, searching one or more electronic data sources based at least in part on the identified search input, and providing one or more search results via a network to one or more devices accessible to the user, wherein the one or more search results are capable of being delivered during delivery of the electronic media selection to the user.

Abstract: A system includes a content processing device in communication with a control device, the content processing device is configured to receive multi-media content from a network, and create a bookmark representing at least a portion of the multi-media content upon receiving a signal from the control device.

Abstract: An exemplary system and method are directed at receiving an audio signal and process the audio signal into a remapped audio signal based on a plot profile. The plot profile may include at least one of an identified range of audio frequencies. The processing may comprise retrieving an identified range of audio frequencies from the plot profile; determining a range of impaired audio frequencies in the audio signal based on the identified range of audio frequencies; shifting the frequency of at least a portion of the impaired audio frequencies to outside of the identified range; and continuing to retrieve identified ranges of audio frequencies from the plot profile. The shifting of the impaired audio frequencies of the audio signal may be performed until no further identified ranges of audio frequencies are available for consideration.

Abstract: A system and method for recording emergency data during a 911 call. The emergency data recorded may be in the form of a digital image. The digital image may be of the event prompting the 911 call. The digital image may be a single image, a series of images, or streaming video. The emergency data may be received on a portable electronic device, such as a cell phone, through a digital imaging device, such as a digital camera. The emergency data may then be transmitted to a server, wherein the emergency data is stored. The emergency data may be accessed by a 911 dispatcher during a 911 call to review the image data to aid in assessing the emergency recorded in the emergency data.

Abstract: A method includes receiving a policy via a network connection, wherein the policy includes at least one signature. Receiving a data communication message from a processor of a computing device via a system bus. Identifying a class, and selectively forwarding the data communication message based in part on the received policy and the identified class.

Abstract: An exemplary malware detection device includes a data pathway provided between a first data transfer device and a second data transfer device and a processor attached to the data pathway. A memory accessible by the processor contains at least one malware signature and instructions for controlling the processor to interconnect the first and second data transfer devices, direct at least a portion of a data transfer across the data pathway to the processor for analysis, independently analyze the portion of the data transfer using the malware signature, identify malware contained in the portion of the data transfer, and interrupt the data transfer based on the identification of malware.

Abstract: A computing device is configured to receive media content and determine if the received media content includes a stego message. If the media content includes a stego message, then the computing device is further configured to decode at least a portion of the stego message, and perform a task based in part on the decoded portion of the stego message.

Abstract: An approach is provided for mapping a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag to a network routable address.

Abstract: An approach is provided for managing network addressable radio frequency identification (RFID) tags. A management agent collects data from a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag that is assigned a network address for visibility within a data network. The agent generates a management message including the data for transmission over the data network to a manager configured to communicate with the agent using a management protocol.
