Abstract: Systems and methods for providing one-to-one and audio and video calls or for providing multi-party audio or video conferences also provide language translation services. When language translation services are provided, a party to a call or conference hears both the audio of the speaker, and a translated version of the speaker's audio.

Abstract: A system and method characterizes the height of targets in an environment around a vehicle. Signals are transmitted into the environment and return signals are received to determine a track corresponding to a target. For each track, bins are generated, each bin corresponding to a segment of the range, the segments having a gradually increasing size between the minimum range and maximum range. Range and magnitude values of the received return signals are determined for a selected track. A plurality of filled bins are determined, filled bins indicating that a return signal within the selected track has a range value falling within the segment corresponding to said bin. When the number of filled bins exceeds a set threshold, the return signals having range values within the segments corresponding to the filled bins are analyzed to characterize a height of the target.

Abstract: Approaches for collaborative advertising bidding comprise receiving, from an ad exchange, a bid request for an advertisement space for a viewing user. The approaches further comprise retrieving logged data associated with the viewing user, the logged data corresponding to the viewing user's online exposure to web content including at least one of commercial webpages, online representations of services or products having purchase information, and advertisements. A first advertiser and a second advertiser who have entered into an advertising collaborating relationship to respond to bid requests are identified. A determination is made as to whether a portion of the retrieved logged data for the viewing user is associated with the first advertiser or with the second advertiser. Additionally, based on the determining, one of the first advertiser and the second advertiser is selected to submit a bid for the advertisement space in response to the bid request.

Abstract: A method of identifying a damaged bitline address in a non-volatile memory device is introduced. The non-volatile memory device includes a memory cell array and a plurality of bit lines crossing the memory cell array. Each bit line has a first end and a second end. The bit lines are divided into a first group and a second group. The method includes applying a source voltage (charging) or ground voltage (discharging) to a specific group of bit lines, testing the bit lines in two testing stages (open-circuit testing and short-circuit testing) by the principle that no damaged bit line can be charged or discharged, and acquiring an address data of a damaged bit line according to a status data stored in a page buffering circuit and related to whether a bit line is damaged, thereby dispensing with a calculation process for estimating the address of the damaged bit line.

Abstract: There is provided a powerline network that includes a number of stations including a central coordinator for coordinating transmissions of each of the stations. Each of the stations is configurable to generate one or more tone maps for communicating with each of the other stations in the powerline network. Each tone map includes a set of tones to be used on a communication link between two of the stations. Each tone map further includes a unique set of modulation methods for each tone. Each of the stations is further configurable to generate a default tone map for communicating with each of the other stations, where the default tone map is valid for all portions of a powerline cycle. Each of the stations is further configurable to monitor its bandwidth needs and to request additional bandwidth from the central coordinator.
