Abstract: An office telephone system contains packet switched network and network telephone sets coupled to said packet switched network for transmitting and receiving speech data in addressed packets. A packet switched network interface taps the packet switched network and processes packets received from the packet switched network by identifying first and second packets that contain network voice call data for respective sides of a network telephone calls. The packet switched network interface mixing speech data from the first and second packets into streams while the call proceeds. Each stream comprising a mix of speech data from both sides of a respective one of the network telephone calls. An application program interface defines provides access to the streams to a programmable set of applications. In addition a line interface circuit taps call dedicate telephone lines outside the network and generates further speech data streams from signals from the call dedicated telephone lines.

Abstract: A method for verifying the authenticity and integrity of an ordered sequence of digital video frames, without having access to the original recording, by embedding therein a respective series of digital signatures based on a secret key, or keys, and on the video content of respective frames. Signatures are camouflaged by embedding in transform coefficients of a transformed representation of the video data in parts of the frame corresponding to motion. If there is sufficient motion to contain all of the signature bits, a supplementary technique embeds in high-texture areas of a frame. A final fall-back is to embed in a pre-defined default zone. A method of predicting when supplementary embedding is needed enables the process to be applied in a single pass allowing real-time operation. Verification is done during decoding by comparing, for identity, embedded signatures with signatures calculated anew using the method employed to embed.
