  • Patent number: 9933930
    Abstract: An example image layout and display navigator system includes a navigator that includes a miniature layout representation corresponding to the layout of images on the display. The navigator is to appear on the display based on user action with respect to displayed content and to allow a user to select an image series via the miniature layout and to select one or more series level operations for application to the image series via the miniature layout. The navigator is to apply a selected series level operation to the image series via the miniature layout based on user input. An action in one of the navigator and the display is to translate into a corresponding action on the other of the navigator and the display. The content display manager is to update the content displayed to reflect the selected series level operation applied to the image series.

  • Publication number: 20110235637
    Abstract: A method in a network switch for improved multicast functionality includes receiving information regarding for which group or groups of receivers content is intended, comparing the received information with stored information regarding which receivers belong to which group or groups of receivers to identify receivers belonging to the group or groups of receivers for which the content is intended and multi-casting the content to the identified receivers. In one embodiment, the group or groups of receivers are pre-established using a device group control protocol and are distinguished using a unique identifier for each group. In an alternate embodiment, the group or groups of receivers are established by the network switch.
