Abstract: One embodiment of a computer-implemented method for automatically generating command recommendations for a software workflow comprises identifying a plurality of command sequences stored in a database based on a current command being interacted with in a graphical user interface; computing a score for each command sequence included in the plurality of command sequences based on one or more commands included in the command sequence and one or more commands included in a command history; determining at least one command sequence included in the plurality of command sequences to output based on the scores; and outputting the at least one command sequence for display.

Abstract: A method for controlling air conditioning devices in a transportation vehicle wherein, upon the recording of an operator's air conditioning need and a conversion of the need into an air conditioning function for an air conditioning device, the implementability of the air conditioning need is compared with an influencing variable measured by a sensor. In response to the air conditioning need being recognized as implementable, information asserting this fact is issued to the operator. An apparatus for performing the method.

Abstract: A method for operating a teleconference includes receiving a first video and audio signal from a first teleconference participant and receiving a second video and audio signal from a second teleconference participant. The method further includes relaying the first video and audio signal to the second teleconference participant and relaying the second video and audio signal to the first teleconference participant. The method additionally includes analyzing the first video and audio signal using a plurality of behavior analytics to determine a level of participant engagement of the first teleconference participant. The method further includes determining that the first teleconference participant is not engaged when the determined level of participant engagement is below a predetermined threshold.

Abstract: A system and associated method for subscribing Really Simple Syndication (RSS) enabled content using the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) are disclosed. An application server coupled to a Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) server in the Internet intermediates a SIP message and a request for a RSS feed. An end device requests subscription of the RSS feed in a SIP message. The HTTP server enables the application server to subscribe the RSS feed and to track changes in the RSS feed over the Internet by use of a Serving Call/Session Control Function (S-CSCF) servicing the SIP message. The HTTP server enables the end device subscribing the RSS feed to fetch the web content from the media cache in later part of the subscription by providing updates to the application server.

Abstract: A streaming engine and method includes a plurality of input types configured to pass one of samples and frames from an input stream. A processing block is configured to process the samples and frames independently of input and output types and produce any kind of output samples and frames in accordance with processing elements employed in the processing block. A plurality of output types is configured to initiate a session which determines connections between inputs and outputs so that the samples and the frames are received from the processing block in accordance with the session to appropriately direct the stream.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides shelf stable dairy-based compositions having a thick texture while also satisfying nutritional requirements for babies and young children and methods for producing the same. Methods of thickening dairy-based compositions are also provided. In a general embodiment, the present disclosure provides a method for producing a shelf stable dairy-based nutritional composition by providing a dairy-based composition and a specially formulated fruit or flavor preparation to create a thickened dairy-based nutritional composition having textures and nutritional components that are appealing to children.

Methods of thickening dairy based compositions are also provided. In a general embodiment, the present disclosure provides a method for producing a shelf stable dairy based nutritional composition by providing a dairy based composition and a specially formulated fruit or flavor preparation to create a thickened dairy based nutritional composition through direct acidification having textures and nutritional components that are appealing to children.

Abstract: A system for resource allocation in peer to peer streaming includes steps of: inferring global properties of a neighborhood made up of peer nodes, wherein the global properties are inferred from a summarization of information obtained locally at each peer node; allocating resources for each peer node to its neighbor nodes in accordance with propagated dependency information; and periodically updating the target rates as peer nodes join and leave the neighborhood.

Abstract: Exemplary illustrative embodiments provide for a method implemented in a service oriented architecture environment including a plurality of live services. The method includes composing, at runtime, a composed service by mapping a first parameter of a first subset of live services to a second parameter of a second subset of live services. The first subset and the second subset are part of the plurality of live services. The method can further include storing the composed service in a memory.

An application server intermediates a SIP message and a request for a RSS feed. An end device requests subscription of the RSS feed in a SIP message. The application server processes the SIP message, register the RSS feed, and tracks changes in the RSS feed over the Internet. The application server retrieves a web content linked to the RSS feed responsive to finding changes in the RSS feed. The application server stores update of the web content in a media cache. The end device subscribing the RSS feed fetches the web content from the media cache in later part of the subscription.

Abstract: A system and associated method for optimizing media data in signaling stream of a network system. A client subscribed for a presence service sends a signaling message embedding media data in an Extensible Markup Language file. An optimizer gateway in the network system intercepts the signaling message, extracts and keeps the media data, replaces the media data in the signaling message with a reference pointer to the media data, asynchronously processes the media data, retransmits the media data to another client subscribing to the presence service, or reinstate the media data from the reference pointer to the media data.
