Abstract: A system and method for facilitating changing a link generated by a script provided in proxied content. The example method includes identifying a link-producing script in proxied content; applying a wrapper function to the link-producing script; and employing the wrapper function to rewrite one or more links output by the link-producing script. In a specific embodiment, the proxied content includes Hypertext Transfer Protocol Language (HTML) markup. The link-producing script is implemented via JavaScript, and one or more links output via the link-producing script includes one or more Uniform Resource Locators (URLs).

Abstract: A media delivery system and technique are described to enable a media stream to be received at one end on a user's computer, and then re-streamed to a target device in a form that is suitable for that target. As an example of an implementation of such an embodiment, a streaming video and/or audio feed may be received on a user's media center, then re-streamed to a user's designated target device. The target device may correspond to, for example, another computer, a cell phone, or some other media output device.

Abstract: A method by which one node can search for and retrieve information from another node. A message identifying the sought-for information item and an address is created at a first node. The address identifies a repository for the sought-for information. A second node receives the contents of this message and responds with the information item if the item is available. Otherwise, the second node propagates the message to other nodes. The message is propagated from node to node until it reaches a node having the sought-for information item. If this node can connect to the specified address, it sends the information item to the repository. Otherwise, the node adds the information item to the message, which is propagated to other nodes until the message reaches a node that can connect with the address. The information item can then be retrieved from the repository.

Abstract: A distributed surveillance system comprises a plurality of nodes including sensors for monitoring areas, and a network connecting the plurality of nodes. A node is operable to detect an object in one of the monitoring areas and transmit a tracking message to other nodes in the system via the network. The tracking message identifies the detected object.
