Abstract: A content management system may assist users in managing consumption of content, such as television programs. Primary content may be segmented into portions, where a secondary content is interspersed between a first portion and a second portion of the primary content. The first portion and the second portion may be aggregated sequentially.

Abstract: Among other things, one or more rotating members of a radiation imaging modality, such as a CT system, are described herein. The rotating member may be configured to support at least one of a radiation source or a detector array and comprises at least one element configured to facilitate the transfer of power to the rotating member and at least one element configured to facilitate the transfer of information between the rotating member and a stator. The rotating member may also comprise one or more positioning elements that are formed within the rotating member and are configured to facilitate determining a rotation angle of the rotating member. The rotating member may further comprise, among other things, a bearing structure, antenna assembly for transferring image data, and/or a drive mechanism for facilitating rotation of the rotating member, for example.

Abstract: In a virtualized desktop system an interfacing module is coupled to peripheral ports of a target device. The interfacing module is connected to a network. A digital user station is connected to the network. The digital user station is configured to be coupled to peripherals. The interfacing module and digital user station use respective hardware engines to communicate via said network.

Abstract: A server computer that is connected over a network to one or more remote client computers includes specialized hardware for handling computationally-intensive signal processing operations involving video, audio, and/or other signals. As a result, users of the client computers experience little or no delay when accessing over the network applications that are hosted on the server.

Abstract: Systems and methods of controlling and optimizing system latency in order to minimize system latency between remotely operating computing devices over a communications network are disclosed. A method of controlling and optimizing latency over a computer network from a first computing device to a second computing device includes identifying a condition associated with the transmission of a video signal, receiving the video signal at a computing device, determining whether the condition is met after receiving the video signal, and displaying the video signal on a display device when the condition is met.

Abstract: A health care information provider system may provide information about health care objects managed by a health care provider. A name generating system may generate an object name for each of the health care objects which may include provider information indicative of the identity of the health care provider which manages the health care object, and object information indicative of the identity of the health care object. The object information may be devoid of any personal health information, even in a form which can be decrypted by a decryption key. A computer system appliance may protect the privacy of medical record information stored in a computer information storage system and may include a medical record distribution compartment, a medical record acquisition compartment, and a security compartment. The medical record distribution compartment and the medical record acquisition compartment may be configured to communicate with one another only thought the security compartment.

Abstract: In a virtualized desktop system, a digital user station communicates with an interfacing module coupled to a target device via a network. The digital user station controls the power of the target device and the interfacing module by determining the power status of the interfacing module and sending a power control packet to the target device the interfacing module is coupled to.

Abstract: An interfacing module connected to a network. A target network device connected to the network. An interfacing module is associated with a target network device. An interfacing module is coupled to a peripheral port of a target network device. Interfacing module identification data is stored in a memory portion of the target network device. The network address of the target network device is determined. The network address of the interfacing module is determined. At a remote location the network address of the target network device is used to read the interfacing module identification data from the memory portion of the target device via the network.
