Abstract: Embodiments provide an indoor position system that can be used by an mobile device (legacy or non-legacy) without changes at the mobile device. In an embodiment, to use the indoor position system, a user of the mobile device downloads an application to the mobile device, which interfaces with the mobile device's existing wireless radio technology circuitry or module (e.g., WLAN chip) to obtain the position of the mobile device. In one embodiment, the indoor position system includes a plurality of wireless anchors with known positions that are each configured to receive a packet transmitted by the mobile device, time-stamp the packet per the arrival time of the packet, and forward the time-stamped packet to a pre-defined site. At the pre-defined site, the position of the mobile device is computed and sent to the application running on the mobile device.

Abstract: Work is distributed amongst a plurality of nodes. A first plurality of tasks is extracted, where the number of tasks is selected in correspondence to the number of nodes, and where sizes of the tasks are sized based on a job load metric. The first plurality of tasks is distributed. A determination is made whether a time difference between a response from a node that is first to complete its task and a response from a node that is last to complete its task exceeds a predefined threshold. In response to a determination that the time difference exceeds the predefined threshold, the job load metric is adjusted. A second plurality of tasks is extracted, where the number of tasks is selected in correspondence to the number of nodes, and wherein sizes of the tasks are sized based on the adjusted job load metric. The second plurality of tasks is distributed.

Abstract: Image data which includes a feature is labeled. The image data is comprised of pixel data in an N×M array. At least one pixel is designated and flagged. Asynchronous processes are executed, where each process corresponds to exactly one pixel. Each process sets a flag only for the owner pixel and only if a connected neighbor pixel in the pre-defined path is flagged. Each process inspects pixel data for all neighbor pixels of the owner pixel to determine if a neighbor pixel is a connected pixel and if the neighbor pixel is flagged, and continues until it sets the flag for the owner pixel or until all connected horizontal and vertical neighbor pixels have been inspected without encountering a connected neighbor pixel whose flag is set. The asynchronous processes are repeated until a pre-defined condition has been satisfied. All flagged pixels are labeled.

Abstract: Transmission of a medical image such as a DICOM-formatted image which is formatted into a plurality of data sets including a data set for the image data and a data set for embedded information which identifies the nature of the medical image. A region of interest in the medical image is identified automatically by using the embedded information. Image data for the region of interest is transmitted, and image data for a region other than the region of interest is transmitted. Transmission of the image data for the entirety of the region of interest is completed before transmission of the image data for the entirety of the region other than the region of interest.
