  • Patent number: 8955093
    Abstract: A network system includes a security device and a network access device. The network access device is to receive a packet from a source node destined to a destination node, and to examine a data structure maintained by the network access device to determine whether the data structure stores a data member having a predetermined value, the data member indicating whether the packet should undergo security processing. If the data member matches the predetermined value, the packet is transmitted to a security device associated with the network access device to allow the security device to perform content inspection, and in response to a response received from the security device, the packet is routed to the destination node dependent upon the response. The packet is routed to the destination node without forwarding the packet to the security device.

  • Publication number: 20150030066
    Abstract: Presented systems and methods facilitate screen content coding. A system can comprises: a processing component configured to execute coding operations and a storage component configured to store information for the processing component, including the color table and color index map. The coding operations can include: receiving information associated with a plurality of pixels; creating a color table, the color table includes color values (e.g., of the pixels) and corresponding indices; creating a color index map wherein each index of the color map maps a pixel to an index value of the color table; and performing coding operations corresponding to the color table and color index map. In one exemplary implementation, index values of the color table are encoded/decoded during color table and index map coding rather than the actual raw color values for each pixel. Various types of compression and coding can be implemented (e.g., lossless, lossy, intra-prediction, inter-prediction, etc.).
