Abstract: A method and system for separating hypertext transfer protocol session. The method includes: detecting at the client a condition that a server is to be requested to instantiate same application during same hypertext transfer protocol session; obtaining from the server another hypertext transfer protocol session identifier corresponding to a service instance to be instantiated and setting the hypertext transfer protocol session identifier in the current session as a hypertext transfer protocol session identifier corresponding to a service instance that is to communicate with the server. The system includes: a session manager configured to detect a condition that a server will be requested to instantiate an application during a current HTTP session and a session agent configured to: (i) obtain from the server a second HTTP session identifier and (ii) set the second HTTP session identifier in the current session as a HTTP session identifier.

Abstract: A management system for re-displaying characters on the terminal and re-displaying method thereof are disclosed. The management system includes a buffer having first buffer and a second buffer, a first switch, a second switch, and a control unit. The first buffer stores a plurality of characters constituting an image shown on a display of the terminal if the terminal is switched from the first computing device to the second computing device or if the second switch selects one of a first buffer set and a second buffer set. The second buffer stores a plurality of attributes constituting the image shown on the display of the terminal if the terminal is switched from the first computing device to the second computing device, or if the second switch selects one of a first buffer set and a second buffer set. The first switch couples one of the first computing device and the second computing device to the first buffer and the second buffer.

Abstract: A management system for converting commands in the terminal types and method thereof are disclosed. The management system couples a computing device, having a first terminal type, to a terminal. The management system includes a detecting unit, a conversion table, and a converting unit. The detecting unit of the management system detects whether the terminal has a second terminal type. The conversion table constitutes a conversion relationship between a first set of commands in the first terminal type and a second set of commands in the second terminal type correspondingly. The converting unit, in response to the detecting unit, converts the first set of commands in the first terminal type from the computing device into the second set of commands in the second terminal type according to the conversion table if the first set of commands in the first terminal type is unreadable for the terminal. Thus, the computing device controls the terminal to display correctly.

Abstract: In general, one embodiment of the invention involves a method to protect the integrity of the sign mask. The method involves computing a key shared by a plurality of software modules employed within an image display device and encrypting a sign mask with the shared key. The sign mask is used for scrambling a bit stream prior to its transmission along with the encrypted sign mask. The encrypted sign mask is decrypted at the destination in order to descramble the scrambled bit stream.

Abstract: A polarizer has an inner protection layer, an outer protection layer and a polarizing layer. A material of the inner protection layer comprises a blended cyclic olefin copolymer (COC), of which a blending ratio of cycloalkene monomer to ethylene determines the mechanical properties of the inner protection layer. The polarizing layer is positioned between the inner protection layer and the outer protection layer.
