Abstract: A system and a method use an application on a mobile device to transfer internet media content to a rendering device in a home network. The application may use an HTML rendering engine to display a web page to a user of the mobile device, and the web page may have controls for accessing the internet media content. The application may receive a user interaction signal which may indicate that a user invoked one of the controls for accessing the internet media content. In response, the application may initiate transfer of the internet media content to the rendering device in the home network and/or may queue the internet media content for later playback using the rendering device.

Abstract: A system and a method transmit data in a first codec from a first terminal to a second terminal. The first terminal establishes a connection with the second terminal and/or transmits, transfers and/or sends the data to the second terminal via the connection between the first terminal and the second terminal. The connection between the first terminal and the second terminal has a first channel and/or a second channel to transmit the data from the first terminal to the second terminal. The first terminal transmits the data in a first codec to the second terminal via the first channel and/or the second channel of the connection without receiving capabilities of and/or intentions from the second terminal. The second terminal may be incapable of receiving, of processing, of accepting and/or of displaying the data in the first codec. The capabilities of and/or the intentions from the second terminal is transmitted to the first terminal via the connection.

Abstract: A system and a method render internet multimedia content in a network using an application to render the internet multimedia content and/or locally stored multimedia content on one or more rendering devices in the network. The application may provide web browser functions, such as, for example, receiving, processing, decoding and/or rendering the internet multimedia content. The application may have an enhanced user interface which may enable a user to select the internet multimedia content and a rendering device in the network, send the internet multimedia content to the rendering device and/or control rendering of the internet multimedia content on the rendering device.

Abstract: A system and method for determining family relationships between related individuals for use on electronic medical records (EMRs) in which a first person may provide identifiers of self and/or family members to be associated with the EMR of the first person and a second person may give permission so that information from the EMR of the second person may be shared with the EMR of the first person based on a family relationship, whereby EMR record systems may communicate with each other and/or with an external database in order to determine the family relationships and to determine what information may be shared based on the determined family relationships and permissions.

Abstract: A system for and method of facilitating collaboration among medical and healthcare professionals that includes presenting a request for initiating an electronic discussion via a communication network, enabling medical or healthcare professionals to participate in the discussion and to view medical record data germane to the discussion, depersonalizing the medical record data made available to the medical and healthcare professionals to remove any patient-identifying data, and categorizing and tagging discrete medical terms contained in the medical record data to enable association of the electronic medical discussion with an area of expertise of the medical or healthcare professionals.

Abstract: A system and a method embed multimedia controls and indications in a webpage which may provide access to internet media content. The multimedia controls and indications embedded in the webpage may be accessible using a standard web browser and may enable a user of the standard web browser to invoke enhanced media functions for internet media content available through the webpage. The enhanced browser functions may include redirection of the internet media content to a rendering device in a home network, and the rendering device may be a different device than the browser terminal. The enhanced browser functions may include downloading the internet media content to a media server or other local storage device in the network, and the media server and the other local storage device may each be a different device than the browser terminal.

Abstract: A system and a method provide an inter-application communication framework. A first application executed on a first device may establish communication and/or interaction with a second application executed by a second device and compatible with the first application. The first device may be connected to the second device by a network which enables the communication between the first application and the second application. The first device may support different application frameworks relative to the second device, and the first application and the second application may exist in different application frameworks. The first device may query an application knowledge repository to determine one or more compatible applications which exist in an application framework supported by the second device. In response, the first device may obtain identifiers which may identify the compatible applications in the application framework supported by the second device.
