  • Publication number: 20220368840
    Abstract: In an answer view, a first video segment is selected based on a first natural language input and displayed in a main display region, and a self-video image of a user is displayed in a peripheral display region having a smaller area than the main display region. To transition from the answer view to a question view, the self-video image is enlarged to replace the first video segment in the main display region. A second natural language input is received. To transition from the question view to the answer view, the self-video image is reduced to occupy the peripheral display region and the self-video image is replaced in the main display region with a second video segment selected based on the second natural language input. The video segments are pre-recorded video response segments spoken by the same person. Enlarging the self-video image masks the transition between the video segments.

  • Patent number: 10715334
    Abstract: Various embodiments include one or more of systems, methods, software, and data structures for validating a digital signature, wherein common information in a certification chain is maintained in one entry of a Document Secure Store (DSS). The DSS separates the Long Term Validation (LTV) information from the digital signature, allowing amendment of and addition to the LTV information in the DSS after a digital signature is applied to a document.

  • Patent number: 8954731
    Abstract: A method and apparatus are presented to perform a distributive computation of a digital signature in a document signing process. A signing request from a remote device initiates the document signing process including the distributive computation. The server verifies digital certificates corresponding to a signer's public key. An encryption request including a set of authenticated attributes and a hash value based on the to-be-signed content is transmitted to the remote device. A signer at the remote device encrypts the hash value in the encryption request with an encryption process utilizing a private key. The resulting encrypted hash value is transmitted to the server to produce the digital signature used to sign the subject content. This distributive computation process minimizes the amount of data transmitted between devices, while minimizing remote device resource requirements, and maintains the integrity of the signer's private key during generation of the digital signature.

  • Publication number: 20140165920
    Abstract: Disclosed is a no-drip water bowl comprised of a bowl and a removably attached lid having a drinking aperture lined with inwardly-facing, soft bristles. The bristles wipe water and drool from the snout of a drinking animal as it withdraws its snout from the drinking aperture. This prevents the animal from dripping liquid onto the floor around the bowl, which at a minimum requires effort to clean up and potentially could lead to injuries from slip-and-fall accidents or the flooring having to be replaced because of water damage.

  • Patent number: 8683605
    Abstract: Long-Term Validation (LTV) of a digital signature status indicator is disclosed. In some embodiments, the Long-Term Validation of a digital signature status indicator includes automatically determining whether a digital signature of a digitally signed document is LTV enabled based at least in part on LTV information; and generating an LTV status indicator that displays whether the digital signature of the digitally signed document is LTV enabled.

  • Patent number: 8244692
    Abstract: Various embodiments described herein provide systems, methods, software, and data structures that allow a page description language reader application, such as ADOBE® ACROBAT®, to provide a view of the assets compressed within a compressed archive. These and other embodiments including applications that may interleave one or more compressed archives within a page description language file, such as a PDF file. This interleaving leverages properties of both compressed archive files and page description language files to insert object markers around compressed assets within the compressed archives and references to at least some of the object markers in an index portion of the page description language files. As a result, compressed assets of compressed archives included in a page description language file package may be viewed within the listing of assets of the page description language file. These and other embodiments are described in greater detail below.

  • Publication number: 20120147560
    Abstract: An open frame chassis has a top opening and a bottom opening permitting ambient airflow. A plurality of modules, each enclosing electrical components in thermal contact with a heat sink area of their corresponding module, can each be inserted in the chassis. Ambient air may flow from the bottom opening across the heat sink area of each module to the top opening to passively cool the modules and electrical components. Key pins guide the modules into place and prevent incorrect insertion of a different type of electrical module not corresponding to the electrical connection of the chassis for that slot. Guide pins on corners of the modules mate with guide holes in the chassis to secure the module to the chassis and decrease vibration. Both sides of the chassis have side openings through which the fins of the modules in the end slots of the chassis may be exposed.

  • Patent number: 7882089
    Abstract: Embodiments for caching database information are disclosed. A query may specify a set of information to be retrieved from a database file. The database file may be parsed according to the query to retrieve the set of information. The query and the corresponding set of information retrieved from the database file may be stored in a cache file. The cache file may be searched for the query, which may enable the set of information to be retrieved from the cache file. Searching the cache file and retrieving the set of information from the cache file may be faster than searching the database file to retrieve the set of information. The cache file may be associated with a currency token which may indicate whether the cache file is current. The currency token may indicate whether the database file has been updated since being parsed according to the query.
