  • Patent number: 7966399
    Abstract: A method for managing data transmission between computing devices is disclosed. In one embodiment, the method includes monitoring a plurality of parameters of a computer network that includes a server and a client. The plurality of parameters may include a client resource parameter, a server resource parameter, and a network operating parameter. The disclosed method may also include automatically determining a desired compression level at which to send data to the client based at least in part on the client resource parameter, the server resource parameter, and the network operating parameter. Further, in one embodiment the method may include communicating the data from the server to the client at the desired compression level in response to a client request for the data. Various other methods, systems, and manufactures are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 7139000
    Abstract: A method for displaying axial images that comprises receiving a reconstructed axial image. The reconstructed axial image includes a pre-selected number of completed reconstructed slices, a slice thickness and an interval value. A reformatted axial image is created in response to the reconstructed axial image. The creation of a reformatted axial image includes modifying the slice thickness in response to user slice thickness input and updating the interval value in response to user interval value input. The reformatted axial image is displayed in response to user display input.
