A method of designing a low power circuit that implements specified functionality, the method including: analyzing code for an algorithmic description of the specified functionality to generate a design representation of the circuit at the algorithmic level; instrumenting the code for the algorithmic description so as to capture data streams during execution / simulation of the algorithmic description; executing / simulating the instrumented code to generate an activity profile for the algorithmic description, wherein said activity profile includes at least portions of data traces of at least a portion of the executed algorithmic description; using the design representation to generate an initial hardware design that is an estimate of hardware resources necessary to implement at least some of the specified functionality; and computing power consumption for the initial hardware design based on the activity profile and power models for the hardware resources.

The present invention discloses a method, system, and computer program product for determining user interest in media. The invention can select one of a set of different activity profiles specified within a data store. Each activity profile can include biometric attributes and associated baseline attribute values specific to an activity state. A media stream can be manipulated (e.g., created from environmental inputs and / or played upon a presentation device). Biometric data can be received from a user in proximity to the media stream. The received biometric data can be compared values in the selected activity profile. An interest level in the media stream can be determined based on comparison differences. A programmatic action can be performed relating to the media stream based upon the determined interest level. For example, a bitrate of the media and / or a marker in the media can be modified based on interest level.

A method, radio frequency ID reader, and wireless communication device monitor radio-frequency identification enabled items associated with a group activity. The method includes receiving a set of radio frequency IDs representing a set of radio frequency ID enabled items (110) to be monitored. The set of radio frequency enabled items (110) are associated with at least one group activity. Each radio frequency ID enabled item (110) is determined to be associated with one of an individual and a group of individuals. The method also includes determining if at least one condition associated with the group activity has occurred indicating that the group activity is occurring (1004). The set of radio frequency IDs representing the set of radio frequency ID enabled items (110) is monitored for in response to determining that the at least one condition is occurring.

The compounds of the subject invention are adjuvant molecules that comprise a imidazoquinoline molecule covalently linked to a phospho- or phosphonolipid group. The compounds of the invention have been shown to be inducers of interferon-a, IL-12 and other immunostimulatory cytokines and possess an improved activity profile in comparison to known cytokine inducers when used as adjuvants for vaccine antigens.

A residential monitoring system incorporates both physiological sensors and activity sensors. Some of the sensors can be in wireless communication with control circuitry. One or more activity profiles can be established for a resident to expand upon and supplement information from the physiological sensors.
