Multiple visual perspectives in video of private and public activities including those in public areas such as entertainment venues captured by cameras located near the activities can be transmitted over data networks to a server where video-related data is processed and recorded for selective display by authorized, remote video display devices (e.g., HDTV, set-top boxes, computers, handheld devices) in wired/wireless communication with the server. Users can be registered and authorized to access the server to provide/access video captured by cameras at activities. Wireless handheld devices can selectively retrieve video-related data captured at activities for server storage and subsequent display by video display devices. Captured video/pictures can be organized in a server based on at least one of: activity title, activity time, activity date, activity place, wireless handheld device location at time of video recording, distance from location of interest. Simultaneous display of multiple videos on a display can be synchronized.

Described herein is a method and system for preventing Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. An intermediary device is deployed between clients and servers. The device receives a first packet of an application layer transaction via a transport layer connection between the device and client. The device records a last activity time for the transport layer connection based upon the timestamp of the first packet. The device receives subsequent data packets and determines whether the data in the packets completes a protocol data structure of the application layer protocol. If the device determines that the subsequent packet completes the protocol data structure, the last activity time is updated. If the device determines that the application layer protocol remains incomplete, the device retains the last activity time and determines that the duration of inactivity for the transport layer connection exceeds a predetermined threshold. The device may subsequently drop the connection.

A storage device, such as a hard disk drive or solid state drive, reduces energy consumption by entering a reduced power state after an inactivity time where the inactivity time is set based upon I/O commands received at the storage device. For example, where commands received at a storage device are characterized in a predetermined way in terms of read commands, such as a last received command as a read command or a ratio of read commands versus write commands, a first inactivity time is applied, while commands characterized in a predetermined way in terms of write commands have a second inactivity time applied. Using a greater inactivity time during read activities than during write activities provides improved performance with reduced power consumption.

A method and apparatus for improved modeling of random or stochastic systems such as financial markets and instruments. The Black-Scholes model for the price of a risky asset is replaced by an improved model which uses a fractal activity time process instead of a conventional time parameter. The new model is incorporated into an algorithm for analyzing empirical data in order to determine whether an observed random process exhibits multifractal or single fractal behavior. If the algorithm finds multifractal or single fractal behavior, the new model can be used, thereby providing improved accuracy over the Black-Scholes model. The algorithm can be implemented as an interactive procedure using a standard computer hardware and software platform operating under the control of suitable software for implementing the computing steps of the disclosed algorithm.

The invention provides a method for processing conflict between the discontinuous receiving and the measurement clearance. If the measurement clearance exists in the discontinuous receiving of DRX activity time, a terminal does not monitor the physical downlink control channel PDCCH in a time range that the DRX activity time and the measurement clearance are overlapped. The invention also providesa method for processing conflict between the discontinuous receiving and the measurement clearance. When a contention resolution timer runs, the terminal cancels the measurement clearance if the measurement clearance exists. The invention provides a particular scheme for conflict between the measurement clearance and the DRX activity time, namely the PDCCH cannot be monitored in the time range that the DRX activity time and the measurement clearance are overlapped so as to solve the conflict existing in the current 3GPP protocol under the condition and make the priority relation of the DRX and the measurement clearance definite.
