A dynamic toolbar operates in conjunction with a web server for presenting links associated with a website requested by a web surfer at a client computer. The web server receives a source URL of a source website requested by the web surfer and compiles a directory of URLs of related websites that may be of interest to the web surfer for selecting therefrom a subset of URLs according to their popularity. Data representative of the subset is uploaded to the client computer for displaying by a web browser thereof. The subset of URLs is selected by accessing the directory to determine a category to which the source URL belongs and extracting from the directory respective URLs of related websites of the category. A Popularity Index is determined by an actual count of redirections from the URL of the source website to the respective URLs of the related websites.

A non-volatile flash memory system counts the occurrences of an event, such as the number of times that individual blocks have been erased and rewritten, by updating a compressed count only once for the occurrence of a large number of such events. Complementary embodiments include updating the compressed count based upon a random number or upon the actual count matching a multiple of the fixed number. These techniques also have application to monitoring other types of recurring events in flash memory systems or in other types of electronic systems. In another aspect of the present invention, provisions are made to maintain an accurate experience count if the memory system experiences an improper shutdown, for example in case of power loss or removal of a memory card.

A method is for operation of a counting radiation detector, in particular of a counting X-ray detector, with improved linearity, in which each detector element of the counting radiation detector supplies counting pulses at counting rates as a function of a number of radiation quanta which occur per unit time during operation. In the method, the counting rates which are supplied from each detector element or from subsections of the detector element are converted via a functional relationship to actual counting rates or are multiplied by correction factors which are dependent on the magnitude of the counting rates. The correction factors are determined in advance for the respective detector element or for the subsections of it, and any discrepancy (which occurs as a result of a dead time of the detector element, for example) in the counting rates is corrected from the actual number of radiation quanta which arrive per unit time. The method allows the linearity of counting radiation detectors to be improved, particularly at high radiation intensities, so that the linearity condition for X-ray CT systems is also satisfied.

One or more techniques are provided for programming a flash memory device. In one embodiment, the memory device is programmed such that a data pattern written to a page in the memory device has encoded therein an expected count value corresponding to the number of times a first binary value occurs in the data pattern. The data pattern includes the program data and the expected count value, and is written to the page in a single operation. The expected count value may be stored in a count field in the management area of the page. During a page read operation, the expected count value is compared to the actual count of the number of bits having the first binary value in the data area of the page. If the expected count is equal to the actual count, then the program data is determined to be valid.

Described is a technology by which a probability is estimated for a token in a sequence of tokens based upon a number of zero or more times (actual counts) that the sequence was observed in training data. The token may be a word in a word sequence, and the estimated probability may be used in a statistical language model. A discount parameter is set independently of interpolation parameters. If the sequence was observed at least once in the training data, a discount probability and an interpolation probability are computed and summed to provide the estimated probability. If the sequence was not observed, the probability is estimated by computing a backoff probability. Also described are various ways to obtain the discount parameter and interpolation parameters.

A method and apparatus for accurately calculating packet loss along a communication channel using data in a pair of measuring packets is disclosed. The invention calculates packet loss between a first and second node over a communication circuit. A first known quantity of packets is communicated from the first node to the second node at a first known time. A first actual count of packets received by the second node from the first known quantity of packets is then determined. A second known quantity of packets is then communicated from the first node to the second node at a second known time. A second actual count of packets received by the second node from the second known quantity of packets is then determined. The difference between the first known quantity of packets communicated at the first known time and the second known quantity of packets communicated at the second known time is calculated to obtain a value for “packets sent”. The difference between the first actual count of packets received and the second actual count of packets received is calculated to obtain a value for “packets received”. The difference between the packets sent and the packets received provides a value for “packet loss” between the first known time and second known time.

There is broadly contemplated herein an arrangement whereby each event source feeds a small dedicated “pre-counter” while an actual count is kept in a 64-bit wide RAM. Such an implementation preferably may involve a state machine that simply sweeps through the pre-counters, in a predetermined fixed order. Preferably, the state machine will access each pre-counter, add the value from the pre-counter to a corresponding RAM location, and then clear the pre-counter. Accordingly, the pre-counters merely have to be wide enough such that even at a maximal event rate, the pre-counter will not be able to wrap (i.e., reach capacity or overflow) before the “sweeper” state machine accesses the pre-counter.
