A process for video content analysis to enable productive surveillance, intelligence extraction, and timely investigations using large volumes of video data. The process for video analysis includes: automatic detection of key split and merge events from video streams typical of those found in area security and surveillance environments; and the efficient coding and insertion of necessary analysis metadata into the video streams. The process supports the analysis of both live and archived video from multiple streams for detecting and tracking the objects in a way to extract key split and merge behaviors to detect events. Information about the camera, scene, objects and events whether measured or inferred, are embedded in the video stream as metadata so the information will stay intact when the original video is edited, cut, and repurposed.

A TCP / IP-based software application client / server communication channel construction mechanism is presented. The mechanism constructs a dedicated bi-directional data transmission for a single client / server session. The server software, running on a server host computer, provides session-based data services to one or more software clients. The client process supports one or more execution environments including: text-based scripting, Java or ActiveX components. The invoked code executing within the client computer detects the most attractive execution environment available within its execution environments, and uses the services of that execution environment client process to establish an optimal communication channel back to the server software process. Depending on the execution environment(s) available to the invoked code, the communication channel may be: (a) a content-independent, bi-directional transmission control protocol (TCP) connection, or (b) a content-dependent TCP connection, such as a TCP connection supporting only a single HTTP request / response pair.

A method and system provides a requested memory to a requesting process. The memory is requested by a consumer process residing in application space. The consumer process requests the requested memory from a Very Large Memory (VLM) driver in the operating system. The size of the requested memory may be larger than the maximum size per process supported by the operating system. The VLM driver creates one or more donor processes residing in application space dependent on the size of the requested memory. Each donor process requests an allocation of a portion of memory less than the maximum size per process supported by the operating system. Having received the requested memory, the donor process transfers ownership of the portion of memory to the VLM driver. The VLM driver provides the requested memory provided by the donor processes to the consumer process.

The present invention provides an enablement and optimization system and method for web advertisement placement and pricing. The invention provides an open advertising network that incorporates both the advertisers and content publishers into the advertising decision process to create an open marketplace. Similar to a greedy algorithm in Computer Science, this model pushes the final advertising decision to the web servers that serve the actual content. Rather than an advertising network providing a single ad to show, the content publisher receives a selection of ads. Each publisher in the network then makes the local optimum choice by collecting data on the effectiveness of ads previously shown, and using this data to select which ad will perform the best. Similarly, the advertisers collect data on the visitors they receive from advertising, and use this information to optimize their bidding. With each endpoint selecting a local optimum, the network of advertisers and content publishers as a whole becomes more effective.
