Appl. No.:

8/354625

Inventors:

Hans Hurvig - Kirkland WA
Thomas R. Reardon - Seattle WA

Assignee:

Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA

International Classification:

G06F 1730

US Classification:

395616

Abstract:

A method and system for providing a dual namespace client is disclosed. The present invention provides support and compatibility to a filesystem of a client which may have multiple local namespaces. In an embodiment of the present invention where the client is a node supported by a network server, the client, by communicating with and querying the network server, is able to direct the server to follow the client's rules governing appropriate filesystem operations. The integrity of the names of the files or entries stored on the network server are maintained without requiring any modifications to the structure or operation of the server itself.

International Classification:

G06F 1100

US Classification:

39518801

Abstract:

A method and system for adding a secured network server to an existing network for access by a client thereof, wherein the added server does not possess a database of authentication credentials. The client is first authenticated for access to the added server by passing authentication requests received from the client to an authenticating agent having a database of authentication credentials, which may include information from a bindery comprising users, groups and passwords. The responses from the authenticating agent are then evaluated, and if the response indicates validity, the client is the granted access to the added server. Database services are provided to the authenticated client by first evaluating database requests received from the client. Requests seeking information maintained by the authenticating agent are handled by passing the requests to the authenticating agent and using its response to reply to the client.

International Classification:

G06F 1300
G06F 1516

US Classification:

370389

Abstract:

A system and method for operating a network client machine to simultaneously utilize two protocol stacks which implement the same protocol. The system and method routes incoming packets of information into the appropriate protocol stack by prescanning the incoming packet and comparing a portion of the packet with a table in memory of sockets used for one of the two stacks. If a match exists with any entry in the table, the system and method routes the packet to the appropriate stack. If no match is found between the incoming packet and the table, the packet may then be offered to the second protocol stack. The unique socket numbers are selected by one of the protocol stacks while both stacks maintain a table of active sockets.

Assignee:

Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA

International Classification:

G06F 1700

US Classification:

707513

Abstract:

A section of text in an electronic document is marked with a tag that designates a list of font faces for use in drawing the text at a computer which is remotely browsing the electronic document from a computer network. A browser at the computer chooses a font face for drawing the text from the font faces installed on the computer according to the tag-designated list, such as by matching font face name or set of font face characteristics. The browser also can include an alternative font table which stores data identifying alternative font faces for many common font faces. The browser searches the installed font faces for the alternative font faces to those in the tag-designated list when a direct match to the tag-designated font faces is not found.

International Classification:

G06F 3/01
G06F 3/0487
G06F 3/02

Abstract:

Methods and apparatus for providing a dynamically-updated computerized musculo-skeletal representation comprising a plurality of rigid body segments connected by joints. The method comprises recording, using a plurality of autonomous sensors arranged on one or more wearable devices, a plurality of autonomous signals from a user, wherein the plurality of autonomous sensors include a plurality of neuromuscular sensors configured to record neuromuscular signals. The method further comprises providing as input to a trained statistical model, the plurality of neuromuscular signals and/or information based on the plurality of neuromuscular signals. The method further comprises determining, based on an output of the trained statistical model, musculo-skeletal position information describing a spatial relationship between two or more connected segments of the plurality of rigid body segments of the computerized musculo-skeletal representation, and updating the computerized musculo-skeletal representation based, at least in part, on the musculo-skeletal position information.

Abstract:

Computerized systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media storing code for implementing the methods are described for providing dynamically-updated musculoskeletal information. One such system includes a processor is programmed to: provide, as an input to a trained inference model, information based on a plurality of neuromuscular signals from a user and information based on at least one image of the user; determine, based on an output of the trained inference model, position information describing a spatial relationship between two or more connected musculoskeletal segments of the user and/or force information describing a force exerted by at least one musculoskeletal segment of the user; and output the position information and/or the force information.
