摘要： Costs associated with accessing the internet from a public terminal are borne by one or more sponsors. The terminal thus sponsored may, in exchange, be limited in the internet domains it is capable of browsing. If a user wishes to browse beyond the sponsored domains, a usage charge may be assessed. In other arrangements, web cards (like pre-paid phone cards) may be sold at retail establishments (or issued by libraries), to permit web browsing from compliant terminals. A variety of other arrangements are also detailed.

摘要： A method of segmenting a media signal for parallel watermarking operations sub-divides the media signal into segments, distributes the segments to parallel processors, and performs parallel digital watermark operations on the segments in the parallel processors. These parallel processors may comprise separate threads of execution on a processing unit, or several execution threads distributed to several processing units. In one enhancement, the method prioritizes the segments for watermarking operations. This enables finite processing resources to be allocated to segments in order of their priority. Further, processing resources are devoted to segments where the digital watermark is more likely to be imperceptible and/or readable. A system for distributed watermark embedding operations includes a watermark signal generator, a perceptual analyzer and a watermark applicator. The system supports operation-level parallelism in the concurrent operation of watermark embedder modules, and data parallelism in the concurrent operation of these modules on segments of a media signal to be embedded with an imperceptible digital watermark.
摘要翻译：对并行水印操作的媒体信号进行分割的方法将媒体信号分割成段，将段分配到并行处理器，并对并行处理器中的段执行并行数字水印操作。这些并行处理器可以包括处理单元上的单独的执行线程，或者分配给多个处理单元的几个执行线程。在一个增强中，该方法优先考虑用于水印操作的段。这使得有限的处理资源按照它们的优先级顺序被分配给段。此外，处理资源专用于数字水印更可能不可察觉和/或可读的段。用于分布式水印嵌入操作的系统包括水印信号发生器，感知分析器和水印施加器。该系统支持水印嵌入器模块并行操作中的操作级并行性，并且在这些模块的并行操作中将数据并行化到要嵌入不可察觉的数字水印的媒体信号的片段上。

摘要： A method of linking a content object with a network resource presents a content object to a reader, discerns an identifier associated with the content object, transfers the identifier to an indexing system, and in response receives an internet address corresponding to the content object. To enhance the response of the indexing system, it includes multiple routers, which it selects based on location relative to the reader. For example, the method sends user location data to a master system, and in response, receives an address of an indexing system close to the user location.

摘要： Technology is disclosed for associating content objects (e.g., paper documents, audio and video files, etc.) with corresponding information and/or action. One arrangement employs an architecture comprising a registration server, a router, and one or more product handlers. Identifiers for the content objects can be obtained in various ways, including decoding a digital watermark, deriving an identifier by hashing music data, sensing machine-readable data such as RFID or barcode data, etc. One particular method involves applying an algorithmic process to produce music- or video-content-identifying data; wirelessly sending the content-identifying data from the device in one or more packets including XML compliant data; and, as a consequence, receiving data back. By reference to this data, the receiving device presents information to a user that identifies a title of the content, and a performer of the content. Also presented are one or more features selectable by the user to obtain further information relating to the content, or different content. The technology is suitable for use with handheld devices, including cell phones and media players.

摘要： A watermark embedded in a content (e.g., a printed document, digital audio, etc.) includes data that associates the content with a remote store of related data. For example, an image watermark may contain an index value that identifies a database record specifying (a) the owner's name; (b) contact information; (c) license terms and conditions, (d) copyright date, (e) whether adult content is depicted, etc., etc. Or a magazine advertisement may contain an index value that identifies a database record specifying a related URL. Sometimes there are several back-and-forth exchanges between the decoding device and the database. To speed response time, it is desirable that this traffic be exchanged with a database that is located close—in network proximity—to the device that decodes the watermark. In one embodiment this is accomplished by first querying a master database with the zip code, or other identifier, of the decoding device. The first database then responds by identifying a second, nearby database with which further traffic should be exchanged.
摘要翻译：嵌入在内容（例如，打印文档，数字音频等）中的水印包括将内容与相关数据的远程存储相关联的数据。例如，图像水印可以包含标识指定（a）所有者名称的数据库记录的索引值; （b）联络资料; （c）许可条款和条件，（d）版权日期，（e）是否显示成人内容等。或者杂志广告可以包含标识指定相关URL的数据库记录的索引值。有时在解码设备和数据库之间有多次往返交换。为了加快响应时间，期望将该流量与位于靠近网络的数据库进行交换，该数据库邻近于解码水印的设备。在一个实施例中，这是通过首先用解码装置的邮政编码或其他标识符查询主数据库来实现的。然后，第一个数据库通过识别第二个附近的数据库进行响应，利用该数据库应交换进一步的流量。

摘要： The present invention relates to linking on-line data to printed documents, such as business cards, envelopes, stickers, stationary, letterhead, résumés, etc. In one embodiment, a card-user registers with an on-line database and receives a gallery item including a steganographically-embedded unique identifier. The gallery item, such as a graphical background, text, shading, graphic, etc., is integrated and then printed with a document. The printed document can then be presented an optical-scanner, which outputs data. The output data is decoded to identify the unique identifier. The unique identifier is then used to index into the on-line database to retrieve information related to the proprietor of the document. In one embodiment, the on-line database includes features such as providing an immediate contact number, translation and/or pronunciation ability, and storage of audio/video files.
