Title: System and method for end-to-end electronic mail encryption
Inventor: YAGHMOUR KARIM
IPC: H04L9/14
Filed: 2006-12-19
Abstract: The present disclosure provides a system and method for end-to-end electronic mail encryption. In one embodiment, the sender contacts a payload-encryption-packet creation server which receives the message the sender would like to encrypt, generates an encrypted message and a payload-encryption-packet, and returns both to the sender. The sender then uses his regular email infrastructure to transmit to the recipient the encrypted message and the payload-encryption-packet as a single email. Upon receiving the sender's email, the recipient contacts a payload-encryption-packet processing server and sends it the payload-encryption-packet and authorization information. Depending on the validity of the authorization information, said server processes the payload-encryption-packet and provides the recipient with information usable for extracting the original message from the encrypted message.

Abstract: Methods, systems, devices and computer program products operable in a computer graphics system include constructing a hierarchical ray tracing acceleration data structure comprising a tree structure, the nodes of which are generated utilizing a bounding interval hierarchy based on defining an axis-aligned scene bounding box and two parallel planes to partition a set of objects in a scene into left objects and right objects, and matching split planes to object bounding boxes. The two planes are perpendicular to a selected one of x, y, or z-axes. Given a splitting plane, each object in an image is classified either left or tight based on a left/right selection criterion, and two splitting plane values of the child nodes are determined by the maximum and minimum coordinate of the left and right objects, respectively.
