Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for caching content that has been
customized based on one or more operating characteristics of a mobile client. A mobile
gateway receives content from a content source and customizes the content using transforms
assigned to each mobile client. Transforms account for differences between mobile clients
without imposing significant processing burdens on the content server. Copies of the
content, the transformed content, and a transform identifier are cached at the mobile
gateway so that subsequent requests for the content may be satisfied without requiring
access to the content source. Processing that is common among several transforms may be
shared. Mobile clients may be any type of computer.

Abstract: An audio/video processing engine uses a single programmable
hardware processor having reconfigurable logic blocks, such as a RAM-based
field programmable gate array, to process in real time both digital video and
digital audio received from respective video and audio I/O processors and
also to output the processed digital video and digital audio through the video
and audio I/O processors. The single programmable hardware processor
communicates with an optional digital signal processor and a general purpose
processor having a flash memory for adjunct processing. The general
purpose processor is remotely accessible for programming, control and
monitoring functions, and the flash memory provides boot up for the general
process processor as well as information for memory associated with the
programmable hardware processor and for the digital signal processor. The
flash memory also is accessible by the programmable hardware processor.
Concurrent processing of both video and audio may occur for such
applications as audio/video synchronization, and parallel processing of both
video and audio may occur for other test, measurement and monitoring
functions, all as determined by the contents of the flash memory which may
be reloaded remotely via the general purpose processor.
