Abstract: Systems and methods for sharing previously-associated application data from a secure device can include a first device (e.g., a tablet computer) and a second device (e.g., a smartphone which can be a more secure device than the tablet computer) coupled to one another. The tablet computer can send a request to the smartphone for previously-associated input data associated with an application currently running on the tablet computer, an input field of the application, and an input entered in the input field of the application. The smartphone can transmit the previously-associated to the tablet computer. The previously-associated input data can include a browser history, frequently-visited websites, stored user credential data, auto-fill text data, or other previously-associated input data. As the previously-associated input data is stored on the smartphone (e.g., the more secure device), the likelihood of unauthorized access to the previously-associated input data can be reduced.

Inventor: NGUYEN NGUYEN
IPC: H04N7/30
Filed: 2013-01-07
Abstract: Methods of encoding and decoding for video data are described for encoding or decoding coefficients for a transform unit. In particular, the significant-coefficient flags for a coefficient group are encoded and decoded based upon a context determination, and the context is determined based upon the values of neighboring flags. The neighborhood used to determine the context varies depending on whether the significant-coefficient flag to be encoded or decoded is in the right column or bottom row of the coefficient group or not. If it is in the right column or bottom row one of the alternative context neighborhoods is used to avoid relying on significant-coefficient flags in other coefficient groups except for the flags immediately adjacent the right border and bottom border of the coefficient group, and the flag diagonally to the lower-right.
