Filed: 2002-07-29
Abstract: An integrated circuit includes an engine interface, a
chip set interface, and a data floe controller. The engine
interface interfaces with an engine which includes a
scanner and a plotter. The chip set interface interfaces
with a chip set of a CPU. The data flow controller selects
one of first, second, and third data flows. In the first
data flow, scanner image data scanned by the scanner and
which is input through the engine interface is output as
plotter data to the engine interface. In the second data
flow, the scanner image data is output to the chip set
interface. In the third data flow, image data input
through the chip set interface is output as plotter data to
the engine interface.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing purchase incentives to printing device replaceable component customers (302), the purchase incentives being based on a printing device usage rate for the customer. A replaceable component vendor (300) maintains a page count (510) over a time period for each replaceable component customer (302). A printing device usage rate is calculated from these values. When a new replaceable component (200) is ordered, a vendor system (104) calculates the printing device usage for the customer (302) and refers to a pricing table (600) to determine the price. When a replaceable component (200) with component memory (206) is returned to vendor (300), a page count is read from the component memory (206) and is added to the page count for the customer (302) for use in determining a price discount.

Abstract: The method and process for producing youthful appearing, small-pored, and smooth skin comprises pretreating the skin topically with retinoic acid, applying a contaminate in oil to the skin, and removing the contaminate by exploding or rupturing it with laser light. When treating the face, removing the contaminate requires only about 4 minutes. The laser light itself does not injure the skin but the rupture of the contaminant produces thermal injury in the high dermis leaving the epidermis intact. Repeated intermittent laser treatments and applications of topical retinoic acid produces the desired results in the skin indefinitely as long as the treatments and applications are continued.

Abstract: The present invention provides an apparatus for performing inverse
quantization for multiple decoding standards, where the functional operations that
comprise the inverse quantizer are modularly implemented and can be selectably
performed. Each operation can be represented via a table entry in an associated
memory area, with the functional operation being performed via reference to that
table entry. Functional operations can be bypassed as needed if inverse quantization
does not need to be performed on a set of data. Certain other processing operations
can be performed between steps as needed to accommodate different coding
standards. Macroblock data can be read from and written back to a common storage
area, or a direct path is provided for writing the data directly to a subsequent inverse
transform device.

Abstract: Items of media information are stored in separately reusable blocks of memory. Items are split into a plurality of layers, so that the item can be represented at reduced quality by a subset of the layers without using a remainder of the layers. Each layer is stored in a respective one of the blocks. When information of a subsequent item is stored, a block for storing the information of the second item dependent on a number of blocks that is in use for storing information. An unused block is selected when the number of blocks that is in use is below a threshold number. When the number is above the threshold number a block is re-used that was previously used for storing a layer from said remainder. Preferably, when the layers are encrypted, different layers of the first item are encrypted independently of one another, so that each layer can be decrypted even if the remainder has been overwritten.
