Technical Examples
  1. A method for enabling seamless transitions for a cinema presentation package, wherein the cinema presentation package includes pre-shows, trailers, live events, and main features, the steps include determining the requirements of specific protocols corresponding to the cinema presentation that will affect transitioning between the pre-shows, trailers, live events, and main features. Transition behaviors have to be identified between the pre-shows, trailers, live events, and main features that form the cinema presentation package. Flexibility exists in displaying the cinema presentation package, and yet the pre-shows, trailers, live events, and main features are displayed according to the specific protocols and transition rules associated with the specific protocols.
  2. A method and system for determining the memory utilization of a heap are provided. With the method and system, object allocations and optionally, possible memory freeing events are used to initiate a mark-and-count operation. The mark-and-count operation marks the live objects and maintains a running count of their memory bytes allocated to the live objects, referred to as a live count. The execution of the mark-and-count operation may be dependent upon various criteria including thresholds, functions of the live count, peak live counts, number of memory bytes allocated since a previous mark-and-count operation was performed, and the like. In addition to the live count, a peak live count may be obtained and updated as new peak live counts are identified. When the peak live count is updated, additional information may be obtained via a heap dump, arcflow tree, or the like.
  3. There are provided a heap memory management method that not only improves processing performance of an application program but also reduces a program development cost and a computer system using the same method. A live object copy process in minor collection of generational garbage collection is implemented through a calculate process of object live ratio, a compare process of object live ratio, and a live object copy process. The calculate process of object live ratio calculates a ratio of a size of a memory allocated to live objects of new objects to a size of a memory allocated to a new object during minor collection. The compare process of object live ratio compares a calculated object live ratio with a predetermined threshold. The live object copy process copies a live object directly to an old-generation heap instead of a new-generation heap when the object live ratio exceeds the threshold as a result of comparison. Further, an application programmer provides means for setting the threshold that decides a copy destination of the live object as a runtime parameter of a program and means for holding the set threshold in a memory.
  4. The invention concerns a computerized method of invalidating set-top box events. The method may include monitoring set-top box events, storing the set-top box events in a first array, calculating a first trend in the first array of set-top box events, invalidating the set-top box events which are one or more statistical outliers from the first trend, storing the invalidated set-top box events in a second array, and calculating a second trend in the second array of invaidated set-top box events, wherein invalidated set-top box events are revalidated and new set-top box event categories to be ignored are identified based on the second trend.
  5. A parimutuel betting game based on events unfolding during a live sporting event, a principal objective being to acquire the largest number of betting tokens by the end of the sporting event. An administrator conducts a plurality of betting events based on events occurring during the sporting event. One or more betting lines are opened in each betting event. Players are allowed to bet tokens on an open betting line until it is closed by the administrator. Once a line is closed, a new line opens within the betting event. When a termination event occurs in the sporting event for a given betting event, the betting event is terminated and all lines are paid off in parimutuel style. Payoffs are preferably made in hierarchical manner, such that players placing riskier bets in a betting line receive a higher parimutuel style payoff. The game may be played over the Internet.
