Discovery and Exploitation in Search and Aggregation”
Researchers
at Hewlett Packard (HP) India laboratories are working on
a project called 'The Paper in the Digital Enterprise' (PriDE)
Document Authentication System (DAS) which helps identify
whether a particular paper document is authentic or not. To
check the authenticity of documents, DAS generates 2D barcodes
that can be affixed to the document and stores security information
related to the document. DAS has relevance in e-governance
initiatives since issue of documents now is slow due to the
need for physical signatures. This can be used to remotely
issue documents.
InkML Toolkit from HP Labs India has been released
into open source and is now available from SourceForge at
http://inkmltk.sourceforge.net/.
InkML Toolkit is the first publicly available implementation
of W3C's InkML draft specification for representation of digital
ink. The toolkit includes InkML processor libraries implementing
the W3C specification, tools such as converters (to and from
other ink and image formats), InkML viewers including browser
plug-ins, and InkML applications such as a graphical editor.
As part
of a worldwide call for proposals, the HP Labs Open Innovation
Office(OIO) obtained proposals from Universities for research
projects relevant to HP Labs. The following projects in collaboration
with HP Labs India have been awarded:
