`
`and listings, of claims in the application:
`
`Claims 1-27 (canceled)
`
`(New): A method for associating an electronic
`Claim 28
`work with an action, the electronic work compris:.ng at
`least one of audio and video, the method compris .. ng:
`a) electronically extracting within a portable
`client device features from the electronic work;
`b) transmitting the extracted features from the
`portable client device to one or more servers;
`c) receiving at the portable client device ~ram the
`one or more servers an identification of the ele:::tronic
`work based on the extracted features, wherein th0
`identification is based on a non-exhaustive sear:::h
`identifying a neighbor;
`d) electronically determining an action bas~d on the
`identification of the electronic work; and
`e) electronically performing the action on the
`portable client device.

`
`This listing of claims will replace all prior versions,
`and listings, of claims in the application:
`
`l Claim 1 (original): A computer-implemented method for
`2
`associating extra work information with an identification
`3
`of a work, the method comprising:
`4
`a) accepting a work and extra-work information
`5
`associated with the work;
`6
`b)
`identifying the work as one of a predetermined
`7
`number of known works, each of the predetermined
`8
`number of known works having an identifier; and
`9
`c) associating the identifier of the one of the
`predetermined number of known works with the
`10
`extra-work information.
`
`11
`
`1 Claim 2 (original}: The computer-implemented method of
`2
`claim 1 wherein the extra-work information includes at
`3
`least one of (A} a channel over which the work is or was
`4
`broadcast,
`(B) a station which broadcast the work, {C) a
`time that the work broadcast is or was received,
`(D) a time
`5
`6
`that the work is or was broadcast, and (E) a geographic
`7
`region in which the work is or was broadcast.
`
`1 Claim 3 (original): The computer-implemented method of
`2
`claim 1 wherein the act of associating the identifier of
`3
`the one of the predetermined number of known works with the
`4
`extra-work information uses a monitoring of the works and
`5 uses a comparison technique selected from a group
`6
`consisting of (A) linear correlation, (B) statistical
`7
`correlation, (C) mutual information,
`(D) Euclidean
`8 distance,
`(E) Lp-norms,
`(F) clustering, (G) kd-trees,

`d)
`storing the associated the identifier of the one
`4
`of the predetermined number of known works and the
`S
`extra-work information in a database.
`
`1 Claim 5 (original): The computer-implemented method of
`2
`claim 4 further comprising:
`3
`e)
`accepting a client query including extra-work
`4
`information; and
`f) using the accepted extra-work information to
`lookup an identifier in the database.
`
`5
`6
`
`1 Claim 6 (original): The computer-implemented method of
`2
`claim 5 further comprising:
`3
`g) using an identifier found in the database to
`4
`lookup a work-related action.
`
`I Claim 7 {original): The computer-implemented method of
`2
`claim 6 wherein the work-related action is transiting the
`3 client sourcing the client query to an Internet web site.
`
`1 Claim 8 (original): The computer-implemented method of
`2
`claim 1, wherein if the work is not identified as one of a
`3 predetermined number of known works, then d) ·assigning a
`4
`new work identifier to the work; and e) storing the
`5
`identifier and work as a known work.
