20100287532 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR INTEGRATING MULTIPLE SCRIPTS - A method of testing the server implementation of the Domain Name System protocol by using a first body of computer code in a first programming language capable of sending and receiving DNS requests, and a second body of computer readable code in a second programming language capable of generating DNS requests and verifying responses. The second programming language may be tailored to writing code being capable of generating Domain Name System requests and verifying the response thereby allowing the program to be efficiently reconfigured to test different aspects of the server. | 11-11-2010 |
20100325250 | CHARACTERIZING UNREGISTERED DOMAIN NAMES - Methods and apparatus for characterizing unregistered domain names are provided. One embodiment includes obtaining a list of a plurality of resolution requests for the unregistered domain names, determining a number of occurrences of each of the unregistered domain names, computing a plurality of groupings based on the number of occurrences, and associating a score with each of the unregistered domain names. | 12-23-2010 |
20110106924 | Internet Domain Name Super Variants - Systems and methods for registering a domain, including Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs), including receiving a request to register an IDN and determining a language category of the request. Code points of the request are converted to yield a generalized variant of the IDN. The generalized variant is compared to a stored database of registered IDNs that may include similar generalized variants of the registered IDNs. Based on the comparison, it is determined whether or not to resister the IDN. In the case the that ION registration is allowed the generalized variant of the IDN may be stored in the database to protect against later registration by similar IDNs. Converting the code points of the request may include identifying corresponding code points of variants within the language category, and converting each of the code points of the requested IDN based on a deterministic algorithm applied to the corresponding code points. The deterministic algorithm may be applied to a value of each of the corresponding code points to yield a representative code point from among the corresponding code points, and the generalized variant may include a representative code point for each of the code points of the request. | 05-05-2011 |
20120084281 | DOMAIN NAME TOKENIZATION AND ALTERNATIVE DOMAIN NAME GENERATION - A system for determining alternative domain names is disclosed. The system includes a receiver that receives input from a user and a synonym module that determines synonyms of at least one word in the user input. The system also includes a correlation module that receives the synonyms from the synonym module and terms from a topical news source database and generates a correlation score for at least one of the terms from the topical news source database based on a correlation between the term from the topical news source database and the user input. The system also includes a variants module that generates an alternative domain name based on the term from the topical news source database and its correlation score. | 04-05-2012 |
20120331121 | CHARACTERIZING UNREGISTERED DOMAIN NAMES - Methods and apparatus for characterizing unregistered domain names are provided. One embodiment includes obtaining a list of a plurality of resolution requests for the unregistered domain names, determining a number of occurrences of each of the unregistered domain names, computing a plurality of groupings based on the number of occurrences, and associating a score with each of the unregistered domain names. | 12-27-2012 |
