20100332281 | TASK ALLOCATION MECHANISMS AND MARKETS FOR ACQUIRING AND HARNESSING SETS OF HUMAN AND COMPUTATIONAL RESOURCES FOR SENSING, EFFECTING, AND PROBLEM SOLVING - A set of projects may be defined, each project having a set of tasks to be performed. In turn, each task may be mapped to a set of task capabilities that are involved in completing the task. A set of agents and components (potentially including both human agents and automated agent, and components for sensing and effecting action in the world) may also be defined, and each agent may have a set of agent capabilities representing skills, knowledge, resources, relationships, etc., that an agent may commit to a task. The tasks of the projects may be fulfilled by identifying coalitions of agents for respective tasks, featuring a sufficient set of agent capabilities corresponding to the task capabilities. This model may be used, e.g., in a matching service, whereby projects submitted by managers may be completed through an automated matching of tasks with a set of agents subscribing to the service. | 12-30-2010 |
20100332513 | CACHE AND INDEX REFRESHING STRATEGIES FOR VARIABLY DYNAMIC ITEMS AND ACCESSES - Many computing scenarios involve an item cache or index, comprising items corresponding to source items that may change without notice, rendering the item in the item cache or index stale. It may not be possible to guarantee the freshness of the items, but it may be desirable to reduce staleness in an efficient manner. Therefore, the refreshing of items may be prioritized by first predicting the query frequency of respective item representing the rate at which an item is retrieved from the item cache (e.g., by monitoring queries for the item), predicting an update frequency representing the rate at which the source item is updated by the source item host (e.g., by classifying the source item type), and computing a refresh utility representing the improvement in cache freshness achieved by refreshing the item. Respective items may then be prioritized for refreshing according to the computed refresh utilities. | 12-30-2010 |

20130157634 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ALLOCATING FREQUENCIES AMONG MULTIPLE TALKGROUPS - A multi-carrier receiver radio monitors frequency channels associated with at least one talkgroup to which a multi-carrier receiver radio subscribes. The talkgroup is associated with a set of frequency channels that may carry group call activity. The radio monitors each frequency channel of the set of frequency channels associated with the talkgroup for group call activity. During monitoring, when a new call is detected on one frequency channel of the set of frequency channels associated with the talkgroup, the radio joins the new call. While joined to the new call, the radio continues to monitor the set of frequency channels associated with the talkgroup for additional transmissions to the talkgroup and to monitor a set of frequency channels associated with another talkgroup to which the multi-carrier receiver radio also subscribes for group call activity on the other talkgroup. | 06-20-2013 |

The stealing of bits from voice is done in a manner that is transparent and not noticeable to users. The systems and methods enable replication of signaling on the downlink and wireline segments that is replaced on the uplink, encoding of interleaving blocks that extend across multiple Layer 2 voice logical data units (LDUs), flexibility in replacing voice data in LDUs, indication of the availability of the service and an interleaving schedule, notification of upcoming stealing events via signaling, and the like. | 02-12-2015 |
20150079919 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR PRIORITY SUMMING OF GROUP AUDITORY DATA - A first group auditory data stream, from a transmitting subscriber device of a first group of subscriber devices or from a dispatch console and intended for the first group of subscriber devices, is received at a conference server. A second group auditory data stream from a transmitting subscriber device of a second group of subscriber devices is similarly received. The conference server determines a relative priority level of one of (i) the first group of subscriber devices relative to the second group of subscriber devices and (ii) the first group auditory data stream relative to the second group auditory data stream, and sets different relative signal gains of the first group auditory data stream and the second group auditory data stream as a function of the determined relative priority level. The two auditory data streams are then summed and forwarded towards the second group of subscriber devices. | 03-19-2015 |

The conference server determines whether the first group auditory data stream generated for the first group of subscriber devices is of interest to a second group of subscriber devices, and if so, sums the first group auditory data stream with a second group auditory data stream intended for the second group of subscriber devices to form a summed group auditory data stream. The conference server then forwards the summed group auditory data stream towards the second group of subscriber devices and forwards the first group auditory data stream towards the first group of subscriber devices. | 03-19-2015 |

20090022319 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SECURING DATA AND COMMUNICATION - A method and apparatus for securing digital data, and applications for securing multiple data items such as multiple files or messages exchanged between two communicating parties. The methods use a randomly created non-repetitive codec, with which the information to be encrypted is XORed. The codec is XORed with a user initial key, and the two results are concatenated. For securing multiple items, a master file is created comprising a number of keys, while the master file itself is encrypted with the initial key. A communication application enables a login-free communication between a client and a server, thus blocking intrusion attempts on the client side, and pishing attempts on the server side. | 01-22-2009 |
