20080288277 | Methods for encouraging charitable social networking - A method of encouraging charitable donations by individuals who are members of a social network is disclosed. A user creates a member account by supplying user identity data from the user and creates a campaign, wherein the created campaign is associated with one or more charities and a financial goal. The user sends invitation to one or more members or non-members and the one or more members or non-members may accept or decline the user's invitation. The one or more members are given the option to donate any amount of money to a charity to post comments about the user, where the monetary value of the donation is associated with the comments posted such that a higher amount donated represents a higher trustworthiness of the comments. The one or more members or non-members may support the campaign by donating money to the one or more charities to help reach the financial goal. One or more user weight values are calculated based at least on a total volume of members or non-members who support the campaign by donating money to the one or more charities and/or a total monetary value of the money donated by the one or more members or non-members, where the one or more user weight values represent reliability of a user's reputation. | 11-20-2008 |

20100122030 | COMPUTER SYSTEM AND PROCESS FOR TRANSFERRING MULTIPLE HIGH BANDWIDTH STREAMS OF DATA BETWEEN MULTIPLE STORAGE UNITS AND MULTIPLE APPLICATIONS IN A SCALABLE AND RELIABLE MANNER - Multiple applications request data from multiple storage units over a computer network. The data is divided into segments and each segment is distributed randomly on one of several storage units, independent of the storage units on which other segments of the media data are stored. At least one additional copy of each segment also is distributed randomly over the storage units, such that each segment is stored on at least two storage units. This random distribution of multiple copies of segments of data improves both scalability and reliability. When an application requests a selected segment of data, the request is processed by the storage unit with the shortest queue of requests. Random fluctuations in the load applied by multiple applications on multiple storage units are balanced nearly equally over all of the storage units. This combination of techniques results in a system which can transfer multiple, independent high-bandwidth streams of data in a scalable manner in both directions between multiple applications and multiple storage units. | 05-13-2010 |

20090005703 | Medical Monitor User Interface - Methods and devices useful for monitoring a patient and for monitoring and displaying the value of a physiological parameter are disclosed. In one embodiment, a user interface for a medical monitoring device is provided. The user interface can have a monitoring screen with a current value screen and a trend screen. The current value screen can display a graphical representation of a value of a physiological parameter over time, e.g., over a first time period, and the trend screen can display a graphical representation of a mean value of the physiological parameter over time, e.g., over a second time period. The lengths of the time periods can be adjustable. In some embodiments, an out-of-limit condition for the physiological parameter can be indicated with shading. For example, the current value screen can display shading between a graph line representing the value of the physiological parameter over time and a threshold line which sets the alarm threshold. The trend screen can display shading between a trendline representing the value of the physiological parameter over time and another threshold line. In yet other embodiments, the user interface can provide an event marking screen. The event marking screen can provide the ability to mark events, e.g., the delivery of a drug to the patient, the adjustment of a sensor, and so on, on a historical trend screen that displays a value of the physiological parameter over time. Such event marking can enable a caregiver to correlate events to a change in a patient's condition as manifested by the physiological parameter. | 01-01-2009 |
