20100144380 | Interactive messaging system - The interactive messaging system of the present invention provides for an interactive communication process between users, both senders and recipients. The sender composes a message by filling in a template stored in data services. Once completed, the sender pushes the message to a recipient's wireless device if the wireless device contains a WAP browser, which is capable of receiving pushed messages. Typically the message includes a question along with answers for the recipient to choose from. Each answer corresponds with a pre-assigned response key and the recipient answers the question by selecting one of the pre-assigned response keys. The recipient's response is available to the sender in the form of an e-mail, WAP Push, on-line access or interactive message that is shown to the sender on an on-line status screen. | 06-10-2010 |

20130117039 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ELECTRONICALLY ACCESSING AND TRANSMITTING HEALTH INSURANCE PORTABILITY AND ACCOUNTABILITY ACT (HIPAA) COMPLIANT DATA - Systems and methods for electronically transmitting and accessing Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) compliant data are provided. The HIPAA compliant data are transmitted to a patient via a mobile device in the form of an alert that provides the patient with reminders to take medications. To maintain the privacy of the patient, the specific drug names of the medications are replaced by a generic reference or identifier to comply with the provisions of HIPAA. Systems and methods for providing and authorizing access to a third party to receive and/or review PHI and/or EPHI of a patient via a social network website are also provided. To grant access, the patient executes a HIPAA release form and the third party is added to a list of third parties allowed to receive and access HIPAA compliant data via a social network website. | 05-09-2013 |

20100177638 | HIGH PERFORMANCE PROBABILISTIC RATE POLICER - A data flow rate policer enforces data flow policies for a number of data flows using a probabilistic policy enforcement mechanism. The policer includes a memory that stores the state of each data flow in a compact data structure. Additionally, the policer includes one or more policing engines that implement the actual data flow policies based on information derived from the data structures. The policing engines may be implemented in hardware to increase performance. | 07-15-2010 |
20100290342 | HIERARCHICAL POLICERS FOR ENFORCING DIFFERENTIATED TRAFFIC BEHAVIOR - A hierarchical traffic policer may include a first policer configured to pass first packets when a first condition is met. The first policer also may alter selection information within the passed first packets. A second policer may be configured to pass second packets when a second condition is met. The second policer may be further configured to pass all of the passed first packets from the first policer based on the altered selection information within the passed first packets. | 11-18-2010 |
20120113808 | CASCADED LOAD BALANCING - A first network device and a second network device for forwarding data units are included in a network. The second network device is configured to receive data units from the first network device via an output interface from the first network device. Each of the network devices is further configured to form a first value derived from information pertaining to a received data unit, perform a function on the first value to provide a second value, wherein the function of the first network device is different from the function of the second network device when forwarding a same data unit, select an output interface based on the second value, and forward a received data unit via an interface. | 05-10-2012 |
20120269197 | MULTICAST LOAD BALANCING - A method may include receiving a packet; identifying the packet as a multicast packet for sending to a plurality of destination nodes; selecting a first forwarding table or a second forwarding table for sending the packet to each of the plurality of destination nodes, wherein the first forwarding table includes first port information associated with a first destination and second port information associated with a second destination, and wherein the second forwarding table includes third port information associated with the second destination; sending the packet to the first destination using the first port; and sending the packet to the second destination using the second port when the first forwarding table is selected and sending the packet to the second destination using the third port when the second forwarding table is selected. | 10-25-2012 |

20090058492 | ELECTRONIC ISOLATOR - The present invention is an electronic isolator that provides low input to output insertion loss, high output to input insertion loss, and substantial asymmetric isolation between a source circuit and a load circuit. The invention actively reduces noise and reflected power appearing on the isolator output. In numerous embodiments, the invention operates in circuit applications from dc through millimeter wave. Multistage electronic isolator embodiments provide increased isolation and greater noise reduction. In other embodiments, the electronic isolator also removes noise appearing on its input. In another embodiment the invention is configured for high power applications. This embodiment includes circuitry for redirecting power away from the load into resistors or other dissipative elements. In another embodiment, the electronic isolator is configured to remove signal distortion produced by one or more power amplifiers in the system. | 03-05-2009 |
20090067614 | COMMON MODE TRANSMISSION LINE TERMINATION - The present invention provides termination for transmission line structures propagating common mode signals. Common mode signals typically represent noise in systems wherein information is transmitted as differential mode signals. The present invention terminates the common mode signals in a dynamically matched termination that prevents or significantly reduces reflection of said common signals without interference with differential mode transmission lines or their normal operation. Application is shown for an unshielded, twisted pair transmission line as commonly used in telephony-based systems for both voice and broadband data communication. The methods for application of the present invention to systems with large numbers of conductors are also shown. | 03-12-2009 |
20090207063 | VARIABLE PASSIVE COMPONENTS WITH HIGH RESOLUTION VALUE SELECTION AND CONTROL - The present system provides a method for varying the value of passive components in electronic circuits. Passive components can range from basic resistors, capacitors, and inductors to complex, structures such as transmission lines and resonant cavities. Value selection and variation can either be dynamically performed during circuit operation or as a one-time part of the manufacturing process as determined by the requirements of the specific application. A digital-to-analog converter (DAC) circuit is used to input value selection data digitally, and control value selection with value resolution dependent on the resolution of the DAC. An alternate embodiment is provided for high frequency operation. | 08-20-2009 |
