20140254772 | UNUSUAL EVENT DETECTION IN A TELECOMMUNICATIONS NETWORK - Measures for detecting unusual communication session events in a telecommunications network. A Markov model for events occurring in communication sessions conducted in the network is maintained. The maintaining includes assigning a probability of occurrence metric to a plurality of event sequences in the conducted communication sessions. In response to a given sequence of communication session events being assigned a probability of occurrence metric which exceeds a predetermined threshold, an unusual communication session event alert in association with the given sequence is triggered. | 09-11-2014 |

20110055342 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR RETRIEVING A RESOURCE - A method for retrieving a resource such as a data file includes determining an email address of a user requesting the retrieval, and checking whether a characteristic condition associated with said resource is satisfied. If the characteristic condition is not satisfied, for example if the size of the resource exceeds a threshold, a message is returned to the user indicating that said request for retrieval of said resource has been received, and the request is placed in a queue. The queue is processed on the basis of a rule, and the resource retrieved when said queue has been sufficiently processed, when the user can be notified by means of the email address that the resource has been retrieved. Also disclosed is a similar process for uploading data files in response to a request. | 03-03-2011 |

20090132539 | TRACKING MARKED DOCUMENTS - When data is stored on a computer, or subsequently, originator preferences relating to the data are stored in a data-base, for example in a network. When another user subsequently makes a request for processing of the received data, or a modified copy of the data, it is determined whether the requested processing is consistent with any stored originator preferences, and the requested processing is permitted only if it is consistent with the stored originator preferences. The preferences may relate to saving, copying or retransmitting the data. The originator may be notified of any processing operations that are carried out. | 05-21-2009 |

20160093285 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING NON-LEXICAL CUES IN SYNTHESIZED SPEECH - Systems and methods are disclosed for providing non-lexical cues in synthesized speech. Original text is analyzed to determine characteristics of the text and/or to derive or augment an intent (e.g., an intent code). Non-lexical cue insertion points are determined based on the characteristics of the text and/or the intent. One or more non-lexical cues are inserted at insertion points to generate augmented text. The augmented text is synthesized into speech, including converting the non-lexical cues to speech output. | 03-31-2016 |

20150202938 | PISTON WITH CRUSH FINS - An air spring for air suspension system comprises a piston assembly and a damper assembly. A plurality of crush ribs are spaced apart from one another located within an internal cavity defined by the piston assembly and extending in an axial direction. A striker cap is located proximate to a first end of the damper assembly. There is a first interference fit between the damper assembly and the striker cap and there is a second interference fit between the striker cap and the crush fins, such that the piston assembly and the damper assembly are rotationally fixed relative to one another. | 07-23-2015 |

20140030335 | CERIUM OXIDE NANOPARTICLES FOR THE TREATMENT AND PREVENTION OF STROKE AND CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE - A method of treating or preventing neurological injury in a subject who has suffered a stroke is described. The method includes administering a therapeutically effective amount of cerium oxide nanoparticles to the subject. Methods for prophylaxis against neurological injury from stroke, and methods for treating or preventing cardiovascular disease by administration of a therapeutically effective amount of cerium oxide nanoparticles are also described. | 01-30-2014 |

20130273330 | SILICON HARDMASK LAYER FOR DIRECTED SELF-ASSEMBLY - Compositions for directed self-assembly patterning techniques are provided which avoid the need for separate anti-reflective coatings and brush neutral layers in the process. Methods for directed self-assembly are also provided in which a self-assembling material, such as a directed self-assembly block copolymer, can be applied directly to the silicon hardmask neutral layer and then self-assembled to form the desired pattern. Directed self-assembly patterned structures are also disclosed herein. | 10-17-2013 |
20140299969 | HIGHLY ETCH-RESISTANT POLYMER BLOCK FOR USE IN BLOCK COPOLYMERS FOR DIRECTED SELF-ASSEMBLY - Compositions for directed self-assembly (DSA) patterning techniques are provided. Methods for directed self-assembly are also provided in which a DSA composition comprising a block copolymer is applied to a substrate and then self-assembled to form the desired pattern. The block copolymer includes at least two blocks of differing etch rates, so that one block (e.g., polymethylmethacrylate) is selectively removed during etching. Because the slower etching block (e.g., polystyrene) is modified with an additive to further slow the etch rate of that block, more of the slow etching block remains behind to fully transfer the pattern to underlying layers. | 10-09-2014 |
20150197594 | HIGH-CHI BLOCK COPOLYMERS FOR DIRECTED SELF-ASSEMBLY - Compositions for directed self-assembly (DSA) patterning techniques are provided. Methods for directed self-assembly are also provided in which a DSA composition comprising a block copolymer (BCP) is applied to a substrate and then self-assembled to form the desired pattern. The block copolymer includes at least two blocks and is selected to have a high interaction parameter (χ). The BCPs are able to form perpendicular lamellae by simple thermal annealing on a neutralized substrate, without a top coat. The BCPs are also capable of micro-phase separating into lines and spaces measuring at 10 nm or smaller, with sub-20-nm L | 07-16-2015 |

20090189822 | Antenna Designs for Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) Tags - Methods, systems, and apparatuses for antenna designs for radio frequency identification (RFID) tags are described. | 07-30-2009 |
20100079288 | RFID Tag Device with Temperature Sensitive Antenna - An apparatus system, and techniques for detecting temperature change are disclosed. The system includes a temperature sensitive antenna that can be included in an RFID tag device. The antenna is associated with a temperature sensitive material that, upon being exposed to a particular temperature level over a time interval, causes at least one of a change in the resonance frequency of the antenna and change in antenna signal strength (e.g., antenna gain). An RFID reader is also provided that sends commands to the tag device and determines the existence of a temperature change based on a comparison of signal strengths received on different frequencies from the antenna. | 04-01-2010 |
