20090204969 | TRANSACTIONAL MEMORY WITH DYNAMIC SEPARATION - Strong semantics are provided to programs that are correctly synchronized in their use of transactions by using dynamic separation of objects that are accessed in transactions from those accessed outside transactions. At run-time, operations are performed to identify transitions between these protected and unprotected modes of access. Dynamic separation permits a range of hardware-based and software-based implementations which allow non-conflicting transactions to execute and commit in parallel. A run-time checking tool, analogous to a data-race detector, may be provided to test dynamic separation of transacted data and non-transacted data. Dynamic separation may be used in an asynchronous I/O library. | 08-13-2009 |

20110225195 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR GATHERING ECOMMERCE DATA - The techniques introduced here provide a method of gathering ecommerce data. The techniques described here allow a system to return information about a product from several non-related ecommerce sites in response to a single search query. Using the techniques described here, a data mining system determines from the search query a product ID and retrieves from a database one or more product links that correspond to the product ID. Using the product links retrieved from the database, the data mining system traverses the links and parses the web-pages corresponding each of the links to determine up to date product information. The product information can then be returned to the application that initiated the request. | 09-15-2011 |
20140279189 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MONITORING AND RECOMMENDING RELEVANT PRODUCTS - Techniques for recommending similar products are disclosed herein. The method of recommending similar products includes receiving a positive input from a user, the positive input indicating that the user accepts that a first product is similar to a second product; determining, by a database, one or more specification keys of the first product that a database record of the second product contain; for each of the specification keys, increasing a weight counter for the specification key in response to the positive input; calculating a closeness score between the first and second products based on values of the specification keys of the first product, values of the specification keys of the second product, and weight counters for the specification keys; and recommending the first product as a replacement of the second product based on the closeness score. | 09-18-2014 |
20140279195 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MONITORING AND RECOMMENDING RELEVANT PRODUCTS - Techniques for a product search grid are disclosed herein. The method for presenting a grid includes receiving data in association with a plurality of products from one or more merchant websites; presenting a data grid including cells based on the data, wherein each cell of the cells represents a product of the products or a replacement of a product of the products; displaying information regarding the products or the replacements of the products in the cells; and updating the contents of cells of the data grid automatically in real time in response to new data received from the merchant websites. | 09-18-2014 |
20150278382 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR GENERATING PRIME UNIFORM RESOURCE IDENTIFIERS - A system and method for mapping an input uniform resource identifier (URI) to an entry in a database. The system cleans an input URI to produce a prime URI that references an entry in a database. The prime URI is created by applying a regular expression determined for a particular domain to the input URI. Once the prime URI is generated, the prime URI can be used to retrieve information from a database. | 10-01-2015 |

20130240456 | DEVICE AND METHOD FOR LABEL-FREE SEPARATION OF MATERIAL USING MAGNETIC FIELD - Devices and methods for label-free separation of material. A fluid-filled settling chamber is used for settling material by gravity. A fluid mixture comprising a target material and at least one non-target material is introduced into the settling chamber, where the target material has a paramagnetic property. A magnetic field is applied to the settling chamber sufficient to impede gravitational settling of the target material and not affect gravitational settling of the non-target material, in order to separate the target material from the non-target material. | 09-19-2013 |

20140117078 | SUBCRIPTION OF A USER - A machine may be configured to subscribe a user to a data feed that corresponds to an activity. The machine may generate an optically scannable code that encodes an activity identifier of the activity. The machine may cause a first device to access this optically scannable code, and the first device may present the optically scannable code to a second device. The second device may scan the optically scannable code, and the machine may detect that the optically scannable code has been scanned by the second device. In response to this detection, the machine may subscribe a user of the second device to a data feed that corresponds to the activity. Hence, a first user may present the optically scannable code using one device, and a second user can scan the optically scannable code using another device and be subscribed to the data feed for the activity. | 05-01-2014 |

20120328967 | FUEL CELL WITH SELECTIVELY CONDUCTING ANODE COMPONENT - By incorporating a selectively conducting component in electrical series with the anode components in a solid polymer fuel cell, degradation during startup and shutdown can be reduced. As a result, the startup and shutdown procedures can be simplified and consequently certain system apparatus may be omitted. The anode does not need to be rapidly purged with hydrogen on startup or with air on shutdown. Additionally, the auxiliary load usually employed during such purging is not required. | 12-27-2012 |
20130017471 | FUEL CELL WITH SELECTIVELY CONDUCTING ANODE COMPONENT - To reduce degradation of a solid polymer fuel cell during startup and shutdown, a selectively conducting component is incorporated in electrical series with the anode components in the fuel cell. The component is characterized by a low electrical resistance in the presence of hydrogen or fuel and a high resistance in the presence of air. High cathode potentials can be prevented by integrating such a component into the fuel cell. A suitable selectively conducting component can comprise a layer of selectively conducting material, such as a metal oxide. | 01-17-2013 |
