20090244285SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING CREATION OF ON-SIDE TEXT FOR VIDEO SURVEILLANCE - A system and method for generating side-by-side video surveillance feed and point-of-service device text is provided. The system includes a video surveillance device, a point-of-service device such as an ATM, slot machine and point-of-sale device, and a synchronizing unit for synchronizing the video surveillance feed with point-of-service text when a security officer identifies activities matching a predetermined criteria occurring at the point-of-service device. The video surveillance feed is generated and processed for display on a security monitor. When an activities matching the predetermined criteria is identified near a point-of-service device, point-of-service text is received from the device. Both the video surveillance feed and the point-of-service text are displayed side-by-side so that neither data obscures the other. The video surveillance feed and the point-of-service text are also synchronized to one another and stored for later use.10-01-2009

20100077462SECURE DOMAIN NAME SYSTEM - A method and system for authenticating answers to Domain Name System (DNS) queries originating from recursive DNS servers are provided. A verification component provides a verification that a DNS query originated from the recursive DNS server. An authoritative DNS server receives the query via a network, such as the Internet, and provides an answer to the query to an authentication component. The authentication component then provides an authentication, such as a digital signature, which confirms that the received answer was provided by the authoritative DNS server, and then communicates the answer and the authentication to the verification component via the network. The verification component then verifies that the authentication corresponds to the received answer and sends the answer to the recursive DNS server. When the verification component receives an answer in the absence of a corresponding authentication, the verification component drops the answer.03-25-2010

20090265891Hand tightened knob or key - A method and apparatus which can be used to connect two items together using a knob, key, handle or lever. The knob has a central boss from which extend at least two curved, in plan, arms. The curved shape of the arms is adapted in use to aid grip. or purchase during tightening or aid grip or purchase during releasing motion of the boss to thereby minimise the risk of overtightening.10-29-2009
20090294609Mount for Mounting a Device, Such As a Telephone Cradle or a Navigation Device, to a Surface - At least one embodiment of the present invention relates a mount for mounting a device, such as a telephone cradle or a navigation device, to a surface. The mount includes a connection member for connecting the device to the mount, the connection member being arranged to allow adjustment of the orientation of the device with respect to the mount; a suction cup arranged to be attached to the surface by generating underpressure in between the suction cup and the surface; a pull member arranged to pull a central part of the suction cup substantially in a first direction from a first position to a second position, thereby generating underpressure in between the suction cup and the surface. In at least one embodiment, in the second position, the pull member is arranged to exert a friction force to the connection member to fixate the connection member.12-03-2009

20090212181Navigation System and Method of Forming a Navigation System - A navigation system is disclosed for providing navigational directions. It has a navigation device with a body provided with a receiving part. The receiving part has an inner surface provided with a connecting element of a first connection type. The navigation system further includes a docking system arranged to accommodate the navigation device. The docking system has an extending part provided with a connecting element of a second connection type. The connecting element of the second connection type is arranged for connection to the connecting element of the first connection type. The extending part further includes an outer surface with a shape similar to the inner surface of the receiving part of the navigation device. In at least one embodiment, the receiving part is slideable along a trajectory over the outer surface, the trajectory being determined by the shape of both the inner surface of the receiving part of the navigation device and the outer surface of the extending part of the docking system. Particularly, the trajectory is such that the connecting element of the first connection type is guided towards the connecting element of the second connection type for connection.08-27-2009

20090105786METHOD AND DEVICE FOR STRENGTHENING SYNAPTIC CONNECTIONS - The invention provides a method and device for inducing a conditioned neural response in a subject. The method comprises detecting spike activity in a first neural site in the subject; and delivering a stimulus pulse to a second neural site in the subject. The stimulus pulse is delivered within the time window for synaptic strengthening following the detecting of a spike. These two steps, detection and stimulation, are repeated continuously, typically for a day or two. The conditioned neural response is induced when a pattern of neural activity evoked by stimulation at the first neural site emulates a pattern of neural activity evoked by stimulation at the second neural site. The conditioned neural response persists for an extended period of time.04-23-2009

20080240119User interface for modeling estimations of resource provisioning - User interfaces are described for modeling estimations of resource provisioning. An example user interface may request a display of graphical indicators associated with nodes and edges, request a determination of an indicator of a service node workload associated with a service node included in a workflow path based on attribute values associated with the service node and an indicator of a propagated workload, and request provisioning of service nodes onto hardware nodes. The nodes may include external invocation nodes, service nodes, and hardware nodes, and the edges may include node connectors. An indication of an arrangement of an external invocation node, a group of service nodes, a group of node connectors, and a group of hardware nodes may be received, wherein the arrangement may be configured by a user interacting with the displayed graphical indicators, and may represent a workflow path.10-02-2008
