| 20110313847 | MAPPING IDENTIFIERS - Systems and methods for mapping identifiers are provided. Activity logs illustrate activities and/or events associated with a plurality of identifiers. The identifiers may be registered identifiers, unregistered identifiers, or a combination thereof. When at least two identifiers share a linking attribute, the at least two identifiers may be mapped to one another, along with information associated therewith (if any) such as a user profile. Each subsequent line of an activity line may also be mapped to the identifiers of the initial single line when a linking attribute or an overlapping identifier is present. A number of identifiers associated with each other may be increased by mapping identifiers and, thus, a targeted audience for a customized advertisement may, in turn, be increased. | 12-22-2011 |
| 20120072554 | NODE CLUSTERING - Large sets of unorganized data may provide little value in identifying useful observations from such data. For example, an online merchant may maintain a database of millions of user IDs (e.g., a cookie ID, a login ID, a device ID, a network ID, etc.) along with content viewed and/or actions taken with the user IDs, where minimal associations are known between user IDs. It may be advantageous to link together user IDs of respective users to capture a comprehensive view of respective users' activities. Accordingly, one or more systems and/or techniques for identifying a cluster of nodes based upon transforming a set of node pairings (e.g., pairings of related nodes) one or more times are disclosed herein. Iterative transformations may be performed until respective nodes are paired with merely their smallest neighboring node and are paired with no other node. In this way, node clusters may be identifiable. | 03-22-2012 |

| 20100331179 | ACTIVATED CARBON CRYOGELS AND RELATED METHODS - Carbon cryogels, methods for making the carbon cryogels, methods for storing a gas using the carbon cryogels, and devices for storing and delivering a gas using the carbon cryogels. | 12-30-2010 |
| 20110053765 | CARBON-BASED FOAM NANOCOMPOSITE HYDROGEN STORAGE MATERIAL - A carbon-based foam composite including a carbon-based foam and a solid state hydrogen storage material, methods for making the carbon-based foam composite, and methods for using the carbon-based foam composite. Representative carbon-based foams include cryogels, aerogels, and xerogels. Representative solid state hydrogen storage materials include metal hydrides and chemical hydrides. | 03-03-2011 |
| 20110151574 | DETECTION OF TRACE CHEMICALS AND METHOD THEREFOR - The invention provides devices, systems, and methods for detecting an analyte vapor. Particularly, electronegative analyte vapors, such as those vapors evolving from explosive compounds, are typical analytes detected the devices. The devices operate using a resistivity change mechanism wherein a nanostructured chemiresistive material undergoes a resistivity change in the presence of an analyte vapor. A resistivity change indicates the presence of an analyte. | 06-23-2011 |
| 20110162708 | DYE-SENSITIZED SOLAR CELL EMPLOYING ZINC OXIDE AGGREGATES GROWN IN THE PRESENCE OF LITHIUM - Provided are a novel ZnO dye-sensitized solar cell and method of fabricating the same. In one embodiment, deliberately added lithium ions are used to mediate the growth of ZnO aggregates. The use of lithium provides ZnO aggregates that have advantageous microstructure, morphology, crystallinity, and operational characteristics. Employing lithium during aggregate synthesis results in a polydisperse collection of ZnO aggregates favorable for porosity and light scattering. The resulting nanocrystallites forming the aggregates have improved crystallinity and more favorable facets for dye molecule absorption. The lithium synthesis improves the surface stability of ZnO in acidic dyes. The procedures developed and disclosed herein also help ensure the formation of an aggregate film that has a high homogeneity of thickness, a high packing density, a high specific surface area, and good electrical contact between the film and the fluorine-doped tin oxide electrode and among the aggregate particles. | 07-07-2011 |
| 20110199716 | ELECTRIC DOUBLE LAYER CAPACITANCE DEVICE - The present application is directed to electric double layer capacitance (EDLC) devices. In one aspect, the present application is directed to an electrode comprising an activated carbon cryogel having a tunable pore structure wherein: the surface area is at least 1500 m2/g as determined by nitrogen sorption at 77K and BET analysis; and the pore structure comprises a pore volume ranging from about 0.01 cc/g to about 0.25 cc/g for pores having a pore diameter of 0.6 to 1.0 nm. In another aspect, the present application is directed to an Electric Double Layer Capacitor (EDLC) device comprising an activated cryogel. | 08-18-2011 |

| 20080201761 | Dynamically Associating Attribute Values with Objects - Embodiments are provided to dynamically associate an attribute and an associated value to an object, including attribute-value sets to an object, but the embodiments are not so limited. In an embodiment, a system includes a directory component that can be configured to dynamically assign different values, for a set attributes, to an object. In one embodiment, a directory application can be configured to select an attribute-value set for an object based in part on a group membership determination, and a precedence parameter associated with an attribute-value, set, or other grouping. Other embodiments are available. | 08-21-2008 |
| 20090328154 | ISOLATION OF SERVICES OR PROCESSES USING CREDENTIAL MANAGED ACCOUNTS - This disclosure describes methods, systems, and application programming interfaces for creating a credential managed account. This disclosure describes creating a new password managed account, defining the password managed account, wherein the password managed account is to access a service on a managed computing device, identifying the password managed account for a lifecycle, and automatically managing the password managed account by updating and changing a password for the password managed account on a periodic basis. | 12-31-2009 |
| 20110107401 | ESTABLISHING TRUST RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN COMPUTER SYSTEMS - An offline trust system establishes a trust relationship between a trust authority computer system and a target computer system without relying on an active network connection between the computer systems. The offline trust system separates the trust establishment operation into a provisioning phase and a configuration phase. The provisioning phase can be performed entirely on the trust authority, while the configuration phase can be performed entirely on the target computer system requesting trust. The two phases can be performed at different times and do not assume any connection between the two computer systems. An administrator may perform the provisioning phase for many target computer systems at the same time. Thus, the offline trust system provides a way to establish trust between computer systems that is more reliable and less prone to failure. | 05-05-2011 |
