Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20100211961DATA BUS BETWEEN MIDDLEWARE LAYERS - A system/method is introduced that integrates middleware components without canonicalization of data at runtime, where the system/method receives inputs identifying at least a first and second middleware to be made interoperative (via a communication path between an in-port corresponding to the first middleware and an out-port corresponding to the second middleware), receives an incoming message at the in-port, handles the received message as a plurality of parts and where, for each part, a data-object is created based on an identified type factory, with the in-port populating the data-object with values from corresponding part of the message and passing the populated data object from the in-port corresponding to the first middleware to the out-port corresponding to the second middleware.08-19-2010

20120072347POLICY-BASED PAYMENT TRANSACTION ROUTING SERVICE FOR CREDIT CARD PAYMENT PROCESSING - The present document describes a method, processing device and computer readable media, for routing a credit card payment transaction over a communication network. The method comprises receiving an authorization request for the credit card payment transaction at a payment processor, the authorization request being generated at a merchant terminal of a merchant. The method also comprises: at the payment processor, determining an optimal transaction route for sending the authorization request over the communication network to one of multiple acquirer servers, each one of the multiple acquirer servers being associated to one of multiple acquiring financial institutions of the merchant, the determining being based on payment processing costs associated to routing the authorization request from the merchant terminal to each one of the multiple acquirer servers; the payment processor routing the authorization request to the one of the multiple acquirer servers implementing the optimal transaction route; the payment processor receiving, from the one of the multiple acquirer servers, an authorization response for the authorization request; the payment processor forwarding the authorization response to the merchant terminal; and the merchant terminal displaying the authorization response forwarded by the payment processor, to thereby notify a user of the authorization response.03-22-2012

20100238891SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ALLOCATING AND TRANSMITTING UPLINK DATA BLOCK TRANSMISSIONS - Systems and methods for allocating and transmitting uplink data block transmissions with piggy-backed ACK/NACK bitmap field are provided. The systems and methods involve using a request for a DBCCI (Data Block Combined with Control Information) to allocate a timeslot for data transmission. A UADB (uplink allocation for data block) is not also used to allocate the timeslot.09-23-2010
20100238910SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ALLOCATING AND TRANSMITTING UPLINK DATA BLOCK TRANSMISSIONS WITH PIGGY-BACKED ACK/NACK BITMAP - Systems and methods for allocating and transmitting uplink data block transmissions with piggy-backed ACK/NACK bitmap field are provided. In a specific example, a mobile station receives a request for a data block combined with control information (DBCCI). The mobile station responds by transmitting a DBCCI using at least one timeslot corresponding to a timeslot used for the request. At least some of the time, the mobile station sends data blocks in an order different than that would be otherwise used (e.g. block sequence order).09-23-2010
20110051661METHODS AND APPARATUS TO AVOID MOBILE STATION TRANSMISSION OF DUPLICATE EVENT-BASED AND POLLED ACKNOWLEDGMENTS - Methods and apparatus to avoid mobile station transmission of duplicate event-based and polled acknowledgments are disclosed. An example method for a mobile station configured to send event-based acknowledgment information as disclosed herein comprises classifying a downlink data block as unreported, receiving a poll from a network requesting the mobile station to send polled acknowledgment information during a period, and refraining from sending during the period event-based acknowledgment information for the downlink data block classified as unreported.03-03-2011
20110069669SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR SENDING AND RECEIVING PAN (PIGGY-BACKED ACK/NACK) SO AS TO AVOID DECODING CONFUSION - There may be ambiguity when ACK/NACK information is transmitted. In some cases the ambiguity may arise because a bit may be either a padding bit, or an ACK/NACK bit having the same value as a padding bit. In other cases, the ambiguity may arise where it is unclear whether the ACK/NACK is in respect of a first transmission of a data block, or a subsequent transmission of the same data block. Various schemes provided to address this. In some cases, the mobile station is mandated to apply a consistent behaviour. Over time, the network can deduce the behaviour. In some cases the mobile station transmits signaling that conveys the behaviour.03-24-2011
20110103306METHODS AND APPARATUS TO USE WINDOW ALIGNMENT INFORMATION TO PROCESS ACKNOWLEDGMENT INFORMATION ASSOCIATED WITH TRANSMITTED DATA BLOCKS - Methods and apparatus to use window alignment information to process acknowledgment information associated with transmitted data blocks are disclosed. An example method disclosed herein comprises receiving acknowledgment information piggy-backed with data when a first previously transmitted block is associated with at least one of a tentative acknowledgment state or a pending acknowledgment state, and advancing a transmit window when the acknowledgment information indicates that all previously transmitted data blocks including the first previously transmitted block have been positively acknowledged.05-05-2011
20110249561SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SENDING AND RECEIVING ACKNOWLEDGEMENT INFORMATION TO AVOID DECODING CONFUSION - Systems and methods for sending and receiving acknowledgment information to avoid decoding confusion. A disclosed example includes sending an indication of whether data blocks received by the mobile station after a poll are or will be accounted for in acknowledgement information, receiving the poll from a network, the poll requesting acknowledgement information, and sending to the network the acknowledgement information requested in the poll.10-13-2011
20120014359Systems and Methods for Allocating and Transmitting Uplink Data Block Transmissions - Systems and methods for allocating and transmitting uplink data block transmissions with piggy-backed ACK/NACK bitmap field are provided. The systems and methods involve using a request for a DBCCI (Data Block Combined with Control Information) to allocate a timeslot for data transmission. A UADB (uplink allocation for data block) is not also used to allocate the timeslot.01-19-2012

20090052293BIT DETECTION FOR MULTITRACK DIGITAL DATA STORAGE - The use of a multi-track format in both optical and magnetic data storage applications provides for a number of improvements to system performance including data density and data transfer rates. However, the full advantage in data density can only be achieved through the use of joint equalization and joint detection. The complexity of implementation of these functions arc addressed with a transform domain equalization architecture and a reduced complexity detection method based on a breadth first search of a time-varying trellis. The trellis results from a one dimensional representation of a two dimensional target response, obtained by arranging samples from adjacent tracks in a sequence that respects the original proximity of the samples.02-26-2009
