20140129003 | SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING MAPPABLE INPUT AND OUTPUT TERMINAL ASSIGNMENTS - A controller having logical inputs and outputs and physical options for input and output connections that may be determined at the time that the controller is shipped from a factory. However, after release of the controller from the factory, an end user may have the flexibility to map logical inputs and outputs to physical inputs and outputs, respectively, in any manner as desired. This flexibility may result in optimal use of a limited number of input/output terminals and any available network variables to reduce controller complexity and costs. | 05-08-2014 |

20100091778 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IDENTIFYING LABEL DISTRIBUTION PROTOCOL FLAPPING EVENTS - A method and apparatus for identifying a Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) flapping event in a communication network are disclosed. For example, the method counts a total number of LDP session up events, a total number of LDP session down events, a total number of link up events, and a total number of link down events within a predetermined time interval. The method then determines an occurrence of a LDP flapping event using the plurality of total numbers. | 04-15-2010 |

20110040656 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR GENERATING PREDICTIONS OF PRICE AND AVAILABILITY OF EVENT TICKETS ON SECONDARY MARKETS - A system and method is provided for predicting future price and availability of event tickets on the primary and secondary market and providing buyers with a recommendation as to when to purchase the event tickets at the lowest possible cost or, for sellers, when to sell the tickets at the highest possible price. Data is collected and used to generate statistics about the historical price and availability of event tickets. This data is further used to provide forecasts about the future price and availability of event tickets, including the probability of a sell out for events currently on sale and events not yet on sale. The system makes predictions by differentially weighing factors, both economic and non-economic, that influence the price trajectory and availability of event tickets. The system further includes a self-training mechanism that evolves behaviors based on previous price predictions thereby increasing the systems ability to accurately predict future event ticket prices. | 02-17-2011 |
