| 20090012873 | SYSTEMS FOR MANAGING DIGITAL MEDIA DISTRIBUTION - Systems and methods for organizing and managing the collection and distribution of digital content to users via a network of kiosks are described. The systems contain a conglomerate of software applications that can be combined to manage the digital content itself, as well as manage the kiosks that used to distribute the digital content. The software applications are also able to manage the payments received by the users and the payments made to the providers of the digital content. The software applications can be web-based so that they can be accessed and operated via a single portal. Other embodiments are also described. | 01-08-2009 |

| 20100198829 | METHOD AND COMPUTER-PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR RANGED INDEXING - A method for generating and searching a ranged index provides a computer-readable medium which is adapted to store a database including a data chunk, and a ranged index including a data chunk index; generating the data chunk index by determining a high value in the data chunk and a low value in the data chunk; generate the ranged index from such data chunk index; and storing the ranged index on the computer-readable medium. A search value or values may then be provided; comparing the search value or values to the high value and the low value from the data chunk index for the data chunk in the ranged index for the database; and searching the data chunk to determine if the search value or values is lower than or equal to the high value and higher than or equal to the low value. By using inexpensive, quick comparisons of minima and maxima, the method and computer-program product avoids more costly sequential searches of larger data chunks where possible. | 08-05-2010 |

| 20110205030 | METHOD OF DE-ACTIVATING AND ACTIVATING AN ELECTRONIC ARTICLE SURVEILLANCE (ESA) DEVICE, AND AN EAS DEVICE - A device for use in electronic article surveillance EAS is disclosed which comprises a resonant circuit, typically designed for 8.2 MHz operation, in addition to a transponder, such as RFID, for non-contact communication with a communication station. The RFID transponder can provide a signal to detune the resonant circuit to disable the EAS and optionally another signal to tune or retune the resonant circuit to enable or re-enable the EAS. The detuning and tuning or retuning may preferably be achieved using phase change memory material, configured as a programmable switch having two states with different resistances. | 08-25-2011 |
