Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090173783SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING ACTIVATION AND EXPIRATION DATA ASSOCIATED WITH NEWLY ISSUED FINANCIAL PRESENTATION DEVICES - Apparatus and method for indirectly determining activation status of newly issued financial presentation devices that replace existing financial presentation devices such as credit cards that are about to expire. The apparatus includes a computer device having an account update module that receives an account identifier for an existing credit card, determines a new expiration date associated with a newly issued credit card that replaces the existing credit card, retrieves transaction data associated with the new credit card and examines the expiration date of the retrieved data. If the expiration date associated with the retrieved transaction data matches the new expiration date, then the account update module determines that the newly issued card has been activated.07-09-2009

20100038418METHOD FOR BIOMETRIC AUTHORIZATION FOR FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS - This invention comprises a method of biometric authorization for making secure financial transactions via bank card (magnetic or smart). All or portion of the personal and financial information on the said bank card is encrypted and is not available without a decoding key that is calculated using the card owner's biometric data. To decode the said information and gain access to the financial data the card's owner needs to prove his/hers identify by providing the required biometric data (e.g. place finger on fingerprint scanner). The captured fingerprint is then converted into a key that is used to decode said encrypted information. Incorrect fingerprint will produce an invalid key that will not succeed at decoding of the encrypted information. The decoding of said information may take place locally at the merchant's point of sale device or remotely at the card issuer's server. This kind of electronic authorization has a high level of security and thus reduces the risks and costs incurred by the card issuer due to monetary losses associated with fraudulent transactions made possible by unauthorized capturing (e.g. snooping) of financial information, theft, or loss of the bank card itself.02-18-2010

20100228850Method and System for Estimating Unique Visitors for Internet Sites - This invention comprises a method and system for estimating unique visitors for Internet sites that is more accurate than the existing unique cookie/unique address counting methods. The invented method relies on the count of unique user identifiers (such as network addresses or preferably cookies)—I—that can be obtained from an existing cookie tracking/user access logging system. The number of unique visitors U is calculated substantially as a ratio of the count of unique cookies (or unique network addresses) to the number of visits N times the inflation factor X plus constant on that is approximately one (exactly one in the case of cookies). The number of visits is calculated by multiplying the sampling period t to the visitation frequency T09-09-2010

20110066953System and Method of Skinning Themes - A method and media engine for rendering a graphical interface on a device is disclosed. A skinning theme document describing rendering characteristics of the graphical interface is parsed. The document comprising at least one data element representing data generated by an application and at least one custom event representing events generated by the application. The parsed information is stored in a template including at least one named data element and at least one custom event describing the graphical interface using a markup language. Updated data element or custom event information is received from an application through an interaction interface. The template is updated with the received updated data element or custom event information. The template is rendered as the graphical interface wherein the graphical user interface presents one or more data elements from each application is rendered.03-17-2011
