| 20080275993 | Web service for user and subscription data storage - A data service that manages user and subscription data for multiple services. The data service maintains a database of the user and subscription data and provides an interface that allows the other services, that act as clients to the data service, to access that data. The data service avoids the need for the client services to implement a framework to manage the storage of user and subscription data. The data service also allows user profile data to be updated by one client service and used by all others. Further, data, such as usage history or information on policy violations, may be shared by multiple services. | 11-06-2008 |
| 20090327063 | Online Services Offer Management - Online services offer modeling is provided. A system for managing online offers for products and services includes a components module, an offer module, a subscription module, a billing module and a change management module. The component module defines the properties of components that may be included in an offer. The offer module defines the features of the offer, including one or more components. The components may be a base component or an add-on component. The subscription module processes the provisioning of an offer. The market module specifies countries or regions in which offers are made available. The billing module processes billing and payment actions for an offer. The change management module processes alterations to a provisioned offer, inserting the properties of an add-on component into the properties of a base component. | 12-31-2009 |

| 20100129074 | IN-BAND OPTICAL SIGNAL TO NOISE RATIO DETERMINATION METHOD AND SYSTEM - There is provided a method for determining the in-band noise in agile multichannel Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) optical systems, where the interchannel noise is not representative of the in-band noise in the optical channel. The method relies on the analysis of two observations of the same input optical signal. In the two observations, the linear relationship between the optical signal contribution and the optical noise contribution (i.e. the observed OSNR) is different, which allows the discrimination of the signal and noise contributions in the input optical signal. In a first approach, the two observations are provided by polarization analysis of the input optical signal. In a second, the input optical signal is obtained using two different integration widths. | 05-27-2010 |
| 20110091206 | IN-BAND OPTICAL NOISE MEASUREMENT USING DIFFERENTIAL POLARIZATION RESPONSE - A method comprises: acquiring, for a number nSOP of varied State-Of-Polarization analysis conditions of the input optical signal, nSOP polarization-analyzed optical spectrum traces; mathematically discriminating said signal contribution from said noise contribution within said optical signal bandwidth using said polarization-analyzed optical spectrum traces, said mathematically discriminating comprising: obtaining a differential polarization response that is related to the optical spectrum of said signal contribution by a constant of proportionality; estimating the constant of proportionality of a differential polarization response to the optical spectrum of said signal contribution; estimating the optical spectrum of said noise contribution from said input optical signal, within said optical signal bandwidth using said constant of proportionality and said differential polarization response; and determining said in-band noise parameter on said input optical signal from the mathematically discriminated noise contribution. | 04-21-2011 |

| 20080225842 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR ACCELERATING TRANSMISSION OF DATA BETWEEN NETWORK DEVICES - A method and system for transferring data between a sender and a receiver in a packet-based network is disclosed. The method comprises establishing a data channel, establishing a feedback channel, sending data to the receiver over the data channel, sending an acknowledgment to a sender on the feedback channel at a predetermined interval, using the acknowledgment to track data sent successfully and unsuccessfully to the receiver, resending data unsuccessfully sent to the receiver, and self-tuning to optimize throughput based upon the acknowledgement and react to changing network conditions. | 09-18-2008 |

| 20090164575 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF COMPLEX NETWORK TELEPRESENCE CONFERENCE - A system and a method for dynamic establishment of telepresence conferences using standard protocol, such as SIP, for communications are provided. The method provides for negotiation of profiles of each location participating at the telepresence conference. The profiles provide information on the connectivity, positioning and configuration of the audiovisual elements, number of participating sites and number of participants at each location. These profiles are derived from the set of sites participating into the telepresence conference and their capabilities which are acquired through a dynamic scheme during the telepresence conference initiation. | 06-25-2009 |

| 20110288695 | CONTROL INTERFACE FOR UNMANNED VEHICLES - An unmanned vehicle system containing one or more vehicles equipped with an autonomous control system. Each vehicle is of navigating on its own when provided with goals. A user is capable of sending and receiving goals from the autonomous control system via a communication link. A unified display interface displays information about the system and accepts commands from the user. The display interface in question is modeless and has a minimum of clutter and distractions. The form of this display interface is that of a set of screens, each of which is able to receive touch inputs from the user. The user is able to monitor and control individual vehicles or the entirety of the UVS solely through their use of a standard touchscreen with no additional peripherals. | 11-24-2011 |
