20110072034PRIVACY-SENSITIVE COOPERATIVE LOCATION NAMING - A location database may be configured to store a set of subjective, arbitrary, and/or ephemeral names assigned to a location by various users. When a user of a device arrives at a particular location, the device may retrieve and present to the user the set of names assigned to the location. Moreover, the names may be associated with a privacy designation, which may permit an author of a location name to indicate whether the name of a location should be shared with the public or restricted to access by the user (or to a specified group of users, etc.) Other access criteria may also be specified, e.g., read-only access to a name for the public and read/write access to a particular group of users. Within the set of names of a location, particular names may be designated as authoritative, and may be presented to users with emphasis.03-24-2011

20090030618SYSTEM, METHOD AND SOFTWARE ARRANGEMENT FOR ANALYZING AND CORRELATING MOLECULAR PROFILES ASSOCIATED WITH ANATOMICAL STRUCTURES - A system, method and software arrangement according to exemplary embodiments of the present invention are provided which can use molecular profiles obtained from unaltered human tissue specimens for clinical purposes including disease diagnoses and treatment evaluations. For example, spatial distributions of chemical species including metabolites within the tissue may be obtained using radiological techniques such as magnetic resonance spectroscopy imaging. Disease-specific profiles may be obtained by comparing the distributions of chemical species obtained in ex vivo tissues with pathological observations made on them using statistical analysis. The disease-specific profiles may then be correlated with in vivo or ex vivo molecular profiles to obtain spatial maps that can provide a more sensitive and accurate detection of diseased tissue. Thus, such exemplary systems, methods and software arrangements can include the ability to receive information relating to the distribution of at least three chemical species in the tissue of interest, compare this information statistically to a predetermined profile and, based on the statistical correlation between the information and the profile, determine certain characteristics of the tissue of interest such as, e.g., the presence or absence of diseased tissue.01-29-2009

20080267181Selective Multicasting of Sensor Data for Reliable Delivery - Described is a method for reliable transmission of sensor data and sensor commands. The method is particularly useful for shared packet networks and lossy wireless networks where the rate of packet drops can be significant. A network access node receives a data packet that includes the sensor data and multicasts the data packet towards an aggregation node. Each data packet preferably is transmitted over a unique network path. The number of multicast data packets is determined according to one or more network parameters such as network congestion, packet drop probability, the priority and class of service of the data packet, and the number of unique network paths between the network access node and an aggregation node. The first data packet to arrive at the aggregation node is forwarded to the application node and subsequently received data packets with identical sensor data are discarded.10-30-2008
20090222541DYNAMIC SENSOR NETWORK REGISTRY - A scalable network architecture adapted to interface with various sensor types and sensor access mechanisms while providing real-time access to sensor data for distributed applications and organizations is described. A centralized sensor network service manages the registration, capabilities, near real-time status of the sensors and their current network connections. New sensors are discovered automatically through messaging between network access nodes and the sensor registry. The registry service can be made available to distributed sensor applications and sensor middleware, and facilitates the sharing of sensors across organizations. The sensor registry is automatically updated by network software and does not require manual configuration or reconfiguration each time a sensor is added to or relocated within the network. Authentication and authorization policies can be implemented to ensure that only authorized applications can query and view the registry. The registry can be implemented for multi-vendor sensor networks and can accommodate multiple addressing schemes.09-03-2009
