| 20090289114 | PRICE GUARANTEE TRACKING SERVICE - Price guarantee tracking services are an automated method for acquiring price guarantee terms and conditions from retailers and subsequently viewing them. A system for tracking a price guarantee includes a processor; memory operably connected to the processor; a find price guarantee program loaded into the memory and operable by the processor; a parse price guarantee program loaded into the memory and operable by the processor; and a list of price guarantee terms loaded into the memory and operable by the processor. | 11-26-2009 |
| 20110023110 | Interactive Video Captcha - Provided is a Captcha Access Control System (CACS) for generating an improved captcha that are based, in one described embodiment, upon a command in one format and a response in a different format, one or both of which are rendered in a format that is difficult for an automated system to interpret. A computer system or program to which a user is requesting access generates a textual or audible command. A video device captures the user's response and transmits the response to a response evaluation device. Based upon an analysis of the transmitted video and a comparison between the analyzed video and the command, the computer or program either enables access or denies access. | 01-27-2011 |
| 20110238828 | REDIRECTING WEB CONTENT - A peer group can be established for sharing Web cache data among a set of computing devices through a peer-to-peer network. The Web cache data can be used by each of the computing devices to respond to requests issued over a client-server network from a Web browser running on that computing device. Web cache data can be exchanged among the peers of the peer group via the peer-to-peer network. A client request issued from a Web browser of one of the computing devices can be satisfied using Web cache data obtained from a different one of the computing devices in the peer group. The client request can be a request to one of the Web servers for Web content. The server associated with the request may never provide the Web content responsive to the client request, which is obtained instead from the different one of the computing devices. | 09-29-2011 |

| 20100023615 | REDIRECTING WEB DOWNLOADS - One or more downloads of web content from one or more web content servers are monitored. A swarm is defined including one or more previous downloaders of the web content from the one or more web content servers. The one or more previous downloaders of the web content include one or more web content caches including at least a portion of the web content. Stored web content within the one or more web content caches of the swarm is tracked. A new downloader of the one or more web content servers is redirected to the one or more web content caches of the swarm. | 01-28-2010 |

| 20120290559 | JOIN ORDER RESTRICTIONS - A query that is submitted to a database is analyzed so as to determine a join order restriction. The join order restriction is associated with a join between two tables of a plurality of tables of the database that participate in the query. The join order restriction constrains its associated join to be executed prior to another join of the query. At least one join plan is generated, the join plan being constrained by the join order restriction. Different join plans include different join orders. A join plan is selected from among the join plans for execution of the query. | 11-15-2012 |
| 20120290590 | CONSTRUCTING A PROJECTION FOR STORING DATA - A method for constructing a projection for storing data on a storage device may include causing a processor to extract characteristics of expected output of a query on the data, and to construct a projection for the data based on the extracted characteristics. | 11-15-2012 |
| 20120290615 | SWITCHING ALGORITHMS DURING A RUN TIME COMPUTATION - A system and method for switching algorithms during a run time computation, the method including configuring hardware of a networked cluster of processing elements, each processing element with a memory hierarchy, to perform a first-tier algorithm on input data, the input data having cardinality and stored on one or a plurality of nodes in the networked cluster. Performing at least a portion of a second-tier algorithm and determining whether to complete the second-tier algorithm and perform a third or subsequent tier algorithm, the determination dependent on cardinality. Automatically passing data to an output if the cardinality of the second-tier algorithm is greater than a threshold cardinality, and passing the data back to the second-tier algorithm or to one or a plurality of subsequent algorithms, in response to the cardinality being less than the threshold, and automatically passing the data to an output at the completion of the data processing. | 11-15-2012 |

| 20120246210 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ADAPTIVE CONTROL OF THE DECIMATION RATIO IN ASYNCHRONOUS SAMPLE RATE CONVERTERS - An asynchronous sample rate converter prevents the folding back of a signal in the passband of an input sample rate into the passband of the output sample by adaptively controlling the decimation rate. The ASRC includes an adaptive decimation rate controller that selectably controls a decimation filter based on the ratio of the input sampling rate to the output sampling rate. By adaptively controlling the decimation rate in the ASRC, a significant amount of area and power is saved. | 09-27-2012 |
