20110053123 | METHOD FOR TEACHING LANGUAGE PRONUNCIATION AND SPELLING - The system is a comprehensive software application using audio-visual interactive multimedia components that aids users in learning how to effectively speak and write in a new language. The system combines simultaneous audio and video streams, an effective multimedia fusion to help language learners retain auditory and visual information. The system also applies an array of memory-retention techniques aiding the user to accurately comprehend spoken and written language information. The application uses memory-aid techniques such as, but not limited to, color-association, text (word, phrase, sentence) presentation, corresponding image association, humor-driven retention and rhythm. The whole system, therefore, is a powerful and exceptionally effective language teaching tool, a synthesis of sights, sounds and memory enhancing features, creating a rich and complete sensory learning experience. | 03-03-2011 |

20130166670 | NETWORKED STORAGE SYSTEM AND METHOD INCLUDING PRIVATE DATA NETWORK - A networked storage system includes a source mass storage device coupled to a client via a storage area network (SAN). A target mass storage device is coupled to the source mass storage device via a private data network. The source mass storage device stores source data which is provided to the client via the SAN in response to a request by the client to read the data. If the request is to copy or move the source data, however, the source mass storage device determines an identifier for the target mass storage device and directly provides, based on the identifier, the source data to the target mass storage device via the private data network. The transfer via the private data network bypasses the client and the SAN. | 06-27-2013 |

20110061988 | IMPROVEMENTS RELATING TO BANKNOTE VALIDATION - A banknote validation arranged to discriminate between real and false banknotes is described. The valuator comprises: a light source arranged to emit light in the non-visible spectrum onto a banknote being validated, the emitted light including an ultraviolet (1O nm to 400 nm) or intra red (800 run-1 00000 nm) wavelength of light; a broadband optical light sensor arranged to sense a relatively broad band of visible light spectrum wavelengths of light emitted by fluorescence from the banknote in response to the banknote being irradiated with the non-visible spectrum wavelengths of light; and an optical filter positioned between the banknote and the sensor and arranged to prevent illumination of the sensor with reflected or transmitted non-fluoresced light from the light source, the optical filter having a −3 db cut off point selected such that the light emitted from the light source, having a wavelength closest to the visible light spectrum wavelengths of light, is filtered. | 03-17-2011 |

20080301159 | PARTITIONING A NETWORK INTO SUB-NETWORKS BASED ON USER UTILITY - To perform a query, a set of nodes for an origin is loaded, it is determined if a node is a destination for each node of the set of nodes, and a path is recorded in response to the node being the destination. A hypothetical path is generated in response to the node not being the destination, it is determined if the hypothetical path exceeds a stopping rule, and the hypothetical path is recorded in response to the hypothetical path not exceeding the stopping rule. | 12-04-2008 |

20090106083 | DETERMINING A STOP FROM A LAYOVER IN A MULTI-STOP ITINERARY - To determine if an intermediate stop in a multistop travel itinerary is a layover or an intermediate destination, a passenger utility value is calculated for the intermediate stop and the passenger utility value for the intermediate stop is compared to a passenger utility for a layover. The intermediate stop is determined to be a layover in response to the passenger utility value for the intermediate stop being greater than or equal to the passenger utility for a layover and the intermediate stop is determined to be an intermediate destination in response to the passenger utility value for the intermediate stop being less than the passenger utility for a layover. | 04-23-2009 |
