| 20080215631 | ENHANCING WEB EXPERIENCES USING BEHAVIORAL BIOMETRIC DATA - A computerized method that provides a Web page having control structures for gathering behavioral biometrics. The method can receive behavioral biometric data in accordance with the control structures and in accordance with interactions of a user with the Web page. Additionally, the method can compare the received behavioral biometric data with at least one set of previously established values. The user can be profiled based upon comparison results. This profiling can affect the manner in which Web pages are provided to the user as well as the content contained therein. | 09-04-2008 |
| 20080218475 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DYNAMICALLY MODIFYING WEB PAGE DISPLAY FOR MOBILE DEVICES - A method of dynamically modifying web page displays used in various mobile devices. The method uses a motion detection mechanism to detect whether the mobile device is moving or in motion and then modifies web page displays sent to the device based upon the sensor readings. As such, the method, system, and apparatus are capable of automatically modifying a display provided to a mobile device based upon a determination that the user and/or device are moving and/or in motion. In another aspect, the method, system, and apparatus are also capable of modifying the complexity of a display provided to a mobile device based upon the degree of movement and/or motion by the user and/or device. | 09-11-2008 |
| 20090006856 | ADAPTIVE AUTHENTICATION SOLUTION THAT REWARDS ALMOST CORRECT PASSWORDS AND THAT SIMULATES ACCESS FOR INCORRECT PASSWORDS - In the invention, incorrect authentication information for accessing at least one secured computing asset can be received. A similarity score between the incorrect authentication information and correct authentication information can be determined. One of many different access levels can be assigned to a computing session based upon the similarity score. Access consistent with the assigned access level can be granted. One access level can be an emulation access level that grants access to at least one simulated asset designed to mimic the secured asset. Access to the simulated asset can be provided in a fashion so that a user, who is likely an intruder, is unaware that they are not receiving the secured asset information. A tracking action can he optionally initiated against the intruder. Further, user behavior with the simulated session or a limited access session can be compared against a behavior profile to dynamically increase or decrease session permissions. | 01-01-2009 |
| 20090079833 | TECHNIQUE FOR ALLOWING THE MODIFICATION OF THE AUDIO CHARACTERISTICS OF ITEMS APPEARING IN AN INTERACTIVE VIDEO USING RFID TAGS - The present solution can include a method for allowing the selective modification of audio characteristics of items appearing in a video. In this method, a RFID tag can be loaded with audio characteristics specific to a sound-producing element. The RFID tag can then be attached to an item that corresponds to the sound-producing element. The video and audio of the area including the item can be recorded. The audio characteristics can be automatically obtained by scanning the RFID tag. The audio characteristics can then be embedded within the video so that the audio characteristics are available when the item appears in the video. | 03-26-2009 |
| 20100198919 | MESSAGE-BASED TECHNIQUE FOR SHARING DISTRIBUTION LIST CONTENTS WITHIN ELECTRONIC MESSAGING SYSTEMS - Prior to transmission, distribution list data associated with a user-defined distribution list can be embedded within an electronic message. The recipients of the electronic message should be members of an electronic communications system. The distribution list data can include a copy of the user-defined distribution list or a reference to a storage location containing the user-defined distribution list where access control policies can be applied. The electronic message can be conveyed to the recipients. In response to the user-selection of a user-defined distribution list during presentation of the electronic message, the recipient can be presented with distribution list options within a user interface. The distribution list options can represent actions to be performed upon the contents of the user-selected user-defined distribution list. Prior to execution of a user-selected distribution list option, the contents of the user-selected user-defined distribution list can be accessed using the embedded distribution list data. | 08-05-2010 |
| 20110178889 | A METHOD, MEDIUM, AND SYSTEM FOR ALLOCATING A TRANSACTION DISCOUNT DURING A COLLABORATIVE SHOPPING SESSION - A collaborative shopping group can be established within a social networking web site. This initially established group can consist of individuals with whom the establishing user has a social networking affiliation. After an initial establishment of the collaborative shopping group, each individual within the group is able to add additional individuals to the collaborative shopping group. A shared shopping cart can be established for the collaborative shopping group. A set of different members of the collaborative shopping group can individually and independently add items from a set of different e-commerce sites to the shared shopping cart. An e-commerce purchase of items in the shared shopping cart can be completed. The completed e-commerce purchase can receive a transaction discount greater than or equal to a sum of discounts that would have resulted from discrete purchases of the items of the shared shopping cart by the individuals of the collaborative shopping group. | 07-21-2011 |
| 20110179058 | ENABLING WORKFLOW AWARENESS WITHIN A BUSINESS PROCESS MANAGEMENT (BPM) SYSTEM - Enabling workflow awareness within a business process management (BPM) system can utilize a workflow awareness controller that can receive an instantiation request for a workflow. The workflow can be comprised of multiple workflow steps to be performed by the BPM system. From workflow metadata, workflow redundancies, at the instance or step level, can be determined with other workflow instances initiated prior to the receipt of the instantiation request. The workflow metadata can include records that uniquely represent the operating parameter values of the prior workflow instances. When a workflow redundancy exists, persistent workflow data corresponding to the workflow redundancy can be utilized during the performance of a workflow instance of the requested workflow within the BPM system. The persistent workflow data can replace the performance of one or more workflow steps of the workflow instance, which can reduce the redundant performance of the workflow steps for the requested workflow. | 07-21-2011 |
| 20110238458 | DYNAMICALLY OPTIMIZED DISTRIBUTED CLOUD COMPUTING-BASED BUSINESS PROCESS MANAGEMENT (BPM) SYSTEM - A workflow server can receive requests, each for a business process workflow conforming to a business process model. Each business process workflow can include a set of interdependent tasks. The workflow server can satisfy received requests by assigning tasks to different service providers that provide software services. Each of the tasks can be assigned to corresponding ones of the software services. For each task, the workflow server can also defines an allocated cost per software service, and a time allocation per software service for completing the corresponding one of the tasks. Different service providers, including those assigned to tasks, can receive information for ones of the tasks not directly assigned to them by the workflow server. The different service providers can then bid on these tasks. Wherein when bids are won, tasks for a business process flow can be reassigned based on winning bids. | 09-29-2011 |
