20120265743PERSISTING OF A LOW LATENCY IN-MEMORY DATABASE - Processing is provided for operating an in-memory database, wherein transaction data is stored by a persistence buffer in an FIFO queue, and update processor subsequently: waits for a trigger; extracts the last transactional data associated with a single transaction of the in-memory database from the FIFO memory queue; determines if the transaction data includes updates to data fields in the in-memory database which were already processed; and if not, then stores the extracted transaction data to a store queue, remembering the fields updated in the in-memory database, or otherwise updates the store queue with the extracted transaction data. The process continues until the extracting is complete, and the content of the store queue is periodically written into a persistent storage device.10-18-2012

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20110150361 Hidden Image Method and Hidden Image Apparatus - A hidden image method comprising forming a set of carrier devices which when overlayed upon one another and aligned will reveal N images within a common area, the set of carrier devices being formed by: forming N latent images from respective ones of the N images and respective ones of N line decoders to hide the N images, each latent image being decodeable by the decoder from which the latent image is formed to reveal the image the latent image hides, the N latent images further formed such that the lines of the decoders cross one another within the common area at line angles displaced relative to one another so as to define a single axis of alignment; and forming each carrier device of the set of carrier devices by combining at least two items selected from the set of latent images and decoders so as not to decode any of the hidden images and such that the set of carrier devices includes all the latent images and all the decoders, whereby the set of carrier devices will reveal the N hidden images within the common area when overlayed upon one another and aligned. Also disclosed are a line decoder comprising a plurality of lines which diverge from one another, a line decoder comprising a plurality of lines at least some of which have an increasing average width from one end to another, a line decoder comprising at least some lines having non-integer line widths.06-23-2011
20110187747 METHOD OF DECODING ON AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE - A hidden image method comprising: obtaining a first image and a second image, the first and second images providing between them a hidden image and a decoder such that a hidden image is decoded by the decoder when the first image and the second image are superposed at least one decoding position; printing the first image onto a light transmissive substrate to produce a printed substrate; displaying the second image on an electronic display; and superposing the printed substrate relative to the display at a decoding position to decode the hidden image.08-04-2011
