20080215672System, Method, and Computer Program Product for a Scalable, Configurable, Client/Server, Cross-Platform Browser for Mobile Devices - Described herein are systems, methods, computer program products, and combinations and sub-combinations thereof, for enabling web content (as well as other objects) to be loaded on mobile devices (as well as other types of devices), and for users of mobile devices to operate with such web content on their mobile devices in an interactive manner while in an off-line mode.09-04-2008
20080319917Bidding for position placement in a search result on time-limited resources - A method, computer program product, and system are provided for bidding for position placement in a search result on time-limited resources. For example, an embodiment of the method includes receiving a bid for position placement of the time-limited resource in the search result, calculating the bid based on historical data of the time-limited resource, and ordering the search result based on the bid and relevance between a search term and attributes of the time-limited resource. In receiving the bid, the method can vary an amount of the bid for one or more time periods of interest, thus allowing flexibility for an owner/manager of the resource to offer bids for various time periods. The calculation of the bid is based on historical data of the resource, which can assess a likelihood that a consumer will click on a link associated with the resource, inquire further information on the resource, or book the resource. In turn, the search result can order one or more results from the search primarily on relevance between a number of similarities between inquiry and characteristics of the resource and secondarily on bid amount. One advantage of this method, among others, is that the method provides relevancy in a bid for placement advertising model and efficiently facilitates the bidding process for advertisers with multiple resources.12-25-2008

20100131953Method and System for Hardware Feedback in Transactional Memory - Multi-threaded, transactional memory systems may allow concurrent execution of critical sections as speculative transactions. These transactions may abort due to contention among threads. Hardware feedback mechanisms may detect information about aborts and provide that information to software, hardware, or hybrid software/hardware contention management mechanisms. For example, they may detect occurrences of transactional aborts or conditions that may result in transactional aborts, and may update local readable registers or other storage entities (e.g., performance counters) with relevant contention information. This information may include identifying data (e.g., information outlining abort relationships between the processor and other specific physical or logical processors) and/or tallied data (e.g., values of event counters reflecting the number of aborted attempts by the current thread or the resources consumed by those attempts). This contention information may be accessible by contention management mechanisms to inform contention management decisions (e.g. whether to revert transactions to mutual exclusion, delay retries, etc.).05-27-2010

20100313283USES OF GDNF AND GDNF RECEPTOR - GDNFRα, GDNFRα extracellular domain (ECD), GDNFRα variants, chimeric GDNFRα (e.g., GDNFRα immunoadhesin), and antibodies which bind thereto (including agonist and neutralizing antibodies) are disclosed. Various uses for these molecules are described, including methods to modulate cell activity and survival by response to GDNFRα-ligands, for example GDNF, by providing GDNFRα to the cell. Also provided are methods for using GDNFRα, GDNF, or agonists thereof, separately or in complex, to treat kidney diseases.12-09-2010

20100012853METHOD FOR PRE-IDENTIFICATION OF SPECTRAL OVERLAPS WITHIN FLUORESCENT DYE AND DETECTOR COMBINATIONS USED IN FLOW CYTOMETRY - This invention relates to the field of flow cytometry. It provides methods for identifying important dye-detector spectral overlaps for use in designing flow cytometry experiments. It further provides methods for quantifying the impact of spectral overlaps on dye selection and detector selection, the methods including the steps of: a) obtaining spectra of a dye; b) obtaining a laser configuration and an optical filter configuration of a detector; c) obtaining a spectrum yield value; and d) ranking the spectrum yield value.01-21-2010
20100161561METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DATA ARCHIVING - Disclosed is a method and system for archiving data. A server computer (or any computing device) receives data transmitted over a network from a client computer, wherein at least some of the data was previously collected by a scientific instrument during an experiment. After receiving the data, the server computer updates (e.g., creates) an index for the received data, archives the received data, and automatically transmits a notification to the client computer that the received data has been archived.06-24-2010
20110029519Population clustering through density-based merging - A method and/or system for analyzing data using population clustering through density based merging.02-03-2011
