20120102523 | System and method for providing access to data using customer profiles - A system and method for scheduling the receipt of desired movies and other forms of data from a network which simultaneously distributes many sources of such data to many customers, as in a cable television system. Customer profiles are developed for the recipient describing how important certain characteristics of the broadcast video program, movie or other data are to each customer. From these profiles, an “agreement matrix” is calculated by comparing the recipient's profiles to the actual profiles of the characteristics of the available video programs, movies, or other data. The agreement matrix thus characterizes the attractiveness of each video program, movie, or other data to each prospective customer. “Virtual” channels are generated from the agreement matrix to produce a series of video or data programming which will provide the greatest satisfaction to each customer. Feedback paths are also provided so that the customer's profiles and/or the profiles of the video programs or other data may be modified to reflect actual usage. Kiosks are also developed which assist customers in the selection of videos, music, books, and the like in accordance with the customer's objective profiles. | 04-26-2012 |

20100065629 | TRANSACTION SECURED IN AN UNTRUSTED ENVIRONMENT - To secure communications in an untrusted environment for a commercial transaction on an account between the account's holder and a merchant, an identifier and a signature can be derived from a token. The identifier is associated by use of a directory with an application context that identifies the account's issuer. The merchant will provide the signature to the account's issuer, or agent thereof, to be verified. In practice, a merchant to the identified issuer of an account an authorization request message for a transaction that includes a signature and an identifier for the account upon which the transaction is to be conducted. The account's issuer responds with an authorization response message that includes an indicator that the signature has been verified. After notice of the signature's verification, the transaction on the account is deemed authorized and the merchant can proceed. | 03-18-2010 |

20160116223 | FERROHYDRODYNAMIC THERMAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND METHOD - A ferrohydrodynamic thermal management system is described and claimed. At least one ferrohydrodynamic pump is utilized to motivate a ferrofluid along a fluid communication channel. A primary heat exchanger transfers thermal energy from a system to be thermally managed to the ferrofluid, and a secondary heat exchanger transfers thermal energy from the ferrofluid to an external heat sink. The ferrofluid is motivated within the fluid communication channel by at least one time-varying magnetic field produced by at least one electromagnet, which may be driven by a time-varying electromagnet drive signal such that the motivation of the ferrofluid within the fluid communication channel is controlled in a desired fashion. The amount of thermal energy, or heat, removed from the system to be thermally managed is controllable and may be controlled by a controller that produces a desired time-varying electrical drive signal. | 04-28-2016 |
