Abstract: The invention relates to a method of operating with content items, generating of a user preference profile, and introducing new content items in a community-based recommendation system. A virtual user terminal (115) determines a new user preference profile when detecting the availability of a new content item. The virtual user terminal (115) comprises an initialization processor (123) which sets a preference value in the user preference profile for the new content item. The virtual user terminal (115) further comprises a relation processor (125) which determines related content items, and a profile processor (127), which sets preference values in the user preference profile associated with the at least one related content item. Hence, an association is formed between the first content item and the related content items, thereby linking the new content item to existing content items, and thus increasing the probability that the new content item is recommended.

IPC: B67C3/00
Filed: 2003-06-19
Abstract: L'invention concerne une machine de remplissage stérile et un procédé associé permettant de remplir un contenant d'une substance dans des conditions stériles. Ledit contenant comprend un bouchon rescellable à chaud et une cavité destinée à recevoir la substance. Les contenants vides scellés sont exposés à un rayonnement pouvant passer à travers le bouchon et pénétrer dans la cavité pour stériliser le contenant. Les contenants stérilisés sont transportés à travers une chambre à faisceau d'électrons, dans laquelle un faisceau d'électrons est dirigé sur une surface perçable du bouchon de façon à stériliser cette surface. La chambre à faisceau d'électrons comprend une aiguille qui est insérée dans le bouchon de façon à percer la surface perçable stérilisée susmentionnée et injecter la substance dans la cavité du contenant. L'aiguille est ensuite retirée du bouchon et le contenant rempli est transporté hors de la chambre à faisceau d'électrons. De l'énergie laser est émise sur la surface du bouchon qui a été percée par l'aiguille de façon à fondre la matière du bouchon et resceller hermétiquement celui-ci.

Abstract: The present invention provides systems and methods for secure transaction
management and electronic rights protection. Electronic appliances such as
computers equipped in accordance with the present invention help to ensure that
information is accessed and used only in authorized ways, and maintain the
integrity, availability, and/or confidentiality of the information. Such electronic
appliances provide a distributed virtual distribution environment (VDE) that may
enforce a secure chain of handling and control, for example, to control and/or
meter or otherwise monitor use of electronically stored or disseminated
information. Such a virtual distribution environment may be used to protect rights
of various participants in electronic commerce and other electronic or electronic-facilitated
transactions. Distributed and other operating systems, environments and
architectures, such as, for example, those using tamper-resistant hardware-based
processors, may establish security at each node. These techniques may be used
to support an all-electronic information distribution, for example, the utilizing the
"electronic higher".
Patent EP-1445919-A2 (EP)
Inventor: FAN JASON C
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2001-03-02
Abstract: A dual addressing mode is described in which reduced-length
addresses (referred to as short addresses) are substituted for standard
addresses (referred to as long addresses) for traffic whose source or
destination is internal to a given virtual network topology. The required length
of short addresses used for a given virtual topology is dependent on the
number of devices reachable within the topology. For a virtual topology with
less than 256 addressable devices, for example, 8-bit short addresses can be
used. When a node within the virtual network sees a packet with a short
destination address in the header, the node understands the address to be
within the virtual network and routes the packet accordingly. If a source
address is a short address, the virtual network can identify the source within
the virtual network. For packets originating in the virtual network whose
destination is also in the virtual network, both the source and destination
addresses can be short addresses. Thus, devices within a virtual network
topology are addressable in a dual manner on the data link layer and/or
network layer by traffic flowing internal to, or private to, the virtual network.
Also described is a technique for automatically assigning source addresses to
devices within the virtual network.
