Title: Intelligent synchronization for a media player
Inventor: ROBBIN JEFFREY L
IPC: G10L19/00
Filed: 2002-10-17
Abstract: Improved techniques for interaction between a host computer (e.g., personal computer) and a media player are disclosed. According to one aspect, interaction between a host computer and a media player, such as automatic synchronization of media contents stored on a media player with media contents stored on a host computer, can be restricted. In one implementation, a given media player is able to automatically interact only with a designated host computer. According to another aspect, synchronization can be automatically initiated and performed upon connection of a data link between the media player and the host computer. According to still another aspect, synchronization is able to be achieved with a reduced amount of data transfer between the host computer and the media device. According to yet another aspect, management of media items residing on a media player can be performed at and by a host computer for the media player. According to still yet another aspect, media content can be played by a media player in accordance with quality settings established for the media content at the host computer. In one implementation, the quality settings can be established for the media content on a media item by media item basis.
Patent CA-2464583-A1 (CA)
Title: Systems and methods for providing dynamic price improvement
Inventor: JOHNSON JIM
IPC: G06Q40/00
Filed: 2004-04-16
Abstract: A system and method is provided to enable traders to price improve on an item at an amount less than a predetermined pricing increment. Traders can improve on the price of the item using different price improvement levels (e.g., four different levels). The price improvement according to the invention is a dynamic price improvement, which enables a dynamic order to maintain a predetermined position in a trading stack relative to other orders in the stack. The dynamic order may maintain its position in the trading stack by adjusting (e.g., increasing or decreasing) its price improvement level depending on market conditions.      For example, a dynamic order may increases its price improvement level such that it stays at least one level ahead of the next best order in the trading stack. If the level cannot be further increased, the dynamic order may use its timestamp to maintain its position in the stack.
Patent CA-2466858-A1 (CA)
Title: Foamed article with absorbing characteristics on one side and non-absorbing characteristics on the other side and method for producing same
Inventor: OWENSBY JOSEPH E
IPC: B29C44/56
Filed: 2004-05-11
Abstract: There is provided a multi-layered foamed article. The foam article has a layer of foam material on either side of an inner peel layer disposed roughly in the middle of the foam. The portion of the foam in closest proximity to the peel layer is subjected to the greatest amount of heat during extrusion forming mostly large open cell foam. The foam near the surface of the multiplayer foam article is cooled by the atmosphere or contact with cooling surfaces and comprises mostly small closed-cell foam. There is also provided a method for making a multi- layer foamed article by co-extruding an inner peel layer sandwiched between two expanded layers of a foam material. Each of the expanded foam layers on either side of the peel layer of the article is easily peeled or stripped from the peel inner layer and the multi-layer article is converted into a foamed article with absorbing characteristics on one side and non-absorbing characteristics on the other side. Thus, the foam is predominantly open-cell on one side of the structure and predominantly closed-cell on the opposing side. The open-cell portion of the article is highly absorbent and easily soaks up liquids. The closed cell portion of the foam article acts as a waterproof layer preventing liquid from moving all the way through the thickness of the foam. After blowing the polymer melt, the extrusion product comprises a foam article with a peel layer disposed roughly in the middle of the foam. A preferred embodiment of the multi-layer article is polystyrene foam for the two outer layers and a polyethylene film as the inner peel layer.

Patent CA-2480897-A1 (CA)
Inventor: SUDHIR KUNNATH
IPC: H04L69/40
Filed: 2003-03-25
Abstract: A method and system for Mobile Internet Protocol (EP) device redundancy. As mobile devices (78) roam (84) away from a home network (80) and change a connective status, mobility binding records are sent to a multicast network address on the home network. The multicast network address multicasts the mobility binding records to other active Mobile IP home agent control nodes, standby home agent control nodes and standby home agents on the home network.  The method and system allows standby home agent control nodes or standby home agents to be transparently switched for active home agent control nodes or active home agents that fail without downloading or uploading large numbers of mobility binding records after a failure. The method and system may also help reduce failed calls (e.g., data sessions including Voice over IP (VoIP), H.323, etc.), network congestion and improve user satisfaction in Mobile IP  systems.
