Title: Method and system for peer-to-peer authorization
Inventor: WARDROP PATRICK R
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2003-11-14
Abstract: An authorization mechanism within a peer-to-peer network is presented. A central server that operates a centralized data repository search engine within a peer-to-peer network performs authentication and authorization operations with respect to users that access its services. A user at a peer node reviews peer-to-peer search results that have been gathered and returned by the centralized search engine. When the user desires to retrieve a file from another peer node, the user~s peer node must obtain an authorization token from the central server, which authenticates the user or has previously authenticated the user. The user~s peer node then presents the authorization token along with a request to retrieve the file from the other peer node. After verifying the authorization token, the other peer node responds with the requested file. If the other peer node cannot verify the authorization token then the other peer node denies access to the file.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un instrument chirurgical principalement destiné à être utilisé dans la chirurgie plastique endoscopique, et conçu pour être inséré dans une incision pour pénétrer ensuite dans le tissu sous-cutané, la graisse, le fascia ou un muscle (STFFM) par une incision à accès éloignée, pour tenir le STFFM et pour permettre son déplacement vers un autre endroit. Le STFFM est tenu de préférence par une aiguille dans laquelle un fil a été passé, ledit fil étant bloqué par insertion de celui-ci dans un crochet, et ce, dans un site situé à l'intérieur de la peau, à distance de l'ouverture. Il est ainsi possible de déplacer le STFFM dans n'importe quelle direction, mais le plus souvent vers l'incision alors que la partie insérée de l'instrument est enlevée. Un clamp à vide externe est prévu, pour faciliter l'engagement dans la partie du STFFM à suturer. L'instrument peut être utilisé pour la chirurgie de rajeunissement facial, la chirurgie médiofaciale, la chirurgie des sourcils, l'étirement du menton, la réduction de la tonsure, la mastopexie endoscopique, le lifting de cuisse endoscopique, la lipectomie endoscopique, et pour toute autre technique pour laquelle on souhaite déplacer le STFFM d'un endroit vers un autre, comme par exemple, dans la correction de résultats de liposuccion indésirables.
