Title: System and method for mitigating damage to an insured property
Inventor: GROSS PAUL
IPC: G06Q40/08
Filed: 2007-03-01
Abstract: In an exemplary embodiment, a server system includes a user interface that allows a first user (such as a claim administrator or an insurance carrier) to submit the date/time that a contractor is dispatched to an insured property and that allows a second user (such as a claim administrator or the contractor) to submit the date/time that the contractor arrives at the insured property. If the date/time that the contractor arrives at the insured property is not submitted within a specified period of time from the date/time that the contractor is dispatched to the insured property, the server system initiates the transmission of one or more automated reminder messages to the contractor. As such, the contractor's arrival at the insured property is expedited to thereby mitigate damage to the insured property.

Title: Method and system for offset matching
Inventor: WEINGARD MARK ANDREW ARISTOTLE
IPC: G06Q40/04
Filed: 2007-05-03
Abstract: The trading of interest rate swaps or otherinterest rate derivatives gives rise to mismatch exposure. This can be offset by a series of FRA trades. Rather than conducting a series of exposure neutral trades, FRAs can be bought or sold for the entire amount of a trader's reset exposure. To hedge the offset trades, a series of IMM FRA trades are conducted. The relative size of the IMM contracts will be determined by the distance in time from the IMM quarterly contract settlement date. A system is disclosed for performing offset trades and IMM  hedges. The embodiments allow for non-neutral trading and subsequent heging brings trading back to a neutral position.

Patent CA-2592315-A1 (CA)
Title: System and method for authorized digital content distribution
Inventor: WULLERT JOHN R II
IPC: G06F21/62
Filed: 2006-01-26
Abstract: A digital content distribution system uses a Digital Rights Management (DRM) Controller that performs a set of arbitrary tests against the transfer request from one user to another such as user A to user B. Assuming these tests are successful, the DRM Controller sends an encryption key to transferring user A. This encryption key E is taken from a table of encryption key/hash pairs which have been provided to the DRM Controller by an external authority such as the content rights holder. User A encrypts the content using the key provided by the DRM Controller and then optionally calculates a hash over the encrypted form of the content E(X) and returns this value to the DRM Controller. On checking the returned hash against the hash from the table the DRM Controller knows that user A does indeed have the digital content X in good condition. The DRM Controller then instructs both users A and B that the transfer may proceed. The encrypted form of the content E(X) is transferred from A to B. Once the content transfer has completed B ensures that the received content has been physically written to non-volatile storage (to account for crashes etc. during the next step). B then calculates a hash over the received content and returns this value to the DRM Controller. If this value matches the value previously given then the transfer has been successful and the DRM Controller updates whatever central records are appropriate, while also returning a decrypt key to B to allow it to decrypt the content.
