Inventor: GINTER KARL L
IPC: G06Q40/00
Filed: 1996-02-13
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.

Inventor: CHO HYE-JUNG
IPC: B01J4/00
Filed: 2004-09-22
Abstract: A fluid pumping method for micro-fluidic devices uses gas bubbles to move fluid by light beams. The light beams are emitted to the fluid near the gas bubble through an optically transparent cover and correspondingly heat the fluid in the micro channels. The liquid temperature variation changes the surface tension of the gas bubble near the heated fluid side, therefore, a pressure gradient between the end portions of the gas bubble generates accordingly. By moving the light beams, the moved pressure difference will be achieved, which will drive the gas bubbles and pump the fluid. Such a fluid pumping can simplify the structure of a micro-fluidic device and eliminate heat loss because of using a controllable light beam.
