Filed: 2002-10-22
Abstract: A procurement system for procuring a plurality of subjects, comprises
a storage, a relation processor, a determining processor, and a bidding
processor. The storage is configured to store information on a price, a
function, and a quantity of each of the subjects. The relation processor is
configured to obtain a relation between prices and functions of the subjects,
based on the information stored in the storage. The determining processor is
configured to determine a priority, for at least one of the subjects each of
whose price is higher than a reference value which corresponds to the
function of the each subject. The priority is obtained from the relation
obtained by the relation processor. Further, the priority is determined based
on the quantity of the each subject stored in the storage and a divergence
between the price and the reference value of the each subject. The bidding
processor is configured to automatically call for a bid on the at least one of
the subjects in accordance with the priority determined by the determining
processor.

Abstract: A method and arrangement for communicating with a gaming machine is
disclosed. The gaming machine includes a first wireless transceiver. A portable data
unit includes a second wireless transceiver. In response to positioning the portable
data unit in proximity to the gaming machine, without inserting the portable data unit
into any portion of the gaming machine, a wireless transmission link is established
between the first and second wireless transceivers. The wireless transmission link
may, for example, be a radio (RF) link or an infrared (IR) link. Information is
transmitted between the portable data unit and the gaming machine via the wireless
transmission link for such purposes as cashless gaming, player tracking, game
customization, and data transfer.
