Title: Architecture for distributed sending of media data
Inventor: BALDWIN JAMES A
IPC: H04N7/173
Filed: 2004-09-08
Abstract: Media data is distributed across multiple devices, and decentralized media data dissemination architecture is farmed. Multiple respective senders are associated with multiple respective distributed portions of the media data. Multiple schedulers are associated with clients and are capable of scheduling the sending of media data thereto. Schedulers formulate send requests that stipulate particular media data portions and designate destination clients. These send requests are transmitted to the multiple senders in accordance with the associated respective distributed portions in conjunction with the stipulated particular media data portion of each send request. The senders are capable of sending the stipulated particular media data portions of the send requests to the designated destination clients without routing through the schedulers. In a described implementation, a sender and a scheduler are present on each device of the multiple devices.

Title: Digital-signed digital document exchange supporting method and information processor
Inventor: KAJI TADASHI
IPC: H04L9/32
Filed: 2005-01-27
Abstract: In response to a sign request including a digital document from a document-creating device 10, a digital-signed-document exchange supporting server 30 canonicalizes the digital document , calculates a digest value thereof and returns the digest value to the document creating device. When the document-creating device transmits a digital sign created by encrypting the digest value to the digital-signed-digital document exchange-supporting server 30, the digital-signed-digital document exchange-supporting server 30 creates a digital-signed document from the digital sign and the digital document and returns the document to the document-creating device. On the other hand, in response to a validation request including a digital-signed-digital document and a public key from a sign validating device 20, the digital-signed-digital document exchange supporting server 30 compares a value resulting from the decryption of the digital sign with the public key and a digest value of the digital document canonicalized and returns the result to the sign validating device.

Title: Packaging system
Inventor: BRANCH KEVIN D
IPC: A61L2/20
Filed: 2003-09-15
Abstract: A packaging system for hydrating sterile devices without comprising the integrity of the sterilization. The packaging system may include an enclosur e (12) for enclosing a device (19) requiring hydration, a container (16) containing a hydrate, a base (20) located within the interior of the enclosu re and an activating member (14) located within the interior of the enclosure. The container and the device may be located within a receptacle (18). The receptacle may rest on the base and the activating member may be affixed on top of the receptacle. A force may be exerted on an exterior portion of the enclosure such that the activating member pushes on the receptacle and crush es or ruptures the container. The hydrate located within the container is then released to the device, thereby hydrating the device without breaking the se al of the enclosure. The sterilized environment is therefore maintained and the device is hydrated.
