Abstract: An application server enables a secure network interaction. The application server receives a request for the secure network interaction from a third-party server. In response, the application server determines a security procedure, such as an authentication procedure, and a client corresponding to the secure network interaction. The client includes a secure desktop agent (SDA). The application server sends a message to the client that activates the SDA. The SDA establishes a secure connection with the application server. The SDA receives user credentials in a secure desktop environment and transmits them to the application server over the secure connection. The application verifies the user credentials and sends a digitally-signed authenticated response to the third-party server.

Abstract: In a telecommunications network (1), a signal transfer point (10) receives an Initial Address Message (IAM) generated by an originating service switching point (12) according to a call from an originating subscriber (20). The IAM includes a destination number associated with a destination subscriber (22). If the destination number has not been ported, the signal transfer point (10) sends a return message to the originating service switching point (12) indicating that no changes are to be made to the IAM. As a result, the originating service switching point (12) forwards the IAM to a destination service switching point (13) for processing of the call. If the destination number has been ported, the signal transfer point (10) performs a local number portability look-up in a database (24). The signal transfer point (10) obtains a redirection number from the database (24) for transfer in a return message to the originating service switching point (16).

Abstract: A general purpose pattern recognition method and apparatus comprises a hierarchical network of basic recognizers, each basic recognizer being capable of discriminating a particular feature at a lower level and providing outputs for higher levels of abstraction. In a learning mode, a series of sample patterns having a feature are presented as input along with several near-miss patterns. The pattern recognition apparatus learns to recognize the feature by keeping track of which basic recognizers detect patterns containing the feature. In a recognition mode, the invention determines if a presented pattern has the feature by polling the basic recognizers. A summation algorithm calculates the likelihood that the presented pattern has a particular feature.
