Publication number: 20200380633Abstract: A method and computer-readable storage device and apparatus for controlling a roadway resource are disclosed. For example, the method receives from a device associated with a vehicle a request to reach a target destination by a target arrival time and a maximum payment amount to reach the target destination by the target arrival time. The method next determining a route to the target destination and determines a roadway resource along the route that is controllable. The method then sends an instruction to the device associated with the vehicle, where the instruction indicates to navigate the vehicle along the route and controls the roadway resource to enable the vehicle to reach the target destination by the target arrival time.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 17, 2020Publication date: December 3, 2020Inventors: Brian S. Amento, Matti A. Hiltunen, Kaustubh Joshi, David P. Kormann, Rajesh Krishna Panta, Kermit Hal Purdy, Thomas M. Smith, Alex Varshavsky, Svetlana Yarosh

Publication number: 20100094976Abstract: Embodiments of the invention allow the convenient transmission of URLs or content corresponding to URLs from a WAP/i-mode-enabled mobile device to any other device across a network. In an embodiment, a URL corresponding to content accessed by WAP/i-mode-enabled mobile device is transmitted to an application server. The WAP/i-mode-enabled mobile device further transmits a destination address for the content to the application server. The application server then transmits the URL corresponding to the content to the destination address. The URL can then be used to render the corresponding content at the destination address. In another embodiment, a URL corresponding to content accessed by the WAP/i-mode-enabled mobile device is transmitted to an application server. The WAP/i-mode-enabled mobile device further transmits a destination address for the content to the application server. The application server then fetches the content corresponding to the URL and transmits the content to the destination device.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 15, 2009Publication date: April 15, 2010Inventors: Steven T. Kanefsky, Michael Kocheisen, David P. Kormann, Bernard S. Renger

Patent number: 7334126Abstract: The present invention provides authorized users access to sensitive information on internal servers inside a firewall while protecting the information from others. A strong client authentication mechanism is layered on top of a secure communication protocol to allow legitimate users access to an internal server from outside the firewall. A proxy is provided with an external component outside the firewall and an internal component inside the firewall, with a control communication channel established between the two. The external component forwards messages through the firewall to the internal component which handles user authentication and acts as a proxy between the user and the internal servers. Where the returned resource contains document hyperlinks, the links are translated into references to the proxy, permitting the user a seamless experience that is almost exactly the same whether the user is inside or outside the firewall.Type: GrantFiled: February 1, 2000Date of Patent: February 19, 2008Assignee: AT&T Corp.Inventors: Christian A. Gilmore, David P. Kormann, Aviel D. Rubin

Patent number: 6987841Abstract: The present invention is a method and system for recording a communication over a public network upon the request of a communicating party. The request is received for the recording service from a first communicating party and an identification number, received from the first communicating party, is verified. A number is received for a second communicating party from the first communicating party and a connection for a communication between the first and second communicating parties is established. Finally a recording of the communication is made and, after the completion of the communication is detected, the recording is converted to a standard audio file. The system may provide additional information with the recording, such as a time/date stamp and the telephone numbers associated with the communication, in order to authenticate the call.Type: GrantFiled: April 11, 2003Date of Patent: January 17, 2006Assignee: AT&T Corp.Inventors: Simon D. Byers, Howard Paul Katseff, David P. Kormann, Kermit Hal Purdy, Vaidyanathan Ramaswami

Publication number: 20040123139Abstract: Traffic over a secure link or tunnel is filtered to block packets that do not conform to specified requirements for the tunnel. In one embodiment, a private network, such as an ISP network, includes a filter for blocking packets not associated with an IPSec VPN tunnel. The ISP network and/or one or both of the tunnel endpoints can include monitoring modules for detecting the presence of packets that should have been blocked by the filter.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 18, 2002Publication date: June 24, 2004Applicant: AT&T Corp.Inventors: William A. Aiello, Steven Michael Bellovin, Evan Stephen Crandall, Alan Edward Kaplan, David P. Kormann, Aviel D. Rubin, Norman Loren Schryer
