  • Patent number: 9176712
    Abstract: Node Grouped Data Marshalling may involve converting programming objects to marshalled data. A marshaller application may determine a class type for each of the programming objects to be marshalled. Two or more of the objects may be of the same class type and may derive from a shared base class. The marshalling application may group of the objects based on the objects' class types. The objects may be marshalled using a set of key-value pairs where keys may identify the class type of an object and where the values may represent the contents of the object and may itself be a set of key-value pairs. A marshalling application may generate a textual representation of the objects such that each grouping of class types is identified by a single key name.

  • Patent number: 7827400
    Abstract: A system and method for establishing a mutually authenticated secure link between a mobile platform system and a remote system is provided. An onboard computer system (OCS) generates a dynamic certificate and digitally signs the dynamic certificate with a static certificate. The dynamic certificate is transmitted to a remote central computer system (CCS). The CCS verifies that the dynamic certificate is from a trusted source and sends a return dynamic certificate electronically signed with the static certificate to the OCS. The OCS verifies the return dynamic certificate is from the CCS, thereby establishing a mutually authenticated secure link between the OCS and the CCS.

  • Patent number: 5738898
    Abstract: Cyclodextrin, a base and water are mixed with egg yolk to reduce the cholesterol content of the egg yolk. The cholesterol is removed as a complex of cyclodextrin while the base prevents loss of protein from the egg yolk. The amount of base added is sufficient to adjust the pH to between 7.5 and 12.

  • Patent number: 5484624
    Abstract: A method to extract egg material cholesterol and esters thereof based on the specific affinity of a cyclodextrin, particularly .beta.-cyclodextrin. The method consists of a sequence of steps: pH adjustment, dilution with distilled water, heating, mixing, cooling, and centrifugation. The method removed about 95-96% of total egg yolk cholesterol and esters without removing or damaging other egg yolk components. Protein solubility, sponge cake volume and color were the same for a control and the reduced cholesterol egg material.
