Patent number: 9864652Abstract: Embodiments of systems and methods for archive verification are disclosed. More specifically, embodiments of this archive verification can comprise loading media into a drive and reading data from the media to verify that the media and data on the media can be read. In one embodiment, media can be loaded into a drive and read according to a verification policy. As part of verifying that media and data on media can be read, read errors or other verification data associated with media can be obtained. Using this verification data a result for the media may be determined.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 2016Date of Patent: January 9, 2018Assignee: KIP CR P1 LPInventors: Michael R. Foster, Jeffrey Ricks Stripling

Patent number: 9442795Abstract: Systems, methods and apparatus for archive verification including the verification of media in a library, are disclosed. More specifically, a method of archive verification may include performing an initial verification on a first media in a first drive and performing a subsequent verification on the first media in a second drive not used for the initial verification, and comparing the results of the initial verification and the subsequent verification. Embodiments may further perform an initial verification of the readability of a second tape media and subsequent verification of the readability for the second tape media, and compare the results of the initial verification to the results of the subsequent verification to determine the tape drive health, the efficacy of the first tape media or the second tape media, the efficacy of the first tape drive or the second tape drive, or whether to replace a tape media.Type: GrantFiled: November 27, 2013Date of Patent: September 13, 2016Assignee: KIP CR P1 LPInventors: Jeffrey Ricks Stripling, Robert C. Sims

Patent number: 8631281Abstract: Systems, methods and apparatus for archive verification including the verification of media in a library, are disclosed. More specifically, a method of archive verification may include performing an initial verification on a set of media to obtain an initial result for each of the media. Based on the results of the initial verification a subsequent set of media may be selected for subsequent verification utilizing a set of rules. A subsequent verification may then be performed on each of the subsequent set of media. Based on the results of the subsequent verification it can then be attempted to determine if any of the media require still require subsequent verification using the set of rules. This iterative process may continue until no media need any subsequent verification.Type: GrantFiled: August 23, 2010Date of Patent: January 14, 2014Assignee: KIP CR P1 LPInventors: Jeffrey Ricks Stripling, Robert C.

Publication number: 20040080544Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for improving the ease with which owners of numeric keypad based devices access a network. Numeric keypads have ten numeric keys and may optionally have additional keys and events. This invention improves access by using the keys already on the numeric keypad device instead of forcing the user to generate alphanumeric strings. The user enters numeric strings that a device translates into network locations using the Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) format. The URI is resolved into data that is accessed across the network and returned to the user. This invention allows users of telephones, televisions, automated teller machines and other similar devices known to those having ordinary skill in the art to more easily access the Internet and other similar networks.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 29, 2002Publication date: April 29, 2004Inventor: Jeffrey Ricks Stripling

Patent number: 5982351Abstract: In an electronic device having a keyboard (120) and a display (116), a processing system (106) displays on the display a message entered through the keyboard and selects a supplemental mode, in response to entry of a first predetermined key sequence by a user. The supplemental mode is selected in accordance with the first predetermined key sequence, from at least one of a group of supplemental modes included in the electronic device. The group of supplemental modes comprise an acronym mode (200), a supplemental scrolling keyboard mode (300), a predictive character pairing mode (301), a predictive menuing mode (400), and a bi-directional delete mode (500). The electronic device operates in accordance with the supplemental mode until an occurrence of at least one of (a) the user entering a second predetermined key sequence and (b) the supplemental mode executing to completion.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 1997Date of Patent: November 9, 1999Assignee: Motorola, Inc.Inventors: Richard Anthony Maximillian White, Jeffrey Ricks Stripling, Ardsley Pihl Congdon, Jr., David Patrick Kilp, Mark Allan Beckwith, Keith Thomas Grandin, Nickolaos Pete Lagen
