  • Patent number: 9519478
    Abstract: Systems and methods for managing multiple versions of applications executing on servers in a server pool are provided. A request to generate new session data for a transaction requested by a user is received by a first server executing a first version of an application. A determination is made that the first version of the application is unsuitable to process the request. An identity of a second server executing a second version of the application is requested by the first server in a server pool comprising one or more servers, and an appropriate second server is selected. The first server transmits a hypertext transfer protocol proxy request to the selected second server, which generates the new session data.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9459860
    Abstract: Systems and methods for managing multiple versions of applications executing on servers in a server pool are provided. A first server executing a first version of an application loads session data associated with a second, different version of the application. An error is detected based on the difference between the first version and the second version. A second server executing the second version of the application is selected by the first server in a server pool comprising one or more servers. The first server transmits a hypertext transfer protocol proxy request to the selected second server, which successfully processes the session data and handles the request without error.

  • Patent number: 8076924
    Abstract: This invention relates to a method and system for remote detection of a targeted substance by the appropriate application of a probing signal that induces molecular resonance in the target substance to create an identifiable signature or response. In the preferred embodiment, signals transmitted are an Infrared laser beam, amplitude modulated in the range of 100 kHz frequency. The probing signal stimulates molecular resonance of the target substance which produces characteristic electron signal responses that are detected by IR detectors. A software program is used to process the electrical response signals and to compare them with electrical response signals stored in a database of known substances, thus allowing the target substance to be identified. The system may also be used to locate targeted substances. Also disclosed is an artificial ground device that provides a positive ground that provides consistent responses.
