Abstract: Content such as advertisements received into a mobile device may be more appropriately displayed on an alternative device remote from the mobile device. When ad content is received into the mobile device, the user may perform a physical gesture such as movement of the device or an associated motion sensor. The physical gesture is analyzed in the mobile device and causes the ad content to be redirected to the remote device. Additional physical gestures by the user can be interpreted in the mobile device to manipulate the content on the remote device.

Abstract: In order to provide filtering of content to be presented on a mobile device, a gesture-based preferencing system and method may be employed. When content is presented to a user, the user may indicate a positive or negative preference toward that content by making a gesture. The gesture may be detected by a motion sensor and the preference of the content indicated by the gesture may be stored in a preference datastore. The preference may be used to subsequently filter content that is to be presented to the user.

Abstract: A system comprises a first section comprising a plurality of horizontal elements, wherein each of the elements consists of an integrated loop at either end of the elements, wherein the elements can be evenly spaced apart and a second section, comprising a plurality of horizontal elements, wherein each of the elements consists of an integrated loop at either end of the elements, wherein the elements can be evenly spaced apart.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed that calculate an area-of-interest based on a user request for location specific data. The operations may include transmitting initial location data of the mobile terminal and user initiated gesture data to a server. The server may then perform initiating a request to receive the requested location data, and calculating a geographical area-of-interest based on the initial location data and the user initiated gesture data. The location specific data related to the area-of-interest may then be retrieved and transmitted to the mobile terminal. The area-of-interest may be defined based on the initial position of the mobile terminal and information provided by a gesture made by the user of the mobile terminal.

Abstract: A device API Abstraction layer is provided that is configured to operate as an interface between one or more applications operating on a device and an operating platform of the device. The device API abstraction layer comprises a universal set of APIs that enables the applications to execute irrespective of the operating system and software platform of the host device.

Abstract: To provide self-healing capabilities in a distributed knowledge network/intelligent sensor network, a node monitoring task agent can be deployed to a node to determine operating parameters of the node or of other task agents executing on the node. The operating parameters can be passed to a node monitoring data analysis engine which can analyze the data by referencing a rule-set. The analyzed data can be passed to a management application which can determine whether any self-healing actions need to be performed, such as moving the task agents to other healthier nodes of the DKN-ISN.

Abstract: In a computer network, a remedy server may be provided that controls vulnerability scans of the computer nodes. The remedy server determines a security level of a computer node and dispatches an agent to the node with a scan matching the security level. The agent executes the scan and reports the scan results to the remedy server. The remedy server collates scan results from a plurality of the network computers and determines which computers have a common vulnerability. A fix for the vulnerability, such as an executable patch file, is retrieved and multicast to those relevant computers.
