Publication number: 20140195692Abstract: A recursive DNS nameserver system and related domain name resolution techniques are disclosed. The DNS nameservers utilize a local cache having previously retrieved domain name resolution to avoid recursive resolution processes and the attendant DNS requests. If a matching record is found with a valid (not expired) TTL field, the nameserver returns the cached domain name information to the client. If the TTL for the record in the cache has expired and the nameserver is unable to resolve the domain name information using DNS requests to authoritative servers, the recursive DNS nameserver returns to the cache and accesses the resource record having an expired TTL. The nameserver generates a DNS response to the client device that includes the domain name information from the cached resource record. In various embodiments, subscriber information is utilized to resolve the requested domain name information in accordance with user-defined preferences.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 24, 2014Publication date: July 10, 2014Applicant: OpenDNS, Inc.Inventors: Noah Treuhaft, David Ulevitch, Michael Damm

Patent number: 8765152Abstract: The invention relates to a pharmaceutical or nutraceutical formulation comprising a core, comprising an active pharmaceutical or nutraceutical ingredient, a penetration promoter and a bioavailability promoting agent, and a polymeric coating for the gastrointestinal targeted release of the active ingredient, characterized in that the bioavailability promoting agent is a pharmaceutically acceptable inhibitor of proteolytic enzymes, which increases the oral bioavailability of the active ingredient by a factor of at least five, compared to a corresponding formulation without the bioavailability promoting agent.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 2010Date of Patent: July 1, 2014Assignee: Evonik Roehm GmbHInventors: Rosario Lizio, Michael Gottschalk, Michael Damm, Norbert Windhab, Melanie Liefke, Guenter Schmitt, Erna Roth, Ruediger Alexowsky

Patent number: 8694642Abstract: Systems and methods for processing requests for domain name information in accordance with subscriber information are provided. A request for domain name information can be correlated with subscriber preferences to resolve the domain name information. Domain names may be flagged for blocking or proxying by one or more subscriber preferences. In response to a flagged domain name, a client device can be redirected to a web server that can function as proxy on behalf of the user for accessing the flagged domain. In one example, user preferences and/or network preferences can be used to determine whether a particular user can bypass a blocking preference and access the flagged domain using the proxy.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2011Date of Patent: April 8, 2014Assignee: OpenDNS, Inc.Inventors: Mathew Dempsky, David Ulevitch, Noah Treuhaft, Michael Damm

Publication number: 20130275570Abstract: Systems and methods for processing domain name system requests in accordance with subscriber information are provided. A request for domain name information can be correlated with subscriber information using a subscriber identifier to resolve the domain name information at a domain name system (DNS) nameserver. The subscriber identifier and/or subscriber information may be transmitted from a DNS nameserver to a webserver using the domain name information provided in response to the subscriber's DNS queries. The subscriber identifier and/or information may be used in delivering a landing page or in facilitating proxying of resource requests for the requested domain.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 16, 2012Publication date: October 17, 2013Applicant: OPENDNS, INC.Inventors: Noah Treuhaft, Douglas Tabacco, Michael Damm

Patent number: 8431157Abstract: The invention relates to a partly neutralized anionic (meth)acrylate copolymer consisting of radically polymerized units containing 25-95% by weight (meth)acrylic acid C1 to C4 alkylesters and 5-75% by weight (meth)acrylate monomer with an anionic group, wherein 0.1 to 25% contained anionic groups are neutralized by a base. Said invention is characterized in that said base is embodied in the form of an cationic organic base whose molecular weight is greater than 150. A medical form containing said partly neutralized anionic (meth)acrylate copolymer and the use of said partly neutralized anionic (meth)acrylate copolymer for producing a medical form rapidly releasing an active substance having a determined pH value are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2005Date of Patent: April 30, 2013Assignee: Evonik Roehm GmbHInventors: Rosario Lizio, Hans-Ulrich Petereit, Erna Roth, Michael Damm, Ruediger Alexowsky

Publication number: 20120116873Abstract: Network traffic associated with a set of domain names is redirected according to campaigns provided by one or more potential purchasers of network traffic. The campaigns include a set of preferences for the network traffic a campaign targets. Individual requests for a domain in the set of domain names are analyzed to determine a set of request attributes. The set of request attributes are compared with the sets of preferences provided by the potential purchasers. The traffic is redirected according to the campaigns provided by purchasers. Network traffic for a set of domain names can be auctioned or otherwise sold in real-time based on campaigns provided by potential purchasers. Conversion tracking may provided independently or in combination with redirecting network traffic according to campaigns.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 8, 2011Publication date: May 10, 2012Applicant: REVNETICS, INC.Inventors: Michael Damm, Kamal Ravikant
