Abstract: A system for enabling a secure transaction between a first user and a second user is disclosed. The system includes a first device. The first device includes (i) a memory and (ii) a processor. The memory stores (a) database, (b) a set of modules, and (c) instructions. The set of modules include a first device token obtaining module, a first device encryption key obtaining module, a first device long token communicating module, a first device long token receiving module, a first device payment transfer information receiving module, a first device transaction information encryption module, a first device encrypted transaction information associating module, a first device payment transfer information communicating module, a first device transaction information approval module, a first device transaction reporting module, and a first device payment transfer information verification module.

Abstract: A computer implemented system for generating and managing geographical specific deals comprising a deal information module that obtains information on deals from a plurality of merchants, an inventory and deal splitting module that splits each inventory comprising a plurality of products to be sold into a plurality of deals; and each deal comprising the plurality of products to be sold into a plurality of sub deals that are made available at different sub intervals of the pre defined time interval, a sub deal selection and notification module that selects a sub deal from a deal based on the location information of the shopper, and notifies the sub deal to the shopper; and a transaction identifier generation module that generates the transaction identifier for the sub deal based on a selection of the sub deal, and notifies the transaction identifier to the shopper with a validity period for the transaction identifier.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that provides local outsourcing by guaranteeing that a consultant will be available at a premise of a customer within a first predetermined period on request; guaranteeing that the customer can visit the consultant's premise within a second predetermined period on request; and guaranteeing that one or more required resources and the consultant will be available at the customer's premise within a third predetermined period on request.

Abstract: A method and system for using a data warehouse to improve results of enterprise level processes are provided. The data warehouse typically includes industry-wide empirical data relating to corresponding operational practices, metrics, and outcomes. The method focuses on actual process results by taking a holistic, end-to-end view of the process in conjunction with using the data in the data warehouse to enable effective process improvements.

Abstract: A metal dialkyldithiocarbamate or other such compound including a group of the formula R.sub.2 NCS-- or R.sub.2 NS-- is useful as a rubber accelerator/vulcanizing agent, wherein each R is C.sub.5-18 branched alkyl.

Abstract: An apparatus (200) and method are provided for testing a nozzle of a pick-and-place system (100). The apparatus (200) includes a reservoir (206) configured to carry a fluid, a membrane (204) covering an opening of the reservoir (206), and a reservoir pressure sensor. The apparatus may further include a processor (118) coupled to the reservoir pressure sensor (208) and an output device (116) coupled to the processor (118). The nozzle (104) is positioned to contact and displace the membrane (204), thus changing the pressure of the fluid within the reservoir (206). The reservoir pressure sensor (208) senses pressure changes within the reservoir (206) and generates a signal that varies in response to the displacement of the membrane. The signal is compared to a predetermined signal to detect whether the nozzle has the proper position, the proper alignment, sufficient vacuum, and other errors affecting pick-and-place systems.

Abstract: A vulcanizable composition comprises sulfur-vulcanizable rubber, sulfur or a sulfur-donor, a zinc compound, and a sulfur-containing amine of the formulaR.sup.1 --S.sub.n --R--NR.sup.2 R.sup.3wherein R is a divalent radical comprising a chain of at least 2 C atoms, R.sup.1 is an organic radical, and R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are each H or an organic radical, provided that NR.sup.2 R.sup.3 is not NH(C.sub.1-6 alkyl), and n is an integer, or a salt thereof, provided that the amine is not 3-(methylthio)propylamine. The amine is preferably cystamine.
