Abstract: A method of funding a business enterprise comprising providing a security to investors in exchange for investment funds, wherein the security includes terms that legally binds the investor to accept future valuation of the investment determined by applying a time based mathematical model which projects a later value of the investment based on the value of the investment at the time it was made, and based upon a variable to be determined at consummation of a later round of funding.

Abstract: A method and system for extracting values representative of modulation signal components from a modulated signal, the modulated signal containing a modulation signal, including developing a local clock signal which correlates in time to the modulated signal and includes a number of phase sectors per cycle and converting the modulated signal into a current that is representative of the signal and routing the current to the inverting input of an amplifier and charging one of a plurality of capacitive devices during each phase sector and sequentially connecting the capacitive devices between the output of the amplifier and the inverting input of the amplifier in non-overlapping sequences, the total of sequences being equal to one full cycle of the clock.

Abstract: A modulated signal is demodulated to obtain a modulation signal. The modulated signal is contained within an input signal. A periodic time segment sequence is defined having a plurality of ordered time segments. Signal values are acquired, from the input signal, during each ordered time segment. Signal values acquired during each ordered time segment are combined with signal values acquired during the same ordered time segment over multiple periods of the periodic time segment sequence. A local clock is generating. The modulated signal is demodulated by weighting the combined signal values by the local clock to obtain the modulation signal. the modulation signal is low-pass filtered to obtain a control signal. The generation of the local clock is controlled with the control signal.

Abstract: Filtered signal values are extracted from an input signal. A periodic time segment sequence having a plurality of ordered time segments is defined. Multiple sets of signal values are acquired from the input signal. Each signal value of a set is acquired during a same ordered time segment. Each set is acquired over multiple repetitions of the periodic time segment sequence. Each set is acquired during a different ordered time segment than each other set. For each set of at least two sets, signal values from the set are combined to obtain a separate filtered signal value for each set.

Abstract: An output signal is developed. A periodic time segment sequence having a multiple ordered time segments is defined. The periodic time segment sequence is repeated. A plurality of sets of signal values are provided to an output, thereby generating the output signal. Each set of signal values is provided during a different ordered time segment than each other set. Each signal value of a set is provided during a different repetition of the periodic time segment sequence. Each set of signal values, in sequence, has statistical dependence with at least one other set of signal values, in sequence.

Abstract: Values representative of modulation signal components are extracted from a modulated signal. The modulated signal contains a modulation signal. A local clock signal is developed which correlates in time to the modulated signal and has a plurality of non-overlapping phase sectors per cycle. Signal values are acquired from the modulated signal, separately for at least one phase sector of one cycle of the local clock signal. At least two signal values from the same local clock cycle, but different phase sectors are combined to obtain at least one combined signal value representative of a modulation signal component.
