Publication number: 20140040911Abstract: The invention provides a system and method for managing clusters of parallel processors for use by groups and individuals requiring supercomputer level computational power. A Beowulf cluster provides supercomputer level processing power. Unlike a traditional Beowulf cluster; however, cluster size in not singular or static. As jobs are received from users/customers, a Resource Management System (RMS) dynamically configures and reconfigures the available nodes in the system into clusters of the appropriate sizes to process the jobs. Depending on the overall size of the system, many users may have simultaneous access to supercomputer level computational processing. Users are preferably billed based on the time for completion with faster times demanding higher fees.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 7, 2013Publication date: February 6, 2014Applicant: SEARCHLITE ADVANCES LLCInventors: Charles PRAEL, Adrian TYMES

Publication number: 20120209747Abstract: A method for partially verifying the legitimacy of a remote purchase request based on a card number from a card issuing financial institution. The method includes receiving and storing a first purchase request information set including an origin and a card number. Further, the origin and the card number are sent to the card issuing financial institution to determine if the origin matches an origin on file for the card number at the card issuing financial institution.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 23, 2012Publication date: August 16, 2012Applicant: SEARCHLITE ADVANCES, LLCInventor: Thomas A.

Publication number: 20070263007Abstract: The present invention relates to display of visual content on a client device using server-side rasterization of visual content. Visual content is rendered on a server system, transformed into bitmaps compatible with the display attributes of a client device, and transmitted for display on the client device. The invention allows the server to perform, in effect, as a remote browser for displaying Web pages, e-mail, e-mail attachments, electronic document and forms, database queries and results, drawings, presentations, and images at the client device. The approach is “remote” because the server does the rendering and the client provides the interface; “multi-level” because rendered visual content is represented as a multi-level set of raster representations; and constitutes a “browsing system” because the client and server share data about the source visual content element being browsed, and the client performs a specific browsing function assisted by the server.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 6, 2007Publication date: November 15, 2007Applicant: SEARCHLITE ADVANCES, LLCInventors: John Robotham, Charles Johnson, Howard Weiss
