  • Publication number: 20090083132
    Abstract: Tracking digital asset infringement activities and infringers on peer-to-peer networks. One method for assessing notice effectiveness of unauthorized distributors of content on a peer-to-peer network comprises processing peer data from a plurality of peers on the network, wherein the peer data aids in identification of individual unauthorized distributors. The embodiment includes creating a trial with a trial base population of the unauthorized distributors and a trial capture window, determining metrics for measuring the notice effectiveness, selecting a randomization methodology for the trial, performing the trial with the trial base population over the trial capture window according to the randomization methodology and issuing notices to some of the unauthorized distributors.

  • Publication number: 20080007398
    Abstract: A technique is provided for wirelessly tracking valuable assets during transit via a tracking system. The tracking system includes an event sensor for generating a trigger signal upon sensing an event and a position sensing device for receiving positional information of an asset being tracked. The tracking system also includes a communication device for communicating a date, a time and received positional information to one or more monitoring stations upon being triggered by the trigger signal. The one or more monitoring stations process the information received from the tracking system to determine if the event is expected or an anomaly via an anomaly detection algorithm.
