  • Patent number: 11431702
    Abstract: Techniques are provided for using tokenization in conjunction with “behind-the-wall” JWT authentication. “Behind-the-wall” JWT authentication refers to JWT authentication techniques in which the JWT stays exclusively within the private network that is controlled by the web application provider. Because the JWT stays within the private network, the security risk posed by posting the JWT in a client cookie is avoided. However, because JWT is used behind-the-wall to authenticate a user with the services requested by the user, the authentication-related overhead is significantly reduced.

  • Publication number: 20080059964
    Abstract: A system and method for managing service interactions launches a process that is defined by a programming abstraction based on a syntax of a general purpose programming language. Interaction with a service, such as a web-based service, is initiated and the process requests the service to perform an action. Execution of the process is suspended until a response is received from the service. Execution of the process continues after receiving a response from the service.

  • Publication number: 20060150372
    Abstract: A method for stretch breaking fibers to produce a staple yarn and operating a staple fiber spinning machine, and an apparatus for performing such method, that enables the production of a plurality of products of lot size smaller than a large denier tow product. The process includes at least two break zones and a consolidation zone downstream from a second break zone to form a staple yarn. The filaments are broken in a second break zone downstream from the first break zone by increasing the speed of the fiber fed into the process.

  • Publication number: 20040223003
    Abstract: An image generator is organized into a plurality of rendering engines, each of which renders an image of a part scene and provides the part image to a merge engine associated with that rendering engine. The image is a part image in that it usually contains less than all of the objects in the image to be rendered. The merge engine merges the part image from its associated rendering engine with the part image provided by a prior merge engine and provides the merged part image to a next merge engine. One or more merge engines are designated the output merge engines and these output merge engines output a merged part image that is (a portion of) the ultimate output of the image generator, the full rendered image. Each merge engine performs its merge process on the pixels it has from its rendering engine and from its prior neighbor merge engine, in a pipelined manner and without necessarily waiting for all of the pixels of the part image or the merged part image.

  • Publication number: 20030158832
    Abstract: A system and method for creating and using custom activities in a process flow is disclosed. A process flow may include a plurality of default activities that are internal to a process manager. Methods and systems consistent with features of the present invention enable custom activities to be created and used by the process manager to allow data or programming logic located outside of the process manager to be used. A custom activity may be created by: writing and compiling a Java™ class that implements a particular interface; defining an XML description file; (3) packaging the Java class and XML description file into an archive file; and (4) associating the archive file with a custom activity that may be brought into the process flow managed by the process manager.

  • Publication number: 20020174417
    Abstract: A method of creating and defining a custom data field within a process management system includes creating a file to specify visible field properties of the custom data field and defining a model of the custom data field. The file and the model may be packaged into an archive file. The custom data field may be inserted and the archive file is added into the process management system as a new class. The process management system may be deployed with the new class and the process management system may be tested with the new class.

  • Patent number: 6379891
    Abstract: Viral proteins derived from an enterically transmitted non-A/non-B viral hepatitis agent (HEV) are disclosed. In one embodiment, the protein is immunologically reactive with antibodies present in individuals infected with the viral hepatitis agent. This protein is useful in a diagnostic method for detecting infection by the enterically transmitted agent. Specific epitopes have been identified that are reactive with sera of individual infected with different strains of HEV. Also disclosed are DNA probes derived from a cloned sequence of the viral agent. These probes are useful for identifying and sequencing the entire viral agent and for assaying the presence of the viral agent in an infected sample, by using probe-specific amplification of virus-derived DNA fragments.
