Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to a method and system for detecting and/or mitigating domain name system (DNS) spoofing Trojan horse (or Trojan) code. Trojan code (sometimes called malware or malicious software) is a common computer security problem. Some Trojans modify the DNS resolution mechanism employed by the infected computer, such that the computer traffic, when browsing the Internet, is routed to a location not intended by the rightful owner of the computer. The present invention can detect this phenomenon from a remote device or location and may take action to mitigate its effects.

Abstract: Providing a search engine with system configuration information. The system configuration information pertains to a system having a web server that provides content. For example, the content may be web pages associated with a web site, and the system may include hardware and software used to provide the content of the web site to end users. More particularly, the system can include one or more computer systems, web server software, application server software, and application programs that facilitate providing content. A search engine requests system configuration information from the web server. In response to the request, the web server provides system configuration information to the search engine. The search engine can use the system configuration information to reference portions of the content in an index. The index can be used to respond to a search query that involves content served by the web server.

Abstract: A system and method to facilitate interactive selection of groupings of clusters and presentation of related datasets are described. An interactive data interface is presented to a user in a display window, the interactive data interface configured to display multiple alternate groupings of clusters associated with at least one dataset of records targeted by the user. Selection of a grouping of clusters from the plurality of selectable groupings is further facilitated based on one or more predetermined parameters associated with each grouping of clusters and the individual clusters within a respective grouping, such as, for example, a target ratio value and a target count value corresponding to each cluster of records.

Abstract: Processing of a variable print document corresponding to a plurality of elements, each element having a type, a coverage area and a z-axis value, may be improved by creating a composite elements to replace groups of elements when element types are compatible and when creating composite elements is desirable based at least on the coverage area of the composite element, for example, in relation to the sum of the coverage areas of the elements in the group, and otherwise swapping z-axis values of elements if the elements do not overlap. Elements may further include at least one of a transparency and/or text-wrap parameter, which may be used in the method for producing composite elements.

Abstract: A method of processing data from a file includes obtaining a first portion of the file, creating a first compression unit by compressing at least the first portion of the file, obtaining a second portion of the file, creating a second compression unit by compressing at least the second portion of the file, and storing the first and second compression unit such that each of the first and the second compression units can be individually accessed. A method of processing data from a file includes receiving a request to access a portion of the file, determining one or more sub-units that include compressed data associated with the portion of the file, de-compressing the compressed data in the one or more sub-units to obtain de-compressed data, and transmitting the de-compressed data in response to the request.

Abstract: A method and system for determining whether a web site is a spam web site based on analysis of changes in link information over time is provided. A spam detection system collects link information for a web site at various times. The spam detection system extracts one or more features from the link information that relate to changes in the link information over time. The spam detection system then generates an indication of whether the web site is a spam web site using a classifier that has been trained to detect whether the extracted feature indicates that the web site is likely to be spam.

Abstract: Navigation of a hierarchical system is facilitated by a specialized graphical user interface in which graphical representations of different levels of the hierarchy are mapped to and coordinate with menu controls. The graphical representation may variously describe the topological arrangement of a hierarchy or a functional representation of a hierarchical system. Selecting an element of the graphical representation causes a new representation to appear, showing higher level of detail of the selected element. Simultaneously the menu controls expand to offer submenus corresponding to the greater detail for selection by a user. The graphical representation may be augmented by other controls, such as shortcut icons for enhanced performance.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method of registering a user equipment (UE) in a communication system that includes a licensed wireless communication system and a generic access network (GAN) that has a generic access network controller (GANC). The method sends a register request message from the UE to the GANC that indicates a GAN mode capability of A/Gb only for the UE. When the GANC has a GAN mode capability of A/Gb, the GANC registers the UE with the GAN. When the GANC has a GAN mode capability of Iu only, the GANC rejects the register request message. When the GANC has a GAN mode capability of both A/Gb and Iu, the GANC registers the UE based on a set of GANC mode selection rules that the GANC applies for registering UEs with the GAN.

Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein provide a network device including an electronic load circuit coupled in parallel between a non-magnetic transformer and a physical layer (PHY) module. Data signals are received via a network connector, and the electronic load circuit is operable to provide DC termination of open-drain (DC common-mode control and current sourcing to) transmit drivers of a physical (PHY) layer module. A common-mode suppression (CMS) circuit can be coupled to positive and negative input signals to the PHY layer module. The CMS circuit is operable to block common-mode noise currents while passing differential mode data signal currents bi-directionally between the network connector and the PHY layer module.

Abstract: A search engine stores different taxonomies that each specifies categories and relationships between the categories. When the search engine receives a request having a search query, the search engine determines which taxonomy, if any, it should use to generate a search engine results page. The search engine bases this determination upon information provided to it in the request, in one embodiment. For example, the search engine might select a taxonomy based on the particular environment from which the search query originated. However, the search engine can select the taxonomy based on other information, such as a role of the user. Thus, a medical researcher and a financial analyst for a particular corporation could receive search engine results pages that were generated with appropriate taxonomies for each of them.

Abstract: Applications in a broadcast environment distribute events in real-time to a large number of receivers within specified geographic locations while efficiently sharing bandwidth resources with other applications using the same broadcast network. Applications need not be aware of the other applications sharing the resources, nor of the methods, protocols, and other mechanisms used to actually broadcast the data over the broadcast medium. Server-side applications that serve data, send notifications, or distribute events to specific locations within the network use a broadcast location manager. Client applications that receive such data, notifications, or events use a client location filter to obtain events that are relevant based on the location of the device. The broadcast location manager and client location filter work together to reliably and efficiently transmit data, notifications, and events to specific locations over the broadcast network for all applications involved.

Abstract: An administrator for an environment may access an administration console to provide configuration information to tailor a search engine results page (SERP) for users in that environment. The administrator specifies which particular position on a SERP is to be reserved for environment specific information. The administrator may specify environment specific content that goes into a particular position. Rather than providing the content itself, the administrator might provide information to derive the environment specific content that goes into a particular position. The configuration information may be stored such that it is available for a search engine to user to configure a SERP with environment specific information. However, another device such as a proxy that is interposed between a client that issued the search query and the search engine may configure the SERP with environment specific information.
