  • Publication number: 20170315776
    Abstract: This invention is directed to a computerized audio content gifting device. The ability to send audio content to a recipient as a gift allows the personalization of gifts such as flowers and candy to be made. The invention includes a housing with a circuit board, operational buttons, a communication port, a speaker, an attachment member, and a set of computer readable instructions stored on the computer readable medium that, when executed by the processor, provides for: receiving audio content from a server in electronic communications with the circuit board using the communications port, playing the audio content when an operational button is placed in the “on” position. The invention can also determine if there are copyright restrictions on the audio content and manage the number of authorized copies.

  • Patent number: 8024369
    Abstract: Novel tools for development and operation of ETL (Extract Transform Load) systems for populating databases. An embodiment uses metadata tables to describe relationships between jobs to run for processing data. These relationships can include parent-child job relation, and priority. These tools create a DataStage Service Architecture (DSA) that helps automate and control the ETL process. Other tools allow developers to easily view and update the ETL process.

  • Patent number: 4615478
    Abstract: After the support of not-noble metal has suitably been heated and before and during the application of a tablet of soldering material destined to receive the semiconductor chip, the soldering area is engaged by a reducing gas flame (for example, 20% hydrogen and 80% nitrogen at a temperature lower than 570.degree. C.), which eliminates any oxidation products. The soldering is thus of very good quality without using the normal plating of noble metal.
