  • Publication number: 20140325561
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to linking a viewing device, such as a TV, to a user's account in a server for purposes of sharing content via the TV. A viewing application on the TV allows the TV to couple with the server, which generates a pin to be displayed on the TV. Upon the user entering the pin that is displayed on the TV in a mobile application of a mobile device, the server links the TV to the account that the mobile device is linked to. The user shares content on the TV by sending commands from the mobile device to the server, which renders a screen on the TV already being viewed by the audience. Each command goes through the server rather than peer to peer. Any content that is stored in the cloud can be shared even if it is not on the mobile device.

The platform is advantageously flexible to allow a message of any content type to be transmitted via any transmission protocol.

  • Patent number: 6240398
    Abstract: A method and system for assigning a classification to a device having a set of qualifying classifications. The method includes the steps of obtaining an inventory count for each classification of device included in the set of qualifying classifications, comparing the inventory count for each such classification to a safety stock number, and assigning a classification to the device from among the classifications which have an inventory count less than the safety stock number. The method enables improved classification assignment with respect to both present demands and future, projected demand thereby more optimally utilizing and distributing inventory.
