Abstract: At a managed control plane service, end-user application programming interfaces (APIs) of an application to be implemented at a provider network are determined. A set of common operational requirements of the application, to be fulfilled without obtaining program code for the requirements, are identified. In response to an invocation of an end-user API of the application, computations are performed at a resource selected by the managed control plane service, and one or more tasks to satisfy a common operational requirement are initiated by the managed control plane service.

Abstract: The invention refers to standardized plant extract from biomass of in vitro cultures of Haberlea rhodopensis Friv. (HR), containing bioactive compounds and their primary secondary metabolites, containing in weight %, as follows: organic acid from 4.0 to 6.0, fatty acids from 0.5 to 1.5, amino acids from 8.0 to 12.0, sterols from 0.5 to 1.0, free phenols from 3.0 to 6.0, sugars from 45 to 55, and polyphenols from 25.0 to 35.0, with a predominant myconoside content of 70% to 96% in the polyphenolic fraction, constituting 18% to 35% of the total extract, and to a composition containing the standardized extract and glycerol as well as to a method for the preparation of a standardized plant extract. The method according this invention, along with its optimally chosen steps, specific conditions, parameters such as temperature, duration, stirring, light, growth factors, etc.

Abstract: A request is received by a provider network from a requestor for data associated with a customer of the provider network. The data is not stored at the provider network, and the request includes a first encryption key. The provider network verifies that the requestor is authorized to request data from the customer of the multi provider network. The provider network sends information pertaining to the requested data to the customer. The provider network also sends the identity of the requestor and the first encryption key. The provider network sends, to the requestor, data that is encrypted, and a decryption key for decrypting the encrypted data.

Abstract: The system generates a heat index for each player in a sporting event. Historical data is maintained over time and is available for display by a user. In one embodiment, the heat index is provided via a network such as the internet. In another embodiment, the heat index is displayed as part of an event or game broadcast. The heat index represents the current level of performance of a player pursuant to a calculation algorithm that includes objective and subjective information. The objective information includes statistical data from a game or contest. The subjective information may include references from announcers and input from viewers.

Abstract: The system provides a computer based presentation synchronized to a broadcast and not merely to an event. The system includes a customizable interface that uses a broadcast and a plurality of secondary sources to present data and information to a user to enhance and optimize a broadcast experience. The secondary sources can comprise commercially available sources as well as user generated content that is generated prior to, or coincidentally with, the broadcast of the primary content.

Abstract: The system provides the ability to have a dashboard automatically configure itself in a dynamic manner based on a detected context in which the dashboard is being used. In one embodiment, the system is used as part of the presentation of secondary content that is synchronized to, or coordinated with, the presentation of a primary content source. The system provides a plurality of user selectable widgets that can each present secondary content as desired. The system not only permits ornamental and geographical customization of the dashboard, but allows temporal customization as well by allowing the user to request alerts for certain types of primary or secondary content. The system also provides for automatic reconfiguration that is tied to another users presence or absence.

Abstract: This invention relates to a method and a device for cleaning the textile materials in water environment, more specially to cleaning, disinfecting and softening of textile materials which could be used in a domestic environment for cleaning of soiled textile materials, including clothes of natural and synthetic textile materials. The method characterized in that textile materials are treated in water environment for 40-60 minutes during the simultaneous influence of sound and subsonic waves with frequency ranging from 8.5 to 32 kHz and in the presence of permanent magnetic field. During the influence of the subsonic waves silver particles, are dispersed in the washing solution, creating concentration of silver ions at about 1.10?7-2.10?8 g/l.

Abstract: The system provides a computer based presentation synchronized to a broadcast and not merely to an event. The system includes a customizable interface that uses a broadcast and a plurality of secondary sources to present data and information to a user to enhance and optimize a broadcast experience. The system defines templates that represent a customizable content interface for a user. In one embodiment, the templates comprise triggers, sources, widgets, and filters. In one embodiment the system receives the closed captioning feed (cc feed) of a broadcast and mines the text of the cc feed to identify keywords and triggers that will cause the retrieval, generation, and/or display of content related to the keywords and triggers. The system can also use speech recognition to supplement, or to replace, the cc feed and identify key words and triggers used to initiate content.

Abstract: The system provides a method to present a Fantasy League and Fantasy Games in a fully customizable format. The system provides a match up experience where the owner can focus on his own team as if it were a single game with all of the owner's players participating (even though the owner's players come from different teams and play at different times and even different days of the week). The system also provides for match up presentation for Head-to-Head leagues so it appears as if a real game between two Fantasy Teams is being played. The system includes a scoreboard, play by play, player profiles, boxscores, images and video, news, chat, contextual information, alerts, and other information related to the owner's team.

Abstract: The system provides a computer based presentation of promotional content synchronized to a broadcast and not merely to an event. The system includes a customizable interface that uses a broadcast and a plurality of secondary sources to present data and information to a user to enhance and optimize a broadcast experience. The system provides customizable delivery of the promotional content that is based on both the content and the context of the primary content broadcast. The contextual triggers define a state of the broadcast and select from a library of promotional content that is appropriate for that state and for the user. The system can also synchronize promotional content to any or all of the plurality of secondary sources as well. The system can provide promotional content on a user by user basis, providing uniquely user directed advertising.
