Abstract: Systems and methods for providing concurrent access to a resource via multiple user identities via a single client entity. A first authenticated session is established with an instance of a browser. The first session is associated with a first identity of a first user. A request to access the resource with an intermediate identity concurrently with the first session is detected. The intermediate identity is mapped to a target identity of a target user to be emulated. A second authentication session is established with the browser instance. The second session is associated with the intermediate identity. The request to access the resource is translated into a request to access the resource with the target identity. The translated request is forwarded to the resource. The response from the resource is translated to a response to the browser instance accessing the resource utilizing the target identity and returned to the browser instance.

Abstract: A computer system analyzes the state of a computer system to determine whether that state violates one or more security goals from a particular perspective, such as a particular user account or role. The system takes into account a combination of access rights, permissions, and entitlements to determine whether the state of the computer system violates any of the security goals. In response to determining that at least one of the security goals is violated, the computer system may change the state of the computer system so that it no longer violates the security goals, or prevent the computer system from being put into that state.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing concurrent access to a resource via multiple user identities via a single client entity. The client entity is allowed access to the resource utilizing a first user identity. An attempt to access the resource with the client entity utilizing a second user identity is detected. The second user identity is a child identity of the first user identity. The attempt to access the resource is restructured as an attempt to access the resource with a third user identity that is not a child identity of the first user identity. The restructured request is forwarded to the resource using the third user entity to access the resource. A response from the resource is restructured as a response to the client entity accessing the resource utilizing the second user identity. The restructured response is sent to the client entity accessing the resource utilizing the second user identity.

Abstract: A system, apparatus, and method are disclosed that include generating a set of primary game outcomes with each primary game outcome being associated with a result in a primary game. A set of progressive prize bearing outcomes are associated with the set of first game outcomes according to a progressive win frequency rule. Each progressive prize bearing record is associated with a progressive win indicator and a progressive prize. A primary game outcome is determined in response to a game play request by a player. If the primary game outcome is associated with a winning result, the player is provided a corresponding award; independent of the primary game result, if the primary game outcome is associated with one of the progressive prize bearing records, the player is awarded a corresponding progressive prize.

Abstract: Polarization sensitive devices utilizing stacked organic and inorganic photovoltaics and related methods are disclosed. According to an aspect, a polarization sensitive photovoltaic (PV) cell may include an anode, a cathode, and a photoactive layer and a polarizing structure between the anode and the cathode. The photoactive layer may be formed from inorganic or organic materials. The polarizing structure may be integrated with the photoactive layer. Two or more PV cells may be stacked along an axis to form a polarization sensitive device such as, for example, a polarimeter.

Abstract: Provided are peptide analogues of PA-IL and compositions containing them. The PA-IL peptide analogues have altered carbohydrate binding specificity relative to a PA-IL of SEQ ID NO:1, and thus the analogues contain amino acid substitutions in SEQ ID NO:1. The substitutions can be at positions 50, 52 and 53 of SEQ ID NO:1 and can include combinations of amino acid substitutions at those positions. Also included are methods for detecting changes in the glycosylation of carbohydrates and for separating biomolecules which contain glycoproteins or glycoconjugates.

Abstract: A role tree having nodes corresponding to semantic roles in a hierarchy is defined. A posting list is generated for each association of a term and a semantic role in the hierarchy. The posting lists are stored contiguously on a physical storage medium such that a subtree of the hierarchy of semantic roles can be loaded from the storage medium as a single contiguous block. The posting lists for a subtree of the hierarchy are retrieved by obtaining data identifying the beginning location on the physical storage medium of the posting lists for the term at the top of a desired subtree of the hierarchy and data identifying the length of the posting lists of the desired subtree of the hierarchy. A single contiguous block that includes the posting lists for the desired subtree of the hierarchy is then retrieved from the beginning location through the specified length.

Abstract: Computer-readable media, computerized methods, and computer systems for conducting semantic processes to present search results that include highlighted regions which are relevant to a conceptual meaning of a query are provided. Initially, content of document(s) is accessed and semantic representations are derived by distilling linguistic representations from the content. These semantic representations may be stored at a semantic index. Also, a proposition is derived from the query by parsing search terms of the query, and distilling the proposition from the search terms. Typically, the proposition is a logical representation of the conceptual meaning of the query. The proposition is compared against the semantic representations at the semantic index to identify a matching set. Regions of the content within the document, from which the matching set of semantic representations are derived, are targeted.
