Publication number: 20210158373Abstract: A system may include one or more server devices disposed within a remote network management platform. The server devices may communicate with computing devices that are disposed within a managed network. The server devices may store a representation of software programs determined as installed on each of the computing devices. The server devices may also determine, by comparing software license rights to the representation of the software programs determined to be installed on each of the computing devices, whether the managed network is in compliance with the software program license rights. The devices may additionally provide, to a client device that is disposed within the managed network, a representation of a graphical user interface that denotes whether the managed network is in compliance with the software program license rights. The graphical user interface may include a reclamation rules page.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 15, 2020Publication date: May 27, 2021Inventors: Manish Srivastava, German Bertot, Colby Blakeman, Brian Hudson

Patent number: 9418219Abstract: An inter-process messaging security management may be provided. A message comprising an operation to be performed may be sent from a process operating in a process chamber to a second process operating in another chamber. Before the message is allowed to be delivered, the validity of the operation contained in the message may be verified and a security policy may be examined to determine whether the message is permitted to be sent from the first process to the second process. If the security policy permits the second process to execute the operation requested by the first process, the message may be delivered to the second process. If the operation is not permitted, the message may not be delivered and an error message may be returned to the first process.Type: GrantFiled: April 11, 2008Date of Patent: August 16, 2016Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Avinashreddy Bathula, Jimmy Alexander, Keith C. Bentley, Neil L. Coles, Brian Hudson, Matthew G. Lyons, John Mark Miller, Andrew M. Rogers, Upender R. Sandadi, Scott R. Shell, Jon Vincent

Patent number: 9310089Abstract: An HVAC unit includes an HVAC motor and a system controller. The HVAC motor is coupled to a motor controller. The motor controller is configured to receive a command signal bearing a digitally encoded operating level of the HVAC motor. The system controller is coupled to the motor controller, and is configured to transmit the command signal to the motor controller. The system controller modulates the command signal with the digitally encoded operating level in response to a service demand.Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 2010Date of Patent: April 12, 2016Assignee: Lennox Industries Inc.Inventors: Mark G. Beste, Brian Hudson, Roger C. Hundt, David Omlor, Stephen A. Walter, David M. Wynnick

Patent number: 8074178Abstract: Visual feedback may be provided. First, a continuous contact with a first point on a surface may be detected. The surface may comprise, for example, a touch screen or a touch pad. The continuous contact may be caused by a selecting element comprising, for example, a stylus or a digit of a subject. Then a menu may be displayed in response to the detected continuous contact. The menu may comprise a plurality of menu selectable elements. Next it may be detected that the continuous contact has moved from the first point on the surface to a second point on the surface. The second point may correspond to a one of the plurality of menu selectable elements. Then a control may be displayed corresponding the one of the plurality of menu selectable elements.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 2007Date of Patent: December 6, 2011Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventor: Brian Hudson

Publication number: 20060224415Abstract: A method for receiving prescription data from a pharmacy is provided. The method includes emulating a device, such as using a pseudo TTY feature of a Unix operating system or a pseudo device of a Windows operating system. A prescription authorization system is then set to transmit data to the emulated device when the prescription data is provided to a claims approval agency by the prescription authorization system. The data can be supplemented with data from a secondary source, such as a system that acquires data in accordance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act or other suitable systems. The prescription data and any supplemental data is then received at the prescription authorization system, and is transmitted to the emulated device. The prescription data is also stored in a local log file, and is transmitted to a data warehouse over a network using the emulated device.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 4, 2005Publication date: October 5, 2006Inventors: Brian Hudson, Matthew Bergmann, Barton Benson, William Akers, Travis Bell
