Abstract: The present invention relates to a privacy method for responding to read request. The present invention further relates to a device for generating a response signal and a computer program product. Methods and systems in accordance with embodiments of the invention validate, whether a read request is directed at a target tag to be protected, and, upon a match, respond to the read request by sending a response signal.

Abstract: A method for automatically linking an anonymous electronic trade order having an order quantity (q) to an identity of a trader by providing an identity marker (s) of the trader; embedding the identity marker (s) by splitting the anonymous trade order into a number (n) of trade orders each having a corresponding order quantity x (i) to generate a trade order set; and placing the generated trade order set in an electronic order book.

Abstract: Determining a risk/reward model for a service provided by a service provider to a serviced entity where a value function for the service is dependent on at least value parameter, and comprises provision of a serviced entity base case being characteristic for at least one serviced entity value parameter without provision of a service and provision of a set of projects and their interdependencies being eligible for providing the service, each project having a given impact on a subset of one or both of the at least one serviced entity value parameter and at least one service provider value parameter. The risk/reward model is determined by way of performing a selection of the sets of projects resulting in a selection, further the model provides a risk/reward line, the risk/reward line is characteristic for whether a reward or a penalty is accredited to the service provider depending on achieved results.

Abstract: A method for authentication by biometric data, including receiving a biometric data set; evaluating if the received biometric data set is within a reference region, wherein the reference region represents a region associated with a reference biometric data set; evaluating if the received biometric data set is within a blackout region, wherein the blackout region represents a region associated with at least one previously received and positively authenticated biometric data set; and issuing a positive authentication if the received biometric data set is within the reference region, but outside the blackout region.

Abstract: A method for automatically linking an anonymous electronic trade order having an order quantity (q) to an identity of a trader by providing an identity marker (s) of the trader; embedding the identity marker (s) by splitting the anonymous trade order into a number (n) of trade orders each having a corresponding order quantity x (i) to generate a trade order set; and placing the generated trade order set in an electronic order book.

Abstract: Determining a risk/reward model for a service provided by a service provider to a serviced entity where a service provider value function for the service is dependent on at least one service provider value parameter. It further comprises provision of a serviced entity value function for the service being dependent on at least one serviced entity value parameter. It further comprises provision of weighting values for the serviced entity value function and the service provider value function. It further comprises provision of a serviced entity base case being characteristic for at least one serviced entity value parameter without provision of a service by the service provider and provision of a set of projects and their interdependencies being eligible for providing the service, each project having a given impact on a subset of one or both of the at least one serviced entity value parameter and at least one service provider value parameter.
