Patent number: 8692655Abstract: A radio frequency transponder, or a device that comprises a radio frequency transponder, wherein the radio frequency transponder is operative in invoking self-programming of data stored in the radio frequency transponder. In some implementations the radio frequency transponder selectively enables the transmission of a unique identifier by selectively programming the unique identifier stored in the radio frequency transponder. In various implementations, the radio frequency transponder programs data stored in the transponder by generating a signal that is reactively coupled to the antenna of the radio frequency transponder.Type: GrantFiled: May 7, 2007Date of Patent: April 8, 2014Assignee: Bloomberg Finance L.P.Inventors: Christopher William Zimman, James William Hook

Patent number: 8249209Abstract: Systems and methods provide for data transfer and transmission according to a synchronous one-bit interface protocol. A bit stream is generated including first data to be transferred or transmitted and second data from which a clock period used to encode the first data may be extracted. The bit stream is provided to a processor for decoding. In one embodiment, the bit stream includes a start segment or sequence, a data segment and a stop segment or sequence. A clock period is encoded into and is extracted from the start and/or stop sequences. The data segment is decoded on the basis of the clock period.Type: GrantFiled: June 20, 2005Date of Patent: August 21, 2012Assignee: Bloomberg Finance L.P.Inventors: Christopher William Zimman, James William Hook

Patent number: 8250151Abstract: A system and method are provided, embodiments of which comprise encrypting input data based on authorization from an application program launched on a local computer device by a user. The encrypted input data that is generated by the user is sent to a network communication interface associated with the local computer device for transmission to a remote computer device. At the remote computer the received input data is decrypted, whereby based on the decrypted input data the remote computer generates encrypted response data that is associated with the decrypted first data. The encrypted response data is sent from the remote computer to the local computer, where the encrypted response data is received via the network communication interface associated with the local computer and decrypted. The local computer displays the decrypted response data on a display.Type: GrantFiled: October 12, 2005Date of Patent: August 21, 2012Assignee: Bloomberg Finance L.P.Inventors: Christopher William Zimman, James William Hook, Dharmender Dulai

Publication number: 20030066637Abstract: A thermal conductor provides a thermal pathway from a protected region within a security envelope to an exterior region outside of the security envelope to remove heat from a protected device within the protected region. The thermal conductor, such as a section of copper tape, is thermally connected to the protected device and is threaded through a fold in the security envelope.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 5, 2001Publication date: April 10, 2003Inventor: Christopher William Zimman
