Patent number: 9253127Abstract: A system is provided for applying optimized selection to route an email message over a network to a recipient mailbox. An email message may be enabled to be transmitted through a plurality of servers to a destination recipient mailbox server. An external message transfer agent may receive the email message using Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) and may transmit the received email message to a proxy transport server. The proxy transport server may apply a selection for an optimal store-and-forward (SAF) transport server to which to route the email message. The selection may provide for identifying available SAF transport servers, organizing the SAF transport servers into server groups, and selecting the optimal SAF transport server belonging to a server group where a recipient mailbox server is located. The proxy transport server may transmit the email message to the SAF transport server for delivering the message to the recipient mailbox.Type: GrantFiled: September 3, 2014Date of Patent: February 2, 2016Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Gregory Gourevitch, Wilbert De Graaf, David Blyth

Patent number: 7154540Abstract: Pan, tilt and zoom sensors are coupled to a broadcast camera in order to determine the field of view of the broadcast camera and to make a rough estimate of a target's location in the broadcast camera's field of view. Pattern recognition techniques can be used to determine the exact location of the target in the broadcast camera's field of view. If a preselected target is at least partially within the field of view of the broadcast camera, all or part of the target's image is enhanced. The enhancements include replacing the target image with a second image, overlaying the target image or highlighting the target image. Examples of a target include a billboard, a portion of a playing field or another location at a live event. The enhancements made to the target's image can be seen by the television viewer but are not visible to persons at the live event.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2001Date of Patent: December 26, 2006Assignee: Fox Sports Productions, Inc.Inventors: Stanley K. Honey, Richard H. Cavallaro, Jerry Neil Gepner, Edward Gerald Goren, David Blyth Hill

Patent number: H1563Abstract: A method and device for detecting bacteria by forming an immunoassay ladder sing a biological substance (Ag) adsorbed onto a surface, to which has been added an immunological biochemical ladder (Ab) and beta-galactosidase enzyme (gal) to form a Ag-Ab-gal system. The system is added to an aqueous solution of an enzyme selected from ortho-nitrophenylgalactopyranoside and ortho-nitrophenylgalactosidase enzyme. The enzyme reacts with the gal to produce ortho-nitrophenol (ONP) such that the amount of ortho-nitrophenol (ONP) produced may be detected by measuring the vapor pressure generated by the ONP using an ion mobility spectrometer monitor. The pressure of the ONP is in proportion to the amount of biological substance present in the system. In a preferred embodiment, the ion mobility spectrometer monitor includes display means for indicating the quantity of bacteria measured.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 1994Date of Patent: July 2, 1996Assignee: The United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the ArmyInventors: A.
