  • Publication number: 20050131924
    Abstract: The Quantum Matrix system is a multi-dimensional, multi-threaded exchange environment for data organization, management, and manipulation. Data is organized into a multi-dimensional structure of nodes. Nodes may represent data, absence of data, or another set of nodes. The multi-dimensional structure or portions of it can be automatically created from a file system. One or more associations are also defined for the multi-dimensional structure. An association indicates a relationship between a node and another node, data, or a set of nodes. The multi-dimensional structure is then displayed three-dimensionally and navigated. Relational logic, Boolean algebra, or a scripting language can be applied to the nodes, data, and associations to produce a resultant set of nodes. Furthermore, portions of the multi-dimensional structure can be isolated with the use of planes to ease navigation.

  • Publication number: 20050091172
    Abstract: A method of executing a transaction associated with performance of an action involving a plurality of parties includes the steps of a first party initiating a transaction by contacting a designated call center through a secure portal and requesting performance of an action. Another step includes the call center querying a second party regarding predetermined preferences of the first party. Still another step includes one of the first party and the call center selecting a third party to perform the requested action. The selection being based at least in part upon the predetermined preferences. Yet another step includes the call center contacting the third party through the secure portal and arranging for performance of the requested action by the third party.

  • Publication number: 20040142093
    Abstract: The invention provides a confectionery bar comprising a proteinaceous material and a carbohydrate material in a relative weight ratio higher than 1 (from 1:0 to about 1:0.999). The bar produced is very palatable and chewy and has good organoleptic properties. It may be coated (enrobed) or not as desired. The product of the invention provides a meal replacement for very low calorie diets, diet supplement or protein supplement, and may optionally comprise a carbohydrate material of low digestibility or indigestible nature.

  • Patent number: 6736314
    Abstract: Methods and systems for transferring funds are disclosed that utilize a transfer card issued to a sender that enables the sender to transfer funds at independent host locations. The transfer card is encoded with information about the sender and the intended receiver so that transfer forms are not required for each transaction. The receiver obtains the funds via a distribution center, wherein the personal identity of the receiver is verified before the funds are distributed.

  • Patent number: 6634026
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a repair program for multiple versions of computer programs that have a common error by using a pattern search and substitution technique. The invention includes identifying a common error in a main computer program, finding a common code section that contains the common error, and locating a segment of the common code section that is modifiable. The code section is then modified by optimizing the code to perform the same functionality and adding additional code to correct the error. A repair program is then written to search other versions of the main computer program and perform the modification step automatically without having to manipulate the source or machine code manually on the various versions of the software.
