Publication number: 20240078331Abstract: Systems and methods for providing temporary guest access to a media playback system are disclosed. An example implementation involves a computing device configured to generate, after receiving a request from a control device, a guest account operative for a particular period of time. During the particular period of time, the guest account has access to at least one functionality in the media playback system. After the particular period of time and based on one or more messages received from the control device, the commuting device stores the set of data in association with the guest identifier. Based on receiving a request to generate a user account associated with the guest identifier, the computing device generates the user account using the set of data, wherein the user account is associated with the same user as the guest profile and dissociated from the host media playback system.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 21, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Inventors: Dinesh KANNAN, Xue BIN, Elliot LAWRENCE

Publication number: 20230107272Abstract: A control application of a media playback system controls playback of media content by a media playback system. The application receives, from a media streaming service, a page object that identifies (i) a page format identifier, (ii) page content data, (iii) a set of page elements, and (iv) a respective element format identifier for each page element of the set of page elements. The application determines a first set of formatting rules using the page format identifier and displays a corresponding page that includes the page content data formatted using the first set of formatting rules. The application asynchronously receives media content data identifying media content available for streaming. Based on a respective element format identifier of the page element associated with the media content data, the application determines a second set of formatting rules, which the application uses to update the displayed page to display the media content data.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 8, 2022Publication date: April 6, 2023Inventors: David Bernstein, Konstantin Vovk, Lee Fyock, Andrew Woodbury, Emilio Arce, Elliot Lawrence

Patent number: 9122729Abstract: A method that builds a chain-of-custody for archived data is disclosed to ensure the integrity and reliability of the archived data. In one implementation, by using a certified Time Stamp Authority (TSA), an indelible record of each time the archived data is touched (e.g. created, stored, retrieved, accessed, tested, moved, or transformed) is generated to build verifiable links between events to ensure the custody of the data can be audited and verified that it has remained intact throughout its lifetime. The chain-of-custody, in combination with the storage architecture that ensures archive data has not changed through various software and hardware means (e.g., multiple hash signatures to ensure integrity, timestamp authorities to pinpoint each time the archived data was touched, location information to pinpoint physical location, and coordinated chain of custody on multiple replicas of the digital artifact) validates that the archived data has not changed since it was archived.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2010Date of Patent: September 1, 2015Assignee: Cumulus Data LLCInventors: Joel Michael Love, Daniel Joseph Moore, Elliot Lawrence Gould, Laurence G. Walker, Timothy Allen Wright

Publication number: 20100257140Abstract: A method and system to store and retrieve archival data and indefinitely storing the data is disclosed. By using caches and large volumes of commodity disk drives controlled in a dynamic or scheduled way, power consumption of the archive system is reduced. Archive data is transferred to the archive facility via a channel, such as electronic or physical transportation, depending on a set of customer service level parameters. Archived data is replicated to a second facility to guard against multiple device failures or site disasters. The archived data is protected from erasure by both keeping the media predominantly unpowered and disabling writing to the media once it has been filled to capacity. The system provides access to indexable host and customer-specific metadata across the entire infrastructure without powering the media. All customer archive data is segregated from all other data by residing on per customer dedicated media.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 31, 2010Publication date: October 7, 2010Inventors: Philip John Davis, Joel Michael Love, Elliot Lawrence Gould, Nathan Louis Hall, Daniel Joseph Moore

Publication number: 20080261202Abstract: Polyfunctional reagents are disclosed that are capable of reversibly binding to target substances, for example nucleic acid, proteins, polypeptides, cells, cell components, microorganisms or viruses, for use in purifying or otherwise manipulating them. The reagents comprise a tagging group for manipulating and/or detecting the target substance when bound to the polyfunctional reagent. The polyfunctional reagents work by binding the target substance at a first pH and then releasing it at a second pH, usually higher than the first. Examples of tagging groups include tagging group members of a specific binding pair which is capable of binding to a specific binding partner and/or a label.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 27, 2008Publication date: October 23, 2008Applicant: INVITROGEN CORPORATIONInventors: Matthew Baker, Simon Douglas, Elliot Lawrence

Patent number: 6750638Abstract: A linear regulator includes at least two control loops that monitor different control variables of the output signal. The error signal of the first control loop serves as the reference signal for the second control loop. The conversion of one control variable to the other increases phase margin and improves stability of the frequency response. Also, a capacitor can be coupled to the output of the linear regulator to improve small signal and transient response.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2002Date of Patent: June 15, 2004Assignee: National Semiconductor CorporationInventor: Elliot Lawrence Gang
