Abstract: A system for remediating accessible files includes a computing device for receiving from an entity a plurality of files associated with a particular document type for a particular company, identifying and selecting a set of XML-based files within the plurality of files, wherein said set of XML-based files includes inaccessible code or content that is not accessible to persons with disabilities that use assistive technologies, reading metadata of the set of XML-based files and identifying a document type in said metadata, selecting a matching XML template from a plurality of XML templates, wherein said matching XML template corresponds to the document type, generating and storing a plurality of accessible files constructed from a combination of the set of XML-based files and the particular XML template, and transmitting the plurality of accessible files over the communications network to another computing device for publication.

Abstract: A system for managing and publishing material non-public information (MNPI) over a communications network includes a database including a restricted area configured for storing MNPI documents, the restricted area located on an overlay network that requires special credentials to access, a web server for receiving the plurality of MNPI documents over the communications network, encrypting MNPI documents and storing the MNPI documents that were encrypted in the restricted area, at a predetermined time, unencrypting the MNPI documents and storing the MNPI documents that were unencrypted in an area of the database that is not restricted, generating and publishing a web page that is publicly available over the communications network, wherein the web page includes a separate link to each MNPI document that was unencrypted and wherein the web page is located on a web site of a company.

Abstract: A system and method for facilitating the provision of accessible files over a communications network includes a web server for polling an entity to determine whether a files for a particular company have been published, downloading said plurality files, identifying inaccessible XML-based files, and remediating them using a predefined accessible template, thereby generating accessible files, identifying a non-XML-based inaccessible files and remediating them using a rules engine, thereby generating accessible files, and generating and publishing a web page that is publicly available over the communications network, wherein the web page includes a separate link to each particular file of the accessible files, wherein said web page is located on a web site of the particular company.

Abstract: Systems and methods to implement the initialization and steady state operation of a system for geolocation-aided unique signal recognition (USR). The unique signal recognition (USR) technique uses geospatial location data (geolocation data), labeled datasets, expert curated datasets, and partially labeled “enhanced” datasets for training a machine-learning radio frequency signal recognition model (also referred to as “RF recognition model” (RFRM)) to recognize and locate certain RF signal emitters of interest. The unique signal recognition may utilize a variety of data clustering techniques that operate on batches of data, comprising a corpus of linked RF data and derived features.

Abstract: A system for facilitating the provision of accessible financial documents over a communications network includes a web server for polling a regulatory agency to determine if it has published certain regulatory documents, downloading said regulatory documents, identifying inaccessible documents of the regulatory documents, generating a corresponding accessible document for each inaccessible document, storing the accessible documents, storing in a data structure a reference to each inaccessible document in association with a reference to a corresponding accessible, and at the same time the inaccessible SEC filing is made public, generating and publishing a web page that is publicly available over the communications network, wherein the web page includes a separate link to each of the regulatory documents, and a separate link the accessible documents, the web page formatted such that each link to an accessible document is written in association with a link to a corresponding regulatory document.

Abstract: A deep ultraviolet light source includes a master oscillator producing a seed light beam; a regenerative ring amplifier receiving the seed light beam from the master oscillator and outputting an output light beam, the regenerative ring amplifier including a set of optical components that define a plane of a closed ring; and a divergence control device within the master oscillator or between the master oscillator and the regenerative ring amplifier and configured to reduce a divergence of the output light beam along a normal direction, the normal direction being perpendicular to the plane of the ring.

Abstract: A manufacturing device for use with a vibratory conveyor having a product transporting bed, and a method for manufacturing a product is described and which includes a flexible substrate having a first upper course, and a second lower course which rests upon a product transporting bed of a vibratory conveyor, and wherein a product which is being manufactured and transported by the vibratory conveyor travels between the upper and lower courses of the flexible substrate as the product moves along the vibratory conveyor.

Abstract: A system and method for buffering streaming audio data or other media sources to client devices, where said system maintains a constant buffering time by adjusting the low water mark of the play buffer based on the bit rate of the stream to a level such that the time for the play buffer to fill to the low water mark is constant for all streams.

Abstract: An assembly for locking a trailer hitch to a trailer ball. The inventive device includes a mounting plate securable between a hitch ball and a vehicle hitch. A trailer tongue securing assembly is pivotally mounted to the mounting plate and can be pivoted over the hitch ball to capture a trailer tongue therebetween. A ball securing assembly is pivotally mounted to the mounting plate and can be positioned over a mounting shank of the ball to preclude removal of the ball. A lock assembly extends between the ball securing assembly and the trailer tongue securing assembly to preclude unauthorized or unintentional decoupling of the hitch.
