Abstract: A system is provided for automated cross-network monitoring of computing hardware and software status. In particular, the system may track the status of various computing resources using process automation-based operations to simulate calls made by users to the various resources that the users are authorized to access. Based on said operations, the system may assess whether the authorized pathways to the resources and/or their respective components are properly functioning by capturing information regarding the resource, its associated components, and the current status of the resource. The results of these operations may be aggregated to provide an overview of which resources and/or systems are functioning and which are not. In this way, the system may provide a detailed view of the statuses of the individual resources and components within an entity's complex computing network.

Abstract: A computer based banking system in which at least selected clients termed participating system members have access to a remote device adapted to communicate with the computer base banking system such that financial transactions can be conducted by remote operation of the remote device by the participating system member to result in the debiting of a financial data base record associated with an instructing participating system member and in the crediting of a different financial data base record. Each data base record is identified by a conventional account number generated to conform to banking numbering standards as well as a linked communication number.

Each data base record is identified by a conventional account number generated to conform to banking numbering standards as well as a linked communication number different from the relevant bank account number and composed of at least two component strings of numbers and/or letters, one of which is a number regionally unique to the participating system member, and the other of which is a bank identifying number unique to the particular bank at least on a regional basis.

Abstract: A method of compiling byte code into native code disclosed together with a server (100) and a receiving terminal (101) for the same. The method comprises the steps of transmitting byte code files containing byte code from a server to a receiving terminal; transmitting grouping information relating to the grouping of byte code files to the receiving terminal; and compiling byte code files received at the receiving terminal to native code. The byte code files are selected for compilation as a function of the grouping of byte code files.

Abstract: The invention provides a system for conducting commercial transactions in an economic environment including one or more banking institutions, a plurality of merchants (as defined), and a plurality of participating system members (as defined) associated with at least one cellular telephone network. The system employs an independent general computerized server accessible to participating system members and merchants by way of a wireless network, and capable of on-line communication with banking institutions and vendors. The server includes at least a financial data base record for each participating system member, merchant and participating vendor and enables a participating system member, by suitable activation of that member's mobile device, typically a cellular telephone, in a remote location, to conduct a financial transaction by debiting a financial data base record allocated to the instructing participating system member.
