Abstract: A method for sending a URL from a computing device to a recipient's mobile device, the method includes: generating a URL notification during an Internet session on a computing device; sending the URL notification to an Asynchronous URL Notification daemon; composing a Control SMS that comprises the URL; locating compatible communication devices; wherein the locating is performed with the daemon interacting with a local Bluetooth stack to identify the communication devices; wherein the communication devices are Bluetooth enabled devices that support an Asynchronous URL Notification profile; generating a list of communication devices; receiving the user's selection of a communication device; pairing the selected communication device with the computing device; retrieving an address book from the selected communication device; and displaying a list of recipients from the address book; sending the Control SMS to a recipient's mobile device in response to the user selection from the list of recipients.

Abstract: A process for modulating a vehicle's engine function in response to local pollution levels is described, as is a control unit specifically designed to implement the process. The process controller is referred to as the Green Compliance Module (“GCM”), which is integrated into the vehicle's wireless communication system. After receiving the wireless messages containing locality-specific pollution data and the applicable locality-specific threshold it is sent to the GCM. The GCM determines (i.e., calculates) the difference, if any, between the current pollution and/or engine emission levels and the applicable threshold values. The result of this calculation determines whether the vehicle's mechanical components, i.e., organs, will continue to operate normally or are either collectively or selectively modulated in order to decrease the vehicle's contribution of fuel emissions to the local pollution conditions.
