Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods to create an open system for the disclosure and development of technologies. Innovators and/or brands having technologies may upload technology disclosures to system components. Source(s) of monetary funding may view the technology disclosures and decide to fund research and development of one or more technologies. Source(s) of monetary funding may include individuals, and the system may be operated in part as a crowdfunding platform. Disclosures of the technologies may be formatted as grant applications or submissions in response to a request for proposals. One or more researchers may access the disclosures of the technologies, the innovators, and/or the brands to collaborate in the development of the technologies. The researchers may include one or more individuals having a doctoral degree. This collaboration may result in the generation of manuscripts, and the manuscripts may become pre-peer reviewed articles available for publication by a journal.

Abstract: It is a first aspect of the present invention to provide a content publishing system that includes back end digital content capable of being modified, an interactive user device displaying fixed front end content, the interactive user device further adapted to transmit one or more request signals associated with the fixed front end content, a server device adapted to store back end digital content and transmit one or more response signals associated with the back end digital content in response to receiving the or more request signals, and a user computer device adapted to receive the one or more response signals associated with the back end digital content, the user computer device further adapted to output the back end digital content on an output device. The one or more response signals correspond to back end digital content.

Abstract: It is one aspect of the present invention to provide a method of digital content delivery including the steps of: (a) providing a client device for displaying digital content and a server device for storing digital content; (b) transmitting a first signal from the client device to the server device; (c) verifying by the server device that the client device is authorized to access the digital content; (d) upon verification, generating a temporary file by the server device, the temporary file being temporarily mapped to a location of the digital content; (e) transmitting a second signal from the server device to the client device, the second signal including information associated with a location of the temporary file; (f) linking by the client device to the location of the temporary file; and (g) transmitting the digital content from the server device to the client device.
