Abstract: A system and method for non-retained electronic messaging is described. In one embodiment, the system includes a message receiver module, a message storing and identifier generation module, a message retrieval module and an expunging module. The message receiver module receives a message. The message storing and identifier generation module stores the message in a non-transitory, non-persistent memory of one or more computing devices, generates a message identifier and sends the message identifier to a recipient device. The message retrieval module receives a selection of the message identifier from the recipient device, retrieves the message from the non-transitory, non-persistent memory, and sends the message to the recipient device for presentation. The expunging module expunges the message from the one or more devices responsive to sending the message to the recipient device for presentation.

Abstract: A system for speeding up rendering of and interacting with one or more web pages to accomplish some task using the internet. In a system comprising one or more client computers which can be cell phones, laptops or desktop computers coupled in any way to the internet and a template server and other web servers coupled to the internet, a microbrowser under control of a task workflow template is executed either by a client computer or the template server. The task workflow templates are custom defined workflows which define one or more web pages which need to be accessed and the data from each web page that needs to be extracted. The data defined in the task workflow template (and only that data) is extracted by the microbrowser and displayed on the client computer. Faster rendering results.

Abstract: A computer system splits a data space to partition data between processors or processes. The data space may be split into sub-regions which need not be orthogonal to the axes defined the data space's parameters, using a decision tree. The decision tree can have neural networks in each of its non-terminal nodes that are trained on, and are used to partition, training data. Each terminal, or leaf, node can have a hidden layer neural network trained on the training data that reaches the terminal node. The training of the non-terminal nodes' neural networks can be performed on one processor and the training of the leaf nodes' neural networks can be run on separate processors. Different target values can be used for the training of the networks of different non-terminal nodes. The non-terminal node networks may be hidden layer neural networks.

Abstract: A flexible intermediate bulk container includes a number of flexible elements sewn to each other along longitudinally extending seams, at least two of the elements being tubular.

Abstract: A support between the floor (22) and the roof (24) of e.g. a mine stope, is made by using an inflatable container comprising an inner bag (10), received in an outer bag (12). An inlet valve (14) extends through both bags as does a relatively higher pressure relief outlet valve (16). In use, air is pumped into the container until it is fully inflated, following by a grout, the air escaping via the valve (16) until the inner bag (10) is filled.
