Patent number: 8725889Abstract: The present invention provides an electronic message management system (EMS) that includes a real-time feedback loop where data is collected from the electronic messages on incoming connection attempts, outgoing delivery attempts, and message content analysis, and written to a centralized data matrix. A separate process accesses the data matrix and analyzes trends in that data. The detected data patterns, trends or behavior is based on configuration parameters for the recipient. Based on these determinations, the process is able to instruct components in the EMS to accept, redirect, refuse, modify, defer, or otherwise dispose of the connection request, the delivery attempt, or the message. Associated methods for managing the transmission of electronic messages are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: March 1, 2007Date of Patent: May 13, 2014Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Scott M. Petry, Shinya Akamine, Peter Kevin Lund, Fred Cox, Michael John Oswall

Publication number: 20110138041Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for detecting unwanted electronic message transmissions on a communications network. These include establishing a database for storing metadata associated with message traffic according to at least the source addresses of the senders of electronic message transmissions. The disclosed principles also include monitoring electronic message transmissions at the certain location on the electronic communications network. Also, included is populating the database with metadata derived from analysis of the monitored electronic messages, where the metadata includes metadata derived by analyzing the contents of the monitored electronic messages.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 7, 2011Publication date: June 9, 2011Applicant: GOOGLE INC.Inventors: Scott M. Petry, Shinya Akamine, Peter Kevin Lund, Fred Cox, Michael John Oswall

Patent number: 7584264Abstract: Data storage and retrieval systems and related methods are disclosed herein. In one aspect, a system includes data processing servers configured to receive incoming data and transmit the data for storage. The system also includes data storage servers each coupled to one or more data storage units and configured to receive transmitted data for writing to the one or more data storage units, and to read data from the one or more data storage units. Furthermore, the systems may include data retrieval servers coupled to one or more of the data storage servers and configured to retrieve data from the one or more data storage units. The system further includes process modules each associated with one of the data storage servers, where at least two of the process modules are configured to write a portion of the data to corresponding data storage units.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 2003Date of Patent: September 1, 2009Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Fredric L. Cox, Dorion A. Carroll, Peter Kevin Lund, Michael J. Oswall, Scott M. Petry, Jon H. Prall

Patent number: 7208322Abstract: The present invention provides a sensor surface comprising: a substrate coated with a free electron metal; and a matrix layer disposed on the free electron metal, wherein the matrix layer comprises an organic compound having a boronic acid complexing moiety. The matrix is preferably a self-assembled monolayer (SAM), a mixed self-assembled monolayer (mSAM), or combinations thereof.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 2002Date of Patent: April 24, 2007Assignee: Agilent Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Mark L. Stolowitz, Jean P. Wiley, Guisheng Li, Kevin Lund

Publication number: 20070068711Abstract: A zero turning radius mower has a dual hydrostatic pump with right and left pump arms. A linkage between the pump arms and a pair of control levers destrokes both sides of the pump simultaneously if engine speed drops below a specified value. The linkage allows each pump arm to have a first stroke range if the engine powering the pump is above the specified value, and a second smaller stroke range if the engine powering the pump is below the specified value.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2005Publication date: March 29, 2007Inventors: Brian Adkins, Kevin Lund

Publication number: 20060248869Abstract: A convertible mower deck has a plurality of adjoining cutting chambers under a mower deck, each cutting chamber having a cutting blade mounted to the lower end of a vertical spindle. The deck includes openings between adjoining cutting chambers, a discharge opening from one of the cutting chambers, a blower mounted in a housing outside the discharge opening, and a protective cover between the discharge opening and the blower housing. Gates are mounted under the deck at the openings between adjoining cutting chambers and at the discharge opening. A control structure moves the gates to change the size of the openings. The gates may be in an open position for the grass clippings to be discharged or collected, a closed position for the grass clippings to be mulched, and one or more intermediate positions for some of the clippings to be discharged or collected, and the remainder to be mulched.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 4, 2005Publication date: November 9, 2006Inventors: Jeffrey Chenevert, Kevin Lund
