  • Patent number: 8521197
    Abstract: A method and system are described for including information in a message (200) between an originating and a destination communication terminal. In order to automatically include dynamic information in the message (200) the user may insert one or more predetermined codes (230) in the message body (260). Each of the codes (230) consists of one or more symbols and specifies the information to be included in the message. The specified information is retrieved for example from external servers available on the Internet and is included in the message body.

  • Patent number: 8442503
    Abstract: System and method for enabling proximity-triggered messaging in certain coverage areas for social networks and communities-based services. The system includes at least one local unit with cellular radio transceiver, located within a corresponding coverage area. The cellular transceiver broadcasts a LAC different from any other LAC of the radio cells in the surroundings; establishes a Location Update dialogue with any mobile phone answering to the LAC broadcast, obtaining its IMSI number; sends a Location Updating Reject message to each mobile phone whose IMSI number has been obtained; and sends said IMSI number to a central unit. The central unit obtains, for each IMSI number, one valid identity in a community-based service; and provides at least one social network server associated to the corresponding valid on-line identity with the valid identity.

  • Patent number: 6472227
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a fluorescence polarization immunoassay for barbiturates, to the various components needed for preparing and carrying out such an assay, and to methods of making these components. Specifically, tracers, immunogens and antibodies are disclosed, as well as methods for preparing them and a reagent kit containing them. The tracers and the immunogens are made from substituted barbiturate compounds. A fluorescein moiety is included in the tracer, while a poly(amino acid) forms a part of the immunogen. The assay is conducted by measuring the degree of polarization retention of plane—polarized light that has been passed through a sample containing antiserum and tracer.
