Abstract: An exercise equipment and method for use is disclosed having a program that calls for user specific anthropometric data and then utilizes the data to create a user specific workout program based on the user's physical characteristics. The user inputs of personal anthropometric data includes, but is not limited to, sex, height, weight, goals, maximum heart rate, maximum run speed, maximum walk speed, and VO2 max. These inputs are used to optimize a workout program either in single use or multiple use applications. Moreover, data can be stored locally, on a network, or transferred to a cloud based repository for recall.

Abstract: A light-weight, hands-free automatic flashlight designed to precisely illuminate the working target area when a screwdriver or other similar tool is being used, not requiring the support or handling from an additional hand as it is inserted into the actual tool being used, and provides this help not obstructing the line of sight.

Abstract: According to the invention, a system for downloading a plurality of content objects from the Internet to a computer of a user is disclosed. The system includes first and second web pages, a database and a media server. The first web page allows selection of the number of content objects. The second web page includes a link to an application that includes embedded information that correlates the number of content objects to the application. The database stores the number of content objects. The media server composes an application that includes the embedded information. The number of content objects are selected by a user from the first web page. The media server allows download of the number of content objects after receiving the embedded information from a computer of a user.

Abstract: A method for increasing transfer quality between a content requestor and a content source on a content distribution system. The method involves determining transfer quality between the requestor and various content sources. The determination is made from the requestor's perspective. After determining transfer qualities for the various content sources, the requester provides the transfer qualities to a selector on the content distribution system. The selector uses the determined transfer qualities select a content source to supply the requestor.

Abstract: A computer peripheral device mounting arrangement has a pair of computer peripheral device mounts. Each computer peripheral device mount includes a computer peripheral device side bracket that is mounted on an exterior sidewall of the computer peripheral device. Each computer peripheral device mount also includes a drive bay bracket fixedly positioned in a drive bay. Clips and slots provide a non-locking securement arrangement on the computer peripheral device side bracket and the drive bay bracket. The computer peripheral device side bracket and the drive bay bracket of each computer peripheral device mount is secured by a single screw that prevents relative movement between the computer peripheral device side bracket and the drive bay bracket.

Abstract: The invention relates to the interaction between the electronic directory and sites cataloged therein. One embodiment of a directory system includes a first and second conduit, a receiver function and a global catalog. The first conduit runs between the directory and a first site and the second conduit runs between the directory and a second site. The receiver function accepts the first local catalog of directory information from the first site and the second local content catalog of directory information from the second site. The global catalog of directory information includes the first local catalog and the second local catalog.

Abstract: A system for providing reconfigurable graphical user interfaces. An original GUI, such as one might use to control an audio or video player application program, is modified by a designer such that the end-user of the GUI can alter individual subsections of the GUI or alternatively designate such sections as non-reconfigurable. The designer thus controls the properties of the GUI, while allowing the end-user to individual aspects of the GUI.

Abstract: A system for identifying files can use fingerprints to compare various files and determine redundant files. Frequency representations of portions of files can be used, such as Fast Fourier Transforms, as the fingerprints.

Abstract: The invention relates to gathering information for a networked directory. In one embodiment, a method for gathering information for a directory on a packet switched network is disclosed. In one step, a directory is determined for a first web site. The directory is reported to a second web site a first time. After detecting changes on the first web site, the directory is updated with the changes. The directory is reported to a second web site a second time.

Abstract: A system relating to distributing content objects to a client computer. One system includes a server, a first content cache, a second content cache and a preference list. The first server is at a first address and the second server is at a second address. The server includes a content object that is copied to the first and second content caches. Originating from a client computer, the preference list includes at least one of the first and second addresses. A multiple address system provides for metadata to be combined with a first location for an object. A port identifier can be added to the address to allow a desired port to be referenced. The port identifier allows a predetermined port to be addressed in response to an inquiry.

Abstract: The invention relates to routing delivery of content from a network. In one embodiment, a method for client-side routing of a content object between a plurality of datapaths to a server is disclosed. A first datapath with the server is associated with a first party. A second datapath with the server is associated with a second party. The client computer is used to automatically determine which of the first and second datapaths to receive the content object from.

Abstract: According to the invention, a method for encapsulating information in an encoded uniform resource identifier (URI) having a plurality of fields that is presented by a web site to a user for selection during an interaction session between the web site and the user is disclosed. In one step, a URI field is chosen for encapsulating the information. First information is determined that comprises at least one of second information and third information. The third information is unrelated to the interaction session. Fifth information related to the first information is formatted to create sixth information. Sixth information is embedded in the field to form the encoded URI. The encoded URI is presented to the user.

Abstract: A peer-to-peer caching system can be utilized to cache a file residing on a content providing computer. The cached file can be stored on a caching computer. A computer that requests a file from a content providing computer can be rerouted to the caching computer so as to obtain the file.

Abstract: According to the invention, a method for playing a streamed content object using hypertext transport protocol (HTTP) transport is disclosed. In one step, a first portion of the streamed content object is received from a packet switched network using HTTP. The first portion is played at least partially coincident in time with the first listed receiving step. A second portion of the streamed content object is received. The second portion is not contiguous in the streamed content object to the first portion.

Abstract: According to the invention, a way for loading content objects in a content store on a network is disclosed. In one step, processing waits for a triggering event. It is determined if a first origin server is authorized to store content in the content store. A first content object is loaded from the first origin server onto the content store without a request for the first content object. It is determined if a second origin server is authorized to store content in the content store. A second content object is loaded from the second origin server onto the content store without a request for the second content object.
