Abstract: A media-defined optical logic circuit composed of a set of light-transmitting polyhedral prisms arranged so that a pair of adjacent prisms can exchange photonic signals through adjacent surfaces. Each prism contains one or more quantum dots that, when excited by a photonic signal received from an adjacent prism, respond by emitting light that becomes an incoming photonic signal for an adjacent prism. Photonic signals are propagated through the circuit in this manner along light-guide paths created by shading certain surfaces to render them fully or partially opaque. The prisms and shading are arranged such that the circuit performs a certain logic function. When the circuit receives a set of photonic input signals representing a binary input value, the circuit responds by emitting a set of photonic output signals that represent a binary output value determined by performing the logic function upon the binary input value.

Abstract: Computing systems, methods and tools for performing a secure electronic transaction between buyer and merchant. The transaction being able to be implemented without either party having to transmit confidential information between the parties of the transaction. The secure electronic transaction is mediated by a transaction system operating as part of a remotely accessible network or cloud computing environment. The buyer and the merchant register identifying information, payment information, shipping/billing information along with other confidential information to be stored by the transaction system prior to commencing the transaction. The buyer and merchant use assigned ID numbers or truncated versions thereof when transmitting transactional data and transactional approvals through the transaction system.
