Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing a graphical user interface to present electronic messages. In one embodiment, the method includes providing a user interface presenting a first electronic message to a recipient, where the first electronic message is associated with a segment of a second electronic message. The method further includes identifying the associated segment of the second electronic message to the recipient in the user interface, and allowing the recipient to view the second electronic message in an original form.

Abstract: A method and system for optimizing transmission of electronic messages. In one embodiment, the method includes maintaining a database to store electronic messages received from various clients. The method further includes receiving a new electronic message from a client, determining whether the new electronic message is associated with one or more messages stored in the database. If the new electronic message is not associated with any messages stored in the database, the new electronic message is sent to the recipients. If the new electronic message is associated with some messages stored in the database, the new electronic message is sent to the recipients, and in addition, the associated messages that are not stored locally at a particular recipient are sent to this recipient.

Abstract: An embodiment relates generally to a method of assigning roles to a token. The method includes determining a first role for a first participant on a token and providing exclusive access to a first section of the token for the first participant base on the first role. The method also includes determining a second role for a second participant on the token and providing exclusive access to a second section of the token for the second participant based on the second role.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide for recycling a locked token in an enterprise. A secure connection can be established between a locked token and a server and a security process activated to determine an identity of an authorized user of the locked token. An unlock procedure can be activated to unlock the locked token upon receipt of an out-of-band parameter associated with a requester of the unlock procedure to produce an unlocked token. The out-of-band parameter can be provided by the requester of the unlock procedure in an independent communication to an enterprise agent associated with the security server so as to verify that the requester is the authorized user of the locked token. A password reset process associated with a new password for the unlocked token can be activated to provide an assigned password or a password entered by the requester.

Abstract: In one embodiment, an apparatus and method for partitioning data on a smartcard dependent on an entered password are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method includes maintaining multiple containers in a smartcard, associating a different personal identification number (PIN) with each of the multiple containers, and accessing contents of a container when an associated PIN for the container is provided by a user of the smartcard. Other embodiments are also described.

Abstract: In certain aspects, designating an attribute of at least one shared image at least partially with a designating shared image device that can be utilized to capture an image with at least one capturing shared image device. In other aspects, synchronizing a capturing shared image device to a sharing session in a manner that at least partially allows conveying between the capturing shared image device with at least another shared image device at least some shared images captured during the sharing session.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and systems that may be used for detection of one or more pathogens and determining one or more agents in response to pathogen detection.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, computer program products, devices and systems are described that carry out accepting an input identifying at least one allergy, accessing data containing at least one innate determinant associated with the at least one allergy, and accessing data containing at least one acquired determinant associated with the at least one allergy; and presenting a signal related to ingestion-dependent allergy information associated with a defined level of the at least one allergy in response to accessing data containing at least one innate determinant associated with the at least one allergy, and accessing data containing at least one acquired determinant associated with the at least one allergy.

Abstract: A method and system provides arrangements creating a relationship between a real-world entity and a virtual world environment. A participant or player can participate in various virtual world experiences including activities, settings, events, purchases, sales and diverse transactions to acquire virtual products, virtual services, and/or virtual items of value. Feedback may be provided and records kept regarding the virtual world participation. In some circumstances, multiple persons can participate as a group or participate as individuals in the virtual world environment. Some embodiments provide an oversight procedure that enables a supervisory entity to exercise direct or indirect control over certain virtual world aspects of a participant or player. In some implementations the oversight procedure is at least partially based on an attribute related to the participant or player.

Abstract: A technique includes obtaining an operational capacity of an imaging device. The technique can also include estimating one or more operational resources to perform an image transformation that estimates whether the imaging device has adequate operational capacity to transform one or more images.

Abstract: Methods and systems for sterilizing one or more areas or one or more portions of one or more areas are described. In some embodiments, the methods and systems can be used to sterilize one or more areas or one or more portions of one or more areas through use of sterilizing radiation. In some embodiments, the methods and systems can be utilized so that objects, such as humans, that are within one or more areas or one or more portions of one or more areas are not substantially irradiated with sterilizing radiation.

Abstract: Exemplary embodiments are disclosed that provide a customized technique for marking medication and other health-related products with a visual identifier that includes a recognizable symbolic aspect to facilitate proper administration of a substance dosage to designated patent. Display implementations of the visual identifier may be incorporated in various product packaging components. A possible supplemental visual identifier may be incorporated in the product packaging components to suggest recommended usage aspects of the substance dosage.

Abstract: A classification method and system for possible content alteration of a media work may include criteria regarding content that is feasible for alteration. Such criteria may be maintained in records that are accessible to an interested party. Some embodiments may include a record of primary authorization rights applicable to a possible content alteration. A further embodiment feature may include a record of secondary authorization rights applicable to substitute altered content incorporated in a derivative version. Various systems and methods may be used to incorporate substitute content in a derivative version of the media work in compliance with applicable modification guidelines. In some instances substitute promotional content may have some association with a real-world topic or real-world entity or real-world person.
