Abstract: A transfer client system exchanges files with a transfer server over an open network such as the Internet. The transfer client comprises a download directory for storing binary objects obtained from a transfer client server for subsequent retrieval by a local data processing system. The transfer client sends a log-on message to a remote transfer server over the open network, the log-on message including the authentication credentials. In response a session ID is obtained from the remote transfer server. The transfer client further sends a read event message to the remote transfer server over the open network, the read event message including the session ID. Event parameters are returned in response, the event parameters comprise identification of a file name and identification of the download directory. The transfer client sends a download message to the remote transfer server over the open network, the download message comprises the session ID and identification of a binary object.

Abstract: A web server system provides for the secure exchanging files with a remote transfer server over an open network such as the Internet. The transfer server operates a plurality of transfer methods.

Abstract: A transfer client system exchanges files with a transfer server over an open network such as the Internet. The transfer client comprises an upload directory for storing files for subsequent transfer to the transfer server, an authentication registry securely storing authentication credentials, and a transfer client. The transfer client sends a log-on message to a remote transfer server over a secure transport protocol logical connection established over the open network. The log-on message includes the authentication credentials. In response the transfer client receives a session ID from the remote transfer server. The transfer client then sends a read event message to the remote transfer server which includes Session ID obtained from the remote transfer server. In response the transfer client obtains event parameters which include identification of a file name and an upload directory path previously stored in an events parameter table.

Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of implementing an optical element having a refraction modulating composition. The methods include using a wavefront sensor to provide an optical measurement of the optical element. The present invention also relates to systems comprising an optical element having a refraction modulating composition and a wavefront sensor.

Abstract: An automated invoice management system includes an unattended interface module and an invoice management server that automatically exchange invoice files over the Internet between a local network that is associated with the interface module and the invoice management server. The exchange comprises establishing a secure session between the interface module and the invoice management server and transferring the invoice files over the secure session between the invoice management server and a directory location on the local network that is a directory location identified by the invoice management server to the interface module.

Abstract: An automated invoice management system includes a network circuit for communicating invoice transactions with a plurality of client systems. The automated invoice management system receives an import invoice transaction compliant with a first client transaction definition from a first client system. The import invoice transaction identifies a second client system using values that are recognized by the first client system. The import invoice transaction is translated to a normalized invoice transaction and the normalized transaction is translated to an export invoice transaction compliant with a second client transaction definition. The first client system is identified in the export invoice transaction using values recognized by the second client system.
