  • Patent number: 11128995
    Abstract: A device and method is provided for signaling an affinity of a peer device. According to one embodiment, the device receives a wireless signal from the peer device and determines the presence of the peer device based on the received signal. The device is able to detect the peer device when the peer device is within the vicinity or a certain proximity of the device. The received signal carries an affinity code of the peer device so that the device can detect the affinity of the peer device by comparing the received affinity code with its preset affinity code. If the two affinity code match, the device notifies the user of the presence of another user and signals that the two users share the same affinity.

  • Patent number: 8392818
    Abstract: Methods for efficiently publishing electronic versions of traditionally paper-based government forms and utilizing the electronic forms for web-based transactional services are disclosed. Standard paper-based government forms are automatically converted to XML format, including data fields for entry of information by customers. Multiple electronic forms are accessible to the customer at a single access point, such as a web site. At the web site, the customer selects a form for filing with any of a plurality of government agencies. When presented to the customer, the selected form is presented with some of its data fields being pre-populated according to information retrieved from a database and specific to that customer. The customer completes the form, and a back-end system integrated with the web site handles the completed form, determines the appropriate government agency for filing the form, and transmits it as a transaction to the determined government agency.

  • Publication number: 20110028129
    Abstract: A match-making system allows users possessing mobile communications devices such as cell phones and/or PDAs to be alerted to the proximity of other users that may be a romantic, professional or other “match” to the user of interest based on a comparison of profile properties. The system may operate via a near-field radio-frequency system such as Bluetooth or a cellular or other relatively far-field wireless system, or a combination of the two in a complimentary manner. The disclosed system also allows a connection between the users to be made if desired by both users, and otherwise allows one or the other user to decline a connection. Matching by the system may be used for social or business purposes.

  • Publication number: 20050132201
    Abstract: Electronic signature functions, such as electronically signing an electronic record, verification of an electronic signature and issuance of keys, may be performed by a server or other central computer. For electronic signing, the server may access a key on a protected database and encryption programs to electronically sign an electronic record. For signature verification, the server may receive the electronic record and electronic signature, determine a key to decrypt the electronic signature, and then determine whether the electronic signature is valid. For issuance of keys, the server may receive a user request to generate keys, may generate the keys, and store the keys in a database which is accessible by the server, but which may not be accessible by the user.
