Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to systems and methods for integration of systems associated with ticketing, advertising, membership, social networking, merchandizing, and/or similar commercially valuable functions. An integrated marketplace system, referred to variously as an integrated system or integrated portal, may comprise or communicate with modules for retail services, social networking, marketing information, ticketing sales, merchandise sales, membership services, or any other type and form of module. In some embodiments, the systems and methods discussed herein allow teams, bands, event operators or other attraction providers to sell tickets direct to consumers or fans, reducing fees and costs due to ticket resellers, while retaining customer information for future targeted marketing.

Abstract: A processor control system for controlling items of hardware includes pairs of processors associated with the hardware items. One processor of each pair operates the process or processes for controlling the associated hardware, while the other processor of each pair operates other processes. In the event of a fault in one processor the processes on that processor are transferred to spare processors and the hardware control process is transferred to the other processor of the pair. This arrangement makes more effective use of standby processing capacity.
