  • Patent number: 7529813
    Abstract: A method for transferring a multimedia file from a user's mobile device to user equipment associated with another user is disclosed. The method includes sending an invitation from the user's mobile device to the user equipment to request a transfer of the multimedia file. The method also includes setting up a bearer data channel between the user's mobile device and the equipment to facilitate the transferring of the multimedia file, the transferring is configured to be accomplished using Message Sessions Relay Protocol (MRSP) or Real-Time Transfer Protocol (RTP). The method further includes transferring the multimedia file using the MSRP or RTP and the bearer data channel.

  • Publication number: 20080263214
    Abstract: A computer system includes a computer processor and logic instructions for rapid integration of data storage subsystems. An adapter factory is instantiated in response to a request from a client computer. The adapter factory is configured to provide a generic persistent data storage (Pds) adapter interface to the client computer. The Pds adapter interface interfaces to a specific adapter. The Pds adapter interface is configured to invoke corresponding data source operations in the specific adapter. A generic Pds data source interface is configured between the specific adapter and a specific data source.

  • Patent number: 7212817
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices for a database are provided. One database embodiment includes a set of executable instructions operable on the database. One or more database partitions are provided, each having a defined key range. The set of executable instructions is operable to reverse octets in variable length keys. A last digit in an odd-length key value, plus a pad, is placed in a dedicated octet to partition the variable length keys in the one or more database partitions.

  • Publication number: 20040242849
    Abstract: A method of separation of an antibody from a mixture of the antibody and at least one contaminant, the method comprising: a) placing the antibody and contaminant mixture in a first solvent stream, the first solvent stream being separated from a second solvent stream by an electrophoretic membrane; b) selecting the pH for the first solvent stream such that contaminants with an isoelectric point (pI) lower than the antibody to be separated will be charged; c) applying an electric potential between the two solvent streams causing movement of at least some of the contaminants through the membrane into the second solvent stream while the antibody is substantially retained in the first solvent stream, or if entering the membrane, being substantially prevented from entering the second solvent stream; d) optionally, periodically stopping and reversing the electric potential to cause movement of any antibody having entered the membrane to move back into the first solvent stream, wherein substantially not causing any c

  • Publication number: 20040220941
    Abstract: Methods, devices, architectures and data structures are provided for sorting variable length keys in a database. An embodiment includes a variable length key having a series of octets. Each octet includes a pair of hexadecimal values, e.g. representing digits. At least one octet includes a sort key having a value representing a digit length for a received variable length key minus a minimum digit length of an object key.
