Abstract: Systems and methods for a centralized payment management system are described. The system aids in management of vendor-client relationships. In one aspect, the system receives payment entries relating to a combination of vendors and clients. The system determines from the payment entries a payment entry that includes a conflict. The system retrieves from a memory an alert message associated with the payment entry including the conflict. The system generates a display screen including the payment entry and the retrieved alert message. In some embodiments, the system determines from the payment entries a payment entry that includes a conflict by determining from the payment entries a payment entry that includes an overdue payment issue, a client issue, or vendor issue, generating an alert message for the determined payment entry based on the overdue payment issue, the client issue, or the vendor issue, and storing the alert message in the memory.

Abstract: The Internet is becoming an essential part of our lives. This trend is even stronger with the rise of cell phones having Internet access that almost the entire population carries with them at all times. Security is a huge problem on the Internet, however, and new authentication methods are needed specifically for cell phones. Presented here is a method of identifying a mobile electronic device by its configuration settings, potentially including contact list information. This invention, in particular, fills a crucial need to secure access to the Internet from mobile phones.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of either verifying or rejecting the authenticity of a work submitted through use of a computer. This method involves examining the behavioral and mood biometric characteristics of the person(s) using the computer on which the work was created, while the work was being created. In a specific embodiment, this can be used to detect outsourcing and plagiarism in an online education class.
