Abstract: Various features described herein may allow an authorized user to provide a guest with access to a secured location through use of an encoded image containing steganographically encoded access information. The encoded access information may be recognizable by a security system, and the security system may grant access to the secured location when the encoded image is presented to the security system. The authorized user may request the generation of the encoded image on an authorized computing device, and the encoded image may be provided to the guest on a guest computing device. When a monitoring device associated with the security system captures the encoded access information, the security system may, for example, open a door at the secured location.

Abstract: Provided are methods and systems for controlling data such as content and/or application data transmitted to one or more user devices. One method can comprise receiving a request for first content and generating, in response to the request for the first content, a first transport stream comprising the first content and application data relating to a first application. At least a portion of the first transport stream is transmitted to a recipient device. An interruption in the transmission of the first transport stream is detected and a determination is made that only a first portion of the application data has been transmitted to the recipient device. A second transport stream including second content and a second portion of the application data is generated and transmitted.

Abstract: Disclosures related to waking a sleeping device while minimizing active components needed to receive a remote wakeup request. In one aspect, devices having an RF tuner, may be configured to detect a digital or an analog signal variation or change in RF signal characteristics. Further, the variation or change may be interpreted as a wakeup signal.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for to conduct transgenic and targeted mutagenesis screening of genomic DNA. This invention also provides a system for screening DNA for a designated genetic sequence. The system includes a computer having a processor, memory and web browser, wherein the computer receives instructions concerning the designated genetic sequence and other screening parameter selection from a remote user via a form of electronic communication, and an automatic screening device that analyzes samples of genomic DNA for the designated sequence.

Abstract: The invention involves high throughput methods for identifying properties of cells under a variety of cellular conditions. The high throughput methods have a variety of uses, including methods for identifying cellular modulators such as pharmacological agents or environmental conditions, methods for identifying a cellular phenotype and methods for identifying novel genes.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a method to improve detection or quantification of a genetic sequence in a genetic sample using a bipartite probe. A bipartite probe is made of a nucleic acid binding sequence capable of hybridizing a target genetic sequence and a binding probe sequence capable of hybridizing to a detectable amplification molecule through a nucleic acid sequence capable of hybridizing to the binding probe sequence of the bipartite probe. The amplification molecule 6 can be a dendrimer that includes a label in its core and/or on any of its arms. Moreover, a secondary signal generation molecule 11 may also be added to the mixture to further increase signal. Similarly, tertiary 20 and quaternary 30 etc. amplification molecules may successively be added to yield increase signal.
