Patent number: 9838403Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for processing account registration by identifying account candidates attempting to open an account as abusive. That is, the present disclosure discusses identifying, and challenging and marking abusive account registration. The present disclosure takes into account users' behaviors on a network and the impact to the cost and/or revenue of the network. The present disclosure is proactive as it allows for actions to be taken at the earliest possible time in the registration process before an account is created. This prevents abusive activity from taking place within the network and effecting services and privileges available to legitimate users. Additionally, the effects of the disclosed systems and methods minimize the negative impacts of abusive activity on normal user accounts.Type: GrantFiled: August 4, 2014Date of Patent: December 5, 2017Assignee: EXCALIBUR IP, LLCInventors: Lei Zheng, Phil Y. Wang, Shyam Mittur, Prashant Vyas, Savitha Perumal

Patent number: 8713295Abstract: A Cost-Reduced Enterprise Server (CRES) system includes a flexible resource-efficient server having a plurality of Processor Memory Boards (PMBs) coupled to an Input/Output Module (IOM). The IOM provides all networking and storage interfaces for the server. The IOM is implemented as a field-replaceable pluggable module, and thus all Input/Output (I/O) capabilities or resources of a CRES system may be upgraded via replacement of the IOM. Each PMB is dividable into a pair of Symmetric MultiProcessor (SMP) complexes, and each complex is coupled to a respective portion of the I/O resources provided by the IOM. Each portion of the IOM provides a pair of I/O daughter-module connectors compatible with standard I/O interfaces, such as Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI)-X and PCI-Express. One or more CRES systems may be coupled to one or more Enterprise Server (ES) systems to form a multi-chassis server managed collectively as one or more provisioned servers.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2007Date of Patent: April 29, 2014Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Daniel H. Bax, William Jackson Bibb, Jr., Russell M. Clapp, Tom Gourley, Geoffrey H. Hanson, Allen Hirashiki, Thomas Dean Lovett, Sharad Mehrotra, Shyam Mittur, Nakul Pratap Saraiya

Patent number: 8443066Abstract: A networked computing system is taught that may be operated as one or more provisioned servers, each of the provisioned servers including capabilities as identified by a corresponding set of specifications and attributes, according to various embodiments. Typically the specifications (or constraints) and attributes are specified with a Server Configuration File. The networked computing system may be provisioned into any combination and number of servers according to needed processing and I/O capabilities. Each of these servers may include distinct compute, storage, and networking performance. Provisioned servers may be managed similar to conventional servers, including operations such as boot and shutting down.Type: GrantFiled: July 7, 2011Date of Patent: May 14, 2013Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Nakul Pratap Saraiya, Curtis M. Collins, Yuri Finkelstein, Thomas Dean Lovett, Shyam Mittur, Cosmos Nicolaou, Shreyas B. Shah, Fabio Onofrio Ingrao

Typically the specifications (or constraints) and attributes are specified with a Server Configuration File. An Enterprise Server system may be provisioned into any combination and number of servers according to needed processing and I/O capabilities. Each of these servers may include distinct compute, storage, and networking performance. Provisioned servers may be managed similar to conventional servers, including operations such as boot and shutting down.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 2010Date of Patent: July 12, 2011Assignee: Habanero Holdings, Inc.Inventors: Nakul Pratap Saraiya, Curtis M.
