Abstract: A system and method of granting and removing a user's security access to applications on a computer using proximity of authorized RFID tags is disclosed. A user having an authorized RFID tag that is located near the computer will be granted access to pre-authorized applications.

Abstract: A system, method and computer product for allowing a processing device to generate search engine results to locate personalized product substitutions, filter the search results based on product characteristics and customer and retailer preferences, and provide personalized substitution recommendations to online grocery shoppers.

Abstract: The disclosed embodiments help the user of an electronic device with a touch screen to quickly and accurately select an actionable component on the touch screen before launching an application and reduce errors that can occur by inadvertently touching the wrong component. This problem is solved by providing a way to place the focus on a component (e.g., soft keyboard key) of the user interface before launching the associated application. A relative distance algorithm may be used to determine the closest actionable component to the touch point. Focus is placed on that component by highlighting, speech, audio indicator or some other means, clearly indicating to the user which icon has been selected.

Abstract: A pressure plug is disclosed and includes a circular and threaded plate, a flexible sealing collar, a pressure plate, and a T handle. The circular threaded pate receives the bottom edge of the flexible sealing collar in a stepped upward surface, and the pressure plate is placed on top of the sealing collar. The threaded plate has a shaft extended upward from its center and towards a hole in the top pressure plate having an angled surface on its outer bottom face. The T handle is threaded onto the threaded shaft, and as the T handle is tightened the two plates are pulled toward each other. This forces the upper edge of the sealing collar outwardly against the inside diameter of the pipe, thereby creating a seal. By sealing both ends of the pipe, then the heated pipe can be re-shaped, while the contained pressure prevents collapsing or kinking of the pipe.

Abstract: Radiopaque polymer compositions and methods for making the compositions are provided. These radiopaque polymer compositions include shape memory polymer compositions comprising a crosslinked polymer network, the network comprising a first repeating unit derived from a monofunctional iodinated monomer and a second repeating unit derived from a multifunctional non-iodinated monomer wherein neither of the two monomers is fluorinated. Devices formed from radiopaque polymer compositions are also provided.

Abstract: An electronic equipment cabinet is provided. The cabinet includes a plurality of sidewalls and a plurality of shelves. The sidewalls include a pair of opposing sidewalls. Each of the opposing sidewalls includes a plurality of shelf mounting points. The shelves are configured to be received at the shelf mounting points such that the shelves are configurable to accommodate components.

Abstract: A variable ratio transmission having an input (14) and an output (21) and being of the epicyclic type involving a sun element (17, 16)), a ring element (21) and a planet carrier element (22) in each of at least first (11) and second (12) unequal co-axial epicyclic assemblies, a second rotating element (22) of the first assembly (11) and a second rotating element (22) of the second assembly (12) being constrained to rotate at a common angular velocity, and control means (25) for progessively changing the gear ratio applied to a load connected to the first rotating element (21) of the first assembly (11), characterised in that the first rotating elements (21) are unequal pairs of the same mechanical elements of the respective assemblies (11, 12) and in conjunction with respective second rotating elements (22) each represents different respective fixed gear ratios relative to the input (14) and the output (21) of the transmission, the second rotating elements (22) are unequal pairs of the same mechanical element

Abstract: The invention permits network management services, utilized by a user via a software based console, used on any network connected device, viewed as a web page via the internet. Dynamic updating of the devices available to the console is performed by a Multicast Discovery Protocol. Multicast Remote Procedure Calls permit simultaneous command processing among an authorized target group of devices. A Multicast File Transfer Protocol permits time and bandwidth efficient one to many file transfers via a data stream at a pre-specified address which many clients simultaneously monitor. Hand shaking for the transfer is rotated among the clients so that they may each recover any lost data frames. Use of client registries for storing network data allows clients to be automatically configured upon connection to the network. Virtual monitoring and control over the clients may be exercised from the console by executing remote procedure calls.

Abstract: A system for providing telephone number portability within a structurally distributed telephone system by providing an address capture database (ACDB) for local exchange carriers (LECs) wherein a new number (NN) is stored in the ACDB if the NN is a physical address served by a LEC and the NN corresponds to a dialled directory number (DN) ported into or located within the LEC.
