Abstract: A barrier device forms an inflatable barrier that restricts an object from passing through an opening at the periphery of a support structure, such that a substantial portion of the opening is blocked. The support structure may include furniture. A bladder is inflated with a gas to conform to the size of the opening. The bladder has a first region and a second region that fold over each other to conform to the size of the opening for providing a more substantial barrier. A first end and a second end have an inlet for enabling passage of the gas to and from an interior region of the bladder. In this manner, the size of the bladder can be adjusted. A handle on either end facilities mobility of the device.

Abstract: The Rotating Car Wheel Display allows perspective customers interested in purchasing a car rim or wheel to see the rim or wheel in motion as it would be on the car itself. It operates in a clockwise and counterclockwise motion for spinning wheels and traditional rims and wheels. It is a portable device that can be displayed easily and inexpensively by any wheel and tire shop for more curb appeal.

Abstract: Monitoring an electronic check processing status of an image cash letter (“ICL”) and items in the ICL includes processing each ICL item by performing at least one electronic check processing event in connection with the item. For each electronic check processing event and for each item, a record comprising information related to a status of the electronic check processing event is created. Each record is associated with the corresponding item and the ICL. A status of each item can be determined based on the information stored in the records corresponding to that item. A status of the ICL can be determined based on the status of the items from the ICL.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing encryption and decryption of data transmitted on a computer implemented network, preferably user authentication identifier data, such as a password, at the point of entry into the user's computer. The systems and methods enable an end user to mentally select a marker from one of the randomly arranged elements on a first portion of a graphical image. A second portion of the graphical image includes an arrangement of possible elements of any individual authentication identifier sequence, and is positioned adjacent to the first portion. The systems and methods prompt a user to enter each element of the identifier by moving the selected marker and the first portion as necessary to substantially align the selected marker with a chosen element of the authentication identifier appearing on the outer portion. According to one embodiment, the image portions are concentric wheels. According to another embodiment, the image portions are arranged in adjacent rows.

Abstract: Balancing image cash letters (“ICLs”) and ICL items during electronic check processing includes determining whether each item has been presented to a receiving institution for payment. A tracking module can track an incoming ICL/item's processing status using records comprising information regarding the ICL/item's status for electronic check processing events. The tracking module can present the ICL/item's processing status in one or more reports. The tracking module can balance an ICL by comparing an incoming ICL value amount with an outgoing ICL value amount. The incoming ICL value amount comprises the total value of the items in the incoming ICL. The outgoing ICL value amount comprises the total value of the items in the incoming ICL that have been presented to a receiving institution via one or more outgoing ICLs. If the amounts match, then the incoming ICL is balanced. If not, then the ICL is not balanced.

Abstract: Technology for sharing data among multiple virtual machines in a cluster of virtual machines is disclosed. Each virtual machine identifies “managed” objects of an instance of an application running at the virtual machine. The managed objects are objects for which state information is to be replicated at the other virtual machines in the cluster on which other instances of the application are running. Operations performed by an instance of one application which affect the state of managed objects are detected and distributed.

Abstract: A circuit includes a switching device for controlling a power signal to be applied to a heating device. A control circuit is configured for comparing a temperature signal, indicative of the temperature of the heating device, to a temperature setpoint to generate a gate pulse signal that controls the duration of the power signal to be applied to the heating device. The control circuit is further configured for comparing the duration of the power signal to be applied to the heating device to a minimum pulse duration and, if the duration of the power signal to be applied to the heating device is at least equal to the minimum pulse duration, providing the gate pulse signal to the switching device.

Abstract: Technology for sharing data among multiple virtual machines in a cluster of virtual machines is disclosed. Each virtual machine identifies “managed” objects of an instance of an application running at the virtual machine. Operations performed by an instance of one application which affect the state of managed objects are detected and distributed. Centralized lock management is provided where a cluster virtual machine requests a lock which affects managed object, and communicates a request to the central manager for the lock. A central manager determines whether the lock is available, and if it is, grants the lock to the virtual machine. The central manager grants the lock to the requesting virtual machine when no other virtual machine currently has the lock.

Abstract: The present invention provides systems and methods for authenticating access requests from user devices by presenting one of a plurality of graphical user interfaces selected depending on a perceived risk of fraud associated with the devices. User devices are identified with fingerprinting information, and their associated risks of fraud are determined from past experience with the device or with similar devices and from third party information. In preferred embodiments, different graphical user interfaces are presented based on both fraud risk and, in the case of a known user, usability. In preferred embodiments, this invention is implemented as a number of communicating modules that identify user devices, assess their risk of fraud, present selected user interfaces, and maintain databases of fraud experiences. This invention also includes systems providing these authentication services.

Abstract: Technology for sharing data among multiple virtual machines in a cluster of virtual machines is disclosed. Each virtual machine identifies “managed” objects of an instance of an application running at the virtual machine. Operations performed by an instance of one application which affect the state of managed objects are detected and distributed. The technology includes creating synthetic transactions at a virtual machine. The transactions share object data among the virtual machines in the cluster. The transactions are considered to be “synthetic” because they are synthesized based on boundaries introduced by the data sharing agent or an implementation of a virtual machine supporting managed objects in accordance with the description herein.
