  • Patent number: 11956154
    Abstract: Datalink frames or networking packets contain protocol information in the header and optionally in the trailer of a frame or a packet. We are proposing a method in which part of or all of the protocol information corresponding to a frame or a packet is transmitted separately in another datalink frame. The “Separately Transmitted Protocol Information” is referred to as STPI. The STPI contains enough protocol information to identify the next hop node or port. STPI can be used avoid network congestion and improve link efficiency. Preferably, there will be one datalink frame or network packet corresponding to each STPI, containing the data and the rest of the protocol information and this frame/packet is referred to as DFoNP. The creation of STPI and DFoNP is done by the originator of the frame or packet such as an operating system.

  • Publication number: 20070255627
    Abstract: An embodiment is directed to a computerized method in vehicle transport. A request regarding transport of a vehicle is received over a computer network. Electronic information regarding a pick-up location and electronic information regarding a drop-off location for transport of the vehicle are accessed, and based on the electronic information regarding a pick-up location and information regarding a drop-off location for transport of the vehicle quotation of cost for transfer of the vehicle is automatically generated. A quotation for cost for transport of the vehicle is transmitted electronically to the user, over a computer network. A request to transport the vehicle is received, and based on a request to transport the vehicle, an electronic request to a transporter to transport the vehicle is automatically initiated. Also described is an internet-based system, an automated system in vehicles sales, as well as other methods and systems.

  • Publication number: 20070250396
    Abstract: An embodiment of the invention is directed to a method for computer network-based sale of vehicles. An access group data structure is created. The access group data structure includes structure that defines association of web sites, users and vehicles associated with an access group. Whether vehicles are visible on respective web sites is controlled based on the access group, and access by the user is allowed to respective items in the access group based on whether a user is associated with the access group. Another embodiment includes providing an access group object, wherein the access group object includes properties that define association of web sites, users and vehicles associated with an access group. Another embodiment is directed to a computerized system for vehicle sale including a web server.

  • Publication number: 20070203922
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for schema mapping and the transformation of data. In accordance with one implementation, a computer-implemented method is provided that includes the steps of simultaneously displaying to a user, via a graphical user interface, layouts of the first and second documents, wherein the first and second documents have different data schemas and are instantiated with elements containing data values, and acquiring one or more associations from the user to map a first element of the first document to a second element of the second document. The method further includes the steps of indicating to the user a second association between elements in the first and second documents based on the association acquired from the user, and storing the association including the layout data corresponding to the first and second elements.
