  • Patent number: 8832576
    Abstract: Facilitating display of, and interaction with, secure user-centric information via a user platform operated by a user. A user identity is transmitted to an external computing device hosting an identity management server to authenticate the user. After authenticating, a desktop channel grid framework is displayed on the user platform. The channel grid framework includes multiple channels having respective contents represented as multiple user-selectable items, through which respective portions of the secure user-centric information are presented. At least some of the secure user-centric information in at least one channel is based on the user identity, and in displaying the at least one channel as a selectable item, the at least one channel is authenticated by the identity management server.

  • Patent number: 8819726
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for providing advertising information on a second user viewing device relating to a media program viewed on a first user viewing device. Upon determining that the media program is being presented via the first user viewing device, an ad programming signal is transmitted to the second user viewing device so as to present on the second user viewing device at least one first advertisement relating to content of the media program.

  • Patent number: 8751948
    Abstract: Display of and access to secure user-centric information via the construct of a channel grid framework serving as a desktop on a user device. Multiple authorized channels through which the user receives and/or interacts with respective portions of the secure user-centric information are implemented based on information access rights and/or security protocols respectively associated with the channels. Channel information is monitored to determine one or more events, conditions, logical workflows, discrete information values or signal data, based on one or more threshold conditions or parameters relating to the channel information. Actionable and/or non-actionable alerts may be generated on one or more authenticated user devices and/or other devices. Information relating to determination of one or more events, conditions, logical workflows, discrete information values or signal data may be transmitted to various devices and/or stored for archival purposes.

  • Patent number: 8595641
    Abstract: Facilitating display of, and interaction with, secure user-centric information via a user platform operated by a user. A desktop is displayed on a display device of the user platform as a channel grid framework that includes a plurality of user-selectable items representing a corresponding plurality of authorized channels through which the user receives and/or interacts with respective portions of the secure user-centric information. The plurality of user-selectable items included in the channel grid framework is based at least in part on information access rights and/or security protocols respectively associated with the corresponding plurality of channels, the user, and the user platform.

  • Patent number: 8578285
    Abstract: Providing secure user-centric information via one or more user platforms operated by one or more users. Multiple channels are configured and implemented, through which information relevant to a given user is presented for user interaction via one or more user platforms associated with the user. A user profile is established identifying user preferences and one or more platform identities. The user profile is managed to grant the user access to specific ones of the multiple channels. In one example, user(s) and user platform(s) are authenticated to receive respective portions of the secure user-centric information based on user identities and platform identities. If authenticated, channel information relating to one or more of the multiple channels is transmitted to one or more users/user platforms, based on information access rights and/or security protocols respectively associated with the corresponding channels, the user(s), and the user platform(s).

  • Patent number: 8499250
    Abstract: A system and method for interacting with multiple information forms across multiple types of computing devices and platforms is provided. A computer-readable storage media for interacting with multiple information forms across computing devices is also provided and includes computer-readable instructions to cause one or more computer processors to execute operations including authenticating a user; establishing a channel grid framework for the user on a first platform, the channel grid framework providing access to a first computer application displayed on a display device as a channel; deploying the channel from the channel grid framework on the first platform to a second platform in response to a user selecting the channel from the channel grid framework on the first platform and performing a copy operation of the channel to the second platform; and establishing a run time application of the first computer application on the second platform.

  • Publication number: 20070134249
    Abstract: The present invention provides combination immunotherapy for Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. In one embodiment, the combination immunotherapy first provides for the administration of a monoclonal antibody directed to a non-idotypic portion of a lymphoma cell surface immunoglobulin (e.g. a framework region of a variable region). The combination immunotherapy next provides for the administration of an immunogenic composition comprising at least a portion of the same lymphoma cell surface immunoglobulin, whether an idiotypic portion or non-idiotypic portion.

  • Publication number: 20030059813
    Abstract: The invention provides methods, compositions and systems for detecting multiple single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a population of target polynucleotides in parallel in a sandwich assay employing SNP probes, capture polynucleotides and, optionally, auxiliary polynucleotides. The relative affinities of the SNP probes for the corresponding SNP regions can be increased with reagents which normalize the melting temperatures of the probes and/or by positionally facilitating interactions between the SNP probe, the SNP region, the capture polynucleotide and/or the auxiliary polynucleotides, such as through a minor groove binder. The probes may comprise a degenerate set of all possible same-sized polynucleotides and the capture polynucleotides are generally immobilized and arrayed at corresponding discrete elements in high density.
