Abstract: A system and method for data communication connecting on-line networks with on-line and off-line computers. The present system provides for broadcast of up to the minute notification centric information thereby providing an instant call to action for users who are provided with the ability to instantaneously retrieve further detailed information. The notification centric portions of information is wirelessly broadcast to wireless receiving devices which are attached to computing devices. Upon receipt of the information at the personal computer, the user is notified through different multimedia alerts that there is an incoming message. Wirelessly broadcasted URL's, associated with the data, are embedded in data packets and provide an automated wired or wireless connection back to the information source for obtaining detailed data.

Abstract: Provided are a method, system, and program for rendering information on network infrastructure. A selection of customer sites is received and a database is queried to determine geographical locations of the selected network sites. A graphical user interface is rendered including representations of the selected customer sites in a map at the geographical location of the selected sites in the map. Selection is received of at least one network service provider (NSP). The database is queried to determine network infrastructure of the selected NSP and geographical locations of the determined network infrastructure. Representations are rendered of the determined network infrastructure in a map at the determined geographical locations of the determined network infrastructure to render a visualization of the geographical locations of the selected customer sites and network infrastructure of the selected at least one NSP in the map.

Abstract: Provided is a technique for evaluating risk associated with underwriting an insurance policy (FIG. 1). At least one location to be covered under the insurance policy is received (FIG. 3, block 320). Risk associated with the location is automatically assessed (FIG. 3, block 338). It is determined whether to underwrite the location based on the assessed risk (FIG. 3, block 340). Also provided is a technique for proximity analysis (FIG. 54). Selection of a proximity center is received (FIG. 55). A function is executed with the proximity center to determine target data items that fall within a proximity area around the proximity center. The target data items are spatially represented.
