Abstract: A multi-user collaboration system, and a method of providing the same are disclosed. The method involves creating a workspace to which a plurality of digital materials can be shared by one or more internal users; receiving, from an internal user of the one or more internal users, an external collaboration request to collaborate with an external user type; in response to receiving the external collaboration request: creating a sub-workspace in association with the workspace for the external user type; and assigning a sub-workspace user group to the sub-workspace; and displaying a set of feedback on the one or more digital materials to a user. The sub-workspace is accessible by an external user associated with the external user type to provide a sub-workspace feedback in respect of one or more digital materials of the plurality of digital materials shared to the sub-workspace.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a method and system for distributing funds associated with a game. The method receives a plurality of requests to enter the game and processes each request to issue a corresponding ticket in the game. Each ticket is associated with a donation to a selected charity and a pledge amount. The method determines a total pool of funds derived from the tickets and determines a winning ticket of the game from the plurality of tickets issued in response to the requests. The method then distributes the total pool of funds between a charity pool and a prize pool, dependent upon the donations and the pledge amount associated with the winning ticket.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a method, system, and computer program product for conducting a lottery in conjunction with a communications network. The method conducts a lottery tournament among a plurality of entries, wherein each entry is associated with ticketing information, including a gaming token. In particular, the method organises a tournament draw among the plurality of entries, wherein the tournament draw provides a schedule of knockout matches for the entries. The schedule includes a plurality of rounds of matches, each match being a contest between a plurality of the entries. For each round of matches, the method determines a winner for each match in the round, based on a predefined gaming algorithm and the gaming tokens. Each determined winner proceeds to a subsequent round of matches in the schedule, and the method identifies a winner of a final round match of the schedule as a winner of the lottery tournament.

Abstract: A method of detecting and classifying mental states, comprising the steps of: detecting bio-signals from one or more than one bio-signal detector; transforming the bio-signals into one or more than one different representations; detecting values of one or more than one property of the transformed bio-signal representations; and applying one or more than one mental state detection algorithm to the detected properties in order to classify whether the bio-signals indicate the presence of a predetermined response by a subject.
