Abstract: A method for online authentication includes receiving membership authenticating information specific to members of a particular affiliation from the members and from one or more remote databases. The information is aggregated and stored in an aggregate database. An individual is authenticated, via a widget at least one of integrated into, and accessible by, at least one of a mobile application and a website of a provider of at least one of a particular program and a particular service, as a member of the particular affiliation based on a comparison of authenticating indicia provided online by the individual and the information stored in at least one of the aggregate database and the remote databases. Digital credentials are provided to the individual for access to the at least one of the particular program and the particular service when the individual is authenticated. The credentials include a unique identifier, a login and password.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for synchronizing educational multimedia content objects between a server system and a plurality of remote mobile communication devices over a network. An educational multimedia repository stores the educational multimedia content objects and makes the educational multimedia content objects accessible to software components operating within the educational multimedia system. The system downloads to one of the remote communication devices one or more of the educational multimedia content objects from the repository while the one of the remote communication devices has a data connection with the computer server system.

Abstract: Methods and systems are herein disclosed for write operation retry using the data stored and retained in an internal buffer within the non-volatile memory device. By using the data stored in the internal buffer, the systems and method of the present invention eliminate the need to include a dedicated retry buffer at the system level. Thereby, reducing the system cost, minimizing space consumption on a board within the system and, in some instance, limiting the latency attributed to a retry that relies on retrying the write based on re-transferring of the data contents to the internal non-volatile memory buffer.

Abstract: Systems and/or methods that provide for frequency distributed flash memory allocation are disclosed. The systems and methods determine the rate at which a system address is being written and the current erase cycle state of each data block in the non-volatile memory device and assigns a physical address to the write operation based on the determined system address rate and the current erase state of each data block in the non-volatile system. In this regard, system addresses that are assigned more frequently are assigned physical page addresses from data blocks which have a low erase cycle state (i.e., greater cycle endurance remaining) and system addresses that assigned less frequently are assigned physical page addresses from data blocks which have a high erase cycle state (i.e., lesser cycle endurance remaining). The result is a more robust non-volatile device having increased erase/initialization cycle endurance, which adds to the overall reliability of the device over time.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, article of manufacture, and system, the method including, in some embodiments, determining an impedance of a power distribution network of a load for a range of frequencies, and adjusting a functionality of the load based on a relationship between the impedance of the power distribution network for the range of frequencies and the functionality of the load.

Abstract: Systems and/or methods are presented that provide for recording transactions that occur during a write process for the purpose of recovering the transactions in the event of a power loss. In an aspect a system implements an organization that reflects a cache architecture that is organized according to the cache way and set index of each transaction In this regard, the cache way and set index cache architecture provides for a post-power loss search operation that is limited to identifying duplicate locations within the cache-line and keeping only the most recent modification. Thus the system provides pre-organization in terms of self-aggregation by cache way and set index recording that facilitates cache-line eviction processing in the event that the cache is determined to be full.

Abstract: An acceleration mechanism for boot-up processing in a computing system is provided. The acceleration mechanism relies on recording most, if not all, of the read transactions, associated with requests and retrievals made during a boot-up and, in some aspects most, if not all, of the write transactions, associated with requests and stores made during a shutdown process. Prior to executing the boot-up process, data associated with the transactions is pre-fetched based on the recorded information and used to make the requests or information retrievals during the ensuing boot-up process. Additionally, since the mechanism of the present innovation provides for continual recording and the transaction data, the acceleration of the boot-up process can be adaptive even if hardware additions/changes or any other changes that affect the boot-up or shutdown process occur.

Abstract: Systems and/or methods are presented that provide for recording transactions that occur during a write process in an organized, self-aggregated manner for the purpose of recovering the transactions in the event of a power loss. By implementing an organization that reflects the cache architecture that is organized according to the cache way and set index of each transaction, the amount of time and effort required to recover the modified data from a sudden loss of power event is minimized. In this regard, the cache way and set index cache architecture provides for a post-power loss search operation that is limited to identifying duplicate locations within the cache-line and keeping only the most recent modification. By providing for such pre-organization in terms of self-aggregation by cache way and set index recording, the overall search process is greatly reduced and flexibility can be implemented in cache-line eviction processing in the event that the cache is determined to be full.
