Just-in-time analytics on large file systems and hidden databases

A just-in-time sampling-based system can, after consuming a small number of disk accesses or queries, produce extremely accurate answers for a broad class of aggregate and top-k queries over a file system or database without the requirement of prior knowledge. The system is efficient, accurate, and scalable. The system performs aggregate estimations of a hidden database through its web interface by employing techniques that use a small number of queries to produce unbiased estimates with small variance. It conducts domain discovery over a hidden database through its web interface by employing techniques which provide effective guarantees on the effectiveness of domain discovery. Systems and methods enhance forms used by mobile devices to access hidden databases. It employs data analytics to improve the usage of form fields, including providing context-sensitive auto-completion suggestions, highlighting selections in drop-down boxes and eliminating suggestions in drop-down boxes.

Identity selector for use with a user-portable device and method of use in a user-centric identity management system

An identity selector manages the identity requirements of an online interaction between a user and a service provider environment. The identity selector is adapted for interoperable use with a user-portable computing device. The user device enables a user to carry identification information and to generate security tokens for use in authenticating the user to a service provider. The identity selector includes an agent module that facilitates communication with the user device. The identity selector imports the user identities from the user device and determines which user identities satisfy a security policy of a relying party. After the user selects one of the eligible user identities, the identity selector generates a token request based on the selected identity and forwards it to the user device, which in response issues a security token. The security token is returned to the identity selector and used to facilitate the authentication process.

Retail transactions involving digital content in a digital rights management (DRM) system

A retailer facilitates issuance of a digital license from a licensor to a customer for a corresponding piece of digital content. The retailer receives payment for the license from the customer, where the payment is to be shared with the licensor in a pre-determined manner. The retailer also receives customer-based information from the customer. The retailer then composes an actual license request including the obtained customer-based information, and including retailer-based information identifying the retailer to the licensor and acknowledging to the licensor that the retailer owes a portion of the received payment to the licensor. Thereafter, the retailer forwards the actual license request to the licensor. The licensor notes based on the retailer-based information in the actual license request that the retailer identified thereby owes the licensor at least a portion of the forwarded payment. If an individual sends a license request directly to the licensor and thus fails to forward payment for the license to a retailer, the actual license request as composed by the individual fails to include the retailer-based information. Accordingly, the licensor refuses to issue a license as requested based on the lack of retailer-based information.

Access right managing system, portable terminal, gateway and contents server

A gateway manages the right of a portable terminal to access data of various contents services stored in a contents server. When the gateway receives the first request for access from the portable terminal, it assigns a user ID and a password to the same and transmits them to the portable terminal. When another request for use added with the same ID and PW is received, the gateway generates access history information after authenticating the user and grants an access right during a predetermined effective period from the date of the first access. In response to an access during the effective period, contents data acquired from the contents server are transferred to the portable terminal. In the case of an access out of the effective period, the access is interrupted, and continuation of the access right is prompted by an access right continuation notice.

Multiple use water purification device

A water purification device that can be inserted into a canteen full of impure water that allows a user to drink purified water directly from the canteen, without the need of a pump. The canteen insert is a multistage purification device that has an inlet section at one end and a canteen insert flange mouthpiece at the other end. After the present purification device has been inserted in the canteen, the user tips the bottom of the canteen upward, holding the flange mouthpiece to their mouth and squeezes gently on the sides of the canteen. This forced gravity action pushes water sequentially through the multiple purification sections of the preferred embodiment and subsequently out of the flange mouthpiece for consumption by the user. The canteen flange mouthpiece can also be replaced by a flute straw mouthpiece that allows the user to withdraw water from the canteen via the straw. The same multiple water purification stages are also used in a straw and an inline purifier embodiment.
