The invention includes an emergency services network comprising a plurality of resources, a plurality of emergency services, and a Service / Name Resolution (SNR) system connected to a transport network. In operation, one of the resources receives a retrieval key for an emergency event from a conforming emergency system. The resource transmits the retrieval key to the transport network. The SNR system receives the retrieval key over the transport network and identifies at least one of the emergency services corresponding with the retrieval key. The SNR system initiates the transfer of the retrieval key to the identified emergency services. The identified emergency services then perform services corresponding with the retrieval key.

The invention generally provides an antivirus network system and method having a virtual scanning processor with plug-in functionalities. A preferred embodiment of the system according to the invention primarily comprises an antivirus scanning module operable with an operating system (OS), an antivirus database comprising a plurality of computer virus signatures, a library of external antivirus instructions wherein an antivirus system external to the network system is operable to update the external instructions, a virtual scanning processor further comprising a processor emulator operable to execute a plurality of internal antivirus instructions in detecting computer viruses based on the virus signatures, and a plug-in module connected to the processor emulator and the library and receiving the external instructions from the library, wherein the processor emulator is operable to execute the external instructions. The virtual scanning processor according to the invention is advantageously hardware-independent, i.e., is operable transparently to the hardware of a computer or network system. Moreover, the virtual scanning processor according to the invention is advantageously cross-platform, i.e., is operable transparently to, and regardless of the type of, the operating system (OS) it is operating in conjunction with.

Systems and methods for distributed energy services management are disclosed. A particular embodiment includes: receiving an input command via a network interface at a site gateway, the input command including information for controlling one or more physical devices at a site; converting, by use of a data processor, the input command to a virtualized command in a common command format; executing, by use of the data processor, one or more executor modules to cause execution of one or more corresponding virtual devices associated with the virtualized command; and using the executed one or more virtual devices to control the corresponding one or more physical devices at the site.

System and computer implemented method for evaluating the quality and accuracy of a human translation from a source language to a target language by a group of professional translation reviewers communicating in real-time. The system and method comprise a system computer with a database of profiles and credentials of reviewers; and the ability to communicate with groups of selected reviewers via a computer network. The computer system assigns evaluations and collects ratings returned by reviewers, and calculates a consensus rating for the group, while omitting statistical outliers. The system will also calculate a score for the reviewer as compared to the group, and use the score in selecting reviewers for future evaluations.
