A method for routing an object in a transportation network is provided. The method includes obtaining at a first point a first address and a first functional property code associated with an object to be routed. The method also includes storing at a data base a second functional property code, a second address, and a third address associated with a second point. The method further includes sending the first address and the first functional property code from the first point to the data base and determining at the data base if the first address is compatible with the second address. The method additional includes determining at the data base if the first functional property code is compatible with the second functional property code if the first address is compatible with the associated second address and sending the third address to the first point if the first functional property code is compatible with the second functional property code.

A method for securely sharing electronic documents on a document storage system. The method includes receiving an electronic document from a creating user, generating an encryption key unique to the electronic document, encrypting the electronic document using the encryption key to create an encrypted electronic document, and communicating the encrypted electronic document to a document repository for storage / The method also includes identifying a resource locator for uniquely identifying the storage location of the encrypted electronic document and communicating the encryption key and the resource locator to the creating user. The method also includes receiving the encryption key and the resource locator from a requesting user, retrieving the encrypted electronic document from the document repository using the resource locator, decrypting the encrypted electronic document using the encryption key, and communicating the decrypted electronic document to the requesting user.

In accordance with a particular embodiment of the present invention, an apparatus is offered that includes a configurable feedback low noise amplifier (LNA) connected to a common source connected input transistor to realize a specific value of an input impedance, the input impedance being controlled by transconductance, the overall gain being defined by a global current feedback network. In more specific embodiments, the LNA is used to provide a wide frequency band and a defined input impedance. In other embodiments, the LNA achieves a low noise parameter and low output distortion. Also, the LNA can use a ladder network of grounded switches and floating resistors in order to avoid floating switches in a feedback path. The LNA can increase parametric yield. The LNA can be used to control noise, gain, distortion, and input impedance independently.
