The present invention provides a method and apparatus of using light-emitting elements for illumination as well as communication of data, wherein potential flicker due to sub-fusion frequency data correlations can be reduced compared to prior art techniques, while reducing redundancy in the data transmission. The intensity of the illumination from the light-emitting elements is controlled by a dimming signal such as a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal or a pulse code modulation (PCM) signal, for example. An amplitude-modulated data signal is then superimposed on the dimming signal for communication of data. The dimming signal thus acts as a carrier signal for the data signal. A sensing means is then used to receive the data signal by detecting all or part of the illumination from the light-emitting elements. The data signal can subsequently be extracted from the detected illumination.

An RF object locating system and method that uses or includes a set of N (N>2) receivers (monitoring stations) located at fixed positions in and / or about a region to be monitored, one or more reference transmitters that transmit a timing reference, a location processor that determines object location based on time-of-arrival measurements, and at least one object having an untethered tag transmitter that transmits RF pulses, which may additionally include object ID or other information. Free-running counters in the monitoring stations, whose phase offsets are determined relative to a reference transmitter, are frequency-locked with a centralized reference clock. Time-of-arrival measurements made at the monitoring stations may be stored and held in a local memory until polled by the location processor. The invention permits rapid acquisition of tag transmissions thereby enabling the monitoring of large numbers of objects, and also provides a unique approach to data correlation in severe multipath environments.

Broadly speaking, the present invention fills the need of selecting correlated advertisements for displaying to users by utilizing the advertisement-viewing data collected on users of a web site. The advertisement-viewing (ad-viewing) data of users of a web site can be correlated to extract similarities and patterns of ads being viewed by users of the web site. The correlated ad-viewing data of all users of the web site, along with URLs (Uniform Resource Locators) of ads viewed by a particular user, can be used to select advertisements that are likely to be interests to the particular user. Ad-viewing data correlation allows the web site to select ads to display to users in real-time based on users' latest ad-viewing data. Since selection of ads to display is based on mathematical calculation using a correlation table of ad-viewing that has been generated ahead of time, the method can be scaled to meet demands of a large amount of users, such as millions. In addition to ad-viewing correlation table and users' latest ad-viewing data, advertisement pool of advertisements paid by advertisers is also taken into consideration during the ad-selection process.

Proper user-to-data associations are maintained in shared spaces created in a peer-to-peer collaborative system by means of a simplified and minimal user interface that permits users to easily authenticate other members of a shared space. In particular, support is provided for automatically building authenticated relationships even if users do not take the time to authenticate other users. When a user enters a shared space and views the contacts in that space, the display names of each contact are accompanied by distinctive icons that identify that authentication status of that contact. A mechanism is provided for resolving conflicts between contacts with the same display names to prevent confusion and contact “spoofing.” Security policies can be established to provide a uniform approach to authentication. These policies can be set by a user or, alternatively, the policies can be set by an administrator.

This document describes a user interface mechanism to relate information from multiple heterogeneous data sources. Data displayed in different regions on a user interface can be related by selection of an element in one region and pinning it. The pinned element acts as a filter for the information in the other regions on the user interface. Successive pinning of elements in other regions allows further filtering of the information in unpinned regions using the context of previously pinned elements.

Embodiments of the present disclosure include systems and methods for providing query service of secured contents. A data collection service collects data and security context associated with the data from a data source and stores the data with the security attributes in a datastore, where the security attributes are derived from the security context and used to determine access to the data so that access to the data is consistent with the security context. Upon receiving a query and a user context of a requester making the query of the datastore, a set of query results is obtained. Based on the user context and security attributes, it is determined whether the requestor has a proper right to access the query results. If the requestor has a proper right to access the query results, access to the query results is granted.

A method and a Radio Signature Positioning Determining Entity (RS-PDE) are provided for maintaining the reliability of a location database of the RS-PDE. A Data Transfer Scheduler (DTS) of the RS-PDE receives new location data comprising signal strength measurements records, and the new location data is correlated by a Data Correlation Device (DCD) with existing location data of the location database. The correlated location data is uploaded by a Data Uploader (DU) into the location database. A Data Performance Monitor (DPM) detects if the RS-PDE provides better positioning results using that correlated data, and if so, the RS-PDE then uses the correlated data for mobile station positioning. The location data update cycle may be triggered by a configurable timer defining an update periodicity, or by a detection of insufficient positioning accuracy of the RS-PDE using the existing location data.
