    摘要： The generation of secure compact indicia without the need for cryptographically generated identifiers such as digital signatures in the indicia. A unique serial number is assigned to each indicium, the serial number is incorporated into the indicium, and additional information is stored. This additional information includes what is referred to as 'other required information,' which is information specified to be sufficient to verify the indicium, and is ultimately stored at a different location (102) from the location (104), where the indicium request initiated. Verification occurs by comparing the required indicium content (serial number and other required information) with the previously stored version of the required indicium content.

    摘要： Techniques for dispensing postage using a communication network such as the Internet. A postage vendor system (PVS) is assigned a single postal license number by a postal authority, such as the USPS, and is used by the PVS to cater to postage requests from a plurality of unrelated users who may be at different geographical addresses. The PVS may comprise a plurality of server systems and may receive requests to purchase stamps from one or more user systems. In response to the postage purchase requests, the PVS may generate information for printing indicia corresponding to the stamp requests based upon the single postal license number associated with the PVS. The PVS may then communicate the information for printing the indicia to the one or more user systems. The user systems may print the indicia based upon the information for printing the indicia received from the PVS.

    摘要： A method for maintaining consistency between objects in a computer system by defining relationship patterns. A relationship pattern is a collection of entities having relationships with a common entity called an active entity. A semantic entity is associated with the active entity describing the actions to be performed for updating one or more entities of the relationship pattern in response to modification, copying, or deletion of one or more entities participating in the relationship pattern.

    摘要： A technique for printing postage and other value indicia at a user location. A user at a user computer acquires secure postage labels having one or more security features such as serrated edges, a microprint strip, a color fiber, taggants, a watermark, a hologram, or a fluorescent stripe. The labels have associated serial numbers, possibly at the sheet or individual label level. The user establishes communication with a postage vendor system (PVS), which may include one or more servers, and requests one or more indicia. The user also provides one or more serial numbers for the label(s) or label sheet(s) on which the one or more indicia are to be printed. The PVS determines if the one or more serial numbers are valid, and if so, generates information for printing the one or more indicia and then sends the information to the user computer. The information preferably includes a digital signature for each indicium, which may incorporate the serial number. The user computer receives the information and prints the one or more indicia on one or more postage labels.

    摘要： Techniques for dispensing postage from a kiosk (104) using a communications network (108). A method for obtaining a postage stamp at a kiosk (104), where the kiosk (104) includes a computer system (300) and a printer (310), includes a user inputting a request for the postage stamp into the kiosk (104). The request is sent to a server (102) via a communications network (108). The kiosk then receives a markup language response back from the server (102), and processes the markup language response to obtain an indicium. The printer (31) prints the indicium on a label (400), where the label (400) includes one or more security features, thereby providing the postage stamp.
