    Abstract: A system for performing document services using mobile computing devices provides users of the system with document references that can be transmitted over integrated wireless and wire-based communication services. The system includes workstations, files servers, printers and other devices coupled to a wire-based network. Mobile computing devices are coupled to the wire-based network through either IR (infrared) or RF (radio) transceiver gateways. Each mobile computing device appears to hold a user's personal collection of documents by being programmed to receive, transmit, and store document tokens. A user interface at the mobile computing devices provide users with means for fast and easy access to document services that are proximate to where they are physically located. Through the user interface, a user queries a document device proximate to their physical location. Responsive to the query, a hierarchical list of available services is displayed at the user interface. The hierarchical list provides the user with immediate access to the queried document device, as well as links to other document devices that are ordered in a location and class specific hierarchy.

    Abstract: A geographically based lottery game is described where prizes are allocated based on the geographic location or residence of the lottery player. The lottery terminal determines the player's residence and sets parameters for the lottery ticket, such as the count of symbols to be picked and the range of the symbols. Prizes are then awarded within the geographic area.

    Abstract: Every County Wins is a lottery draw game that involved counties within a particular state within the United States. The percentage of people within that county will determine how many people and how much the prize will be.A person will go to a lottery dealer within. their county and purchase a quick draw Every County Wins Ticket. That ticket will consist of their ticket number and number or letters to identify their county.On the designated draw date a computer generated program will pick a ticket that has been sold in that county. The person with that ticket will be the winner. There will be a draw for every county within the state. People living in larger counties will have more winners. The computer program may pick 2 or 3 winners pending on the population of people in that county.
