    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention provide a strong passive ad-hoc radio-frequency identification (RFID) network (the “network). The network typically includes an RFID receiver and N quantity of RFID tags coupled to one another. For example, a network under the present invention can include an RFID reader; a first RFID tag in communication with the RFID reader; and a second RFID tag in communication with the first RFID tag. The first RFID tag and the second RFID tag will have passive capacitance to allow them to store energy and data. In this example, the first RFID tag can be enabled to behave as an RFID reader. Moreover, the first RFID tag is positioned within a first field generated by the RFID reader, while the second RFID tag being in a second field generated by the first RFID tag, the second field generated using the energy stored in the first RFID tag. This type of tag to tag coupling/communication arrangement can continue for a number of tags. Not only does this allow for communication around physical obstacles, but it allows any RFID tag to be configured to perform a synchronized reader operation with the RFID reader.

    摘要: As indicated above, the present invention transparently inserts search arguments/terms (referred to as noise) into a search string so that the search arguments themselves would not be clearly evident when a user is searching. The inserted noise terms are related to the underlying search terms. This would confuse a mining program and/or hacker looking for sensitive material (such as intellectual property). When the search results are returned, any “hits” resulting from noise will be removed transparently from the overall results. The insertion and removal under the present invention provides a more secure level of searching, yet is completely transparent to the end user. The inserted random search arguments are germane contextually to the search string.

    摘要: The present invention relates to memory to memory communication and storage for hybrid systems. Under the present invention, a data stream is received on a first computing device of a hybrid system. An attempt is made to store the data stream on the first computing device up to a per stream limit and a total storage limit of the first computing device. It is then determined whether to store at least a portion of the data stream on a second computing device of the hybrid system that is in communication with the first computing device. This decision is based on the per stream limit and the total storage limit of the first computing device as well as a per stream limit and a total storage limit of the second computing device. Thereafter, the at least a portion of the data stream and a control signal are communicated to the second computing device for storage.
