    Abstract: An auction method for specifying catalog contents for packaging and pushing to an electronic auction. The auction method is implemented in an electronic commerce exchange. The auction method includes the steps of specifying catalog contents for packaging for an auction operation hosted on the electronic exchange. Initial terms for the sale of the contents are then specified. The auction is then automatically initiated using the previously specified contents and the previously specified terms. The auction proceeds with the receiving of bids for the contents from remote bidders. The bids are received via a distributed computing network into which the electronic commerce exchange is communicatively coupled. A winning bid is selected by determining a most competitive bid out of the bids received for the contents. A sale of the contents is then completed based upon the terms of the most competitive bid.

    Abstract: A social network allows its members to regulate what data is accessible to other members using one or more privacy settings. A particular member of the social network can modify the one or privacy settings to grant or deny different users access to different data. When a member modifies a privacy setting, the social network determines which information pathways communicating data between members are affected. The affected information pathways are then modified responsive to the privacy setting to communicate data identified by the modified privacy setting and enforce the new privacy restrictions.

    Abstract: An auction method for implementing automatic bid status refresh and item attribute updates in an electronic exchange. The method includes the step of receiving update configuration information from remote bidders via a distributed computer network. The update configuration information includes a time interval for receiving bid status updates. An auction is conducted wherein bid information received from the remote bidders is compared to determine a bid status and wherein the bid status is used to determine the bid status updates for the remote bidders. The bid status includes information regarding the most competitive, or winning, bid and any associated terms. The bid status updates are disseminated to the remote bidders via the distributed computer network in accordance with the update configuration information. At the conclusion of the auction, an auction winner is designated in accordance with the latest most competitive bid of the bid status. The time interval of the update configuration information is user selected and can be adjusted dynamically during the auction. Remote bidders receive bid status updates in accordance with their specified time interval. Changes to the items and/or item attributes of the auction are also disseminated to the remote bidders via the distributed computer network in accordance with the time interval of the update configuration information.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, an apparatus comprises serializer/deserializer (SERDES) circuits. Each SERDES circuit provides data received from a respective lane to which the SERDES circuit is coupled. A receive pipe is coupled to the SERDES circuits and comprises accumulate buffers, multiplexing levels, accumulate buffer counters, control registers, and control logic. Each accumulate buffer corresponds to a respective port configurable over the plurality of lanes. A first level of the multiplexing levels is coupled to receive data from neighboring lanes on one input and the data from the neighboring lanes connected in reverse order on the other input. Each multiplexor at each other level is coupled to receive outputs of neighboring multiplexors from a next lower level on one input and the outputs connected in reverse order on the other input. Each configuration register corresponds to a respective port, indicating an initial lane assigned to the respective port and a size of the port. The control logic is configured to generate select signals responsive to respective bits of the buffer counters and respective bits of initial lane numbers.

    Abstract: Software based tools are provided to course instructors in an educational community to enable an instructor to access content of a plurality of academic courses from an information terminal. A user interface displays a class list and a list of tasks, and allows the instructor to select a plurality of classes from the displayed class list and select a task from the displayed list of tasks. In response to user entry of a single command through the user interface, a processing part causes the selected task to be performed to course content for each of the plurality of selected classes. Thus, the instructor can add or modify content to each of the plural selected classes through a single command entered through the information terminal.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a statistical modeling approach to automatic linguistic indexing of photographic images. The invention uses categorized images to train a dictionary of hundreds of statistical models each representing a concept. Images of any given concept are regarded as instances of a stochastic process that characterizes the concept. To measure the extent of association between an image and a textual description associated with a predefined concept, the likelihood of the occurrence of the image based on the characterizing stochastic process is computed. A high likelihood indicates a strong association between the textual description and the image. The invention utilizes two-dimensional multi-resolution hidden Markov models that demonstrate accuracy and high potential in linguistic indexing of photographic images.
