Abstract:
A system and method for sending and receiving packets is provided. An embodiment includes a system comprising a wireless communication device configured to communicate with at least one application server via device access node and a wireless local area network. The wireless communication device is configured to communicate with the device access node through the wireless local area network using at least one protocol layer that is native to the wireless local area network, and using at least one protocol layer that is native to the device access node. The device access node is configured to send and receive application information carried over above-described protocol layers.
Abstract:
A system and method of control and management of communications between endpoints using access nodes, comprising receiving data at a first access node from a first endpoint using a protocol that does not support session-based communications, initiating a communication session between the first access node and second access node associated with a second endpoint using a transport-independent signaling protocol, wherein the session is uniquely identified using source and destination identifiers and payload type of the data received from the first endpoint, during the communication session between the first access node and second access node controlling routing of data transfer between the first and second endpoints, and terminating the communication session responsive to determining that the transfer of data has stopped.
Abstract:
A method and system for distributing data between a first user and a second user by detecting direct or indirect communication between the first user and the second user, creating an entry for the second user in a roster for the first user, populating the entry for the second user in the roster of the first user with data elements and attributes of the data elements, the data elements and attributes of the data elements indicating what data can be shared with the second user and how the data is to be shared and utilizing the roster of the first user to distribute data reflecting the first user to the second user.

Abstract:
A joist end cap overcoming the shortcomings of prior joist end caps is disclosed. A joist end cap having five walls, namely a top wall, bottom wall, pair of side walls and end wall, define a cavity for receipt of an end of a piece of lumber. The bottom wall is slanted to allow moisture to exit from the cavity. The top and bottom wall may be interchangeable, such that the top and bottom wall are both slanted and users may use the end cap in either orientation. Elongated ribs and projections along inner surfaces of the walls provide for air flow and run off of any undesired moisture. A unique connector guide and circular ring configuration ensure that connectors (e.g., nails, screws or rivets) used to connect the joist end cap to the lumber do not damage the joist end cap and/or create ingresses for moisture to enter the cavity.
Abstract:
In one illustrative example, a method in a wireless router system for transmitting data packets to a mobile communication device through the wireless communication network based upon a round trip time associated with communication of each data packet is provided. The round trip time is a time period between the transmission of each data packet and reception of a corresponding acknowledgement signal from the mobile communication device. A number of data packets matched for a window size are transmitted to the mobile communication device, and a round trip time associated with communication of each of the transmitted data packets is measured. The window size for data packet transmission is re-sized by increasing the window size if the round trip time associated with the communication of each of the transmitted data packets is within a first time threshold, and decreasing the window size if the round trip time associated with the communication of any of the transmitted data packets is more than the first time threshold but less than a second time threshold. The window size is also decreased if the round trip time of any of the transmitted data packets is more than the second time threshold, where each such data packet is further marked as a lost data packet. A number of data packets matched for the re-sized window is subsequently transmitted, including a retransmission any data packets marked as lost. The steps of the method are repeated from the measuring step until data packets to be transmitted are exhausted.
Abstract:
The invention disclosed is an administration system and method for administering user access to an Enterprise system that supports redirection of data from a user's desktop computer in a Local Area Network to a user's wireless device. The Enterprise system having a plurality of message servers and one or more Enterprise servers, the Enterprise servers serving to direct data stored on the message servers between the user's desktop computer and the user's wireless device. The administration system having two components, a user interface (or client) and a administration service. The client having restricted access to what changes can be made to the data on the Enterprise server, yet sufficient permissions to require a single point of access to maintain user access to both the message server and the Enterprise servers.
Abstract:
A wireless router employing a technique to couple a plurality a host services or host systems and a plurality of wireless networks. A method to route data items between a plurality of mobile devices and a plurality of host systems through a common wireless router. A point-to-point communication connection is preferably established between a first host system and a common wireless router, a mobile network message at a mobile device is generated, the mobile network message is transmitted via a wireless network to the common wireless router which in turn routes a data item component of the mobile network message to the appropriate host service.
Abstract:
A system is provided for providing content to a plurality of mobile electronic devices, where at least some of the mobile electronic devices have wireless communications capabilities. The system includes a first network for use with a second network. The first network comprises a wireless network system for communicating with at least some of the mobile electronic devices through wireless sessions; a wired to wireless gateway module connected to the wireless network system for interfacing between a wireless portion of the first network and a wired portion of the first network; a session control module interfacing with the wired to wireless gateway module for managing the wireless sessions and wired sessions; and a relay server module interfacing with the session control module and the wired to wireless gateway module, the relay server module for providing relayed content to the mobile electronic devices. The second network comprises an external server for providing content to the mobile electronic devices. The external server communicates directly with either the relay server module or the wired to wireless gateway module.
Abstract:
A computer-readable device is provided to a user. The device has unique and unalterable identification data set by its manufacturer, and application data stored therein by a party other than the manufacturer. The identification data and the application data from the device are collected based on an attempt by the user to access a first Web resource. The device is authorized or unauthorized based on the identification data and the application data. If the device is unauthorized, access to the first Web resource is denied and the user is forwarded to a second Web resource. If the device is authorized, access is authorized or unauthorized based on a rule record associated with the device. If access is authorized, the user is enabled access to the first Web resource. If access is unauthorized, access to the first Web resource is denied and the user is forwarded to a third Web resource.
