摘要： Immortal information storage is leveraged to provide an interactive means to retrieve information associated with a physical artifact. The information persists for a substantial portion of the life of the artifact. This allows users to interact with an artifact that symbolically represents an entity, where the entity can be an organic and/or non-organic entity. A physical artifact that symbolically represents a person, animal, or a structure can be utilized. The storage system can contain easy to discover information about building a decoder or providing power and interpreting the information stored therein. A personalized interaction model can also be utilized to facilitate in providing an interactive model that responds to user queries in a fashion characteristic of the entity. Access to the immortalized information can be controlled by identity of entity seeking access, the amount of time that has passed, or events that have occurred. Power for facilitating retrieval of the information can be from thermal, induction, acoustical, and/or light-based sources. A separate User Interface (UI)/Reader can also be employed to inductively provide power to interact with the immortal information and to provide an interface for the user.

摘要： A system is provided that facilitates information processing of a user. The system includes an analyzer to automatically determine one or more states of a user's availability based on patterns of the user's interruptability. A deferral component generates or forwards messages or alerts to the user in accordance with a cost-minimization analysis and determined availability. For example, the deferral component can process interrupts to the user and determine at least one of optimal and approximately optimal deferral times in which to direct an information item to the user, the information item is one of an email message, an incoming phone call, a push-to-talk message, an instant message, an alert, and requests, offers of assistance, status or error reports, or a task from another application or autonomous system.

摘要： The invention relates to an architecture that facilitates load balancing among a plurality of hosts and preserve session affinity to a given host. An incoming stream of data packets that include packet sessions is input to one or more forwarding mechanisms for forwarding to one or more hosts. The forwarders generate a routing function that takes into consideration host availability, and distributes session packets according to the routing function. A session is distributed to the same host to preserve session affinity. When host availability changes, a new routing function is generated, such that any new session is routed according to the new routing function and existing sessions are routed according to the old routing function. When the old routing function becomes irrelevant, it is phased out. An optimization utilizes a maximally backward compatible hash function to minimize the differences between the old and new routing functions.

摘要： The present invention provides a unique system and method that facilitates reducing network traffic between a plurality of servers located on a social-based network. The system and method involve identifying a plurality of vertices or service users on the network with respect to their server or network locations. The vertices' contacts or connections can be located or determined as well. In order to minimize communication traffic, the vertices and their connections with respect to their respective server locations can be analyzed to determine whether at least a subset of nodes should be moved or relocated to another server to facilitate mitigating network traffic while balancing user load among the various servers or parts of the network. Thus, an underlying social network can be effectively partitioned. In addition, the network can be parsed into a collection of nested layers, whereby each successively less dense layer can be partitioned with respect to the previous (partitioned) more dense layer.

摘要： The present invention provides for systems and methods that facilitate conveying user information between and among users effectively to thereby create a collaborative filtering environment with maintained user privacy. More specifically, the present invention allows user-profile building to occur coincident with user-browsing, for example. This can be accomplished in part by incorporating an input component on the user interface used for browsing and/or searching. A user who has opted-in to construct a personal profile makes declarations regarding his relationship with at least a portion of the information being currently viewed. The declarations are annotated to the user's profile. At the user's discretion, the user's profile can be disseminated to others in whole or in part such that other people can make use of the user's expertise, experience or opinions. In addition, the user profiles can be machine-readable and searchable.

摘要： Systems and methods are provided that enable searches of social networks by acting as a “compass” that assists users in navigating the social network. Individual user participation is not required in response to queries from other users. The systems and methods offer navigational assistance or information as opposed to a traditional search which returns requested information, thus currently acceptable social mechanisms for arbitrating trust can be exploited. As a result, users do not make their personal information publicly searchable, while at the same time, they are protected from potential misrepresentations of facts.
