摘要： A real time dynamic vehicle parking price management method, system and processor-readable medium. Two factors can be considered in determining the parking price: the real time occupancy level and the historic parking demand. An assured price that follows from a background schedule can be pre-determined based on a historic parking data. Future demand can be estimated based on the historic occupancy data and price and the assured price can be made proportional to the estimated demand. The assured price can be simplified to be intuitive and easy to remember. A real time parking price can be determined by an occupancy feedback control. A controller can be employed to track the occupancy and to suggest the parking price in real time based on an occupancy set point to improve economic efficiency and reduce cruising for parking.

摘要： Providing means for people to input their observations can reduce the need for sensor deployments because humans have excellent sensing abilities. One thing people tend to observe carefully is parking availability. Parking meters and pay stations can request people to enter their observations of parking availability and other environmental factors. The observations, being numerical in nature, can be processed to determine reasonable parking fees, likelihood of violators in an area, and the statistical, observed, or estimated dispersion of available parking with a geographic region.

摘要： A data integrity verification method and system based on a root random number to ensure secure distributed data storage on a public cloud. A new root random number can be generated in response to receiving a file for storage to the public cloud. A unique random number tag for each data chunk associated with the file can be calculated via a shift operation and the tag can be added to the data chunk. A hash function (message digests) can be then generated and concatenated with the data chunk and the random number tag. The data chunk in conjunction with the hash and the random number tag can be encrypted by an encryption module and stored to the public cloud in order to provide multiple levels of security with respect to the distributed public cloud storage. Upon file retrieval, the encryption module decrypts all data chunks and recalculates the hash in order to verify the data integrity of the file.

摘要： A system and method for creating a peer-to-peer geographical routing overlay network and a multi-attribute similarity routing overlay network. The geographical overlay network can be generated utilizing a geographical routing protocol to organize connections between one or more distributed micro-markets depending on a geographical location of each market and to detect a geographically close neighbor in a decentralized manner. The multi-attribute similarity overlay network can be computed by applying a filtering function based on a multi-attribute routing protocol defined over at least one attribute in order to enable decentralized clustering of the distributed micro-markets. The multi-attribute similarity protocol can be combined with the geographic overlay protocol to route messages to a target set of similarity-based attributes and a target geographic location thereby dynamically evolve a structure of distributed micro-markets over time and optimize a market interaction in the overlay network.

摘要： Systems and methods for distributing work among a plurality of workers in a distributed environment using a granularity determinator module to determine a desired granularity of a data to be worked-on whereby each one of a plurality of document subcomponents individually maintains a level of security based on a security policy. The data is separated out into a plurality of subcomponents which are transmitted to respective workers. A consolidator module can be used to consolidate subcomponents worked on by the respective workers into one worked-on document or file for validation purposes. The system and methods provide an efficient and cost effective way to distribute confidential work to workers without compromising the confidentiality of the information contained in the document or file being worked on.

摘要： The application discloses systems and methods for evaluating bids submitted by providers in response to a reverse auction process initiated by a buyer. The disclosed system determines an attribute utility score of the bid and total performance scores of providers based on the past performance records of the providers. The total performance scores of providers are determined by computing a positive deviation score, a negative deviation score, a performance among peers score, and a bid performance score of the provider. The system further sums the determined attribute utility score and the total performance score to obtain a rank of the submitted bid.
