摘要:
A method and system for dynamically varying intermediation functions in a communication path between a content server and a client station. An intermediation system within the communication path receives an HTTP message and detects an intermediation-variance instruction within the message. In response, the intermediation system varies a default set of intermediation logic, such as by removing, changing or adding one or more intermediation triggers and/or intermediation actions. In turn, the intermediation system applies the variant intermediation logic in response to the HTTP message and/or in response to subsequent HTTP messages.

A method and system for inserting web content through intermediation between a content server and a client station. An intermediation system within an HTTP communication path between a content server and a client station receives a markup language that is being transmitted via the HTTP communication path from the content server to the client station. The intermediation system then detects a markup-insertion instruction within the markup language and responsively inserts new markup language into the set of markup language, so as to establish a modified set of markup language. The intermediation system then sends the modified markup language along the HTTP communication path to the client station.
摘要:
A method and system for providing advanced notice of cost to access web content. During transmission of web content over a communication path between a content server and a client station, an intermediation system adds into the web content, in conjunction with a hyperlink to web content, an indication of cost to access the referenced web content. The indication of cost will then be presented to a user when the web content is presented to the user, thereby giving the user an advanced notice of the cost to access the referenced content.
摘要:
A method and system for embellishing web content during transmission of the content between a content server and a client station. An intermediation system receives web content that is being transmitted via an HTTP communication path from the content server to the client station. The system then adds into the content at least one explanatory object and then sends the content with the explanatory object along the HTTP communication path to the client station. The explanatory object could take various forms. For instance, it could be an explanation of what will happen when a user clicks on a particular hyperlink in the web content.
摘要:
A method and system operative to preclude content providers from tracking users, while still allowing content providers to communicate to users. An intermediary, such as an access channel provider for instance, gives content providers non-repeating user-identification-tokens, each of which a content provider can use as a key to access an intermediary resource that facilitates a communication to the user, without revealing the user's identity to the content provider.

摘要:
A method and system for notifying a user that the user is engaging in interstitial communication. An intermediation system within an HTTP communication path between a content server and a client station engages in interstitial communication with a client station. During the interstitial communication, the intermediation system sends one or more interstitial screens to the client station and includes in each screen a predefined interstitial notice. Further, to help safeguard against the possibility that a third party will try to provide the interstitial notice within an HTTP response to the client station, the intermediation system can be arranged to detect and strip the interstitial notice from any such HTTP response.

A thick-game client device includes all of the game data processing on-board while a thin-game client device includes only a small portion of game data processing such as to render visual displays while the majority of the game data processing is network based. A thick-voice client devices includes all of the voice processing on-board while a thin-voice client device includes only a small portion of the voice processing such as to generate acoustic parameter data discussed below while the remainder of the voice processing occurs at a voice services node. It will be appreciated that a client device may be thick with respect to both game processing and voice processing, may be thick with respect to one type of processing and thin with respect to the other, or may be thin with respect to both types of processing.
摘要:
Arterial and venous endothelial cells are molecularly distinct from the earliest stages of angiogenesis. This distinction is revealed by expression on arterial cells of a transmembrane ligand, called EphrinB2 whose receptor EphB4 is expressed on venous cells. Targeted disruption of the EphrinB2 gene prevents the remodeling of veins from a capillary plexus into properly branched structures. Moreover, it also disrupts the remodeling of arteries, suggesting that reciprocal interactions between pre-specified arterial and venous endothelial cells are necessary for angiogenesis. This distinction can be used to advantage in methods to alter angiogenesis, methods to assess the effect of drugs on artery cells and vein cells, and methods to identify and isolate artery cells and vein cells, for example.
摘要:
A neural interface system including an electrode array and a carrier that supports the electrode array, in which the electrode array includes a substrate rolled into a three-dimensional shape, a plurality of conductive traces patterned on the substrate and adapted to transmit electrical signals, and a plurality of elliptically shaped, externally facing electrode sites coupled to the plurality of conductive traces that electrically communicate with their surroundings. The plurality of electrodes are arranged in a triangular lattice circumferentially around and axially along the carrier, and the substrate includes an edge that extends axially along the carrier and is constrained between a first axial row portion of the plurality of electrode sites and a second axial row portion of the plurality of electrode sites adjacent to the first axial row portion.
