摘要:
A licensing server source distributes a so-called license configuration file to a client for purposes of enabling operation of a software application installed on a computer. When a user initiates execution of the vendor software for the first time, code associated with the software application accesses the license configuration file for purposes of obtaining authorization (e.g., one or more activation certificates) to operate the software application. Depending on the type of license configuration file forwarded to the respective client, the license configuration file can include either a corresponding activation certificate to operate the software or include an address of a remote source (e.g., address) in which to register and obtain authorization to operate the software application. Enabling retrieval of the activation certificate directly from the license configuration file (as a possible alternative to requiring remote registering and authentication to obtain authorization) enables immediate use of the software application.

A vendor-operated server can be configured to receive requests from one or more customers to return corresponding sets of (one or more) software licenses for financial credit. In response to receiving a request to return a set of software licenses, the vendor-operated server verifies the return of the set of software licenses to ensure that the customer (making the request) no longer uses the software licenses to operate the vendor's software application(s). After receiving and confirming a return of the set of software licenses back to the vendor-operated server, the vendor-operated server provides notification to, for example, a vendor's corresponding order management system (e.g., financial/license management system) to indicate that the customer has returned the set of software licenses. This verification ensures that the customer does not inadvertently or intentionally continue to use the vendor's software application after obtaining credit for the returned licenses.
摘要:
A method and a system perform software suite activation. In some embodiments, a method includes installing a software suite having a number of software products onto a computer device. If a copy of one of the number of software products is already activated on the computer device, the installing includes deactivating a license of the copy of the one of the number of software products. Additionally, if a copy of one of the number of software products is already activated on the computer device, the installing includes adopting, by the software suite, the copy of the one of the number of software products.
摘要:
A system receives a serial number for software to be installed on a computer system and decodes the serial number to identify a license type associated with the software. The system obtains a license configuration corresponding to the license type associated with the software and communicates with a licensing server based on the license configuration for production of an authorization code to allow operation of the software on a computer system. The system receives an authorization code from the licensing server allowing operation of the software on the computer system.

High temperature treatment of graphite nanofibers to increase their catalytic activity. The heat treated graphite nanofiber catalysts are suitable for catalyzing chemical reactions such as oxidation, hydrogenation, oxidative-dehydrogenation, and dehydrogenation.
摘要:
A method, an apparatus and a system perform software uninstallation that integrates transfer activation. In some embodiments, a method includes uninstalling software from a machine that is activated on the machine. The software has a limited number of activations. The uninstalling operation comprises deactivating the software on the machine.

摘要:
High temperature treatment of graphite nanofibers to convert the materials to carbon nanochips and thereby enhance their performance as support media for metal catalytic particles. The carbon nanochips are suitable for supports for metal and metal oxide particles to catalyze chemical reactions such as oxidation, hydrogenation, oxidative-dehydrogenation, and dehydrogenation. In this regard, they function as a new type of highly conductive catalyst support media.
摘要:
The present invention identified a high affinity binding sequence in collagen type III for the collagen-binding integrin I domains. Provided herein are the methods used to characterize the sequence, the peptides comprising this novel sequence and the use of the peptides in enabling cell adhesion. Also provided herein are methods to identify specific integrin inhibitors, sequences of these inhibitors and their use in inhibiting pathophysiological conditions that may arise due to integrin-collagen interaction.
摘要:
A descriptive data structure provides an abstract representation of a rights management data structure such as a secure container. The abstract representation may describe, for example, the layout of the rights management data structure. It can also provide metadata describing or defining other characteristics of rights management data structure use and/or processing. For example, the descriptive data structure can provide integrity constraints that provide a way to state rules about associated information. The abstract representation can be used to create rights management data structures that are interoperable and compatible with one another. This arrangement preserves flexibility and ease of use without compromising security.
