    摘要: A system and method for providing private demand-driven pricing for fixed cost digital goods are described. Symmetric private information retrieval is engaged on a table that includes public key encryptions of prices for digital goods stored in a database by a seller system, wherein a desired marginal pricing level has not been realized. The price of one digital good is decrypted with a private key for pricing by a purchaser system. A purchasing decision based upon the decrypted price is sent to the seller system without revealing the particular digital good being purchased. A conditionally disclosed symmetric key for goods is received under which the digital goods in the database have been encrypted. Symmetric private information retrieval is engaged on the database and the digital good purchased with the symmetric key is decrypted. The encrypted prices of the digital goods are privately updated based upon the desired marginal pricing level.

    摘要: A high fill-factor photosensor array is formed comprising a P-layer, an I-layer, one or more semiconductor structures adjacent to the I-layer and each coupled to a N-layer, an electrically conductive electrode formed on top of the P-layer, and an additional semiconductor structure, adjacent to the N-layer and which is electrically connected to a voltage bias source. The bias voltage applied to the additional semiconductor structure charges the additional semiconductor structure, thereby creating a tunneling effect between the N-layer and the P-layer, wherein electrons leave the N-layer and reach the P-layer and the electrically conductive layer. The electrons then migrate and distribute uniformly throughout the electrically conductive layer, which ensures a uniform bias voltage across to the entire photosensor array. The biasing scheme in this invention allows to achieve mass production of photosensors without the use of wire bonding.

    摘要: A method of displaying an image in an electrophoretic display device includes charging each of the sets of differently colored particles to have a different charge through application of an electric field to the display fluid or the device, and then applying an electric field to selected ones of the multiplicity of reservoirs to effect movement of one or more of the differently colored sets of particles in the display fluid therein to display a desired color derived from among the sets of differently colored particles. The colors are shown by way of the particle set or sets moved to be closet to the viewing side conductive substrate of the device. The device may include at least one display layer, including a multiplicity of individual reservoirs containing a display fluid, between conductive substrates, at least one of which is transparent and thus may be a viewing side substrate, wherein the display fluid includes at least two sets of particles in a liquid medium, the at least two sets of particles exhibiting a different color.

    摘要: One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that uses a visual tag to determine an angle. During operation, the system observes the visual tag from an observation point, wherein the visual tag includes an angle-sensitive image which changes in appearance when observed from different angles. Next, the system uses the appearance of the angle-sensitive image (as observed from the observation point) to determine the angle between the visual tag and the observation point. In a variation on this embodiment, the system uses the determined angle along with supplemental information to determine the physical location of the observation point.

    摘要: One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that uses a portable security token (PST) to facilitate cross-certification between a first certification authority (CA) and a second CA, wherein the first CA and associated subscriber devices constitute a first public-key infrastructure (PKI) domain, and wherein the second CA and associated subscriber devices constitute a second PKI domain. During operation, the system uses the PST to transfer certification information between the first CA and the second CA, wherein the PST communicates with the first CA and the second CA through a location-limited communication channel. Next, the system uses the certification information to issue a cross-certificate to the first CA. Note that the cross-certificate is signed by the second CA. Finally, the system propagates the cross-certificate from the first CA to the associated subscriber devices in the first PKI domain, thereby allowing the associated subscriber devices in the first PKI domain to authenticate themselves to the devices in the second PKI domain.

    摘要: Two different processing techniques are utilized to respectively form high resolution features and low resolution features in a critical layer of an electronic device, and in particular a large area electronic device. High resolution features are formed by soft lithography, and low resolution features are formed by jet-printing or using a jet-printed etch mask. Jet-printing is also used to stitch misaligned structures. Alignment marks are generated with the features to coordinate the various processing steps and to automatically control the stitching process. Thin-film transistors are formed by generating gate structures using a first jet-printed etch mask, forming source/drain electrodes using soft lithography, forming interconnect structures using a second jet-printed etch mask, and then depositing semiconductor material over the source/drain electrodes. Redundant structures are formed to further improve tolerance to misalignment, with non-optimally positioned structures removed (etched) during formation of the low resolution interconnect structures.

    摘要: A media transport array for forming sequential media streams feeding a media processing system in which serial flows, parallel flows, or both are desired are structured from standard, batch fabricatable media path modules. Each media path module includes a frame unit, intermodule latching means, media control electronics, and media state sensing electronics. Within each media path module, at least one media transport nip receives media and passes it to an independently actuated media director. Media guides support media as it moves into and out of the media director.
