A method for enhancing port allocation procedures in a computer network by reserving specific ports to particular users and processes. Access protocol for ports are modified to enable a system administrator to defined/pre-select particular users and processes that may access the specific ports. A table structure is provided with the list of users and processes with bind authority for the particular port. When a bind request is received the ID of the user or process is confirmed against those within the table of the requested port. Bind access is provided only when the user ID or process ID matches one that is within the table. The port is allocated to the user/program until the user/process is complete, and other requests for access to the port are ignored until final completion of the ongoing process, even when a temporary disconnect of the port occurs.

Screen (10) for a user interface of a television schedule system and process consists of an array (24) of irregular cells (26), which vary in length, corresponding to different television program lengths of one half hour to one-and-one half hours or more. The array is arranged as three columns (28) of one-half hour in duration, and twelve rows (30) of program listings. Some of the program listings overlap two or more of the columns (28) because of their length. Because of the widely varying length of the cells (26), if a conventional cursor used to select a cell location were to simply step from one cell to another, the result would be abrupt changes in the screen (10) as the cursor moved from a cell (26) of several hours length to an adjacent cell in the same row. An effective way of taming the motion is to assume that behind every array (24) is an underlying array of regular cells. By restricting cursor movements to the regular cells, abrupt screen changes will be avoided. With the cursor (32) , the entire cell (26) is 3-D highlighted, using a conventional offset shadow (34). The offset shadow (34) is a black bar that underlines the entire cell and wraps around the right edge of the cell. To tag the underlying position—which defines where the cursor (32) is and thus, where it will move next—portions (36) of the black bar outside the current underlying position are segmented, while the current position is painted solid.

The present invention is a combined image viewing, drawing, and reporting system, which provides: an easy way to access digital images while creating a digital drawing; and an automated method of creating medical reports by translating the drawing data into standard reports. The present invention system provides automated medical drawings and creates medical reports as a result of translating drawing results. The system provides invaluable tools for drawing, diagnosing and treating ophthalmic and/or other types of diseases by generating an automated translation report based on the physician drawing. Customized reports (e.g., a medical drawing report, a referral note, a medical letter, billing based information, a proofsheet for the patient chart, etc.) can be added by the user. A physician can design a format for a report via system utility tools. The present invention may be a stand-alone system, and/or connected to a network.

A system and method for online employment recruiting and evaluation is provided. An online, web-based environment allows employers to create job descriptions for posting on an Internet-based job search service in communication with the web-based environment, and allows for online recruitment and review of hiring candidates using a multi-phase approach. An employer can create an initial questionnaire associated with the job descriptions, which must be answered by potential employees as part of the recruitment and hiring process. A virtual dossier is created for each potential employee, is stored in a database, and can be reviewed by the employer. An employer can select desired candidates based upon information provided in response to the initial questionnaire, and selected candidates can be provided with a second questionnaire which asks the selected candidates to provide information about previous employers/supervisors. A subset of candidates can then be selected for a telephone interview, which is recorded and stored as part of the virtual dossier. Each employer/supervisor specified by the candidate is also interviewed, and the interview is recorded and is stored as part of the candidate's virtual dossier. A final group of candidates is then selected for an in-person interview, which is recorded and made part of the candidate's virtual dossier. A final review of the updated virtual dossiers is conducted by the employer so that the employer can select a final candidate for hiring. The virtual dossier can be made part of the hired candidate's personnel file, and provides a digital, comprehensive, and easy-to-access record of the recruitment and evaluation process of the candidate.

An adhesive layer on the bottom or top of the stack enables the stack to be easily spliced to another stack.

Well data and production control commands are transmitted from a remote central data store to wells at a remote location with a well hopping system and method, preferably through a radio frequency (RF) network. Request packets are sent through a field station to one or more well units until it reaches the destination well unit. The destination well unit executes the data request or the command and sends a response data packet back to the central data store through the RF network using the same well hopping system and through the field station. The central data store reads and stores the data. One or more satellite offices are connected to the central data store and can download data from the central data store or send/receive data packets to/from the well units. Oxygen content in production gas can be detected and transmitted to the central store for monitoring and reporting.

An object tracking module establishes relationships between different types of data objects associated with application programs while a particular activity occurs. Contextual information associated with the data objects and the activity is collected to establish the relationship. The contextual information may include data objects that are accessed or created while the activity is in progress, or any other information associated with the activity. When an event related to the activity occurs, the object tracking module locates data relevant to the event based on the established relationships. The relevant data is presented in the same information space where the event occurs. A user may easily access the relevant information without manually searching for the data. The object tracking module may determine the degree of relevance between the data objects and the event such that only the most relevant objects are displayed.
