A screen sharing system that enables selective access to application data and application logic is described. This screen sharing system is implemented by coupling a helper application (36) to an application that provides content referred to as content application (35).

The helper application is an application that has the ability to programmatically access the content application (35) using window system graphical user interface application programming interface. Helper application (36) is used to get and set content application data and interact with the content application using window system input events that simulate user input.

This method enables selective access to both application data and application logic that is necessary for use in a screen sharing system used by participants that may be trusted or may not be fully trusted.

A product selling system is provided which allows clients with networks accessible to the Internet to contact a service provider network for purchases. The service provider network includes a database with three dimensional (3D) image data for a variety of its products, and an application which allows a 3D product image to be integrated into a corresponding 3D image of a projected receiving space for the product prior to purchase. A web server which has a program operative with the database facilitates image manipulation to produce a 3D sample image from a product image on the web page if a client desires.

An apparatus, business method and program product for selectively providing access to a service facility such as a financial institution or bank. Client access codes (passwords, PINs) are maintained by the service facility in a database. When a client seeks access to the service facility, e.g., access to the client's account, a random sequence of character is generated and passed to the client. The client responds with an offset that when combined with the random character sequence is the client's access code. The client sends the code to the service facility and is granted access to the client's account. Optionally, the service facility may specify an intended relationship between the offset and the random character sequence, e.g., the offset is added/subtracted from the random character sequence. For additional security, dummy characters may be embedded in the random character sequence.

One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that facilitates access to encrypted data on a computing device based on a security-posture of the computing device. During operation, the system assesses the security-posture of the computing device upon which the encrypted data is stored. If the assessed security-posture meets specified criteria, the system provides the computing device with a key which enables the computing device to access the encrypted data.

A brassiere includes a pair of shoulder straps and a pair of cup members located generally below the shoulder straps. Each of the cup members includes an inner contact layer substantially completely covering the breast of a wearer, and an outer compression layer slidably disposed in covering relation to the inner contact layer. An adjustment and securing assembly is disposed between each outer compression layer and its corresponding shoulder strap. The adjustment and securing assembly, which may be provided as a hook-and loop fastener system, is adapted and constructed to adjustably secure the outer compression layer to the shoulder strap. Attachment of the outer compression layers to the shoulder straps lifts and compresses the breasts of the wearer to reduce the potential for inertial movement of the breasts both outwardly and downwardly.

A plurality of hooks are mounted to the panels for hanging articles of jewelry.

In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, a thyristor-based semiconductor memory device may comprise an array of thyristor-based memory formed in an SOI wafer. A supporting substrate may be formed with a density of dopants sufficient to assist delivery of a bias level to the backside of an insulating layer beneath a thyristor. Such conductivity within the substrate may allow reliable back-gate control for the gain of a component bipolar device of the thyristor.

A system and method for enhanced support for handling of Closed Subscriber Groups (CSGs) and sharing of Radio Access Network (RAN) for home base stations and other small cells. An enhanced System Information (SI) structure indicates multiple CSG IDs and CSG Indications, thereby making it possible to support different CSG IDs and CSG Indications for every Public Land Mobile Network Identity (PLMN-ID) and also to support a PLMN-ID with multiple associated CSG IDs and CSG Indications. The enhanced SI makes it possible to have different CSG IDs for different operators, to have multiple CSG IDs for one operator (i.e., a single PLMN), and to selectively use the CSG concept for some PLMNs (as given by their respective CSG Indications), but not for all. A network of base stations (e.g., a RAN) thus can be effectively shared by multiple operators, leading to better cellular coverage, peak rates, and capacity.

A single application program and system process whereby digital media or sound files, typically those derived from a court hearing, are converted, compressed, encrypted, and sent electronically to an FTP site by a court reporter. The converted files are then retrieved electronically via FTP from said site by a scopist whereby the files are decompressed, decrypted, and displayed on the scopist's computer. Such functions are conducted in a secure manner so as to produce secure data file format which allows users to effectively transfer the files across the Internet. The inventive application program provides executable code providing computer instructions and operation functionality of providing for files to be stored on an FTP Internet site, and includes means for verification of user's serial numbers for authentication of valid users, and prevention of unauthorized access to the secure data. Converted and completed files from the scopist are either uploaded to a final destination via electronic email or replacing them on an FTP Internet site as designated by the inventive method.

A system and method for verifying a patient's immunity to a predetermined pathogen are provided. The contemplated system relies on at least one of patient-specific and exposure data, which could include immunization or vaccination data, to assess the patient's immunity to a predetermined pathogen. If immunity is verified, the patient is selectively issued a digital certificate real-time and/or on-demand used to allow access to a building, gain authorization to conduct predetermined activities, work, travel freely, etc. The immunity certificate may be renewed or revoked if predetermined events occur, such as a rise in body temperature over a predetermined level.
