A method for screening for potential fraud in commercial paper is provided. For example, a method of the invention comprises steps of presenting a check for cashing to a check cashing agent (e.g., a bank teller); scanning or inspecting the check for data; selecting data for analysis; analyzing selected data with a commercial paper fraud detection system (“CPFDS”); and reporting results of the fraud detection system analysis to the check cashing agent. The commercial paper fraud detection system provides a means for predicting if commercial paper is potentially fraudulent. For example, the commercial paper fraud detection system may detect stolen checks, altered checks, and fabricated or counterfeit checks, among other types of fraud. Also provided is a computer program product for detecting fraud in commercial paper.

A system automatically establishes context information (e.g., determining changes to user interface workflows, screens, menus, and access requirements for devices such as monitors, ventilators, and diagnostic equipment) used by a worker in using healthcare information applications based on patient geographic location (e.g., a room or bed or department). The system addresses the need for a user to sign onto a system with each location change and manually change context information which consumes computer, server and network resources and represent a potential security problem. A healthcare system selects information to be provided to a user in response to received location dependent context data. The system includes a proximity detector for wirelessly detecting presence of an identification tag substantially within a predetermined vicinity of the detector. The identification tag is associated with at least one of, (a) a particular processing device and (b) a particular person. A location detector determines location information indicating a location associated with an identification tag detected by the proximity detector. A workflow processor automatically alters information presented to a user including information associated with a task sequence to be performed by the user for a patient in response to the determined location information.

A media organizer and entertainment center includes an importer for importing individual media / data selections and automatically assigning each selection at least one associated category flag pursuant to predetermined or user defined criteria. The center also includes a storage device for storing compressed data corresponding to the plurality of individual media / data selections and the associated category flags and a retriever for retrieving selections from the storage device based upon user selection of one or more of the associated category flags, and a data decompresser that translates the compressed data into playable digital or audio media data. With the center, playable digital or audio media data can be advantageously transported, organized, played or recorded through or on a variety of products or devices.
