An interactive event that allows viewers to interact with a story in a video or film environment and change the story that is told based on input provided or obtained from the audience or other sources. For instance, an interactive event is created out of a movie storyline and given alternate endings, branching storylines, dead ends, advances, and regressions in the story. The system is designed to generate an interactive event out of a feature film by inserting menu prompts or branch points throughout the storyline allowing the player to navigate through the story based on input provided. The system allows the viewers to create different stories from the same situations. The events triggered may have a random component and thereby function much less like a pre-scripted story and more like real life where the story is always changing. The interactive storyline provides a domain wherein the participant experiences actions and conflicts along with their favorite characters with the goal of navigating to the end of the movie.

The present invention relates to the identification and use of polypeptides that bind to antibodies directed to a desired polypeptide of interest. Using natriuretic peptides and their precursors, and in particular BNP, as an example, the present invention describes a number of natriuretic peptides fragments produced in biological samples, most preferably blood-derived samples, that bind to antibodies directed to BNP. Because production of such fragments is an ongoing process that may be a function of, inter alia, the elapsed time between onset of an event triggering natriuretic peptide release into the tissues and the time the sample is obtained or analyzed; the elapsed time between sample acquisition and the time the sample is analyzed; the type of tissue sample at issue; the storage conditions; the quantity of proteolytic enzymes present; etc., such fragments may be used when both designing an assay for one or more natriuretic peptides, and when performing such an assay, in order to provide an accurate prognostic or diagnostic result.

An app server receives a device token from a software application on a mobile device. The device token identifies the mobile device for pushing notification messages of the software application to the mobile device via a push notification system. The mobile device is monitored while accessing the Internet in order to detect when the user may benefit from upgraded access to the Internet. The app server then sends one or more notification message(s) to the user such as by sending a message to the device token of the mobile device via the push notification system or to a display device associated with the user at the hospitality establishment. The notification message invites the user to upgrade their Internet access. The push notification system alerts the user to the notification message via the user interface of the mobile device even when the software application is not running on the mobile device.

Methods and apparatus enforce a secure internet connection from a mobiles endpoint computing device. A security policy for the endpoint is defined based on its location. From that location, an internet connection is established and detected. This event triggers the launching of a full VPN tunnel connection including an NDIS firewall forcing packet traffic through a port of the endpoint computing device assigned by the security policy and/or MAC/IP addresses of a VPN concentrator. Thereafter, the packet traffic is monitored for compliance with the security policy. This includes determining whether packet traffic over the assigned port is observed within a given time or packet traffic is attempted over other ports. Monitoring occurs whether or not the protocol of the VPN tunnel connection is known. Other features contemplate quarantining for improper operation of the VPN tunnel, undertaking remediation, and computer program products, to name a few.

A client terminal, such as mobile terminal, stores a version number of its installed data or control program and transmits a request message to the server system via a communication network in response to an event triggered by a user of the client terminal, the request message containing the version number of the data and a phone number of the client terminal. The server system stores most recent data and a version number of the most recent data. When the server system receives the transmitted request, it compares the version number contained in the received request to the stored version number and transmits a copy of the most recent data and the version number of the most recent data to the client terminal via the communication network if there is a mismatch between the compared version numbers. The client terminal receives the copy of the most recent data and the version number from the server system and updates the installed data with the received copy and updates the stored version number with the received version number.

Techniques are disclosed for using business events as triggers to drive payment processing for electronic commerce. As the business logic of a merchant's c-commerce software application reaches various stages that impact payment considerations, it issues a corresponding event notification. According to preferred embodiments, these event notifications are processed by a policy engine, which locates policy information or rules previously configured for that event. Actions are then carried out, based on the configured policy. The merchant e-commerce application is therefore shielded from the details of the underlying payment processing. New payment types can be provided, and existing payment types can be modified if necessary, by adding/modifying policies; the merchant's e-commerce application does not need to change. This event-driven model allows application developers to focus on creating software for the merchant's key business requirements, and makes it easier to maintain the software.
