A method and system for activating and obtaining a license for a software product is disclosed. A local license is obtained from a storage medium of the software product and is stored with the software product on a user's computer. The local license allows for one of multiple license types to be activated from a single software product. The user enters a product key containing a channel ID. The compact disk or other storage medium is searched for the appropriate local license for the channel ID. The local license includes a MSIID, a channel ID range for each supported license type, a license type for each channel id range, and an optional product expiration date for the license type. The license type is determined by looking up the product key's channel id in the local license's channel id range table. If activation is required based on the license type, then an installation ID including a product ID (PID) and a hardware ID (H / W ID) are transmitted to an activation authority. The activation authority uses the PID to determine whether the software product has been activated before and uses the channel ID to determine the type of backend license to grant. If the PID is found in the database, the activation authority applies various unlocking rules to determine whether or not the backend license should be issued and, if so, the he activation authority transmits a backend license.

A method, system, and computer software product for correlating medical images, comprising: obtaining first image data representative of a first medical image including a first abnormality; obtaining second image data representative of a second medical image including a second abnormality; determining at least one feature value for each of the first and second abnormalities using the first and second image data; calculating, based on the determined feature values, a likelihood value indicative of a likelihood that the first and second abnormalities are a same abnormality; and outputting the determined likelihood value.

The present invention invalidates the operator's input which interferes with the normal operation of an application. More particularly, a transparent window 110 is previously generated behind an application 120 for which an operator's misoperation can occur. And, upon the detection of a predetermined operation having occurred on the application 120, the operator's misoperation such as double clicking is invalidated by outputting the transparent window 110 in front of the application 120.

Systems and processes for migration of data stored in a label-based software configuration management (CM) system to records of a time-based CM system in a manner that permits for identification, in the time-based system, of contents of releases. In some exemplary implementations, techniques operating according to some of the principles described herein will accept as input information relating to a listing of a label-based system and estimate, based on the software component versions in the listing and their corresponding creation times, a release time indicating a time a release was created. The release time may then be used, in some, but not necessarily all, implementations to create a data structure in the time-based system indicating contents of the version at the particular time. Some exemplary implementations may additionally determine, from the estimated release time, whether any software component versions should be explicitly included or excluded from the data structure.
