A novel system and method are disclosed for finding and serving consumer product-related information over the Internet to consumers. The system includes Internet information servers which store information pertaining to Universal Product Number (e.g. UPC number) preassigned to each consumer product registered with the system, along with a list of Uniform Resource Locators (URLs) that point to the location of one or more information resources on the Internet, e.g. World Wide Web-sites, which related to such registered consumer products. Upon entering the UPC number into the system using a conventional Internet browser program, the menu of URLs associated with the entered UPC number is automatically displayed for user selection. The displayed menu of URLs are categorically arranged according to specific types of product information such as, for example: product specifications and operation manuals; product wholesalers and retailers; product advertisements and promotions; product endorsements; product updates and reviews; product warranty/servicing; related or complementary products; product incentives including rebates, discounts and/or coupons; manufacturer's annual report and 10K information; electronic stock purchase; etc. As part of the product registration process, manufacturers are provided with turn-key database construction tools that allow them to create, maintain and serve on the WWW, limited versions of the UPC/URL databases which contain information relating only to the manufacturer's products, and no other manufacturers. The master UPC/URL database of the system is updated using the UPC/URL information in these manufacturer maintained UPC/URL databases.

A full-service turn-key in-application commerce solution with fraud detection is disclosed that provides web service interfaces to a commerce system. The in-application solution features fraud detection with user behavior tracking and fraud controls that limit the features that are offered to a user. Fraud detection involves input from the application, the commerce system, or third party systems. User fraud scores are updated frequently as events are processed. Controls are applied to the user account based on the user fraud score and risk classifications for ranges of fraud scores. An in-application solution also features a wallet with a personal threshold for microtransaction spending, limiting the amount that the user is allowed to spend before a wallet is cleared. The wallet is integrated with the fraud detection such that the personal threshold is determined from the user's latest fraud score.

The invention provides a faster simpler method of manufacturing injected molded polyurethane footwear consisting of two or more parts with different compositions. The business practice of leasing this turnkey system and providing a full-time technician to administer the system allows for minimal investment by a business owner and yields the highest quality product. Simultaneously injecting two different formulas of polyurethane into two different cavities of the same mold will significantly cut production time and cost. The dual rotating or shuffling sole-plate makes it possible to inject the outsole and the insole/upper/shaft simultaneously without fear of mixing. Similarly other poly products consisting of,two or more parts may also be produced using this complex molding system. The unique multi-station linear molding table provides the necessary platform for these special complex molds and enables the changing of molds and/or service to the equipment without fully shutting down or halting all production.

The invention provides a method for building dynamic buffer pool to improve performance of a storage system based on virtual RAID. The storage system comprises a physical storage device, a storage array, a storage array turnkey, virtual RAID and a virtual buffer pool. The building method comprises the following steps of setting up strategies for the virtual buffer pool, creating the virtual RAID, creating a block device mapping table, creating the virtual buffer pool, creating a virtual RAID mapping table, fetching hotspot data to the buffer pool, creating a mapping table for the virtual buffer pool, updating the hotspot data at regular time, modifying a mapping table of the hotspot data, clearing the virtual buffer pool, modifying the virtual RAID, modifying the block device mapping table, modifying the virtual buffer pool, and modifying the virtual RAID mapping table. The method of the invention effectively solves the problem that the system performance is lowered due to insufficient buffer capacity under the premises that the limited device slots of the system are not occupied and the hard disk cost is not increased.

Turnkey maintenance of a customer's aircraft fleet is managed by a single management service provider (MSP) controlling integrated maintenance and materials services from a central operations site. The MSP converts data received directly from on-board aircraft systems into information it uses to manage maintenance service providers and parts suppliers. The MSP contracts with and manages maintenance, repair and overhaul organizations (MROs) who perform the maintenance on the customers' aircraft at line and base stations. The MSP either remotely manages part inventories at the customer's site, or manages suppliers who deliver the parts to the MROs. Maintenance planning, scheduling and execution information is exchanged between the MSP, MROs, part suppliers and the customers through a shared data communication network controlled by the MSP. The MSP charges the customer for the maintenance services based on a flat rate per unit of aircraft flying time.

A system and method are provided for enhancing brand power and distribution channel relationships to satisfy online customers in electronic commercial transactions. In particular, the present system creates a deep collection of products of corporate importance from across the Internet and enables visitors at the organization's web site to find and purchase those items through existing retail and other distribution channels. Additionally, the highly customizable nature of the present invention enables the system to be delivered turnkey as a managed application, implemented without significant impact on the organization's technical operations or business processes. In one embodiment, users of a brand owner's web site can search from a collection of brand-related products available through distribution channel partners, online retailers and distributors. The users may then purchase a product by linking directly to the order entry system of affiliated distribution channel partners. In this manner, the brand owner doesn't alienate them, as well as causing brand dilution in the minds of consumers, or incurring lost sales through distributor-level competition and confusion.
