Transaction methods systems and devices

Abstract: A transaction system includes a computer (20) which performs a transaction method comprising steps of receiving a first data element indicating an item in a transaction, receiving a second data element indicating a party of the transaction, approving the transaction based upon the second data, and creating a record of the transaction. The first data element and the second data element are received via an electronic network (22). The second data element is read from a device (40) by an optical data reader (30) in communication with the electronic network (22).

Noise reduction filters for dynamic image sequences: a review

Abstract: In this paper, a thorough review is presented of noise reduction filters for digital image sequences Detailed descriptions of several spatiotemporal and temporal noise reduction algorithms are provided To aid in comparing between these different algorithms, we classify them based on their support (ie, 3-D or 1-D filter) and whether or not motion compensation is employed Several algorithms from each of the four categories are implemented and tested on real sequences degraded to various signal-to-noise ratios These experimental results are discussed and analyzed to determine the overall advantages and disadvantages of the four general classifications, as well as, the individual filters >

Method for informing a user of a communication device where to obtain a product and communication system employing same

Abstract: A communication system ( 100 ) employs a method for informing a user of a communication device (e.g., 101 ) where to obtain a product. The communication system determines an approximate location of the communication device and whether a particular requested product or one or more other potentially desirable products are available in a general vicinity of the device. When the particular or potentially desirable product is so available, a context engine server ( 109 ) of the communication system conveys a product information request and optionally other purchaser-related information to multiple product providers ( 120 ). The context engine server receives responses to the product information request from at least some of the product providers, wherein at least some of the responses preferably include offers to pay respective advertising fees. The context engine server generates a list of product providers based on the responses and provides the list to the communication device for display to the device user.

System and method for delivery of information over narrow-band communications links

Abstract: System and method for delivery of information over narrow-band communications links. The system has at least a browser (12), a mobile client (10), a fixed server (30) and an origin host (50). The browser (12) requests a resource. The mobile client (10) transmits the request to the fixed server (30). The fixed server (30) retrieves a primary resource from the origin host (50) and any dependent resources. The fixed server (30) transmits the primary resource to the mobile client (10). The mobile client (10) transmits an acknowledgment list to the fixed server (30) requesting certain dependent resources and sends the primary resource to the browser (12). The fixed server (30) transmits the requested dependent resources to the mobile client (10) in one transmission. The mobile client (10) sends the dependent resources to the browser (12) upon request. Thus, only transmitting two round-trips of data across the narrow-band communications link to transfer all the necessary data to create an entire information page reduces the delay significantly.
