US Patent:

20030046310, Mar 6, 2003

Filed:

Aug 28, 2001

Appl. No.:

09/941072

Inventors:

David Goodman - New York NY, US
Jason Chang - Brooklyn NY, US
Pratik Mehta - New York NY, US

Assignee:

Polytechnic University

International Classification:

G06F012/00

US Classification:

707/200000

Abstract:

Helping users to track the contents (e.g., files) stored on various types of storage media without requiring the user to insert the storage media into a read device of a machine, such as a floppy drive of a personal computer, and/or helping users to locate desired content (e.g., a file) without having to insert numerous storage media into a read device of a machine. The contents of a given storage medium may be determined by associating a machine-readable label with each machine-readable medium, and the contents thereof. When a user wants to know the contents of the machine-readable medium, they merely need to have another device (e.g., a Palm Pilot provided with a bar code scanner) read the label. The device may include a database synchronized with a database managed by the machine which is used to write content to, and/or read content from, the machine-readable medium. A file may be found by (i) allowing a user to enter one or more search parameters into the device, such as a handheld, untethered device, (ii) generating a search query from the entered parameter(s), (iii) getting a search result(s) indicating the storage medium that includes the desired content, and (iv) helping the user to associate the indicated storage medium with the physical storage medium actually storing the desired content.

Appl. No.:

5/798786

Inventors:

David Joel Goodman - Summit NJ
James David Johnston - N. Plainfield NJ
A. Michael Noll - Stirling NJ

Assignee:

Bell Telephone Laboratories, Incorporated - Murray Hill NJ

International Classification:

H04M 158

US Classification:

179 81A

Abstract:

A controllable-gain amplifier is connected between the transmitter and receiver of a telephone set and is controlled in response to the level of the telephone user's speech so as to provide an increase in gain when the user speaks too loud and a decrease in gain when the user speaks too low. This results in a sidetone which causes the user to change his or her voice level to obtain an acceptable level of sidetone. A better-controlled user voice level is thus achieved.

Appl. No.:

7/649137

Inventors:

David J. Goodman - Cliffwood Beach NJ
Mustafa K. Gurcan - Crawley, GB2

Assignee:

U.S. Philips Corporation - New York NY

International Classification:

H04B 110

US Classification:

375103

Abstract:

In an adaptive filter (56) the coefficients of a transversal filter (64) are adjusted by a processing circuit (78) to reduce the difference between a signal applied to the filter input (55) and a reference signal applied to a further input (57) so that the filter transfer characteristic becomes such that it will convert a first signal into a second signal. The first and second signals are constituted by a signal occurring in a signal path through a communications receiver and an ideal version of this signal respectively. In order that a relatively simple but hence relatively slow algorithm can be employed by the processing circuit without requiring a correspondingly long first signal the first and second signals are not applied to the adaptive filter directly but only after convolution in respective transversal filters (49,62) with the output of a noise source (60). The adaptive filter is then used as an equalizer in the receiver.

David Goodman - New York NY
Costas Aplezis - Queens NY

International Classification:

C14B 100
A41D 500

US Classification:

Abstract:

A process for producing fur garments, trimmings, and other miscellaneous accessories involving one or more strips of fur to produce a spiraled, feathery textured effect. The invention includes garments, trimmings and accessories made by the inventive process.

US Patent:

Filed:

Nov 29, 1976

Appl. No.:

5/745831

Inventors:

David Joel Goodman - Summit NJ
Raymond Steele - Long Whatton, EN

Assignee:

Bell Telephone Laboratories, Incorporated - Murray Hill NJ

International Classification:

G06F 1100
G08C 2500

US Classification:

3401461R

Abstract:

An error reducing arrangement is provided for a signal receiver wherein a sequence of received signals is divided into groups and each group is partitioned into subgroups. A signal representative of the deviations among the signals of each group and a signal representative of the deviations among the signals of each subgroup of said group are generated. Responsive to a subgroup deviation signal exceeding its group deviation signal, the subgroup signals are altered to reduce the subgroup deviations. In this manner errors are reduced without affecting error free signals.

International Classification:

G06Q 30/02

Abstract:

Methods, systems, and apparatus, for reporting publisher and advertiser advertising metrics across verticals. In one aspect, a method includes accessing impression data describing impressions of advertisements on publisher resources, wherein for each impression of an advertisement on a publisher resource, the impression data identifies a publisher and categories to which the publisher belongs, an advertiser and verticals to which the advertiser belongs, and attributes of the impression; receiving benchmark specification data defining a benchmark specification for one of the publishers or the advertisers, and further defining performance metrics based on the attributes of the impressions for the publisher or the advertiser and impressions of other publishers and other advertisers; and generating reporting data for displaying a benchmark report of performance metrics for one of the publishers or advertisers respectively relative to other publishers or advertisers and grouped by a respective publisher category or advertiser vertical.
