International Classification:

G06Q 30/00

US Classification:

705 141

Abstract:

A computer implemented method for maximizing publisher revenue for online advertising is provided. The computer implemented method includes determining a ratio of guaranteed ad impressions to expected remaining ad impressions. If the ratio is less than a threshold, the method includes, identifying a minimum bid value, the minimum bid value based on the ratio; comparing the minimum bid value to a received bid value for an ad impression; allocating the ad impression to an owner of the received bid when the received bid value is greater than or equal to the minimum bid value; and displaying an ad of the owner of the received bid. If the ratio is greater than the threshold, the method includes, allocating the ad impression to an owner of the guaranteed ad impressions. In one embodiment, the method operations are stored on a computer readable storage medium.

International Classification:

H04L009/00

US Classification:

713/166000

Abstract:

Systems and methods for device authentication using a master key that is stored in protected non-volatile memory. The master key is used to derive sensitive data that is transferred to storage that is only accessible in a privileged mode of operation of the computing system. The sensitive data and the master key are not directly accessible by programs that are not running in the privileged mode of operation. The master key is used to derive one or more application keys that are used to secure data that is specific to an application/device pair. Non-privileged programs can request functions that run in the privileged mode to use these application keys. The privileged mode program checks the integrity of the non-privileged calling program to insure that it has the authority and/or integrity to perform each requested operation. One or more device authority servers are used to issue and manage both master and application keys.

International Classification:

G06F012/14

US Classification:

713/189000

Abstract:

System and method for securing a computing device using a master cryptographic key that is bound to the device. The master key is used to derive sensitive data that is transferred to storage that is only accessible in a restricted mode of operation. The master key is used to derive one or more application keys that are used to secure data that is specific to an application/device pair. Non-privileged programs can request functions that run in a more restricted mode to use these application keys. The restricted mode program checks the integrity of the non-privileged calling program to insure that it has the authority and/or integrity to perform each requested operation. One or more device authority servers may be used to issue and manage both master and application keys.

International Classification:

A61K 31/405

US Classification:

514419000

Abstract:

A pharmaceutical composition for the sustained release of an effective amount of a selective 5-hydroxytryptamine 3 (5-HT) receptor antagonist for the prevention, reduction or alleviation of acute and delayed chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) following a course of emetogenic chemotherapy, wherein the composition is administered by subcutaneous injection, the composition comprising a 5-HTreceptor antagonist, a semi-solid delivery vehicle and a pharmaceutically acceptable liquid excipient; wherein the composition, when administered in a single dosage, provides a controlled release of the 5-HTreceptor antagonist and prolonging the release of the 5-HTreceptor antagonist that tracks the profile of the incidence of vomiting.
