Aspects of the present invention relate to distributed network coordination and administration. Some aspects relate to network coordination and management using an interfering network list that may be maintained by a network controlling authority. Some aspects relate to allocation of specific bandwidth segments by a network controlling authority to avoid network collisions and improve network efficiency.

A heath monitoring method and system estimate a patient's respiratory rate and heart rate using different frequency components of a shared acoustic signal. Use of a common acoustic signal to estimate the patient's respiratory rate and heart rate permit more economical and simplified heath monitoring.

The embodiments of the present invention provide methods, devices, and systems enabling a central coordinator to manage hidden stations via a proxy central coordinator, where a hidden station is discovered based on beacons and made known to other networked devices via transmitted lists.
摘要:
An ad hoc network organizational method which is employable with a collection of plural nodes in a setting where there is available a current overall network topology map containing at least the identities of, and the inter-nodal communication link qualities and capabilities associated with, each of the nodes. The method generally involves the steps of (a) examining the topology map to determine the current pattern of possible and not-possible direct communication links between pairs of nodes, thus to detect, from an inter-nodal, inter-communication point of view, hidden nodes and non-hidden nodes, and (b) on the basis of such examining, establishing a proxy networking scheme wherein pairs of nodes which are hidden with respect to one another can nonetheless communicate with one another through at least one, intermediary, selectable proxy node which is non-hidden with respect to each of the two nodes in such a pair.
摘要:
A method of determining a transmission process is disclosed. One embodiment comprises a method of notifying a central coordinator of a group to receive a transmission and obtaining system parameters from the central coordinator. The method then determine at least one merit parameter using at least one of the system parameters and at least one local parameter and selects a method of transmission based upon the merit parameter.
摘要:
A multidimensional personal development method and system are realized using defined experiences. The system and method include defining different facets of a user's state of being and different subfacets within these facets, defining and tracking different experiences that impact on the facets and subfacets, enabling the user to record evolving perceptions relative to the experiences and applying the evolving perceptions to compute and present indicators that summarize the user's momentum relative to the facets and subfacets. The system and method are adaptable for implementation in both server-centric and client-centric system architectures.
摘要:
A marketplace for personal development plans operates within a multidimensional personal development system. The marketplace enables a plan provider within the personal development system to create and market and users within the personal development system to search, acquire and implement personal development plans that track experiences, track facets and subfacets of a user's state of being impacted by the experiences and provide assessments that yield feedback to users relative to the plan. The marketplace is adaptable for implementation in both a server-centric or client-centric architecture.
