    Abstract: Systems and methods for electronically processing accounts receivable (AR) check transactions via a location-base device associated with a merchant. The location-base device, such as a point-of-sale (POS) device, can be configured to perform various functions that facilitate processing of AR checks. Such functions may include improved user interface, an ability to handle a repetitive input parameter, an ability to handle multiple merchant identifiers, an ability to generate multiple receipt types, an ability to edit check transactions, an ability to manage throughput of the device, and an ability to allow scanning of different types of checks so as to allow subsequent processing of the scanned checks to be different based on the type of the check. The location-base device configured in one or more of the foregoing manner facilitates a check authorization process performed by a check processing service.

    Abstract: Provided are a method, system, and program for handling Input/Output (I/O) requests. A bus enables communication with an initiator, target device and device controller, wherein the device controller accesses the target device to execute I/O commands directed to the target device. An I/O request command is received to access the target device. The initiator is configured to transmit at least one data request on the bus to one memory address in a predefined address window of the device controller. The device controller is enabled to claim the data request to the memory address in the predefined address window from the initiator on the bus to execute the data request against the target device.

    Abstract: A system and method of capturing an acceptable fingerprint image is disclosed herein. The method includes a step of capturing an initial fingerprint image at a nominal image integration time. Once this initial fingerprint image is captured, a first intermediate fingerprint image at a first intermediate image integration time is captured. Next, an image darkness test is performed followed by an image definition test. If one or more of these tests indicates that the first intermediate fingerprint image is unacceptable, a subsequent intermediate fingerprint image at a subsequent intermediate image integration time is captured. This subsequent intermediate fingerprint image can be captured before the image definition test is performed. Additional intermediate fingerprint images can be captured until an image that has an acceptable darkness level as a well as an acceptable definition level is captured. Also disclosed is a fingerprint scanner that performs this method.

    Abstract: Methods of rendering an object-based image are described. The methods receive a list of objects (951-955) in the image (950), the list ordering the objects in priority order from a lowest-priority object (951) to a highest-priority object (955). The objects are assigned to a first set of objects (951, 952) and/or a second set of objects (953-955). The first set of objects is rendered to an image store using a first rendering method that only renders a portion of an object if the portion is visible in the first set of objects and the second set of objects is rendered to the image store using a second rendering method that renders each object independently of the other objects in the second set. The assignment may be based on a priority order of a highest-compositing object (952). The assignment may be based on a group of overlapping objects (1101, 1102, 1103, 1105), where an object (1105) in the group requires compositing.

    Abstract: A wood gasification apparatus in which cellulosic material is transported by an auger through a housing and heated to vaporize at least a portion of the cellulosic material by frictional heating. The auger and housing define a spiral void through which the cellulosic material is propelled from the inlet to the outlet, and which continually decreases in volume from the inlet to the outlet. The ever decreasing volume of the void increases the pressure on the cellulosic material and maximizes the frictional heating until the material reaches a vaporization temperature.
