Abstract: Open architecture communication systems and methods are provided that allow flexible data transmission between gaming machines and other devices and nodes within a gaming machine network. The gaming machine and other devices employ a communication interface that sends and receives data via a common communication protocol and via common communication hardware. The communication interface and common communication protocol allow data transfer between gaming machines and other network nodes such as gaming service servers, despite the presence of different proprietary gaming machine functions and proprietary communication protocols and despite the presence of various proprietary hardware and proprietary communication protocols relied on by the servers.

Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for improved Portable Document Format (“PDF”) document archiving. The method includes scanning a source PDF document for a shared resource. The source PDF document includes a plurality of records. The shared resource includes a common resource referenced by way of a resource pointer associated with a record of the source PDF document. The method includes copying the shared resource to a resource group associated with the source PDF document. The method also includes short-circuiting a link between content for the shared resource and the resource pointer in each record that points to the shared resource. The method includes extracting a record from the source PDF document. The extracted record is void of content for the shared resource in response to the short-circuited link. Thus, records may be stored in a standalone format without excessive storage space requirements.

Abstract translation: 公开了用于改进便携式文档格式（“PDF”）文档归档的装置，系统和方法。 该方法包括扫描共享资源的源PDF文档。 源PDF文档包括多个记录。 共享资源包括通过与源PDF文档的记录相关联的资源指针引用的公共资源。 该方法包括将共享资源复制到与源PDF文档相关联的资源组。 该方法还包括将共享资源的内容与指向共享资源的每个记录中的资源指针之间的链接短路。 该方法包括从源PDF文档中提取记录。 所提取的记录对于响应于短路链路的共享资源的内容而言是无效的。 因此，记录可以以独立的格式存储，而不需要过多的存储空间要求。

Abstract: A method of improving the speed with which a sample such as a biometric sample can be fuzzily matched against records in a database, comprises extracting characteristics from the sample, and using those extracted characteristics as indexes (70) to address a lookup table (25). Each row within the lookup table points to an individual record occurrence list (28, 30, 32) which contain details of not only the stored records from which the given characteristic can be extracted, but also those records having an extracted characteristic which are within a defined proximity to the said characteristic. Characteristics are extracted from the sample record, and a given stored record is identified as being a possible match with the sample if it appears in a required number of record occurrence lists.

Abstract translation: 提高诸如生物特征样本的样本与数据库中的记录模糊匹配的速度的方法包括从样本中提取特征，并且使用那些提取的特征作为索引（70）来寻址查找表（25） 。 查找表内的每一行都指向一个单独的记录发生列表（28,30,32），其中不仅包含可从中提取给定特征的所存储的记录的细节，还包括具有提取特征的记录， 定义为与所述特征的接近。 从样本记录中提取特征，并且如果出现在所需数量的记录发生列表中，则将给定的存储记录识别为与样本的可能匹配。

Abstract: An animal identification and security system and method assigns an identifying code uniquely associated with each system member and each animal owned by the member. An identification code imprinted on a marker attached to the animal includes information uniquely identifying the animal's owner including a two letter abbreviation of the state of residence, a numerical identifier of the county of residence, and an assigned number designating the owner's ranch/farm within the indicated county. The identification code further includes a letter designation of the type of animal and the individual animal's number within the owner's herd/flock, as well as a two letter designation of the animal's country of origin. The identifying codes are maintained in a computerized system at a central location for dissemination on a global information network for facilitating the return of lost or stolen animals to the rightful owner and to indicate the origin of all registered animals.

Abstract: A computer-based design framework for collaborative design of a product by distributed design team members. The design framework comprises: a virtual database management system, which receives data from a plurality of distinct sources and creates a single relational database interface to each of the distinct sources; software code associated with the virtual database management system for mapping various informational structures utilized by the distinct sources to a common XML syntax; and additional logic associated with the virtual database management system that provides publishing rules for extracting information on demand and publishing the extracted information in a format recognized by a requestor of the information. When the product is a system on a chip (SOC) a special set of functions are generated that enable platform-independent application and services exchange utilizing XML wrapped data, service, and applications.
