US Patent:

6342053, Jan 29, 2002

Filed:

Feb 8, 1994

Appl. No.:

08/192979

Inventors:

Michael J. Berry - The Woodlands TX

Assignee:

Laser Biotech, Inc. - Fremont CA

International Classification:

A61F 9013

US Classification:

606 5, 606 3, 606 10, 606 13, 606 27

Abstract:

An apparatus is described for use in combination with a noninvasive ophthalmological method for cornea reshaping in order to correct ocular refractive errors such as myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), and astigmatism. This apparatus is called a coupler and it is made of a material which is substantially transparent to the light energy used to reshape the cornea. The coupler conducts heat from the anterior portion of the cornea during the heating of the stroma by the light energy. The reshaping is enhanced by the coupler as it has a corneal engaging surface with a radius of curvature which approximates the desired emmetropic shape of the cornea. In addition to being a heat sink and template for the eye, the coupler also acts as a positioner and restrainer of the eye by attaching itself to the eye via an annular suction ring. Finally, the coupler also acts as a mask to prevent accidental exposure of the central optic zone to any light energy during the cornea reshaping procedure.

Filed:

Apr 25, 2001

Appl. No.:

09/842267

Inventors:

Carl Gunter - Philadelphia PA, US
Michael Berry - Philadelphia PA, US
David Ruggieri - Flourtown PA, US

International Classification:

H04L009/00
H04K001/00

US Classification:

713/168000, 380/247000, 380/270000

Abstract:

A method and system expedite delegation of at least one permission over a personal area network. Pregenerated values representing at least a portion of data required to create a digital signature are created on a computer. The values are transferred to a delegation device. The values are used in creating a digital signature on the delegation device. A delegator delegates to a delegates the permission over the personal area network while physical presence exists between the delegator and the delegatee. The permission is represented using a digital signature and comprise authority to access services.

Appl. No.:

09/841733

Inventors:

Michael Berry - Philadelphia PA, US
Carl Gunter - Philadelphia PA, US
Michael McDougall - Philadelphia PA, US

International Classification:

H04L009/32

US Classification:

713/201000, 713/176000

Abstract:

A method and system manage access to services. Permission relating to the services is delegated over an ad hoc network in a personal area network. The permission is represented using a digital signature. Data representing credential information is received from a permitted delegatee via a credential transmission mechanism, such as a URL, a cookie within an http request, or a header of an http request for a web page, over a second computer network. Access to the services is provided over the second computer network.

Filed:

Mar 5, 2002

Appl. No.:

10/090681

Inventors:

Carl Gunter - Philadelphia PA, US
Michael Berry - Philadelphia PA, US
Robert Levas - Mount Laurel NJ, US

International Classification:

G06F007/00

US Classification:

713/201000

Abstract:

A method and system for manipulating permissions are disclosed. A first permission, including a label related to a service accessible via a service web server, is maintained at a permission web server. A second user is provided access to the first permission upon his authenticating to the permission web server and is provided a permission to access the service. The second user will be given access to the service, upon his requesting access to the service and supplying the permission, if the digital signatures in the permission are positively verified. The second user may, instead of seeking access to the service himself, delegate permission to do so to a subsequent user.

International Classification:

H04L009/00

US Classification:

713/158000

Abstract:

An administrative user is authenticated to a server and authorized to delegate permission to a user to access an application. A request from the administrative user to delegate permission to the user is received at the server. A request from the user to register with the server is received at the server. The user is provided access to the application. The administrative user authenticates the user with non-secret information. The communications take place over a computer network.

Lai Wei - Memphis TN, US

International Classification:

G06F 19/00

US Classification:

702019000, 702020000

Abstract:

A semantic gene classification and annotation system, method and computer program can utilize Latent Semantic Indexing (LSI) to identify conceptually related genes based on textual information in biomedical literature, including MEDLINE citations. In addition, term weights calculated from the usage of the gene terms in and across gene documents can be used to automatically assign gene aliases and extend gene function annotation based upon primary biomedical literature.
