US Patent:

7853984, Dec 14, 2010

Filed:

Dec 10, 2003

Appl. No.:

10/732668

Inventors:

Richard Antell - Sherborn MA, US

Robert D. Shapiro - Arlington MA, US

Assignee:

International Classification:

G06F 7/04

US Classification:

726 2, 713182

Abstract:

Disclosed are systems and methods of authenticating a user on a network, including, based on identity information received from the user, accessing at least one data source to retrieve data associated with the user, comparing the retrieved data against a listing of possible questions associated with the retrieved data to determine associations between the retrieved data and the listing of possible questions, based on a ranking of the listing of possible questions, formulating at least one question set using questions within the listing of possible questions for which retrieved data is available, where each of the at least one question set includes at least two different questions, causing at least some of the questions from the at least one question set to be presented to the user, and, based on responses to the questions from the user, determining whether the user is authenticated.

Appl. No.:

12/436385

Robert L. Shapiro - Andover MA, US

International Classification:

US Classification:

60614, 123 70 R, 123 61 R

Abstract:

An internal combustion engine has at least two double action internal combustion cylinders and a separate double action compressor cylinder. Each double action internal combustion cylinder has a multi-point ignition system for each combustion chamber for causing multiple flame fronts to cause the fuel/air mixture to burn more quickly. Furthermore, the engine has a closed heat recovery system that takes heat from the exhaust of the internal combustion cylinder system and delivers power to a crankshaft. Accordingly, the internal combustion engine has increased efficiency by minimizing friction and extracting energy from multiple sources.

Abstract:

Lead compounds were obtained in a high throughput screen (HTS) of angiogenin (ANG; a potent inducer of angiogenesis) enzyme activity, an RNase. One lead was shown to delay appearance of tumors in an animal tumor system, and to reduce the number of animals having tumors. Several lead compound analogs were found to be even more potent inhibitors of ANG activity compared to the original leads, and two were also found to have greater affinity for ANG than for pancreatic RNase. Other embodiments disclose a method comprising obtaining a ribonuclease inhibitor and a composition; and admixing the ribonuclease inhibitor and the composition to form an admixture, wherein a ribonuclease that may be present in the admixture is inhibited.

International Classification:

G06F 1520

US Classification:

395500

Abstract:

A method and system in which a programmed digital computer serving as a graphical "engine" is employed to construct an executable model for a complex system using a hierarchy of so called "Colored" Petri nets (CPN's or CP-nets). The operation of the complex system is specified in terms of a graphical net structure and formal net inscriptions, such as arc expressions and guards, which ensure development of a program, or executable model, and associated data structures, properly defining the system. Sophisticated syntax checks and other tools are provided for ensuring that the model so constructed conforms to a set of rules which guarantee valid system behavior.

Abstract:

An inhibitor of angiogenin and method of use of the inhibitor, wherein the inhibitor inhibits the angiogenic activity of angiogenin. The inhibitor is dispensed at a suitable concentration within a physiologically compatable medium, suitable for administration to an animal in sufficient quantity to inhibit the biological activity of naturally occurring angiogenin within the animal.
