| 20140298265 | PHOTO-REVIEW CREATION - Photo-reviews provide an aesthetically pleasing and rich review experience resulting in greater comprehension and understanding of a reviewable item. In addition to providing a richer review format that is aesthetically pleasing, photo-reviews may be associated with a ranking provided by a user. Users that give particular items a particular ranking may be recommended to view reviews by users that rank items in a similar manner. Reviews that are ranked the same may be compared with one another, such that no two review have the same ranking. | 10-02-2014 |
| 20150256568 | PHOTO-REVIEW CREATION - Photo-reviews provide an aesthetically pleasing and rich review experience resulting in greater comprehension and understanding of a reviewable item. In addition to providing a richer review format that is aesthetically pleasing, photo-reviews can also increase the number of inquiring users that find and ultimately view the photo-review. For example, many search engines utilize a search algorithm that prioritizes results including images over results that do not include an image. As a result, photo-reviews can receive a higher search ranking leading to more overall views by inquiring users. To promote including a photo in a review, pre-associated images relating to a reviewable item can also be provided to the user. Pre-associated images can be images known to be of or relating to a reviewable item. A reviewing user can select to include one or more of the pre-associated images in their photo-review, thereby simplifying creation of the photo-review for the user. | 09-10-2015 |

| 20130157007 | TEXTURED SURFACES AND METHODS OF MAKING AND USING SAME - Described herein are various methods for making textured articles, textured articles that have improved fingerprint resistance, and methods of using the textured articles. The methods generally make use of masks comprising nanostructured metal-containing features to produce textured surfaces that also comprise nanostructured features. These nanostructured features in the textured surfaces can render the surfaces hydrophobic and oleophobic, thereby beneficially providing the articles with improved fingerprint resistance relative to similar or identical articles that lack the texturing. | 06-20-2013 |

| 20100299298 | METHOD FOR MAKING OPTIMAL SELECTIONS BASED ON MULTIPLE OBJECTIVE AND SUBJECTIVE CRITERIA - A method for making optimal decisions includes the ability to consider and weigh multiple factors, where those factors might be numeric, or non-numeric, objective or subjective. Further, the method ensures that factors are not prematurely eliminated. This contrasts with behavior common to decision-tree based approaches. The method further allows for weighting based on multiple statistical means as well as by the application of non-statistical values. | 11-25-2010 |
| 20100299333 | METHOD FOR IMPROVING THE EFFECTIVENESS OF HASH-BASED DATA STRUCTURES - A method to improve the effectiveness of hash-based data structures includes configuration of a data structure and transformation of hash codes as produced by a hash function, to yield a more uniform distribution of data amongst the slots in a data structure. Transformation results in a non-uniform but predictable distribution of hash codes. Configuration exploits the predictable nature of the transformed hash codes to accomplish more uniform and therefore more efficient distribution of items stored in a hash-based data structure. | 11-25-2010 |
| 20100299362 | METHOD FOR CONTROLLING ACCESS TO DATA CONTAINERS IN A COMPUTER SYSTEM - A method for controlling access to stored objects in a computer system is provided that is both powerful and flexible, and minimizes complexity to the user. The method may apply to logical containers of objects and supports arbitrary configurations of logical containers, including nests and hierarchies. The method extends beyond the simple notion of permission, to include not only operation-oriented rights, but more complex and possibly dynamic access conditions, criteria and rules. The method provides for association of actions to be triggered and performed, optionally, in relation to access or attempted access to stored objects. | 11-25-2010 |
| 20100306269 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR LARGE SCALE DATA STORAGE - A logical apparatus and associated methods provide highly scalable and flexible data storage in a network of computers. The apparatus provides flexible organizational and access control mechanisms and a practical and efficient way to work with smaller portions of a data storage system at a given time to enable sparse population, caching, paging and related functions. A data structure, called a virtual container, comprises references to objects stored in a data storage system such that the same object can be visible from different virtual containers, if such virtual containers hold references to said object. Access controls further enhance the effectiveness of the methods and structures to enable multiple simultaneous organizational schemes and selective sharing of objects. Participating nodes provide access to objects stored on said nodes and their participating peer nodes, employing the data storage apparatus, such that balance in the network is achieved by data placement decisions that may combine common constraints and a node's individual self interest. | 12-02-2010 |
| 20100306371 | METHOD FOR MAKING INTELLIGENT DATA PLACEMENT DECISIONS IN A COMPUTER NETWORK - A method for making data placement decisions in a computer network uses multiple factors comprising social rules (rules, factors and criteria common to all participating nodes and intended to benefit the community of nodes), as well as rules, factors and criteria driven by individual self-interest of the participating nodes. The method calls for each node to act in a semi-autonomous manner, without the need for a central coordinating node. By considering multiple factors fully, and not eliminating factors by a sequence of True/False decisions, the method may arrive at optimal decisions and may generate a ranked list of node candidates. | 12-02-2010 |
| 20130031549 | VIRTUAL ACCESS TO NETWORK SERVICES - Methods, systems, and computer readable storage media for providing virtual access to network services. A virtual storage layer contains reference objects configured to reference network services stored in a network computing environment. Network clients access the reference objects through a resource interface based on a resource identifier associated with the virtual storage layer. Initiation of the virtual service by a network client invokes the service in a native computing environment of the service. | 01-31-2013 |
