20090130971 | Method & apparatus for distributing files in a communications network - A wired portion of a communications network includes a server for storing update files and a plurality of access points for communicating with a plurality of wireless communication devices. A wireless portion of a communications network includes the access points and the plurality of wireless communications devices. Periodically, updated software files are available that can be downloaded to all of the wireless communication devices, via the access points. A single master wireless communication device determines that it needs to download updated software files and initiates the transfer of all new updated files to it. Subsequent to the master wireless device receiving the new updated files, it establishes an ad-hoc connection to a peer wireless communication device and if the peer wireless communication device does not have the new update software file, the master wireless communication device transfers the new updated software file to it. | 05-21-2009 |
20120061458 | Managing Mobile Device Interactions Using Barcodes - A system allows a connecting a mobile device with a barcode scanner to a stationary device by scanning a barcode displayed on a display of the stationary device. The system allows connecting only one mobile device to the stationary device at any given time and allows connecting the mobile device to only one stationary device at any given time. Once connected to the stationary device, the mobile device may be used to scan additional printed barcodes and barcodes displayed by the stationary device or elsewhere, sending data corresponding to the scanned barcodes to the stationary device as if the data were entered by an input device of the stationary device. The barcode scanning functionality may also allow other ways of controlling the mobile device, including performing speed dialing, call transfer, or other telephone functionality based on barcode scanning Encryption and other similar techniques may be employed for additional security. | 03-15-2012 |

20130091271 | CONNECTION METHOD - A failure of communication between a first device and a second device is managed. A failure of communication between the first device and the second device is detected at a third device intermediate. The first data is transmitted from the third device to the first device. The first data indicates that the second device is unusable by the first device. | 04-11-2013 |
20140376548 | ENCAPSULATION ENABLED PCIE VIRTUALISATION - There is herein described a method for transmitting data packets from a first device through a switch to a second device. The method is performed at an intercepting device intermediate the first device and the switch device. The method comprises receiving a first data packet from the first device, determining that the first data packet is to be transmitted to the second device and determining whether the first data packet is of a first type that can not be transmitted from the intercepting device to the second device through the switch. If it is determined that the first data packet is of the first type, the method comprises encapsulating the first data packet within a second data packet, the second data packet being of a second type that can be transmitted from the intercepting device through the switch to the second device, and transmitting the second data packet through the switch to the second device. If it is determined that the first data packet is not of the first type, the method comprises transmitting the first data packet through the switch to the second device. | 12-25-2014 |
