International Business Machines Assigned Patent for Method and Apparatus for Data Redundancy Elimination at the Block Level
ALEXANDRIA, Va., March 14 -- International Business Machines, Armonk, N.Y., has been assigned a patent (8,135,683) developed by four co-inventors for a "method and apparatus for data redundancy elimination at the block level." The co-inventors are Frederick Douglis, Basking Ridge, N.J., Purushottam Kulkarni, Amherst, Mass., Jason D. LaVoie, Mahopac, N.Y., and John Michael Tracey, Scarsdale, N.Y.
The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: "A redundancy elimination mechanism is provided, which applies aspects of duplicate block elimination and delta encoding at the block level. The redundancy elimination mechanism divides file objects into content-defined blocks or "chunks." Identical chunks are suppressed. The redundancy elimination mechanism also performs resemblance detection on remaining chunks to identify chunks with sufficient redundancy to benefit from delta encoding of individual chunks. Any remaining chunks that do not benefit from delta encoding are compressed. Resemblance detection is optimized by merging groups of fingerprints into super fingerprints. This merging can be constructed to ensure that if two objects have a single super fingerprint in common, they are extremely likely to be substantially similar."
The patent application was filed on Dec. 16, 2003 (10/737,213). The full-text of the patent can be found at http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&Sect2=HITOFF&d=PALL&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.htm&r=1&f=G&l=50&s1=8,135,683.PN.&OS=PN/8,135,683&RS=PN/8,135,683

A client's first partition receives a workstation image deployed from a server in communication with the client via a network. The image includes a customization script. The server remotely boots the client, which is pre-configured to be booted by the server via the network. The server writes a customization parameter to the client's shared partition. The shared partition has a file system type that is accessible by the server via the remote boot and by the deployed image. One or more subsequent reboots of the client include the deployed image obtaining the customization parameter from the shared partition, identifying the customization script by using the customization parameter, and executing the customization script to automatically customize the client."
The patent application was filed on April 27, 2007 (11/741,035). The full-text of the patent can be found at http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO2&Sect2=HITOFF&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsearch-bool.html&r=1&f=G&l=50&co1=AND&d=PTXT&s1=8,135,813.PN.&OS=PN/8,135,813&RS=PN/8,135,813

Xerox Assigned Patent
ALEXANDRIA, Va., March 14 -- Xerox, Norwalk, Conn., has been assigned a patent (8,135,656) developed by Eugene S. Evanitsky, Pittsford, N.Y., for an "online management service for identification documents which prompts a user for a category of an official document."
The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: "An online identification document management service includes a host server having a web-based interface adapted to facilitate secure customer access to the host server. The host server is configured to receive identification data communicated from the customer through use of a computing device. The identification data includes at least one of an imaged identification document and information related to the imaged identification document. A processing module is in operative communication with the host server and is configured to process the identification data communicated from the customer. A processing software application is trained to classify the processed identification data and selectively extract data therefrom based on the classification. The processing software application is configured to selectively present the processed identification data for a customer verification via the web-based interface upon at least one of an unsuccessful classification and an unsuccessful extraction of data. A storage device is in operative communication with the processing module and is configured to store the extracted data as metadata upon at least one of the customer verification and the extraction of data. The processing software application is cumulatively trained to subsequently classify the processed identification data successfully upon the customer verification thereof. A content management software application operates on the host server and is configured to process a customer request through the web-based interface to selectively generate at least one reproduction of the processed identification data."
The patent application was filed on April 22, 2008 (12/107,378). The full-text of the patent can be found at http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&Sect2=HITOFF&d=PALL&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsrchnum.htm&r=1&f=G&l=50&s1=8,135,656.PN.&OS=PN/8,135,656&RS=PN/8,135,656
