| Application No. | Application Title | Issue Date |
| 20110004677 | System and method for Implementing PNRP Locality A method is provided for a host node in a computer network to determine its coordinates in a d-dimensional network space, comprising discovering an address of a peer node in the network, measuring network latency between the host node and the peer node, determining whet... | 01/06/2011 |
| 20070271361 | Exceptions grouping Methods of experience-based exception grouping are described. A number of exceptions are read. The exceptions are intelligently associated with one of a number of exception groups. Each exception group corresponds to a common user experience.... | 11/22/2007 |
| 20070261067 | Winsock APIs To improve upon existing Winsock implementations, the claimed system and method adapts an existing Winsock system to use out-of-process NSP services. The claimed method and system provides asynchronous Winsock Next calls to provide client application processing flexibil... | 11/08/2007 |
| 20070250582 | Peer-to-peer buddy request and response A system for providing secure asynchronous message publishing and retrieval in a serverless environment. The system may be used on ad-hoc and segmented networks such as peer-to-peer networks. The system may provide a method of sending and storing asynchronous message re... | 10/25/2007 |
| 20070250922 | Integration of social network information and network firewalls A firewall functions normally to pass data on open ports to a respective service or endpoint associated with an open port. Invitations may sent to from an internal endpoint to an external peer-to-peer network endpoint inviting a connection back to the internal endpoint.... | 10/25/2007 |
| 20070250700 | Peer-to-peer contact exchange A system may publish authenticated contact information in a publicly available index store, retrieve the contact information, and validate it. The claimed method and system may provide a client-based, server optional approach to publishing. The publicly available index ... | 10/25/2007 |
| 20070076630 | Peer name resolution protocol simple application program interface An application program interface (API) for sending and receiving endpoint registration data and peer-to-peer network cloud data has a registration call for adding endpoint data to a peer-to-peer network. The API may receive explicit data regarding address information or... | 04/05/2007 |
| 20070061485 | Network address selection A method of determining a source address to publish and a destination address to use for a network, including a PNRP network, is disclosed such that the probability of reaching a network node without repeated re-tries is maximized. ... | 03/15/2007 |
| 20060242581 | Collaboration spaces A computer implemented method and system enable users to create a social network providing access to other users. By providing access to such networks via a visual presentation, the system renders content available for access by other network members. Access is sometime... | 10/26/2006 |
| 20060242301 | DNS compatible PNRP peer name encoding A method of converting a peer name to a PNRP DNS is disclosed. The method may take a peer name and encode it into a common DNS name. The method may also take a PNRP DNS name and convert it to a peer name. ... | 10/26/2006 |
| 20060239197 | Flower-petal resolutions for PNRP The claimed process and system provides a resolution process for a multi-level cache resolution protocol that involves a lookup procedure whereby the initiating node contacts each intermediate node directly using a communication link separate from any previous intermedi... | 10/26/2006 |
| 20060215575 | System and method for monitoring and reacting to peer-to-peer network metrics The overall health of a peer-to-peer network may be inferred from statistics gathered and analyzed pertaining to individual node and node-to-node performance within the peer-to-peer network. When used with simulations for development or testing, the health statistic may... | 09/28/2006 |
| 20060209704 | System and method for implementing PNRP locality A method is provided for a host node in a computer network to determine its coordinates in a d-dimensional network space, comprising discovering an address of a peer node in the network, measuring network latency between the host node and the peer node, determining whet... | 09/21/2006 |
