    Abstract: A computer implemented method for searching resources via a Web application (e.g. a portal, user interface) includes associating a resource (pictures, video, sound etc.) with at least one resource type (e.g. hotel, car, book, etc.). A first search request is initiated via a search engine interface 808. A search result based on the first search request and associated resource types are received. The received associated resource types are mapped to at least one class of user interface controls (e.g. interactive elements in a portal adapted to receive user commands, sliders 810, checkboxes 812), resulting in at least one selected group of classes of user interface controls. The at least one selected group of classes of user interface controls is dynamically mapped to a corresponding instance of user interface controls and rendered together with the search result into a faceted user interface 802 (e.g. multi-criteria filtering). After receiving input via the rendered instances of the user interface controls, the received search results are filtered and rendered together with the faceted search interface.

    Abstract: The invention proposes storing a token 332 and possibly an application 312 on a mobile device 301 that interact 340-350 with an access point/verification server 302 equivalents 324,334. The storing may be part of a registration process (eg. on a website).The token may include an identification key, mobile device capabilities and user personal information (name, age, gender etc.). A history of access point logins may also be saved to the token, to allow access points to track the device/user.If the user token provides the necessary 354 information items 340, then a response 342 confirming access is provided. This results in human recognisable indication of the connection on the mobile device. This indication may be an advertisement or a coupon.The data from the token may be transmitted through a transport layer security (TLS) encrypted tunnel.

    Abstract: The invention provides for a computer system (300, 400), comprising a device register (320, 410) for creating and registering one or more device objects (322, 324, 326, 412). At least one device object of the one or more device objects is configured for communicating with a network connector (404) of a sensor appliance (306, 308, 310, 402) via a network connection (312, 414). The device object is configured for exposing at least one parameter of the sensor appliance by declaring its capabilities. The computer system further comprises an aggregation model (334, 422) for aggregating the at least one parameter of the at least one device objects; a set (340, 416) of wiring definitions descriptive of raised events created by changes or updates in the at least one parameter; and a wiring broker (328, 420) for updating the aggregation model in accordance with the raised events.

    Abstract: A system for exchange of data between a plurality of clients and at least one back end data store by using a central synchronization server having a connection to the clients. The clients generate data to be synchronized. The system includes a sync engine connected to the central synchronization server for performing synchronization with the central synchronization server, a single back end neutral interface associated with and connected to the sync engine, and a component assigned to each of the at least one back end data store. Each of the components include a back end dependent part having an interface with the single back end neutral interface and an interface with the assigned back end data store.

    Abstract: The authentication method has a hash value (40) provided by a transmission device (15) received by a reception device (10) and compared with a hash value (80) of the reception device, both hash values provided via a hash value algorithm (70) using identification data provided by the transmission device and a common security value. Also included are Independent claims for the following: (a) a client in a client-server architecture provided with an authentication system; (b) a server in a client-server architecture provided with an authentication system; (c) a transmission device incorporating an authentication system; (d) a computer program product providing a software code for an authentication method
