Techniques are provided for managing the transfer of data over a network. Multiple channels may be established for accommodating various categories of data transfers, and the amount of network bandwidth allocated to each channel may be dynamically adjusted to accommodate any of numerous performance objectives.

Methods and apparatus for transporting data on a network

Systems and methods are disclosed for delivering programming content to vehicles (e.g., seagoing vessels) in a cost-effective manner. In some embodiments, programming content may be delivered to vehicles over previously deployed networks (e.g., satellite networks), using excess network capacity which may not otherwise be used to deliver data. By opportunistically employing excess network capacity (e.g., as the capacity becomes available), data constituting programming content may be delivered to vehicles over a period of time, such as via multicast transmission. A vehicle may store received data on one or more onboard servers. After an item of programming content has been received, the item may be made accessible to the vehicle's crew and/or passengers, such as by streaming the item to one or more suitably configured playback devices. Content may be served to playback devices 'on demand' and/or according to a programming schedule.

System and methods for providing content to vehicles

The invention relates to an apparatus and method for extracting vibration data from a moving drive chain. In the preferred embodiment, the chain is that of a bicycle, or similar pedaled machine such as an indoor stationery bicycle, with two or more sensors placed on the chainstay of the bicycle to measure the vibrational frequency of the chain. Such vibration data can be used to determine the tension of the chain, and may also further compute the power transmitted by the chain, in conjunction with the measurement of chain speed. The invention provides a method and apparatus for conditioning and filtering the signals from the vibration sensors, as well as an arrangement for positioning the sensors on the bicycle.

Methods and systems for executing an electronic transaction are provided, including parsing pages of a web server that execute a transaction to separate static from transactional content, identifying and storing rules for executing a transaction on the site, and presenting displays that enable a user to complete the transaction without interacting directly with the site, such as by interacting with a banner ad, electronic mail, cellular phone, or other simple interface.
