The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for assisting with automated task management. In one embodiment, an apparatus for assisting a user in the execution of a task, where the task includes one or more workflows required to accomplish a goal defined by the user, includes a task learner for creating new workflows from user demonstrations, a workflow tracker for identifying and tracking the progress of a current workflow executing on a machine used by the user, a task assistance processor coupled to the workflow tracker, for generating a suggestion based on the progress of the current workflow, and a task executor coupled to the task assistance processor, for manipulating an application on the machine used by the user to carry out the suggestion.

Method and apparatus for automated assistance with task management

A system and method for authenticating an individual item of a manufactured product with a mobile computing device includes generating a first identifier including an at least partially random visual feature on the item during manufacture of the item, and generating a second identifier associated with the item, where the second identifier is cryptographically related to the first identifier. One or more digital images of the first and second identifiers may be created by a camera of the mobile computing device. The digital images may be used to validate the authenticity of the item at the mobile computing device.

System and method for authenticating a manufactured product with a mobile device

A method and apparatus for monitoring and detecting strings of interest to effect intrusion detection, packet filtering, load balancing, routing, and other network-related operations.

Method and apparatus for processing network packets

Biological and chemical systems are represented as a symbolic model. Minimal sets of elements of the system are identified from the model, for example, by automatic inference. The model can be constructed from Boolean propositions that are mapped to a binary decision diagram. The model can also be probed using a branch and bound algorithm.
