Embodiments of the present invention provide a beverage serving tray capable of coupling multiple beverage serving trays to increase overall beverage capacity of the resulting coupled beverage serving tray. The beverage serving tray is capable of stacking with other beverage serving trays in an efficient and space saving fashion or may be stored preloaded with beverage vessels for quick and efficient preparation prior to serving. The beverage serving tray comprises a main body having a top member and bottom member, and at least one joining member joining the bottom surface to the top member. The top member includes beverage openings to accept beverages, as well as to couple additional beverage serving trays to increase beverage capacity. Multiple beverage serving trays may be coupled together by inserting beverages through aligned beverage openings of adjacent beverage serving trays in order to form a modular beverage serving tray with an increased overall carrying capacity.

Modular beverage serving tray

A method and an apparatus for providing a configurable, object-oriented, protocol-neutral interface between a physical device and a server. The method includes coupling an application gateway with the physical device, where the application gateway includes a protocol gateway module configured for physical communication with the physical device, and an object adapter module configured for virtual communication between the physical device and a client application running on a server. The method further includes configuring a service starter to launch and bind the object adapter module with the protocol gateway module, configuring the protocol gateway module to define the physical interface between the physical device and the protocol gateway, and establishing communication between the protocol gateway module and the physical device, such that the physical device is exposed as a network device on the server.

This invention relates to a portable locking device having a wireless transmitter that transmits the condition of the locking device to the receiver of a security system. The locking device comprises non-rigid cable so that it can be easily connected to various objects. Cutting the cable triggers prevents power from reaching the wireless transmitter, and the lack of signal triggers the security system to issue an alarm. The portable locking device comprises parallel armed and disarmed circuits to supply electricity to the wireless transmitter, but the armed circuit is broken if the lock is tampered with or compromised when locked.
