Formal methods for modeling and analysis of hybrid systems |
August 11, 2009 |
| A technique based on the use of a quantifier elimination decision procedure for real closed fields and simple theorem proving to construct a series of successively finer qualitative abstractions of hybrid automata is taught. The resulting abstractions are always discrete transition s |

System and method using information-based indicia for securing and authenticating transactions |
October 3, 2006 |
| A method, system, and apparatus for authenticating transactions and records is disclosed. A nonce stamp is a physical article that is relatively difficult to copy illicitly, and that bears a "nonce" number. The "nonce" is a relatively unique identifier, in that it is chosen from a di |
