View page
US Patent:
20040039705, Feb 26, 2004
Filed:
Dec 20, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/326743
Inventors:
Mark Svancarek - Redmond WA, US
Sunil Swami - Sammamish WA, US
Sean Emam - Woodinville WA, US
Assignee:
Microsoft Corporation
International Classification:
G06F017/60
US Classification:
705/051000
Abstract:
A portal obtains information from a customer for providing a product key for activating a product to such customer. The obtained information identifies the product for which the product key is required. The portal sends the obtained information to an eligibility service which determines whether the customer is eligible to obtain the product key. If so, the eligibility service determines and identifies to the portal a type of product key to be provided to the customer. The portal redirects the customer to a distributor to obtain the identified type of product key, where the redirection includes the identified type of product key to be provided to the customer. The distributor conducts an online transaction with the customer to provide the identified type of product key thereto.

US Patent:
20060288422, Dec 21, 2006
Filed:
Jun 21, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/157886
Inventors:
Yue Liu - Issaquah WA, US
Caglar Gunyakti - Sammamish WA, US
Andrew Ritz - Sammamish WA, US
Todd Haugen - Clyde Hill WA, US
Stephanie Ybarra - Issaquah WA, US
Douglas Thompson - Bothell WA, US

Joshua Kriesberg - Seattle WA, US
John Olsson - Kirkland WA, US
Allen Nieman - Redmond WA, US
Assignee:
Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA
International Classification:
H04N 7/16
US Classification:
726026000
Abstract:
Systems and methods for software licensing enforcement using an ACPI BIOS. A digital license is provided that includes information about both the software and hardware on which it is to be run. The licensing process receives hardware and software information from the end user and binds the license to both. A main BIOS binary contains code and static motherboard specific data. Dynamic state values containing, e.g., machine-specific system management data, such as, a serial number may be stored subsequently on NVRAM or its equivalent. The main BIOS binary allows provides sufficient functionality to test the hardware. Once the software to be loaded on the system is known, a corresponding digital license containing both the software and hardware information is loaded to NVRAM.

System For Partner Engagement In Commercial Distribution Of Digital Porducts

US Patent:
20080183591, Jul 31, 2008
Filed:
Jan 31, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/700418
Inventors:
Hakan Olsson - Kirkland WA, US
Alex A. Kipman - Duvall WA, US
Joshua Kriesberg - Seattle WA, US
Mark Svancarek - Redmond WA, US
Assignee:
Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA
International Classification:
G06Q 30/00
US Classification:
705 26
Abstract:
A developer of digital products can provide one or more digital products for sale to a user, some of which are not purchased or active. Subsequently, when a user desires to purchase such digital products, only a license file needs to be provided to the user. To encourage such bundling, the bundler, such as a hardware manufacturer can include identifiers to enable a referral payment to be paid to the manufacturer. Similarly, identifiers of a merchant of record can be included to direct the user to a specific merchant for the sale. To streamline the management of digital licenses, an authorized merchant can be used to provide digital licenses upon purchase, even if the sale was completed with a merchant of record.

Secure Transfer Of Product-Activated Software To A New Machine Using A Genuine Server

View page
US Patent:
20080276321, Nov 6, 2008
Filed:
May 2, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/743476
Inventors:
Mark K. Svancarek - Redmond WA, US
Caglar Gunyakti - Sammamish WA, US
Assignee:
Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA
International Classification:
G06F 7/04
US Classification:
726 26
Abstract:
Systems and methods for secure transfer of product-activated software are disclosed. A user may request a license transfer from an original machine to a new machine. The request cause the machine identity and proof of purchase from the original machine to be sent to an activation service. The activation service may add the proof of purchase to a transfer list and mark as invalid the existing association between the original machine identity and the proof of purchase. The activation service may push the transfer list to a genuine service, which may issue a revocation certificate to the original machine. The proof of purchase may then be applied to the new machine. The activation service may create a new association between the identity of the new machine and the proof of purchase, and deliver a perpetual license certificate to the new machine.

Image Transfer Between Processing Devices

View page
US Patent:
20110010710, Jan 13, 2011
Filed:
Jul 10, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/501394
Inventors:
Glenn T. Thrush - Kirkland WA, US
Wendy Ann Chruch - Redmond WA, US
Mark Kyle Svancarek - Redmond WA, US
Assignee:
Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA
International Classification:
G06F 9/455
G06F 12/16
US Classification:
718 1, 711162, 711E12103
Abstract:
Methods and devices are provided for copying an image of a medium of a first processing device to a virtual medium of a second processing device. Virtual machine configuration information may be created based on hardware configuration information from the first processing device. The image and the virtual machine configuration information may be copied, or written, to the virtual medium. Instructions may be provided to the second processing device for launching a virtual machine to execute an operating system copied from the image to the virtual medium. At least one executable application copied from the image to the virtual medium may be executed by the virtual machine launched on the second processing device. In some embodiments, the second processing device may provide remote access to the virtual machine for one or more remote processing devices.

System And Method For Dynamic Data Packet Configuration

View page
US Patent:
57245584, Mar 3, 1998
Filed:
Jul 31, 1995
Appl. No.:
8/509364
Inventors:
Mark K. Svancarek - Redmond WA
Manolito E. Adan - Woodinville WA
Michael W. Van Flandern - Redmond WA
Hajime Suzuki - Kanagawa-ken, JP
Assignee:
Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA
International Classification:
G06F 314
US Classification:
395500
Abstract:
A digital joystick coupled to a conventional computer game port tests for the presence of electrical circuitry to support two joysticks and dynamically configures the digital data for transmission to button inputs for either one or two joysticks in the game port. The digital joystick configures the data for transmission to three or more button input lines on the game ports if it detects the second joystick circuitry, and configures the data for transmission to only two button inputs corresponding to the first joystick if it does not detect the second joystick circuitry. The digital joystick generates a clock which is coupled to one button input in the game port. The remaining button inputs are used to transfer data. Within the computer, the system determines the presence of electrical circuitry for the second joystick and is configured to accept data from both joystick inputs that are active. The computer is configured to accept data from only the first joystick if the second joystick input is not active.

Input Device For Providing Multi-Dimensional Position Coordinate Signals To A Computer

US Patent:
56941536, Dec 2, 1997
Filed:
Jul 31, 1995
Appl. No.:
8/509082
Inventors:
Tetsuji Aoyagi - Kanagawa, JP
Takeshi Miura - Aomori, JP
Hajime Suzuki - Kanagawa, JP
Russell I. Sanchez - Seattle WA
Mark K. Svancarek - Redmond WA
Toru Suzuki - Kanagawa, JP
Mike M. Paull - Seattle WA
Assignee:
Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA
International Classification:
G09G 508
US Classification:
345161
Abstract:
A user input system for inputting computer signals, such as a joystick, has an elongated member or handle that is movably received by a housing. The handle is capable of moving in at least three perpendicular directions, i. e. , along X, Y and Z axes, and is capable of being rotated about at least one of the three axes. In a first embodiment, a pair of light emitting diodes ("LEDs") are mounted at an end of the handle and oriented toward the interior of the housing. The LEDs are strobed to alternately project light downward into the housing. A light detecting element, such as a two-dimensional position sensing device ("PSD"), two one-dimension PSDs, or a four quadrant photodiode, is positioned opposite the LEDs, and mounted to the housing to receive the light from the LEDs to produce signals. The signals are converted from analog to digital and input to a microprocessor. The microprocessor, employing trigonometric methods, calculates the position and orientation (i. e.
