A method and/or system for providing grace licensing to disconnected network license users provides a server with a grace enabled license having a grace criteria, provides a client computer with an application operable with the grace enabled license, provides the grace enabled license from the server to the client computer when the client computer is communicatively connected to the server, and operates the application on the client computer according to the grace criteria when the client computer is disconnected from the server. The grace criteria can include a parameter(s) including a number of times the application is operable on a client computer when the client computer is disconnected from the server, a total number of hours the application is operable on a client computer when the client computer is disconnected, and/or a maximum number of days the application is operable on a client computer when the client computer is disconnected.

A system and method for the issuance of software licenses through a tiered structure, whereby a software license is issued from a software developer to an end user through one or more intermediate layers of distribution. The system and method for doing so enforces a predefined security policy. In an embodiment of the invention, the security policy is defined by the security developer. The security policy may, for example, address who may use the software package, how many users there may be, an expiration date for use of the software, and/or specific features that may or may not be used by a particular user. The software developer first issues a license template to the next intermediate layer of distribution. This may be a software distributor, who then specifies one or more restrictions on the use of the software. This is done be articulating these restrictions in the license template, effectively “filling in” some or all of the template. Any such embellishment of the software license template must be in accordance with the security policy. In the final transaction, a final distributor transmits a completed software license to a user. At no time can an intermediate distributor issue a license or template that is less restrictive than what is dictated by the security policy, or less restrictive than the template given to the distributor.

A method for preventing unauthorized use of a software program on a computing device includes updating a state of a software program on a computing device to an updated state. Transmitting an update signal from the software program to a hardware token coupled to the computing device and updating a state of the hardware token to an updated state in response to the received update signal. Performing a first cryptographic check using the updated state of the software program and the updated state of the hardware token with the hardware token. Transmitting the first cryptographic check from the hardware token to the software program and performing a second cryptographic check using the state of the hardware token and the state of the software program with the computing device. Comparing the second cryptographic check to the first cryptographic check with the computing device, and preventing the software program from running on the computing device if the first cryptographic check does not match the second cryptographic check.

An apparatus is provided for implementation of a system for assessing traffic through a multiple stage switch network. The apparatus may receive an indication of traffic to be routed through a multiple stage switch network configured to route the traffic from one or more input ports to one or more output ports according to a type of the traffic. The apparatus may calculate a network resource requirement of the traffic based on the input port(s), output port(s) and type of the traffic. Here, the network resource requirement may be calculated according to an algorithm specific to the type of the traffic, but generalized to any specific route of the traffic through the multiple stage switch network. And the apparatus may assess the traffic based on a comparison of a capacity of the multiple stage switch network, and the network resource requirement of the traffic.

An inflatable photo booth, including in-wall lighting, supplemental lighting, monitor and controls is provided for facilitation of photography. The photo booth, and all supplemental lighting and controls is easily transported. The various lighting fixtures included with the booth are controlled by a hand held controller that allows a user to adjust the color and illumination intensity of the light used for taking photographs of the user. Controller, and/or a separate processor, may be connected to a network so that that the photographs taken may be communicated via email or posted to social media.

A method using a computer in conjunction with a non-transitory computer readable storage medium is provided comprising a computer receiving a message for forwarding at an ingress switch of a multi-stage circuit switching network. The method also comprises computer executing a first routing algorithm in transmitting the message, the algorithm comprising the computer determining at least one availability matrix for each middle switch, wherein a given middle switch comprises a switch between ingress and egress switches of the network. The method also comprises the computer assigning resources to a selected middle switch and updating the availability matrix and causing the ingress switch to transmit the message via the middle switch based on determining a first availability matrix for the middle switch using the algorithm wherein the algorithm is executed to forward messages on at least one of unicast, fan-in, and fan-out bases and minimize blocking and imbalance on middle switches.
