具体实施方式
在一个实施例中,提供有一种编码信息读取(EIR)终端,其可被编程以执行由终端用户(例如零售业)已经预支付的预定义数量的编码信息读取操作。在执行预定义数量的EIR操作之后,该EIR终端可被编程以通知该终端操作者新一批EIR操作需要从终端制造商/销售方/出租方购买。在一个实施例中,EIR终端可被编程为在达到预定义使用阈值时,例如在执行90%的预支付EIR操作后通知终端操作者。
如果终端用户在执行该预支付EIR操作后决定继续使用该EIR终端,新一批EIR操作可从终端制造商/销售方/出租方购买。在一个实施例中,新一批EIR操作可经由网络接口定购并由信用卡付费。本领域技术人员将理解实际上在本发明的精神和范围内存在预定和支付的其他方法。
由终端制造商/销售方/出租方运行的机群管理系统,可在接收对新一批EIR操作的终端用户的请求时,处理支付并产生解锁消息以编程该EIR终端从而执行预定义数量的EIR操作。该解锁消息可被加密,例如使用共享密钥或公/私密钥对。该解锁消息可被编码在要被EIR终端读取的条形码中,或可通过网络传输至该EIR终端。
根据本发明的预支付应用模型,例如对于小零售业,会是有益的,对于该小零售业,可由购买商业操作所需的机群EIR终端引起的资本支出可能是过高的。此外,根据本发明的该预支付使用模型,相比传统租赁模型,还对EIR终端制造商/销售方/出租方提供了附加优势,因为预支付使用模型本质上对终端用户提供了强的激励以对EIR终端使用进行及时支付。
图1中示出了用于管理多个EIR终端的机群管理系统的一个实施例的布局。机群管理系统1000可包括一个或多个计算机110a-110z。这里的“计算机”将涉及用于数据处理的可编程设备,包括中央处理单元(CPU)310、存储器320、以及至少一个通信接口。计算机可以例如由运行WindowsTM操作系统的个人计算机(PC)所提供。本领域技术人员将理解实际上在本发明的精神和范围内存在其他的硬件平台及操作系统。机群管理系统1000可进一步包括机群管理软件模块120,该机群管理软件模块120可由从计算机110a-110z的组中选择的一个或多个计算机来运行。机群管理软件模块可经由HTTP服务器软件模块130被最终用户(例如希望购买新批次的扫描)所访问,该HTTP服务器软件模块130可由从计算机110a-110z的组中选择的一个或多个计算机来执行。运行该HTTP服务器的计算机可以是从广域网WAN(如互联网)900可访问的。
机群管理系统1000可进一步包括支付处理软件模块140,该支付处理软件模块140可由从计算机110a-110z的组中选择的一个或多个计算机来运行。机群管理软件模块120的实例可通过使用合适的进程间通信(IPC)方法与支付处理软件模块140的实例进行通信(例如,当该两个程序的实例由不同的计算机执行时,通过局域网(LAN)500经由TCP连接进行通信,或者当两个程序的实例被一起放在同一计算机上时,在本地主机内进行通信)。在一个实施例中,支付处理软件模块140可在外部支付处理系统(图1中未示出)内例如通过WAN(例如互联网)900进行通信。
机群管理系统1000可进一步包括机群管理数据库150。在一个实施例中,机群管理数据库150可驻留于从计算机110a-110z的组中选择的一个或多个计算机。在另一个实施例中,机群管理数据库150可驻留于远离本地设施定位的一个或多个计算机中,该本地设施作为机群管理系统的其它组件的主机。在一个实施例中,机群管理数据库可由关系数据库(如OrcaleTM或DB/2TM)提供。本领域技术人员将理解实际上在本发明的精神和范围内存在其他类型的数据库。
机群管理软件模块120的实例可以使用合适的进程间通信(IPC)方法来与机群管理数据库的实例进行通信(例如,当两个程序的实例由不同的计算机所执行时通过局域网(LAN)500经由TCP连接进行通信,或者当两个程序的实例被一起放在同一计算机上时在本地主机内进行通信)。
在一个实施例中,机群管理软件模块120、HTTP服务器软件模块130、支付处理软件模块140以及机群管理数据库150可被一起放在单个计算机上。在另一个实施例中,机群管理软件模块120、HTTP服务器软件模块130、支付处理软件模块140以及机群管理数据库150驻留在不同的计算机上。在又一个实施例中,可采用若干个计算机来运行机群管理软件模块120、HTTP服务器软件模块130、支付处理软件模块140以及机群管理数据库150的多个实例来实现可扩缩性。在又一个实施例中,软件模块120、130、140和数据库150中的一些可被放在一起而其余的可驻留在不同计算机上。
在机群管理系统1000的以上描述中,软件模块120、130、140和数据库150间的功能分离仅用于说明目的。本领域技术人员将理解实际上在不背离本发明的精神和范围情况下,在这里之前所描述的软件模块120、130、140和数据库150的功能可由单个的软件模块来实现,或者可在两个或更多个软件模块中分离。
本领域技术人员还将理解的是实际上通常包括在网络应用基础结构(例如防火墙、HTTP负载平衡器、SSL加速器)中的其他软件和硬件组件在本发明的精神和范围之内。现在参照图2的流程图来描述为按照本发明的EIR终端实现预支付应用模型的方法的一个实施例。该方法可由在此之前所描述的机群管理软件模块120来实现。
在步骤200和210,该方法可等候用于处理的用户请求。在一个实施例中,该用户请求可通过基于浏览器的用户接口发起并经由HTTP服务器软件模块130传送至该机群管理软件模块120。
在步骤220,该方法可确认是否接收到用于解锁消息的请求。如果是,则该方法可继续到步骤230。
在步骤230,该方法可解析并验证用于解锁消息的请求。在一个实施例中,用于解锁消息的请求可包括图3中示意性示出的字段。
再次参考图2,在步骤240,该方法可对所请求数量的EIR操作计算支付量。在一个实施例中,该方法可查询该机群管理数据库150以确认由客户代码、终端类型或终端序列号所标识的EIR终端的EIR操作价格。在另一个实施例中,该EIR操作价格可进一步取决于使用历史、客户所采用的机群的大小、所请求EIR操作的数量和/或其它因素。
在一个实施例中,机群管理数据库150可包括表格,图4示出了表格的示例性结构。
在另一个实施例中,该方法可对所有解锁代码请求使用相同的EIR操作价格并跳过查询机群管理数据库150的步骤。
再次参考图2,在步骤250,该方法可调用支付处理软件模块140以通过使用作为解锁消息请求的一部分被提供的支付明细来处理对请求数量的EIR操作的支付。
在一个实施例中,支付处理软件模块可通过经由WAN(如因特网)900与外部支付处理系统(图1中未示出)通信来处理信用卡支付。
在步骤260该方法可确认支付是否处理成功。如果是,该处理可继续至步骤270。否则,该方法可分支到步骤265(通知用户尝试处理支付失败)并然后返回到步骤200。
在步骤270,该方法可加密该解锁消息。在一个实施例中,可使用共享密钥来执行加密。在另一个实施例中,可使用公/私密钥对(不对称密钥加密)来执行加密。本领域技术人员将理解实际上在本发明的精神和范围内存在其他加密方法。
在步骤280,该解锁消息可被编码在要被EIR终端读取的条形码中。在另一个实施例中,表示该解锁消息的比特流可由经网络被传输至EIR终端。本领域技术人员将理解实际上在本发明的精神和范围内存在传递解锁消息至EIR终端的其他方法。
在步骤290,该方法可查询机群管理数据库150以将支付事件写入日志。完成步骤290后,该方法可循环返回至步骤200。
现在参考图3描述用于解锁消息的请求的结构的一个实施例。用于解锁消息的请求的结构300包括以下字段:
-终端标识符字段312。在一个实施例中,该终端标识符可由制造商分配给EIR终端的终端序列号来提供;
-请求的EIR操作数量字段314。
在另一个实施例中,该用于解锁消息的请求的结构可进一步包括其他字段,例如客户标识符字段。
现在参考图4描述机群管理数据库表的结构的一个实施例。机群管理数据库可包括以下的表:客户机群表410、终端参数表450和支付事件日志表480。
在一个实施例中,客户机群表410可包括以下字段:
-客户标识符412;
-终端标识符414;
在一个实施例中,终端参数表450可包括以下字段:
-终端标识符452;
-终端类型字段454;
-迄今购买的EIR操作的总数量456。
在一个实施例中,价格表480可包括以下字段:
-终端类型482;
-客户机群的大小484;
-为终端迄今购买的EIR操作的总数量486;
-单个EIR操作的价格488。
在一个实施例中,支付事件日志表490包括以下字段:
-时间戳492;
-终端标识符494;
-所购买的EIR操作的数量496;
-支付量498;
-支付交易标识符499。
返回参考附图2,在步骤240,实现用于EIR终端机群的预支付使用模式的方法可以对所请求数量的EIR操作计算支付量。在一个实施例中,该方法可解析对解锁消息的请求以提取终端标识符的值,并且然后查询机群管理数据库150以确认与该终端标识符对应的客户标识符。接下来,该方法可查询机群管理数据库150以确认为正在处理请求的终端先前购买的EIR操作的数量。接下来,该方法可查询机群管理数据库150以确认客户终端机群的大小。最后,该方法可查询机群管理数据库150以确认单个EIR操作的价格,该单个EIR操作的价格在一个实施例中可取决于购买的操作数量(即,受到总额折扣)。然后支付量可通过将EIR操作的价格乘以所请求的EIR操作数量来计算得出。本领域技术人员将理解实际上在本发明的精神和范围内存在机群管理数据库150的其他结构。
现在参照附图5来描述适合于实施本发明的EIR终端的框图。EIR终端100可包括微处理器310和存储器320,两者均耦合至系统总线370,如在图5中最佳呈现的。该微处理器310可以由通用微处理器或专用微处理器(例如ASIC)来提供。在一个实施例中,EIR终端100可包括单个微处理器,该单个微处理器可称作中央处理单元(CPU)。在另一个实施例中,该EIR终端100可包括两个或更多个的微处理器,例如CPU和专用微处理器(例如ASIC)。在一个实施例中,存储器320可以由RAM、ROM、EPROM、和/或基于SIM卡的存储器所提供。
EIR终端100可进一步包括一个或更多个EIR设备315,包括也耦合至系统总线370的条形码读取设备、RFID读取设备和读卡设备。在一个实施例中,该EIR读取设备能够输出与编码消息相对应的解码消息数据。在另一个实施例中,EIR读取设备可输出包括编码消息(例如原始图像数据或原始RFID数据)的原始消息数据。
当然,读取条形码、读取RFID或读取具有编码信息的卡的设备可读取这些类别中的一个以上的类别,同时仍然在本发明的范围内。例如,读取条形码的设备可包括读卡器和/或RFID读取器;读取RFID的设备也可能能够读取条形码和/或卡;以及读卡的设备也可能能够读取条形码和/或RFID。为了更加清楚,使设备的主要功能包括任何这些功能以便被认为是这种设备是不必要的;例如,能够读取条形码的蜂窝式电话、智能电话、或PDA是针对本发明目的读取条形码的设备。
EIR终端100可进一步包括键盘接口354、显示适配器355,两者均耦合至系统总线370。该EIR终端100可进一步包括电池356。
在一个实施例中,EIR终端100可进一步包括GPS接收器380。在一个实施例中,EIR终端100可进一步包括配置为接收订户身份模块(SIM)卡的至少一个连接器390。
EIR终端100可进一步包括通信接口340,该通信接口340可以例如由符合802.11的无线通信接口所提供,或由以太网接口所提供。本领域技术人员将理解实际上在本发明的精神和范围内存在其他类型的网络接口。
在一个实施例中,EIR终端100可与连接至图1的LAN 500的计算机151通信。在一个实施例中,EIR终端100可使用符合802.11的无线通信接口经由无线接入点505连接至LAN500。在另一个实施例中,EIR终端可经由以太网接口(例如通过扩展坞)连接至LAN 500。本领域技术人员将理解实际上在本发明的精神和范围内存在将EIR终端连接至LAN 500的其他方式。
在一个实施例中,LAN 500可通过路由器600连接至WAN(如因特网)900。EIR终端可与可经由路由器157连接至因特网的远程计算机155通信。
虽然在这里指定了不同的网络,但认识到,如从OSI模型的网络层看到的单个网络可包括多个底层网络,也就是,可被当做单个的因特网协议(IP)网络的那些网络可包括多个不同的物理网络。
现在描述按照本发明的EIR终端的形状因子和外壳。EIR终端100的组件可被并入多种不同的外壳中。如图6a和6b的实施例所指示的,附图5的组件可被并入手持式外壳101中。图6a和6b的EIR终端100在手持式便携数据终端的形状因子中。如图6a和6b中所示的EIR终端100可包括键盘1090、具有关联触摸屏外罩的显示器504、读卡器1348、以及包括如在此描述的成像部件的组件的成像模块360;即,在图像传感器IC芯片上并入的图像传感器阵列。如附图6b的侧视图所指示的,图5的框图的组件可在外壳101中被支撑在多个电路板1077上。成像模块360可包括具有颜色敏感像素的图像传感器阵列,如在2005年6月3日提交的编号60/687,606、2005年6月14日提交的编号60/690,268、2005年6月22日提交的编号60/692,890、以及2005年6月27日提交的编号60/694,371的临时专利申请中所描述的,所有上述申请的标题为具有混合的单色和彩色图像传感器的数字图片拍摄光学读取器,并且其全部通过引用结合于此。
在图7a-7c的实施例中,EIR终端100是以可被配置为零售购买交易终端或价格核验器的交易终端的形式。图7a-7c中示出的交易终端的外壳102被配置成便携式的,使得其从位置到位置地移动,并且其进一步被配置成可替代地安装在固定结构上,该固定结构例如是收银台的固定结构或者零售商店楼层的固定结构。参照图7c的底视图,EIR终端100的外壳102可具有便于在固定结构上可替换安装EIR终端100的构造268。现在参照图7b,EIR终端100可包括具有关联触摸屏504T的显示器504、读卡器1348、成像模块360和发光罩362。
现在参考图8中描绘的流程图来描述按照本发明的由EIR终端所实现的预支付使用模式的方法的一个实施例。
在步骤810和820,该方法可等待由终端操作者输入的指令。
在步骤830,该方法可确认是否尝试EIR操作。如果是,该方法可继续到步骤840。
在步骤840,该方法可确认EIR操作的计数器的值是否大于0。如果是,该方法可继续至步骤860。否则,该方法可分支至步骤850以通知EIR终端操作者尝试的EIR操作不能被执行,除非新一批的EIR操作将被预支付。
在步骤860,该方法可执行由终端操作者所请求的EIR操作。
在步骤870,该方法可使EIR操作的计数器的值减量,该EIR操作计数器的值可被储存在非易失存储器中。完成步骤后,该方法循环返回到步骤810。
在由EIR终端所实现预支付使用模式的方法的另一个实施例中,EIR操作的计数器可被初始化为0,在每一次尝试的EIR操作前增量,并且可与预支付操作的数量进行比较以确认尝试的EIR操作是否能被允许。
依据接收到尝试的EIR操作不能被允许的通知(或者依据接收到更早的通知,例如,已达到预支付操作阈值的90%),操作者可订购用于新一批EIR操作的解锁消息。在一个实施例中,该解锁消息可以以条形码的形式传递至EIR终端。在一个实施例中,该解锁消息可在网络上作为比特流传递至EIR终端。该EIR终端能可被配置为响应输入的解锁编码消息来初始化EIR操作的计数器的值。
