20080239369 | Production workflow integration system - A production workflow integration system for a print shop includes multiple workstations, a printing device and a computer in communication with at least one of the workstations and the printing device. Each workstation includes a data collection module having at least one an electronic data storage device reader. The printing device prepares a job ticket for each print job to be produced by the print shop. The computer stores print job instructions for the print job on an electronic data storage device attached to the job ticket and stores the identification information of the electronic data storage device in a field of a print job record in a database stored in the computer. | 10-02-2008 |
20090094490 | Location based notification system - A location based notification system for a shop having multiple components that are susceptible to a fault event includes an electronic data storage device and a fault event sensor apparatus associated with each susceptible component. The electronic data storage device has identification data for the associated component stored therein. Operators carry a portable device having an electronic data storage device reader and a memory. The fault event sensor apparatus generates fault event data when a fault event occurs in the associated component and transmits the fault event data to the electronic data storage device or the portable device. The data stored in the electronic data storage devices is read with an electronic data storage device reader of the portable device as the operator moves through the shop. The portable device determines whether the electronic data storage device has fault data stored therein, or if fault event data has been stored in the portable device for the component associated with the identification data read from the electronic data storage device. | 04-09-2009 |
20100121663 | System and Method for Maintaining Displayed Pricing at Retail Stores - A system for maintaining displayed pricing at retail stores includes a computer, a printer, an EDSD reader or an EDSD reader/encoder, and at least one portable EDSD reader. The computer includes a database having a record of each product for which displayed pricing will be maintained. Each such record includes a unique identifier for the product and the current price for the product. The printer is in communication with the computer, and is adapted to generate printed pricing material on EDSD enabled media. The EDSD reader or EDSD reader/encoder is associated with the printer. Printed pricing material is generated by obtaining the current price from the product record in the product pricing database, printing the current price on EDSD enabled media, and associating an identifier stored in the EDSD with the product. The printed pricing material is then installed in the store. | 05-13-2010 |
20120266155 | METHOD AND SYSTEM TO REGULATE THE ELECTRONIC AVAILABILITY OF APPLICATION SOFTWARE UPDATES BASED ON INFORMATION COLLECTED REGARDING INSTALLATION, USAGE AND SUPPORT FOR THESE UPDATES - A method for providing software updates. The method comprises selecting an eligible population for a software update from a target population and distributing the software update to the initial eligible population. Thereafter, use and error information is gathered and the size of the eligible population is adjusted according to a stability calculation based on the gathered information. This process is repeated until the entire target population for the update has received the update. | 10-18-2012 |
20150143363 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MANAGING VIRTUAL MACHINES IN DISTRIBUTED COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT - The disclosed embodiments illustrate methods and systems for managing virtual machines in a distributed computing environment. The method includes determining an estimated execution time for each job type in one or more jobs received from users and subscribing to virtual machines from the distributed computing environment to execute jobs of each type. The virtual machines are subscribed based on service level agreement (SLA) terms, quality of service (QoS) metrics, and/or the estimated execution time. Further, an actual job execution time for each job executed on an associated subscribed virtual machine is monitored. Thereafter, one or more under-performing virtual machines are identified based on the actual execution time, the estimated execution time, and a tolerance value for each type of job. The one or more under-performing virtual machines are released, while a new set of virtual machines are re-subscribed, such that the SLA terms and the QoS metrics are met. | 05-21-2015 |

20140304292 | METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR EXTENDING A SOCIAL NETWORK WITH PRODUCT INFORMATION - A method of querying a social network associated with a user may include receiving, by a computing device, a query that includes an indication of a product, and an identifier associated with the user. The method may include executing, by the computing device, the query across the social network by sending the query to one or more agent applications associated with one or more members of the social network, and receiving a notification from one or more of the agent applications if a profile for a member of the social network indicates that the member is associated with the product, and a privacy policy associated with the member permits the agent to send the notification. | 10-09-2014 |

20140342791 | INTERACTIVE ELECTRONIC GAME OF PATTERN MATCHING - A method of playing an interactive game of pattern matching. The game application renders an image of a target pattern of items in a designated area of the display screen and an array of items in a stack area of the display screen. The player selects a pattern corresponding to a group of items in the stack area. If the selected pattern matches at least part of the target pattern, the selected pattern is removed from the stack area, and if it does not match, the items of the selected pattern are kept within the stack area. A match is determined when the items in the selected pattern match corresponding items in the at least part of the target pattern. After an item has been removed, a space is left behind in the stack, which allows another item in the stack from above the space to drop into the space after previous item has been removed. | 11-20-2014 |

20110088628 | Apparatus and methods for providing drinking water and/or entertainment for pets - Apparatus and methods are disclosed that may be used for providing drinking water and/or entertaining to pets, such as while the pet is travelling away from home, riding in a car, and/or in a pet carrier during a long car ride, airplane ride, bus ride, etc. In an exemplary embodiment, an apparatus generally includes a base configured for engagement with a container. The apparatus may further include a reservoir and a pump in fluid communication with the reservoir, for pumping liquid from the container into the reservoir when the container is upright and the base is engaged to the container. The apparatus may be configured to allow the pump to be selectively activated by the animal to pump liquid from the container into the reservoir. An elongate fluid conduit may be operatively associated with the pump and be in fluid communication with the reservoir. The elongate fluid conduit may have a sufficient length to extend into a liquid within the container. A rotatable ball may be provided at least partially within the reservoir such that the ball rotates relative to the reservoir when licked by the animal. The ball may apply a downward force against a button operatively associated with the pump to thereby press the button to operate the pump to draw liquid from the container into an open end portion of the fluid conduit, through the fluid conduit, and into the reservoir. Liquid from the reservoir may adhere to an outer surface portion of the ball and thereby become accessible to and drinkable by the animal when the outer surface portion of the ball is rotated from an initial position within the liquid in the reservoir to a second position accessible to the animal's tongue. | 04-21-2011 |

20150324440 | Identifying Query Intent - Technologies are described herein for identifying query intent from a raw query. A method for identifying intent may include repeatedly separating and merging terms of a natural language expression based on a set of rule-based transpositions of natural language terms into one or more defined terms based on predetermined naming conventions for at least one software function. Thereafter, a cluster of previous search terms related to the defined terms may be identified, and the natural language expression may be associated with the identified cluster to create intent-based cluster information. | 11-12-2015 |
