| 20100152900 | Optimizing refinery hydrogen gas supply, distribution and consumption in real time - The present invention is directed to innovative and unique mathematical models that capture key constraints, process kinetics and control structures such that a wide envelope of hydrogen gas and associated light gas supply, distribution and use can be modeled. The present invention is also directed to a real time optimization (RTO) computer application for effective optimization of hydrogen and associated light gas supply and distribution and, thereby, consumption, in a refinery that employs said models and solves an objective function, as well as to a method and refinery using the same. The objective function can be an economic objective function such as the minimization of cost for hydrogen supply and distribution or the maximization of profit based on a valuation of products made by hydrogen consumers in the hydrogen system minus the corresponding cost of the hydrogen supply and distribution. | 06-17-2010 |

| 20090327135 | CREDIT CARD PAIRED WITH LOCATION IDENTIFIABLE DEVICE FOR POINT OF SERVICE FRAUD DETECTION - A method and apparatus for identifying attempted fraud using a consumer account in real time, the method comprising the steps of determining when a consumer account is used to attempt to obtain a resource from a resource provider, determining whether a consumer apparatus that is associated with the consumer account is located at a location associated with the resource provider and indicating that the resource provider should provide the resource when the consumer apparatus is at a location associated with the resource provider. | 12-31-2009 |
| 20090328052 | RESOURCE LOCATOR VERIFICATION METHOD AND APPARATUS - A method to be implemented using a computer system, the method comprising the steps of providing a resource database that specifies locations of resources for use by consumers, receiving a location communication originated by a mobile consumer device associated with a consumer at a time temporally proximate a time when the consumer accesses a resource where the location communication indicates the location of the consumer device and using the location of the consumer device indicated in the communication to update the resource database. | 12-31-2009 |
| 20100121701 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR UNIQUELY IDENTIFYING POINT OF SALE DEVICES IN AN OPEN PAYMENT NETWORK - A system, apparatus, and method for using a point of sale (POS) terminal as part of an electronic payment transaction. A unique number, code, alphanumeric character string, or other form of identification is assigned to each terminal manufacturer. Each terminal manufacturer then assigns a unique global identifier to each terminal they manufacture. The identifier assigned by the manufacturer may incorporate or be derived from the unique identifier assigned to each manufacturer. In the course of an electronic payment, other form of transaction, or other function or operation of the terminal, the POS terminal's unique global identifier is provided to a payment processor or other electronic payment network entity. This information, alone or in combination with portable consumer device data and transaction data, may be used to provide new services, content, and products to consumers or merchants. | 05-13-2010 |
