| 20090027057 | Ethernet Electrometer - An electrometer includes an input terminal adapted to receive an input signal an ethernet terminal, a web server, and a microcontroller. The ethernet terminal is adapted to receive an ethernet cable such that electrical power is provided to the ethernet terminal. The web server is in electrical communication with the ethernet terminal, and is adapted to receive a command. The microcontroller is in electrical communication with at least one of the ethernet terminal and the web server, and is adapted to execute the received command. | 01-29-2009 |

| 20100306031 | System and Method for Product Role Analysis - The present invention relates to a system and method for analyzing product roles. The system receives a listing of products for classification into roles. The system receives volume data for each item, as well as demand coefficient. Elasticity of the products may be determined from the demand coefficients. Product volumes and elasticities may then be compared against one another by graphing the product by its volume versus elasticity. From this comparison the products may be classified into one or more roles. These roles include image items, niche products, assortment completers, and profit drivers. The assortment completer role is populated with products which have high relative elasticity and low relative volume. Niche product role is populated with products which have low relative elasticity and low relative volume. The image item role is populated with products which have high relative elasticity and high relative volume. And lastly, the profit driver role is populated with products which have low relative elasticity and high relative volume. This comparison may also include generating an “image value” for the product. | 12-02-2010 |

| 20080221949 | System and Method for Updating Forecast Model - A method for updating a forecast model is disclosed. The forecast model includes parameters that receives collected data representing historical dependent and causal data. The collected data are in different units of measure from one another. Based on the collected data, the forecast model is applied to determine a total error value from a calculation performed on the parameters in the forecast model. To update the forecast model, additional parameters are added, existing parameters are modified, or parameters are removed from the forecast model to determine a modified total error value. The modified total error value is then compared to the original total error value. The parameters are also converted to normalized values to be in a common unit of measure to facilitate the application of the forecast model to determine a total error value. | 09-11-2008 |

| 20100114625 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CREATING A CONSISTENT HIERARCHY OF DECOMPOSITION OF A BUSINESS METRIC - Methods and apparatuses for computing a variance between two business metrics is described. In one embodiment, the method computes a variance for each of a first set of activities based on the corresponding reference state of that activity, wherein the variance for an activity is the change in contribution for that activity between the first and second business metrics and with each of the first set of activities having a reference value. Furthermore, the method computes a variance for each of a second set of activities based on the corresponding start and end values of that activity with each of the second set of activities having a start and end value. | 05-06-2010 |
| 20100114637 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CREATING DUE-TO REPORTS FOR ACTIVITIES THAT MAY NOT HAVE REFERENCE VALUE - Methods and apparatuses for computing a variance for the difference between two business metrics. In one embodiment, the method accesses a response model and a plurality of activities with start and end values for each of the plurality of activities. Furthermore, the method computes a variance for the difference between the first and second business metrics for each of the plurality of activities using the response model by setting that activity to one of the corresponding starting and ending values and setting others of the plurality of activities to the value state opposite of that activity, wherein the variance for an activity is the change in contribution for that activity between the start and end sales volumes. | 05-06-2010 |
| 20100114657 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONFIGURABLE MODEL-INDEPENDENT DECOMPOSITION OF A BUSINESS METRIC - Methods and apparatuses for decomposing a business metric based on a plurality of activities and a response model are described. In one embodiment, the method accesses the response model and the plurality of activities, the plurality of activities each having a reference and executed value. The method computes a contribution to the business metric based on setting one of the plurality of activities to one of the corresponding reference and executed value and setting the other activities to the value state opposite of that activity. Furthermore, the method computes each of the contributions independent of the response model type. | 05-06-2010 |
| 20100114658 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CREATING A CONSISTENT HIERARCHY OF DECOMPOSITION OF A BUSINESS METRIC - Methods and apparatuses for computing an atomic decomposition level and a set of different decomposition levels based on the atomic decomposition level for a business metric are described. In one embodiment, the method accesses a response model and a first plurality of activities that are used to compute an atomic decomposition level. The atomic decomposition level is a base level of the set of different decomposition levels using different pluralities of activities. Furthermore, the set of different decompositions is consistent with the atomic decomposition level. | 05-06-2010 |
