| 20100268513 | RENDERING AND MODIFYING CAD DESIGN ENTITIES IN OBJECT-ORIENTED APPLICATIONS - An object-oriented design program provides is configured to instantly render in a three-dimensional interface user CAD designs received as CAD-based design elements (e.g., CAD blocks or lines). The object-oriented program renders the user CAD designs regardless of whether the user designs are practical, or use finishes or colors that are in-stock for the selected design elements. In addition, the object-oriented program can also create intelligent software objects for the CAD-based elements at a later time, upon request by the user. The intelligent software objects can be configured to automatically resolve themselves in view of one or more system limitations and rules in related components, and to replicate any such resolution back to the CAD-based blocks if desired. Thus, a user can have the benefits of instant 3D rendering of CAD drawings with or without the automatic resolution provided by intelligent software objects, depending on the situation. | 10-21-2010 |
| 20100306681 | CREATION AND MODIFICATION OF VALID FUNCTIONAL DESIGN LAYOUTS - A software application can capture product parameters and attributes in order to allow a non-expert user to create a valid functional system layout in a design space. To enable accurate layouts, the software application can automatically apply all applicable components, connectors, rules, attributes, codes, and behaviors to each component/design element in the design space. The intelligent, object-oriented software can apply rules and behaviors automatically, not only providing an accurate, valid layout, but also optimizing the layout. The intelligent, object-oriented software can recognize required changes effected by a user-driven change, and automatically resolve the layout design. | 12-02-2010 |

| 20100076844 | Advertising System and Method - An advertising system including at least one consumer database containing a plurality of consumer profiles with consumer preference identifying data, at least one brand database containing details of brand clients, each having one or more branding parameters, at least one content database containing a plurality of pieces of content provided by at least one content provider with each piece of content having one or more content profile identifiers, and a content matching engine which matches the branding parameters of the brand clients with one or more of pieces of content and provides these pieces of content to one or more consumers upon the consumer request, based on the matching of the branding parameters and the consumer preference identifying data at no cost to the consumer whilst charging an advertising fee to the brand client and paying a content provision fee to the content provider. | 03-25-2010 |
| 20110145072 | System and Method for Producing And Displaying Content Representing A Brand Persona - A computer implemented method for producing and displaying content representing a brand persona, the method including the steps of providing at least one consumer database containing a plurality of consumer profiles with consumer preference identifying data stored on a data storage device, providing at least one brand database containing details of brand clients, each having one or more branding parameters stored on a data storage device, providing at least one content database containing a plurality of pieces of content provided by at least one content provider with each piece of content having one or more content profile identifiers stored on a data storage device, a brand specific interface accessible by at least one consumer, the brand specific interface generated by a data processor by matching at least one branding parameter of a brand client with one or more pieces of content and displaying the pieces of content on a branded interface presented to a consumer at no cost to the consumer whilst charging an advertising fee to the brand client and paying a content provision fee to the content provider, the content provided without the branding disrupting or interrupting the content. | 06-16-2011 |
| 20110145289 | System and Method For Generating A Pool of Matched Content - A method of generating a pool of matched content pieces from an available pool of content pieces based on a selected sample, including providing at least one consumer database containing a plurality of consumer profiles with consumer preference identifying data stored on a data storage device, providing at least one brand database containing details of brand clients, each having one or more branding parameters stored on a data storage device, providing at least one content database containing a plurality of pieces of content provided by at least one content provider with each piece of content having one or more content profile identifiers stored on a data storage device, selecting a number of representative content pieces based on one or more branding parameters of a brand client to convey a brand identity, testing the representative content pieces against a set of constraints based on one or more content profile identifiers to establish that a minimum number of content piece identifiers are chosen using a data processor, and generating a pool of matched content pieces by selecting a plurality of content pieces from the available pool based on comparing the one or more content profile identifiers of the representative content pieces with one or more content profile identifiers of each content piece in the available pool of content pieces and including matches in the matched content pool using a data processor. | 06-16-2011 |
