20150302147 | Synchronization of Heatlhcare Data Across Disparate Data Centers - Methods, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for synchronizing healthcare data across disparate data centers. Healthcare data from healthcare data sources is received by a collector service that operates in a cloud computing platform. The data is sent to a staging platform associated with a first data center that is hosting the collector service. From here, the data is stored in association with a long-term storage data store associated with the first data center. As well, it is communicated to processing nodes associated with the first data center that subscribe to the data. The staging platform also communicates the data to a staging platform associated with a second data center. This staging platform also stores the data in association with a long-term storage data store located at the second data center and communicates the data to processing nodes located at the second data center that subscribe to the data. | 10-22-2015 |
20150302149 | AGGREGATION, PARTITIONING, AND MANAGEMENT OF HEALTHCARE DATA FOR EFFICIENT STORAGE AND PROCESSING - Methods, systems, and computer-readable media are provided for aggregating, partitioning, and storing healthcare data. Healthcare data is collected from various disparate healthcare data sources. The data is aggregated into batches of the same type of data. From here, the data is partitioned according to the data's originating healthcare data source. The aggregated and partitioned healthcare data is then stored in a long term storage data store. This system of storing healthcare data allows for efficient retrieval and processing by computing solutions that need access to batches of healthcare data. The system also reduces costs associated with storing data as duplicate storage is eliminated. | 10-22-2015 |

20090276280 | Using Alerts to Bring Attention to In-Store Information - A method is provided that uses alerts to bring in-store information that is of interest to the attention of team members working in a retail store. To send an alert to a team member logged in to a device data, data from a source is evaluated against business rules. An event is generated when a piece of data satisfies the business rules. The event indicates that the piece of data is of interest. A task is activated for the event and assigned to the team member acting in a role associated with the source of the event. An alert is sent to the device that the team member is logged in to indicating that the team member has been assigned the task. | 11-05-2009 |
20100293039 | On-Demand Performance Reports - A method is provided for rendering performance reports on a client device in a retail establishment. A request is received to render a summary performance report on the client device. Shift information for the user is retrieved. At least one summarized performance metric is obtained from one of a plurality of business data statistics providers using the shift information. Scoring rules are applied to the at least one obtained summarized performance metric. The at least one summarized performance metric and corresponding score associated with the at least one summarized performance metric are compiled into the summary performance report. The summary performance report is sent to the client device for rendering. | 11-18-2010 |
20110125541 | Using Alerts to Bring Attention to In-Store Information - A method and system is provided that uses alerts to bring in-store information that is of interest to the attention of team members working in a retail store.

20110153406 | Tracking and Processing Discount Cards - In one example, a stored value card system is modified to process discount cards that are capable of providing varying percentage discounts on an array of products or services that can be purchased by a consumer. Implementations of the stored value card system can include modifications that allow a transaction using the discount card to pass through as an authorized transaction in spite of, for instance, application software logic that otherwise rejects transactions for stored value cards having a zero balance. For example, when the modified stored value card system detects a transaction involving a discount card, an authorization system within the modified stored value card system can generate an alternative error code that prevents the point of sale system from rejecting the transaction due to a zero balance. | 06-23-2011 |
