International Classification:

G06Q 10/00

US Classification:

705 10

Abstract:

A method and system that enables users to generate and manage forecasts through an integrated software tool. Forecast administrators are enabled to create forecast series data that define a forecast's structure and provide search criteria that is used in generating forecasts. These data also define who may participate in creating forecasts, and their relative position in an organization's hierarchy. Users are also enabled to enter a variety of forecast data that are stored by the system. Various forecast data are then retrieved corresponding to the user, applicable subordinates, and parameters defined by the forecast series. Users may then fine-tune their forecasts and submit their forecasts to their managers. The managers are enabled to adjust and roll up their subordinate's forecasts to produce their own forecasts. This process may be recursively applied while moving up through various layers of management defined by the organization's hierarchy.

International Classification:

G11C 11/34

US Classification:

36518518, 36518524

Abstract:

The timing of logic read operations in a Flash memory device may be improved by a pad serial output circuit which receives a pre-decoded instruction signal and pre-fetched logic data prior to the last command clock, and which performs a fast resolution of the command in the pad serial output circuit on the last clock of the command input sequence. In one illustratively implementation, instruction pre-decode and data pre-fetch may be done on the seventh clock during command input. In another illustrative implementation, a first instruction pre-decode and data pre-fetch may be done on the fourth clock during command input, and a second instruction pre-decode may be done on the seventh clock during command input. Both serial protocol interface, including dual and quad I/O SPI, and quad peripheral interface are supported.

Abstract:

A system and method are disclosed to effectively communicate business data to a plurality of business entities. In one embodiment, a system and method of effectively communicating supply chain management data to business entities are provided. In one embodiment, a data collaboration framework is loaded into a host server to provide one or more data collaboration models to business entities participating in the collaboration of supply chain management data. The data collaboration framework allows the creation of formulas for operating on supplied collaboration data, business rules for raising exceptions, and actions based on exceptions to be easily configured by an administrator.

Inventors:

International Classification:

G06F015/177

US Classification:

709220000

Abstract:

A network has clients and a server. The clients can discover and be discovered by each other. Discovery includes emitting requests to and acquiring identifying information from clients within a certain geographical range. A discovering client sends all identifying information to the server. The server includes client information database and topological map, comprised of nodes representing clients and edges indicating the discovery of one client by another. When the server receives identifying information from the discovering client, the server updates the topological map and determines which neighboring clients of the discovering client matches the match criteria of the discovering client. The server may determine a discovery schedule detailing which client should discover next. The server may send the match information and discovery schedule to the discovering client, discovered clients, or a third party. The server may also store this information.

US Classification:

705020000, 705010000, 705037000

Abstract:

A dynamic pricing system and method that enables prices for sellable objects to be dynamically adjusted using pricing factors corresponding to attributes of the sellable objects. Product administrators are enabled to define sellable products and extended attributes for the products, while pricing administrators are enabled to define price lists for the sellable products and extended attributes. Sales representatives build sellable objects, such as quotes, orders, shopping carts, etc, by adding products that customers would like to purchase to the sellable object. Additionally, extended attributes may be selected for all or a portion of the products. Using Static Pricing, an initial or static price is determined for the sellable objects. The static price may then be dynamically adjusted prior to or at the point of a sales transaction or offer using pricing factors corresponding to combinations of various attributes of the sellable object and/or products from which it is built.

Abstract:

An extended attribute-based pricing system and method that enables users to build sellable objects based on selected products and extended attributes for those products. Product administrators are enabled to define sellable products and extended attributes for the products, while pricing administrators are enabled to define price lists for the sellable products and extended attributes. Sales representatives build sellable objects, such as quotes, orders, shopping carts, etc, by adding products that customers would like to purchase to the sellable object. Additionally, extended attributes may be selected for all or a portion of the products. The extended attributes may be stored in attribute classes, and may be loaded into memory structures to reduce database accesses.

Abstract:

Systems and methods for profiling a pallet in a warehouse can include a turntable that rotates the pallet, conveyor belts that move the pallet, and a vertical profiling structure, having cameras mounted at different locations, in a stationary position proximate to a side of the turntable. A photo booth can also be used to provide uniform lighting. A computing system can instruct a conveyor belt to automatically route the pallet onto the turntable, instruct the cameras to capture image data of the pallet as it rotates on the turntable, receive the image data, and retrieve image-based models of the pallet that were trained using images of pallets having unique identifiers. The computing system can determine, based on applying the image-based models to the image data, whether the pallet's unique identifier is identifiable, and transmit, to a warehouse management system, a notification indicating whether the unique identifier is identifiable.
