12/870796

Inventors:

Paul-David Morrison - Cedar Park TX, US
Gerardo Garcia - Cedar Park TX, US

International Classification:

G06F 3/00

US Classification:

715853

Abstract:

A method and apparatus for an interactive catalog includes presenting a portion of a database. The method includes presenting a first tier of selectable graphics images. Each selectable graphics image in the first tier of selectable graphics images represents a first collection of data structures corresponding thereto. The method also includes presenting a second tier of selectable graphics images, in response to a selecting of a selectable graphics image of the first tier to produce a first tier selected graphics image. Each selectable graphics image in the second tier of selectable graphics images represents a second collection of data structures. Each data structure in the second tier also belongs to the first collection of data structures corresponding to the first tier selected graphics image.

US Classification:

717105, 717109, 715763

Abstract:

System and method for managing and specifying hardware implementation of a graphical program. A graphical program that implements an algorithm is stored in a memory of a computer system. The graphical program meets one or more first specified implementation requirements and is targeted for deployment to a programmable hardware element. A plurality of sets of descriptive directives are also stored in the memory, where the descriptive directives are associated with the graphical program and specify one or more additional specified implementation requirements, e. g. , memory resource implementations, optimization directives, and so forth, where the additional directives result from programmatic and/or user-specification. Each set of descriptive directives is useable by a synthesis tool to generate a respective hardware configuration program for deployment to the graphical programmable hardware element.

Abstract:

A method for providing data warehousing for a list of authorized signatories is provided. The method may include displaying a hierarchal list of signatories with at least one entitlement authorization level. The method may use a GUI to display the list of entitlements in an array of at least three rows of entitlement authorization levels. The method may further include receiving, from the client, a modification to the at least one entitlement authorization. The method may extract, from client documents, a signature of a signatory with entitlement authorization. The method may receive a command to hover, on a Graphical User Interface (“GUI”), over the signatory. In response to the hovering, the may display, preferably on a hierarchal display, a copy of the signature of the signatory, a hierarchal list of signatories with current entitlement authorization, and a listing of documents signed by each of the signatories.

International Classification:

H04L 9/32

Abstract:

An apparatus for removing an individual as an authorized signatory is provided. The apparatus may include a transceiver. The transceiver may be configured to receive a request to remove the individual as the authorized signatory in a centralized repository. The transceiver may be further configured to transmit a request to remove the individual as the authorized signatory. The removal of the individual may include removing the individual as a listed authorized signatory in the centralized repository. The removal may also include transmitting an instruction to reclassify one or more associated signature documents. The associated signature documents may corresponding to authorized signatory documents for the individual. The instruction to reclassify may include an instruction to categorize the individual's authorized signatory documents as non-designated signature documents.

International Classification:

G06F 21/62
G06Q 40/00

Abstract:

An apparatus for validating entitlement capabilities, and determining, based on the entitlement capabilities, whether an account request associated with the entitlement capabilities qualifies for Straight Through Processing is provided. The apparatus may include a receiver. The receiver may receive entitlement authorization for a signatory and a client request to open an account. The apparatus may also include memory configured to: store, in a centralized repository, entitlement capabilities for the authorized signatory. The centralized repository may provide access to one or more signature documents associated with the authorized signatory. The centralized repository may link the signatory to one or more signature documents associated with the signatory's authorization. The apparatus may also include a display configured to display a hierarchal map of the one or more authorized signatories. The hierarchal map illustrates lines of authority from the authorized signatories to each of their respective authorizers.
