Patent number: 10929196Abstract: A virtual resource control and distribution system is provided that utilizes virtual resource pools coupled to authentic resource pools in order to reduce processing capacity requirements, memory requirements, and processing time. In particular, a reduced number of authentic resource pools are used, such as one single authentic resource pool, that is coupled to virtual resource pools. The virtual resource pools may be utilized to enter into interactions. However, when interactions are entered, the virtual resource pools may be adjusted based on the resources associated with the interaction without actually having any resources associated with the virtual resource pools. As such, the virtual resource pools may illustrate a change in virtual resources in the virtual resource pool, but the authentic resource pool to which the virtual resource pool is associated, will be utilized for distributing the resources and processing the interactions.Type: GrantFiled: December 18, 2019Date of Patent: February 23, 2021Assignee: BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATIONInventors: Alfred James Reed, Huihui Wu

Patent number: 10817356Abstract: Provide improved delivery of resources to a recipient entity when the recipient entity is involved in an interaction with a provider entity. One or more application programming interfaces (APIs) are utilized to identify delivery channels, and potentially substitute an original delivery channel with an alternate delivery channel. The present invention utilizes entity information, such as a recipient entity identifier, in order to determine recipient entity delivery preferences from a stored preference or from communications with the recipient entity. The system provides the resources to the recipient entity according to the preferences identified. A more efficient delivery of resources to the recipient entity is provided that improves the capacity, memory, and processing speed of the delivery systems and improve the ability to identify the identity of the recipient entity before the resources are delivered to the recipient entity.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 2017Date of Patent: October 27, 2020Assignee: BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATIONInventors: Huihui Wu, Dean Lyons Henry, Alfred James Reed

Patent number: 10530780Abstract: Provide improved validation of a recipient entity when the recipient entity is involved in an interaction with a provider entity. One or more application programming interfaces (APIs) are provided that are utilized to validate the recipient entity. Recipient entity information, such as a recipient entity identifier, is utilized and communicated to the resource systems to more efficiently validate the recipient entity in order to improve the processing capacity, reduce memory requirements, and improve processing speeds for validating the recipient entity for an interaction. Moreover, a more accurate determination of the actual identity of the recipient entity may be provided, thus improving the security of the interaction between the entities and reducing the potential for misappropriation of the resources involved in the interactions.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 2017Date of Patent: January 7, 2020Assignee: BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATIONInventors: Dean Lyons Henry, Huihui Wu, Alfred James Reed

Patent number: 10320662Abstract: The centralized resource routing and distribution improves upon the routing of interactions and distribution of resources for interactions between users and operator entities. A centralized gateway is provided through which interactions may be routed and resources distributed using one or more substitute interfaces. The one or more substitute interfaces may mimic interfaces of the operator, or otherwise provide a universal interface for use of multiple resource pools for the interactions. Use of the gateway and substitute interfaces increases processing capacity, reduces memory requirements, and/or improves processing time for both the operator entities and the organization entities since it provides for centralized routing and distribution for multiple operator entities without the operator entities having to store and/or process user information or the interactions associated therewith.Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 2017Date of Patent: June 11, 2019Assignee: BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATIONInventors: Anand Ahuja, Alfred James Reed, Joe Nathan Lamar, III, Ayeesha Sachedina
