Abstract: A method and system for fetching functionalities across various user interfaces and providing, for execution, instructions to invoke a function that is not present at a particular user interface are disclosed. The method implemented in the system can include receiving i) data identifying a first function associated with a first user interface, and ii) instructions for invoking the first function in one or more user interfaces; receiving, from a second user interface, a request for invoking the first function; selecting, using a processor, an instruction configured to invoke the first function in the second user interface; transmitting the instruction to the second user interface; and invoking, using the transmitted instruction, the first function in an application associated with the second user interface.

Abstract: A system and method for generating a flow based on multiply types of interactions are provided. Data defining one or more sequences of multiple interactive nodes are received for the multiple interactive nodes, where each of the multiple interactive nodes corresponds to a particular type of interaction. One of the interactive nodes is designated as the starting interactive node and other interactive nodes are designated as intermediary interactive nodes, where the starting interactive node and at least one of the intermediary interactive nodes correspond to different types of interactions. Intermediary interactive nodes are connected to the starting interactive node based on the one or more sequences, where the connection includes one edge corresponding to a direct connection to the starting interactive node or multiple edges corresponding to an indirect connection via at least one other intermediary interactive node. Visualization data for the interactive nodes is generated and provided for display.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media can receive information about requested resources from a computational resource consumer. The information about the requested resources can be analyzed to generate a first multi-dimensional array including a first set of name-value pairs associated with the requested resources. Information about offered resources can be received from a computational resource provider. The information about the offered resources can be analyzed to generate a second multi-dimensional array including a second set of name-value pairs associated with the offered resources. The first multi-dimensional array and the second multi-dimensional array can be evaluated based on an evaluation algorithm.

Abstract: Methods, apparatuses and systems directed to a distributed data repository system including a plurality of symmetric data repository nodes. In certain embodiments of the present invention, the distributed data repository system is message-centric operative to store message payloads transmitted from client nodes. In certain embodiments, the distributed data repository system is BLOB-centric, maintaining binary data objects and indexes of attribute values that map to the binary data objects. Of course, the present invention can be utilized to store a great variety of digital data contained in message payloads. According to certain embodiments of the present invention, the attribute indexes are fully replicated across all data repository nodes, while the message payloads (e.g., data objects or other content) are exchanged across data repository nodes as needed to fulfill client queries.

Abstract: The Batting Machine is a device used during baseball practice to help players develop a level and more powerful swing. It is composed of a batting post with an attached target pad which is attached to a base frame by a pivot rod and a pneumatic retracting mechanism. The frame works to keep balance and control of the moving parts. The batting post operates as you swing and hit the pad connected to it. Once the batting post is hit it will move back and downward between the frames legs where a rubber band strap restrains it from going any further. Then the pneumatic retracting mechanism connecting the frame and the batting post returns the batting post to the starting position where it is ready to be struck again.
