Abstract: Disclosed embodiments include systems and methods for providing a secure physical storage system. The system may receive a request to register a first physical storage box from an entity including location information and security information. The request can be validated by comparing the security information to a predetermined security threshold. The location information associated with the first physical storage box can be recorded to a blockchain. The first registration information can be received from a first user device. The first physical storage box can be assigned to the first user device and a first identity token associated with the first physical storage box. The assignment information associated with the first physical storage box can be recorded to the blockchain. A first identity token can be received from the first user device. Instructions can be transmitted to the first physical storage box to transition from a locked to an unlocked state.

Abstract: The workflow management system provides automatic management and execution of workflows that include both automated and user-driven actions. The system monitors connected external systems and/or users for the occurrence of events, which trigger the execution of one or more workflow plans. Each workflow plans consists of a plurality of actions and user actions to be performed in a sequential manner. Actions are executed automatically by the system, but user actions are executed asynchronously due to the inclusion of users in the workflow plan. The system handles the asynchronous nature of user actions by maintaining a pending user action database that users can access to view pending user actions, complete user actions, and reserve user actions for subsequent completion.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus of modeling the costs associated with a system that includes a plurality of components are provided. In accordance with a preferred form of the present invention, a method includes using a first and a second node of a tree structure to represent a first and a second operation associated with the system. A branch of the tree structure is also used to represent a first dependency between the first operation and the second operation. A determination may then be made as to whether a third node, in addition to the first node, represents the first operation. In the alternative, a determination may be made as to whether a second branch branches from the first operation.

Abstract: This application is directed towards methods and systems for displaying health status messages and similar information from equipment, including inputting a plurality of status messages and displaying color status indicators reflecting status information. In another embodiment, the color status indicators includes one of a red, green, and yellow indicator. Further, a computer program product includes computer readable media for inputting a plurality of status messages and displaying a plurality of indicators to display equipment status. In another embodiment, the plurality of indicators include fuel levels, operational capabilities, and maintenance health status.

Abstract: This application is directed to methods, computer program products, and systems for processing equipment status messages and similar information. In one embodiment, status messages originating from a plurality of pieces of equipment are input and compared to user determined thresholds, and indicators are output reflecting the comparison. The indicators may includes fuel level information, operational capability and maintenance health. A computer program product includes computer readable media for inputting a plurality of the equipment status messages, comparing the equipment status messages with user determined thresholds, and generating a plurality of indicators to display equipment status. A system for viewing the health status of aircraft includes sensors to transmit health status messages, a network arranged for transmitting the messages, a processor arranged to compare health status data with user determined thresholds, and a display to output a health status indicators.
