Abstract: Mechanisms are provided for generating a resource allocation in an omnichannel distribution network. Demand forecast data and current inventory data related to a resource and the omnichannel distribution network are obtained and an ally-adversary bimodal inventory optimization (BIO) computer model is instantiated that includes an adversary component that simulates, through a computer simulation, a worst-case scenario of resource demand and resource availability, and an ally component that limits the adversary component based on a simulation of a limited best-case scenario of resource demand and resource availability. The BIO computer model is applied to the demand forecast data and current inventory data, to generate a predicted consumption for the resource. A resource allocation recommendation is generated for allocating the resource to locations of the omnichannel distribution network based on the predicted consumption, which is output to a downstream computing system for further processing.

Abstract: A system includes a set of adapter interfaces, a router module, and a processor. Each adapter interface is assigned to a different level of security. The router module sends requests to the adapter interfaces, based on the security levels associated with the devices that submitted the requests. A first adapter interface establishes a first connection to the servers, providing access to a first zone. A second adapter interface establishes a second connection to the servers, providing access to a second zone. The first zone includes a set of resources assigned to the first level of security that is not included in the second zone. Each adapter interface further receives data and applies different levels of security to the data, based on the security levels associated with the devices that submitted the data.

Abstract: Systems and methods that provide for the pre-fetching of data, including receiving user input data from a user device, and in response, identifying a first set of objects for enabling an application operating on the user device to render a first interface in a sequence of interfaces, and determining a second set of objects for enabling the application to render a second interface in the sequence of interfaces. The first set of objects are transmitted to the user device, as well as instructions for directing the user device to render the first interface in the application using the first set of objects, and receive and store the second set of objects in an information repository associated with the user device. In response to a user input, the second interface is rendered in the application using the second set of objects.

Abstract: Data warehousing solutions utilize lengthy and complex SQL instructions. These SQL instructions are difficult to parse and understand underlying logic/transformations performed. Conventionally, extensive analysis, time and effort needs to be spent to understand such SQL instructions and detect any data abnormalities in the SQL instructions. This technical challenge is exacerbated in high-volume production systems that include multiple systems that each utilize their own sets of SQL instructions. Apparatus and methods described herein take as input a natural language inquiry received from a user. The system attempts to parse the natural language inquiry to identify one or more relevant SQL instructions. Apparatus and methods may utilize AI and natural language processing to locate relevant SQL instructions, deconstruct them into subqueries and map a logical operational flow. Based on the mapped logic flow, a natural language response may be formulated to the user inquiry.

Abstract: A system and method of pre-fetching data in a network includes displaying first data to a user, the first data being upstream of other data in a data flow. Before receiving a request from the user to view the other data, retrieving at least some of the other data and storing the retrieved other data in a memory device. After a request is received from the user to display the other data, using the stored data for the display to the user.

Abstract: A laminate lay-up includes a coated decorative paper layer having a decorative paper layer with a textured coating layer applied thereto. The textured coating layer is comprised of a UV curable coating composition. The laminate lay-up also includes a decorative layer and a core layer.

Abstract: In accordance with the present disclosure, a method may initiate communications over an synchronous communication channel between first and second computing devices and a second computing device. Responsive to the communications being discontinued on the synchronous communication channel, a context of communications exchanged between the first and second computing devices in the synchronous communication channel may be retained. An asynchronous message may be received from the first computing device, the asynchronous message being directed to the second computing device. Invitations may be sent to the first and second computing devices inviting the first and second computing devices to rejoin the synchronous communication channel.

Abstract: Methods and systems for transmitting data are disclosed. In one embodiment a portable electronic device comprises a processor-implemented user interface module to cause the presentation of a first information field to a user as part of a graphical user interface in the portable electronic device, and to receive information entered or data identification in the first information field. A data transmitting module commences transmitting the information entered or the data identified over a network in response to the user interface module detecting that the user has navigated away from the first information field.

Abstract: A system may receive a first message transmitted over a network from a first device. A first invitation to join a text-based communication channel may be transmitted to the first device in response to the first message. A second invitation may be transmitted to a second device to join the text-based communication channel with the server configured to retain context of the text-based communication channel. The system may receive a second message transmitted from the second device and may transmit a third invitation to the first device to join the text-based communication channel in response to the second message.

Abstract: Systems and methods for prefetching items of content associated with commercial websites, comprising receiving a request from a user device for data for a first interface, and in response, identifying items of content that are to be included in one or more second interfaces that are accessible by user-selectable links in the first interface. Data for the first interface and the items of content are then transmitted to the user device. After the transmission, a second request is received from the user device for a particular second interface, based on a selection of a particular user-selectable link in the first interface. In response, data corresponding to the particular second interface that does not include the items of content included in the particular second interface is transmitted to the user device to enable output of the second interface with its respective items of content.

Abstract: A textured release sheet includes a substrate, which has been electron beam treated, including a top side and a bottom side. A matte surface is formed on the bottom side thereof, wherein the matte surface of the surfacing material is a coating of an radiation curable material applied to the bottom side of the substrate. The coating is an UV curable acrylate mixture applied to the substrate, wherein the UV curable acrylate mixture is irradiated with UV-radiation via an excimer laser emitter to produce a UV-irradiated layer wherein the UV curable acrylate mixture is only crosslinked on the surface thereof, which produces a matting surface through the effects of a micro-convolution.

Abstract: Computerized systems and methods for efficiently refreshing financial data for financial accounts for login identifications of users at respective financial institutions in a batch data pull via a communication network. The login identifications are prioritized for being refreshed based on determining a probability that each login identification has a new transaction since the last successful refresh of the login identification using a learning algorithm utilizing past financial data. The login identifications are then refreshed in a batch data pull from the financial institutions in an order from highest probability to lowest probability of having a new transaction since the last batch data pull.
