  • Patent number: 9690876
    Abstract: A method is provided for providing superviews of geospatial arrangements. Users may configure a superview by providing a unit(s) and filtering criteria. Subunits belonging to the unit(s) and satisfying the filtering criteria may be displayed in a graphical superview, including additional pertinent information relative to the subunits. The graphical superview may be updated automatically to reflect the most up to date information. A server may be preconfigured to receive a superview configuration and automatically cause the corresponding graphical superview to be displayed on a client device.

  • Publication number: 20170060602
    Abstract: Apparatuses, methods, and computer program products are provided for automatically internationalizing grammatical output for presentation to a user of a program based on the user's locale. In particular, AST transformations are described that cause a compiler to generate a programming method during compilation of a portion of source code containing a predefined token, where the programming method is incorporated (by the compiler) into a file produced by the compiler and serves to call an instance of a message bundle file that provides translation of grammatical output without requiring the programmer/developer to manually incorporate individual message bundles into each portion of source code to be internationalized.

  • Publication number: 20160283672
    Abstract: A healthcare information processing apparatus, method and computer program product are provided for creating and configuring logical units, and providing hierarchy-independent data associated with physical units, logical units, and/or facilities. Physical units may be defined by subunits having a common or similar physical location. A logical unit may include a user-configured grouping of subunits selected without regard to physical locations. Upon request from a client terminal, hierarchy-independent data, including accumulated summary data may be provided for any number of physical units, logical units, and/or facilities. Users associated with roles of varying levels within an organization may therefore easily access desired data, independent of hierarchies of the respective data.

  • Publication number: 20150170075
    Abstract: A method is provided for creating, configuring, and displaying logical units. A logical unit may include underlying data defining subunits defined based on a physical location and may be stored in a centralized system. Upon request from a client terminal, a graphical logical unit may provide a visual representation of the subunits, or rooms. A user may view specified rooms from various areas in a consolidated view, as opposed to accessing a geospatial arrangement for each individual area of interest.
