Abstract: Systems and methods for an interactive graphical user interface for depicting the status of a claim are provided. The system includes a database for storing claim data and a server in communication with the database. The stored claim data includes a claim workflow associated the claim. The workflow defines the processing steps associated with processing the claim. The server receives a user request to check the status of the claim. The server determines status data of the claim based on stored claim data and outputs the status data to a graphical user interface for depicting a graphical representation of the status data. The graphical representation includes a timeline corresponding to the workflow of the claim and a progress bar indicative of the status of the claim.
Abstract: One or more dynamically occurring events in a distributed data streaming system are monitored. The occurrence of at least one of the one or more dynamically occurring events is evaluated. A checkpoint operation is initiated in the distributed data streaming system based on the evaluation of the occurrence of the at least one dynamically occurring event.
Abstract: A fuel injection control method includes measuring EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) rate through a CO2 sensor measuring the amount of CO2 entering the intake side of the engine, setting an optimum SCR (Steam to Carbon Ratio) value based on the measured EGR rate, calculating the amount of steam supplied to the engine based on the measured EGR rate, calculating an actual SCR value by the ratio of the steam amount and the carbon component of the fuel supplied to the engine, comparing the actual SCR value with the optimum SCR value, calculating the SCR difference value by subtracting the optimum SCR value from the actual SCR value if the actual SCR value is greater than the optimum SCR value, calculating an additional fuel amount to be added based on the SCR difference value, and injecting fuel to the fuel reformer based on the calculated additional fuel amount.
