Abstract: System and methods for infectious disease prevention includes transmitting, via a server, a facility credential associated with a facility configured to identify a user operating on an application deployed by server on a mobile computing device. The server receives a user identification test code (UITC) associated with a status of an infectious disease of the user. The server then generates a two-dimensional code associated with the facility credential based on the UITC. The server determines if the two-dimensional code is valid for permitting access to the facility based on a vaccine indicator confirming that the user has been vaccinated for the infectious disease. Thereafter, the server activates the two-dimensional code on the mobile computing device for a predetermined period of time.

Abstract: System and method for infectious disease prevention includes transmitting, via a server, a facility credential associated with a facility configured to identify a user operating on an application deployed by server from a mobile computing device. The server receives a user identification test code (UITC) associated with a status of an infectious disease of the user. The server then generates a two-dimensional code associated with the facility credential based on the UITC. The server determines if the two-dimensional code is valid for permitting access to the facility based on the status of the infectious disease. Thereafter, the server activates the two-dimensional code on the mobile computing device for a predetermined period of time. A gatekeeper device responds to the two-dimensional code from the mobile computing device and then permits the user access to the facility within the predetermined period of time based on the facility credential and the two-dimensional code.

In response to selection of the link, construction information for potential inclusion in the template specification as a customization thereof corresponding to the selected computer link is retrieved from a database of construction information and is displayed adjacent the template specification.

Abstract: Systems and methods for carton- and item-level tracking of deliveries to retail locations in a supply chain are described. A central shipment management system receives over a network, from one or more retail distribution centers associated with a plurality of retail locations, advanced shipping notice information describing one or more shipments of pluralities of cartons to a pool. The central computer system also receives, from the retailer or distribution center, product information including category and description information for items contained in a shipment to at least one retail location of the retailer. The received advance shipping notice information and the product information are processed. The processing applies one or more business logic rules to determine an estimated delivery date of the shipment to the at least one retail location. A portal accessible over the network by associates of the retail location is provided.

Abstract: A healthcare and medical information system comprising an administrator interface configured to communicate with a device, to integrate healthcare and medical information for a plurality of individuals including a user of the device, and to provide the device access to and sharing of the healthcare and medical information associated with the user of the device. Also disclosed is an apparatus comprising a processor configured to remotely access personal healthcare and medical information of a user registered with a device on a database of integrated healthcare and medical information for a group of individuals, and enable a second device to remotely access at least some of the healthcare and medical information of the user at the database.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for processing of an original batch of documents in which any document of the original batch that fails to comply with the predefined specification is identified to be a non-compliant document. At least one non-compliant batch is then formed that contains the non-compliant documents. The non-compliant batch is distinct from at least one compliant batch that contains any documents that do comply with the predefined specification. At least one of the non-compliant and compliant batches advantageously includes a plurality of documents. The complaint batch(es) may then be forwarded for further processing without awaiting rework of the non-complaint documents included in the non-compliant batch(es).

Abstract: Techniques for storing electronic documents include defining multiple logical storage locations, with each logical storage location corresponding to a respective first set of data parameters, and storing electronic documents in the logical storage locations. Each electronic document is stored in a logical storage location having a particular corresponding first set of data parameters. The particular corresponding first set of data parameters is associated with the electronic document, and the electronic document is indexed within the logical storage location based on a second set of data parameters.

Abstract: Systems and techniques for distributing items for processing include receiving a request for a batch of items to be processed and determining whether a number of available items exceeds a first predetermined threshold. A batch of the available items is sent in response to the request if the number of available items exceeds the first predetermined threshold. However, if the number of available items does not exceed the first predetermined threshold, a determination is made as to whether a time period associated with the available items exceeds a second predetermined threshold. If so, a batch of the available items is sent.
