  • Patent number: 12430825
    Abstract: Toggling between different arrangements of discrete graphical elements conveying representations of alphanumeric data in a non-alphanumeric manner includes: causing an initial arrangement of tiles on a display. The tiles are associated with items including first and second characteristics having first and second alphanumeric values, and each item is associated with a common objective. Each tile adopts first and second visual characteristics. The tiles are grouped based on the second visual characteristics, and are arranged to visualize progress toward the common objective. In response to a trigger, underlying first alphanumeric values of each item are aggregated on a grouping-by-grouping basis, and the groupings are merged into an associated merged tile expressing the second visual characteristic. The merged tiles have different sizes based on the aggregating of the underlying associated first alphanumeric values.

  • Patent number: 12432272
    Abstract: Provided are systems, methods, and computer-program products for a proxy network that can determine, for a set of objects, an initial differential, where the initial differential is determined using a rules data store of a host network. The proxy network can further determine a supplemental differential for the set of objects. The proxy network can further determine a final differential that is the sum of the initial differential and the supplemental differential. The proxy network can further determine a final sum for the set of objects that is the object value less the final differential. The proxy network can further generate an outbound data packet that includes values corresponding to the set of objects and the final sum. When the host network receives the outbound data packet, the host network can modify an object data store using the values corresponding to the set of objects and the final sum.
