  • Publication number: 20200311292
    Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for providing user interface (UI)-based modifications to adjust and interact with data exchange splits. An example client device can include can identify a data exchange (DE) associated with at least three entities, the DE associated with a total value. A visualization representing the DE can be presented via a UI and can include a chart comprising the total value of the DE exchange divided into value areas that are each associated with a particular entity. In response to a detection of input associated with a selection of an edge between a first and second value area, the combined value area associated with the first and second value areas can be locked. In response to detected movement input associated with the edge, the relative values of the first and second inside the combined value area can be adjusted in the visualization.

  • Patent number: 10762481
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include processes that securely approve and execute exchanges of data between systems, apparatuses, and devices in a computing environment. For example, a terminal device may establish communications with a client device across a direct channel of communication, and may initiate an exchange of data with that additional device across the direct communications channel. The initiated data exchange may be characterized by a value of a data-exchange parameter, and the terminal device may determine to authorize the current data exchange in real-time based on cryptographically secure distributed ledger data maintained by the client device and provided to the terminal device across the direct communications channel. Further, and based on transmitted confirmation data, the client device may generate additional, cryptographically secure of the distributed ledger data to reflect the authorized data exchange.

  • Publication number: 20200225845
    Abstract: There is provided a gesture-based GUI (system, method, etc.) to facilitate input of numerical data using a continuous swipe gesture. A gesture-based I/O device displays a GUI presenting a gross number and a gross number control to initially define a specific number for further defining with specificity. In response to a first gesture (hard click or pause) interacting with the gross number control, the specific number is initially defined as the gross number and a finer number control is presented to refine the specific number. In response to a continuous swipe gesture continuing from the first gesture and interacting with the finer number control, the interface further defines the specific number with finer specificity where a quantum varies in response to a direction and distance of the continuous swipe. Successive finer number controls may be also be presented to refine the specific number by continuing the swipe.

  • Patent number: 10673777
    Abstract: Novel tools and techniques might provide for implementing intent-based network services orchestration. In some embodiments, a computing system might receive, over a network, a request for network services from a customer. The request for network services might include desired performance parameters for the requested network services, without information regarding any of specific hardware, specific hardware type, specific location, or specific network for providing the requested network services. The computing system might allocate network resources from one or more networks, based at least in part on the desired performance parameters. Based on a determination that at least one network can no longer provide at least one network resource having the desired performance parameters, the computing system might allocate at least one other network resource from at least one second network, based at least in part on network performance metrics, and based at least in part on the desired performance parameters.

  • Publication number: 20200151684
    Abstract: A system comprises a non-transitory machine readable storage medium storing instructions and a database identifying a plurality of assets and a state of each asset. The instructions configure a processor for receiving updates to a distributed electronic ledger managed by plural peer processors. Each update includes an event or change affecting one of the assets. The peer processors verify portions of the ledger describing each event or change. At least one of the updates has not yet been recorded in the ledger at a time of the receiving. The processor computes a state of each asset, based on the updates, receives a request for a state of one of the assets; and responds to the request, reflecting each event and change affecting that asset. The response is performed without waiting for the peer processors to verify an update that has not yet been recorded in the ledger.

  • Publication number: 20200118094
    Abstract: A processor receives a signal representing data including event information detailing an event involving an entity having a registered ownership interest in a product and loads a portion of a distributed electronic ledger for tracking ownership information associated with the product. The distributed electronic ledger includes, within a block thereof and associated with the product, an event trigger list including entity data associated with each entity having a registered ownership interest in the product and a rules engine including rules associated with event triggers in the event trigger list. The processor determines whether a triggering event corresponding to the event is stored in the event trigger list and, when the event has a corresponding triggering event, determines the associated rule within the rules engine. The processor updates and saves the distributed electronic ledger by performing an action specified by the determined associated rule.
