Patent number: 11875420Abstract: Techniques are described that provide a centralized system to coordinate disparate teams involved in handling various tasks, including, for example, the tasks relating to settling the affairs of an estate. In one described example, such techniques provide a centralized estate resource system (ERS) to create, manage, track, and coordinate task checklists and actions for each of the teams including interactions between teams. The ERS may assign specific personnel within each team to a given estate, send notifications and warnings to appropriate team members when tasks are due or complete, and facilitate messaging between team members to communicate when information is needed or has become available. The ERS may provide updated status and information across teams without violating privacy or security regulations, as may be the case with email, text messages, or voice messages.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2021Date of Patent: January 16, 2024Assignee: Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.Inventors: Mary Ann Watt Lagnese, Margaret Melchior, Scott Stout, Adam Davis, Catalina Johnson, Paige Wilbur, Alicia Moore

Patent number: 11875185Abstract: A computer-implemented method according to one embodiment includes receiving data associated with a driver performing actions. At least some of the actions trigger events emitted by an event emitter. Information, from the received data, about the performed actions is logged in an action log. An event observer is instructed to log the events emitted by the event emitter that the event observer observes. The observed events are logged in an event log. The information of the action log and information of the event log is compared based on a rule, and a validity of the event emitter is determined based on results of the comparing. A computer program product according to another embodiment includes a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith. The program instructions are readable and/or executable by a processor to cause the processor to perform the foregoing method.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2021Date of Patent: January 16, 2024Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: James Collins Davis, Willard Adams Davis

Publication number: 20230371472Abstract: An animal leash apparatus, attachable to a pet, includes an elongated flexible member or leash and an elongated outer member. The elongated outer member imparts rigidity to an elongated, distal portion of the elongated flexible member or leash, and is configured to maintain a predetermined shape and thereby maintain the elongated flexible member in the predetermined shape such that the elongated flexible member and elongated outer member extend away from a pet's legs. The elongated flexible member may include a clip, facilitating securing the elongated flexible member to a pet collar or harness. The elongated flexible member may include a handle, facilitating grasping the elongated flexible member by a user.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 10, 2023Publication date: November 23, 2023Inventor: Adam Davis

Patent number: 10949937Abstract: Techniques are described that provide a centralized system to coordinate the disparate teams involved in settling or reconciling the affairs of a given estate. These techniques provide a centralized estate resource system (ERS) to create, manage, track, and coordinate task checklists and actions for each of the teams including interactions between teams. The ERS may assign specific personnel within each team to a given estate, send notifications and warnings to appropriate team members when tasks are due or complete, and facilitate messaging between team members to communicate when information is needed or has become available. The ERS may provide updated status and information across teams without violating privacy or security regulations, as may be the case with email, text messages, or voice messages. In addition, the ERS may provide a centralized repository for information, thus avoiding repeated queries for the same information and documents to the decedent's representative.Type: GrantFiled: October 31, 2016Date of Patent: March 16, 2021Assignee: Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.Inventors: Mary Ann Watt Lagnese, Margaret Melchior, Scott Stout, Adam Davis, Catalina Johnson, Paige Wilbur, Alicia Moore

Patent number: 10880372Abstract: Multi-user collaborative software applications may synchronize data between multiple users or multiple devices. There are multiple existing ways to synchronize data. Some of these synchronization methods, such as file locking, are easy to implement but have performance or functionality drawbacks. Operational transformation (OT) is a high performance synchronization method, but difficult and time-consuming to implement in many cases, and cannot be partially implemented throughout a system. Methods and systems provide for blending operational transformation with other synchronization methods in the same collaborative software application, allowing operational transformation to be used in situations where it cannot be implemented throughout a system.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2018Date of Patent: December 29, 2020Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: David Lee Nelson, Adam Davis Kraft, Erin Rebecca Rhode, Amal Kumar Dorai

Patent number: 10688326Abstract: A dual function shovel and rhino tool that allows a firefighter (or other user) to easily and quickly shift between a shovel and a rhino. The dual function tool is particularly useful in wildland firefighting since only one tool needs to be carried. The dual function tool is not limited to firefighting use but can also be used when one needs two tools in the work of operation they are performing.Type: GrantFiled: January 24, 2019Date of Patent: June 23, 2020Inventor: Adam Davis

Patent number: 10516880Abstract: There is provided a coordinated view-display device, a system for creating a three-dimensional display, and a process of creating a three-dimensional display. The display device includes a rotatable portion and a plurality of light-emitting elements connected to the rotatable portion. Rotation of the rotatable portion rotates the light-emitting elements and displays a sequence of images corresponding with segmented image data as an illusion of a continuous three-dimensional image. The system includes an array arranged and disposed to gather segmented image data and a display arranged and disposed to display a sequence of images corresponding with the segmented image data. The displaying forms an illusion of a continuous three-dimensional image. The process includes gathering segmented image data and displaying a sequence of images corresponding with the segmented image data. The displaying forms may provide an illusion of a continuous three-dimensional image.Type: GrantFiled: February 21, 2017Date of Patent: December 24, 2019Assignee: TAIT TOWERS MANUFACTURING, LLCInventors: Owen Byrne, Boris Kalaba, Adam Davis, Ryan Mast
