Publication number: 20250217577Abstract: A method may include causing a client computer to display a graphical user interface including a content panel configured to display a selected document in a publication-controlled editing mode and in a synchronous editing mode and a navigational panel including a hierarchical element tree. The method may further include, in response to a selection, from a first user, of a selectable element in the hierarchical element tree, causing the document to be displayed in the content panel in the synchronous editing mode. The method may further include, in response to receiving from the first user a request to edit the document in the publication-controlled editing mode, causing the document to be displayed in the content panel in the publication-controlled editing mode.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 28, 2023Publication date: July 3, 2025Inventors: Fletcher Richman, Venkatram Ramanathan, Samuel Lucas, Alexander Knight, Rick Messer

Patent number: 10184348Abstract: A system and method are provided for controlling turbine blade tip-to-static structure clearance in a gas turbine engine installed on an aircraft. Mode control data are processed to determine that a fuel-saving mode is enabled, and aircraft data are processed to determine that the aircraft gas turbine engine is generating a substantially constant thrust. The turbine blade tip-to-static structure clearance in the aircraft gas turbine engine is minimized upon determining that both the aircraft gas turbine engine is generating a substantially constant thrust and the fuel-saving mode is enabled. The turbine blade tip-to-static structure clearance in the aircraft gas turbine engine is then selectively increased to a predetermined clearance, and a change in aircraft gas turbine engine thrust is prevented until the predetermined clearance is achieved.Type: GrantFiled: December 5, 2013Date of Patent: January 22, 2019Assignee: HONEYWELL INTERNATIONAL INC.Inventors: Gregory C. Carlucci, Glenn Alexander Knight, Jim Rumbo, Dennis D Loots, Roger Peckham, Marko Bacic, James Kenneth Haberstock

Patent number: 9892197Abstract: Technologies are generally described for systems, methods and devices effective to remove information from a network such as the Internet. In some examples, a device may include a memory including instructions and a processor configured in communication with the memory. The processor may be configured effective to receive user information relating to a user and search the network using the user information. In response to the search, the processor may find additional information relating to the user stored in the network. The processor may receive a first request to remove particular information from the network. The particular information may be part of the additional information and the particular information may be removable by a second user. The processor may send a second request to remove the particular information from the network.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 2016Date of Patent: February 13, 2018Assignee: EMPIRE TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT LLCInventors: Patrick John Ennis, Alexander Knight, Vlad Grigore Dabija, Timothy Martin Londergan, David Walter Ash, Dominic Dan Suciu, Raghuram Madabushi

Patent number: 9392049Abstract: Technologies are provided for identifying context associated with received content and automatically forwarding the content to an associated communication network for posting. In some examples, a user may create content for posting to one or more communication networks and send the content over a network for posting to a first communication network. Upon receipt of the content for posting, the first communication network may identify a context of the received content and may associate the context with a second communication network based on a set of content forwarding rules. The first communication network may automatically forward the received content to the associated second communication network for posting at the second communication network. Additionally, a third party entity may be configured to monitor content received at a first communication network, identify a context of the received content, and automatically forward the received content to the associated second communication network for posting.Type: GrantFiled: June 19, 2012Date of Patent: July 12, 2016Assignee: EMPIRE TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT LLCInventors: Patrick John Ennis, Alexander Knight, Vlad Grigore Dabija, Timothy Martin Londergan, Dominic Dan Suciu, Raghuram Madabushi, David Walter Ash

Publication number: 20140006162Abstract: Technologies are provided for building a profile for a person based on an asserted interest and actual participation of the person in activities associated with the asserted interest. An online event such as a social networking event involving the person online may be a reflection of either their aspirational self or their real self. In some examples, a hypothesis may be generated as to whether it is likely to be aspirational or real. The hypothesis may be proven or disproven by identifying activities actually participated in by the person, in other words, comparing their actions and/or behavior in the physical and/or virtual world with what they assert about themselves in the virtual world. The profiles for the aspirational and real personas may be accurately constructed based on the hypothesis and used, for example, in targeted marketing.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 30, 2012Publication date: January 2, 2014Applicant: Empire Technology Development, LLCInventors: Patrick John Ennis, Alexander Knight, Vlad Grigore Dabija, Timothy Martin Londergan, Dominic Dan Suciu, Raghuram Madabushi, David Walter Ash

Publication number: 20130339123Abstract: Technologies are provided for verifying the group nature of a consumer request to provide a group incentive. In some examples, a consumer may purchase goods and services from a merchant over a network, and may request to take advantage of a group incentive associated with an established group. The merchant may verify that the consumer is a member of the established group before allowing the consumer to receive or use the group incentive. Upon receiving the request associated with the group incentive, the merchant may identify attributes of the consumer and/or the group the consumer claims to belong to. If the attributes match a commonality criterion, the incentive may be authorized. Additionally, the merchant may require a physical appearance of the consumer along with other group members in order to utilize the group incentive.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 19, 2012Publication date: December 19, 2013Applicant: Empire Technology Development, LLC.Inventors: Patrick John Ennis, Alexander Knight, Vlad Grigore Dabija, Timothy Martin Londergan, Dominic Dan Suciu, Raghuram Madabushi, David Walter Ash
