Patent number: 11960459Abstract: Systems and methods are described for merging customer profiles, such as may be implemented by a computer-implemented contact center service. In some aspects, a subset of profiles may be determined that satisfy merging criteria, where individual profiles include a plurality of data fields. At least one value in a first data field that conflicts between at least two profiles may be identified. Next a merged value may be selected for the first data field based on data deduplication criteria, where the data deduplication criteria includes at least one indicator of accuracy of values of the plurality of data fields. As a result of a determination that at least the subset of profiles of the group of profiles meet the merging criteria, at least the subset of profiles may be combined into a combined profile using the merged value.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2021Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Jan Henrik Jonsson, Shadie Hijazi, Davor Golac, Kuangyou Yao, Yang Song, Shobhit Gupta, Ian James Boetius MacClancy, Lanxin Zhang, Hongtao Liu, Austin M Nevins, Amy Lee, Meng Xiao Wang, Blake Stephens

Publication number: 20230388042Abstract: A wireless communication system having base stations, remotely located terminal units and a base station controller. The base stations and the remotely located terminal units communicate data over operational wireless communication links between them. The base stations include respective in-channel detectors and out-of-channel detectors for detecting radar or other extraneous received signals. The in-channel detectors analyse signals over the operational communication links. The out-of-channel detectors include respective out-of-channel receiver elements that monitor possibly available channels alternative to the respective operational communication link channels. The base station controller registers whether channels are available or not for communication links, and allocates to the base stations respective target channel parameters including frequencies available for operational and alternative communication links.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 7, 2023Publication date: November 30, 2023Applicant: OCADO INNOVATION LIMITEDInventors: David SHARP, Amy STEPHENS, Montague Fraser BARLOW, Adam Nikolai GREEN, Fraser Murray EDWARDS

Patent number: 10392888Abstract: Apparatus and adapter are usable for aligning downhole torch apparatuses and cutting devices, including axial pyro torches, circulating pyro torches, and radial cutting and perforating torches, within a wellbore for removal of one or more downhole obstructions. The torch and/or cutting apparatus comprises a body having a nozzle adapted to project a fuel load, such as molten thermite or molten thermite with a polymer, in a direction aligned with the obstruction. The adapter comprises protruding elements for eliminating or diminishing damage to the area surrounding the obstruction, including the inner walls of the wellbore and/or casing, and can further comprise centralizers for alignment of the apparatus with the obstruction, within the wellbore.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2016Date of Patent: August 27, 2019Assignee: ROBERTSON INTELLECTUAL PROPERTIES, LLCInventors: Michael C. Robertson, Antony F. Grattan, Douglas J. Streibich, Amy Stephens, William F. Boelte, Cory Huggins
