  • Publication number: 20240404412
    Abstract: Decision making support is provided. The method comprises receiving input of a current data file, wherein the current data file includes a valid time for features within the current data file. The valid time of the current data file is compared with Aeronautical Information Regulation and Control (AIRAC) cycle effective dates. Responsive to a discrepancy between the valid time of the current data file and the AIRAC cycle effective dates, the system determines if a feature change resulting from the discrepancy is flight critical. The feature change and a proposed solution with suggested text are displayed to a user in a dashboard. Responsive to input of agreement from the user to the proposed solution, the system automatically creates a change notice with the suggested text, a business process management ticket, and a data entry into a database.

  • Patent number: 6321929
    Abstract: A shopping basket has four walls, a bottom and handles for allowing the basket to be carried, and one wall of the basket is provided with a section that projects either outwardly from or inwardly into the shopping basket and is adapted to serve as a receptacle for a bottle or can. This projecting section is integrally formed with the shopping basket wall, is cylindrically shaped with a radius slightly larger than that of a typical can or bottle and has a flat bottom retaining wall so that it is suited to hold securely an open, fluid-filled can or bottle without spilling its contents. Thus, a shopper using the shopping basket will easily be able to drink from a can or bottle and then place it within the receptacle formed from the shopping basket wall, removing it and replacing it as desired, so that the shopper can conveniently and selectively shop and drink from the can or bottle as desired.
