Abstract: A method of operating a resource pooling system involves receiving resource deposits from a first set of member companies into a resource pool, the resource deposits that includes excess resources for operating the first set of member companies. The method lends resources from the resource pool to a second set of member companies in response to each company of the second set of member companies requesting resources in an amount that exceeds a total resource deposit for the company. In the method, the first set of member companies and the second set of member companies form a resource co-operative.

Abstract: A system for generating a graphical user interface for providing graphical representations of data processed by one or more machine learned networks that allows a user to quickly compare various metrics. In some cases, the graphical user interface may be configured to present metrics related to geographic locations of various entities as well as demographic data of individuals. The metrics may be generated by a machine learned networks, such as a neural network. In some cases, the graphical user interface may be determined based on a type of device, such as a smartphone, laptop, desktop, tablet, or the like.

Abstract: A system utilizing a web integration service to pull data from disparate computer server systems, and a normalizing module to generate a normalized data set utilized by an indexing module across a de-coupling boundary to generate a search index. An outflow module utilizes results from the search index and hierarchical grouping control structures to generate customized data flows to client devices with improved performance.

Abstract: Turbo or super charged intake tract diverter valve system, upstream of a throttle valve, includes a closure means (10) for a diversion aperture (4.1) in the intake tract (3) to vent pressurised gases within to a bypass path or atmosphere; the closure means having a transfer aperture (12) facilitating a net force due to a pressure differential on its opposite sides of the closure means (10) so as to close or keep closed the diversion aperture (4.1). When gas pressure on opposite sides of the closure means is equal, and when an upstream side (10.1) of the closure means (10) has a pressure greater than a downstream side (5.1), then it will open the diversion aperture (4.1). An actuation means opens a control aperture (6) to create the necessary pressure differential on the closure means (10) to thereby cause same to open the diversion aperture (4.1).

Abstract: A method of operating a resource credit exchange for a resource of a particular type operates a resource forecaster on the resource model input to generate a resource position and a resource flow and applies the resource position and the resource flow to the resource credit exchange, which is coupled to a plurality of resource provider institutions. The resource credit exchange is operated to generate a digital contract based on the resource position and resource flow and initiate an outflow of resource deposits from a subset of the resource provider institutions to the member company under terms of the digital contract.

Abstract: An adsorbent for perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances, wherein the adsorbent comprises one or more proteins. The one or more proteins may be selected from plant proteins, albumins, globulins, edestin, glycinin and/or beta-conglycinin. Use of an adsorbent for treatment of a material contaminated with perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances. There is also provided a process for the treatment of ground water contaminated with perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances, wherein the contaminated ground water is pumped to the surface and directed to an adsorption step comprising the adsorbent.

The platform can generate graphical user interfaces that facilitate entry and presentation of information associated with the loan officers and the loan service providers. The graphical user interface provided by the platform can be configured to facilitate the manipulation of information to provide an indication of a value of a loan officer to a loan service provider.

Abstract: Facilitating rendering of a digital gratuity, with or without an associated value, to a service worker by a customer. A communication device associated with a geographical area and at least one service worker can be detected by a mobile computing device associated with a customer. The mobile computing device can receive signals from the communication device. A location can be determined for the mobile computing device associated with the customer and a determination can be made as to whether a service worker is within a threshold distance from the mobile computing device of the customer. In response to determining that a service worker is within a threshold distance of the mobile communication device, a rendering of a digital gratuity by the customer to the service worker can be effectuated.
