Publication number: 20240087063Abstract: Systems and methods for document transformation and recordation are provided. Documents for a transaction of real property are identified based on a jurisdiction in which the real property is located. Each document includes a plurality of data fields and each data field is associated with a data field identifier. A data value is received in at least one of the data fields of one or more of the documents. The data fields in the documents associated with the data field identifiers that match the data field identifiers of the data fields in which the data values are received are identified. The identified data fields are automatically populated with the data values based on the data field identifiers. Completeness rules are applied to the documents by verifying all required documents for completing the transaction in the jurisdiction are satisfied. Documents or information pertaining the documents can be stored in a blockchain.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 22, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Edward Wu, Guy Gal, Hilary Saunders, Stephen Saunders, Christopher Dzoba, Prescott Prue, Zachary Karrasch, Jeffrey Judkins, Elizabeth Paris, Adriano Castro, Mark J.

Patent number: 7720459Abstract: The remote collection of data for the account of an entity (2) uses a data communications network (26) operated by a third party (28) with respect to the entity. It is characterised in that the access to said data communication network (26) by the entity for remote data collection is governed dynamically by said third party (28) as a function of the spare data-carrying capacity of the communications network. The third party (28) may thus grant the entity (2) access to the communications network (26) when the level of the third party's own data traffic on said network is below a determined threshold value, corresponding to an occupation below peak capacity. The approach finds applications notably in the field of automatic meter reading (AMR), where the network operator, e.g. a cellular telephone operator, is a third party with respect to the utilities company (2), and the collected data is meter reading data from remote meters (14a-14g) sent via GPRS interfaces (16a-16d).Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2005Date of Patent: May 18, 2010Assignee: Actaris UK LimitedInventors: Christopher Shelley, Christopher Saunders

Patent number: 6027305Abstract: A stator apparatus for mounting upstream of an intake to a rotating machine which blows pressurized air, or other media, from discharge orifices at a pressure and velocity to minimize velocity defects or turbulence in the wake of the stator prior to the plane of rotation of a rotating member of the machine. The rotating member then encounters a substantially uniform velocity medium at the plane of incidence, which substantially reduces uneven loading on the rotating member, thereby reducing noise and reducing high-cycle failure of that rotating element. The distribution and size of the orifices is determinable by placing the stator apparatus in a wind tunnel, or on the intake of a apparatus simulating the intake of the rotating machine, measuring the turbulence or velocity defects in the stator wake, and modifying the distribution and size of the orifices until the turbulence is minimized.Type: GrantFiled: August 5, 1998Date of Patent: February 22, 2000Assignee: Virginia Tech Intellectual Properties, Inc.Inventors: Wing-Fai Ng, Thomas A. Leitch, Christopher A. Saunders
