Publication number: 20240333741Abstract: A system for monitoring network activity data in a blockchain network is disclosed. The system may comprise a layer 1 blockchain, a layer 2 solution, and a monitoring system. The monitoring system may include a log collector, an artificial intelligence system, and a reporting system. The log collector may collect network activity data. The artificial intelligence system may analyze network activity data received from the log collector and determine a corrective action. The reporting system may display a report of network activity data. The monitoring system may be further configured to perform the corrective action.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 24, 2023Publication date: October 3, 2024Applicant: U.S. Bank National AssociationInventors: AHMED M.

Publication number: 20240330935Abstract: A system for facilitating communication between layer 2 networks is disclosed. The system may include a first layer 2 network and a second layer 2 network. One or more of the first or second layer 2 network may include a communication platform that is configured to define a protocol for establishing communication between the first and second layer 2 network. Furthermore, based at least in part on the protocol, a bridge may be generated that communicatively couples the first and second layer 2 networks. In some embodiments, generating a bridge may include generating a smart contract to facilitate communication between the first and second layer 2 networks.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 24, 2023Publication date: October 3, 2024Applicant: U.S. Bank National AssociationInventors: AHMED M.

Patent number: 10066954Abstract: Systems, devices, apparatuses, components, methods, and techniques for navigating a vehicle to a recommended parking area are provided. A method of navigating a vehicle to a parking space includes determining a destination, determining a best available parking space, and routing the vehicle to the best available parking space. Available parking spaces are determined by accessing data for parking facilities, parking meters, and GPS data of other vehicles. The best parking spaces are determined by user preferences that include one or more of distance from destination, cost of parking, and availability of particular types of parking spaces. The method further includes providing media content in the vehicle during navigation to the best available parking space.Type: GrantFiled: September 29, 2017Date of Patent: September 4, 2018Assignee: Spotify ABInventors: Christopher Swanson, Johan Oskarsson
