Patents by Inventor Dan Matheson

Dan Matheson has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Collaboration session recording model
    Patent number: 7184940
    Abstract: A decision tracking object model and interface which captures and stores administrative and substantive meeting information, along with their associated relationships, in an object model database is presented. Each object model includes information and relationships that are accessible via a publicly defined interface.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 2, 2005
    Date of Patent: February 27, 2007
    Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.

  • Innovation information management model
    Patent number: 7050872
    Abstract: An Innovation Information Management data tracking object model and interface which captures and stores product ideas, requirements, constraints, design alternatives and functions, along with their associated relationships, in an object model database is presented. Each object model includes information and relationships that are accessible via a publicly defined interface. In one embodiment, when an object model is saved to the object model database, the information objects making up the Innovation Information Management object model, along with their relationships to other objects, are saved in separate relational database files. Because the different innovation information is separated and stored in a tool neutral persistent form, any application can access the information contained in those objects.

  • CAD data model with design notes
    Patent number: 6718218
    Abstract: A CAD data object model and interface which captures and stores information relating to CAD data, including geometry, topology, design notes, and non-geometry drawing information, along with their associated relationships, is presented. The information and relationships are separately captured and accessible via a publicly defined interface. In one embodiment, the captured CAD data objects saved in separate relational database files, separated according to type. Because the CAD model objects are stored in a tool neutral persistent form, any application can access the information contained in those objects.
