Patents by Inventor David Albert Coleman

David Albert Coleman 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).

  • Systems, methods and computer program products for determining parameters for chemical synthesis
    Patent number: 7724257
    Abstract: The database is populated with target chemicals, corresponding listings of reagent chemicals, corresponding listings of equipment and corresponding listings of procedures. The database is then searched in response to user identification of a target chemical. In response, a listing is displayed of reagent chemicals that are used to synthesize the target chemical, equipment that is used to synthesize the target chemical, and a procedure that is used to synthesize the target chemical by reacting the reagent chemicals in the equipment according to the procedure. An icon-based reaction editor and/or context-sensitive Boolean query option generators may be provided. A reaction template may be used to perform predictive chemistry. A reaction relay may be used to graphically display related chemicals and procedures using a hub and spoke arrangement.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 19, 2007
    Date of Patent: May 25, 2010
    Assignee: Symyx Solutions, Inc.
    Inventors: Robin Young Smith, William Brian Ballard, David Albert Coleman

  • Systems, methods and computer program products for determining parameters for chemical synthesis and for supplying the reagents, equipment and/or chemicals synthesized thereby
    Publication number: 20020169566
    Abstract: In response to a user query that identifies a target chemical, a listing is displayed of reagent chemicals that are used to synthesize the target chemical. A listing also is displayed of equipment that is used to synthesize the target chemical. A listing also is displayed of a procedure that is used to synthesize the target chemical by reacting the reagent chemicals in the equipment according to the procedure. User input is accepted to electronically order the reagent chemicals that are used to synthesize the target chemical, the target chemical itself and/or the equipment that is used to synthesize the target chemical. In response, a transaction is performed to electronically order the reagent chemicals that are used to synthesize the target chemical, the equipment that is used to synthesize the target chemical and/or the target chemical itself.
