Abstract: A system according to one embodiment includes an access control device comprising a lock mechanism configured to secure access to a passageway, and a UWB accessory device configured to receive a credential of the mobile device via Bluetooth communication, determine, using UWB ranging of the UWB accessory device, a location of a mobile device relative to the passageway secured by the lock mechanism of the access control device, determine whether a user of the mobile device intends to access the passageway based on the determined location of the user relative to the passageway, and communicate an indication that the user intends to access the passageway to the electronic lock via Bluetooth communication, and wherein the access control device is configured to unlock the lock mechanism in response to the indication that the user intends to access the passageway.

Abstract: The invention provides a method, system and computer-readable medium for storing images with related information in a relational database and using the information to order available products for a selected image over a network. A unique identifier is generated for each image, allowing different types of searches of the relational database to be performed including product-based and image-based searches. A selection of a returned image causes a cut-down version of the image and all available products to be displayed on a page. If a product is selected, a server enables a transaction for a user to order the selected product. A HTTP Cookie may be employed to store a user identifier, allowing use of user profiles for customization of particular options and displayed products.

Abstract: The Accounts Receivable System's (ARS) functions are divided into five separate modules, which includes a Credit Inquiry Module, a Remittance Processing Module, an Accounts Receivable Claim Module, a Maintenance Module, and an Administration Module. These modules are integrated with each other and interface with the client's Order, Ship, Bill (OSB) system, for smooth functioning. The ARS automatically upgrades the modules to the client by downloading on a real-time basis as they are being implemented at a central site. The ARS's interface capabilities include built-in methods for report extraction to get the data required for particular situations or clients.

Abstract: The Account Receivables System's Remittance Processing Module accepts funds in domestic and foreign currency and translates the funds into the required local currency for reporting purposes. The Remittance Processing Modules automatically generates and also performs exchange gain and loss calculations Auto Draft and Reverse Application functions. The Remittance Processing Module accepts funds electronically, and, under certain conditions, automatically applies and updates a customer's account in the most efficient manner.

Abstract: An Accounts Receivable System (ARS) provides an option to a client to outsource the client's accounts receivable function. The ARS is divided into five separate modules, which includes a Credit Inquiry Module, a Remittance Processing Module, an Accounts Receivable Claim Module, a Maintenance Module, and an Administration Module. The ARS provides a full range of trade receivables Credit & Collection services involving credit evaluation, credit granting, customer collection and account reconciliation, cash receipt, application and banking, all account receivables (A/R) reporting, consolidation, including customer statement preparation and mailing, ending with direct feeds to the client's general ledger system (G/L) for the client's financial statement preparation.

Abstract: The invention provides a method, system and computer-readable medium for storing images with related information in a relational database and using the information to order available products for a selected image over a network. Tag and business information may be associated with an image in the database and a unique image identifier is generated for each image. Different types of searches of the relational database may be performed including product based and image based. Affirmative results from searches are returned as images and/or products that are displayed in pages. The returned images also include information indicating available products. The selection of a returned image causes a cut-down version of the image and all of the available products to be displayed in the same page. When an available product is selected, a server enables a transaction for a user to order the selected product. A Hyper Text Transport Protocol (HTTP) Cookie is employed to store a copy of a client identifier at a client.

Abstract: A fully integrated computer rack mount system comprising: at least one shelving unit configured to store computers; at least one electrical panel coupled to at least one of the at least one shelving unit, the at least one electrical panel configured to receive power from an external source; at least one network panel, coupled to at least one of the at least one shelving units, the at least one network panel configured to receive network connectivity from an outside source; a raceway apparatus coupled to the back plane or the front-plane of each of the at least one shelving unit, the raceway apparatus comprising a horizontal raceway and a vertical member, said vertical member comprising a power interface and a network interface; where said raceway apparatus is configured to allow each computer stored in the shelving units to be proximately connectable to the power interface and network interface; where the at least one electrical panel is coupled via said horizontal raceway to each power interface; and where t

Abstract: A fluidized catalytic cracking process using a high efficiency regenerator comprising a coke combustor, a dilute phase transport riser, and a second fluidized bed with catalyst recirculation to the coke combustor, is operated to reduce NO.sub.x emissions in the regenerator flue gas. The amount of catalyst recirculation from the second fluidized bed to the coke combustor or combustion air addition or preferably both are adjusted based on continuous or periodic measurement of a process parameter of the FCC regenerator which directly or indirectly measures the NO.sub.x content of regenerator flue gas. Operation with restricted air or catalyst recirculation degrades coke combustor operation, shifts some regeneration to downstream portions of the regenerator, and reduces NO.sub.x emissions.

Abstract: A fishing casting practice device for use with a fishing rod having extending fishing line. The device includes at least one casting target having contact engaging material on the exterior thereof. A lure replacement projectile has a line connection mechanism to secure an end of the fishing line to the lure replacement projectile. At least a portion of the lure replacement projectile is covered with hook engaging material capable of engaging the contact engaging material on the target when brought into contact therewith.
