Abstract: An enterprise platform may retrieve, from a collaboration data store, information about a selected enterprise team. The enterprise platform may then transmit, from a set of integration tools to a workflow tool of a remote cloud-based environment, a data payload including a notification request associated with a channel. The enterprise platform may also transmit, from a runtime environment to a business communication platform of the cloud-based environment, a request to post a notification to the channel and arrange for a member of the selected enterprise team to receive an adaptive information card, pushed by the business communication platform via the channel, containing information associated with at least one of the integration tools. The member who receives the adaptive information card may also, via selection of a graphical icon on the card, respond to the business communication platform via bi-directional communication.

Abstract: A method executed by a computing device includes determining a set of identigens for each query word of a query to produce sets of identigens, where a set of identigens represents different meanings of a word of the query. The method further includes obtaining a first identigen selection for a first query word from the first set of identigens. The method further includes interpreting, using identigen pairing rules and based on the first identigen selection, the sets of identigens to produce a query entigen group. The method further includes accessing a knowledge database utilizing the query entigen group to produce a response entigen group. The method further includes generating a response to the query using the response entigen group, where the response includes at least one response word.

Abstract: A method performed by a computing device includes generating a comparative query entigen group set based on a comparative query in accordance with identigen rules, where the comparative query entigen group set represents a most likely interpretation of the comparative query. The method further includes obtaining a first response entigen group from a knowledge database based on a first comparative query entigen group of the comparative query entigen group set, where the first response entigen group substantially includes the first comparative query entigen group. The method further includes obtaining a second response entigen group from the knowledge database based on a second comparative query entigen group of the comparative query entigen group set, where the second response entigen group substantially includes the second comparative query entigen group. The method further includes generating a comparative response based on the first response entigen group and the second response entigen group.

Abstract: A method executed by a computing device includes determining a set of identigens for each phrase word of a phrase to produce sets of identigens. A set of identigens of the sets of identigens represents one or more different meanings of a phrase word of the phrase. The method further includes obtaining sensor information for one or more phrase words of the phrase. The method further includes selecting an identigen of a first set of identigens based on the sensor information to produce a first identigen selection for the first set of identigens having a selected meaning of one or more different meanings of the first phrase word. The method further includes interpreting remaining sets of identigens of the sets of identigens to produce an entigen group so that the entigen group represents a most likely meaning interpretation of the phrase.

Abstract: A method of recovering active materials from a rechargeable battery comprises placing an active material of a rechargeable battery in a cathode chamber comprising a cathode of an electrochemical cell comprising the cathode chamber, an anode chamber comprising an anode, and a membrane separating the cathode chamber from the anode chamber, contacting the active material in the cathode chamber with an electrolyte comprising an acid, ferric ions, and ferrous ions, and dissolving at least one of lithium and cobalt from the active material into the electrolyte. Related apparatuses for recovering metals from active materials of rechargeable batteries are also disclosed.
