  • Patent number: 9239952
    Abstract: A system for extracting data from a document may include a memory, an interface, and a processor. The processor may identify one or more landmarks based on predefined characteristics that are associated with known landmarks. After one or more landmarks are defined, business rules may indicate one or more areas that may contain data to be extracted. The business rules may also indicate the type of data in the area and processing methods that may be used to extract the data. After determining the business rules, the processor may determine whether the data is in the area and/or extract the data.

  • Patent number: 9239953
    Abstract: A system for contextualizing machine indeterminable information based on machine determinable information may include a memory, an interface, and a processor. The memory may store an electronic document image which may include information determinable by a machine and information indeterminable by a machine. The processor may be operative to receive, via the interface, the electronic document image. The processor may determine the machine determinable information of the electronic document image and may identify the machine indeterminable information of the electronic document image. The processor may contextualize the machine indeterminable information based on the machine determinable information. The processor may present the contextualized machine indeterminable information to the user to facilitate interpretation thereof. In response thereto, the processor may receive, via the interface, data representative of a user determination associated with the machine indeterminable information.

  • Publication number: 20150339620
    Abstract: In order to increase the efficiency and flexibility in generating work schedules for employees at an enterprise, a method and a system for generating schedules for users of the system are provided. A database including data records that each include data related to one or more attributes of a respective one of the user is provided. At least one first time period that represents an availability of one of the users is identified. A second time period that is assignable to at least one of the users is identified. The second time period is characterized by attributes. A schedule for the one user is generated based on the data record for the one user, the at least one first time period, and the second time period.

  • Publication number: 20150193639
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate to a social networking system for deployment within an enterprise and a method for sharing data among a plurality of users of the enterprise-deployed social networking system. The disclosed system, in order to increase the efficiency of a worker at an enterprise, may provide a database including a plurality of data records. Each data record of the plurality of data records includes data relating to one user of the plurality of users. A permission matrix defining, for each user of the plurality of users, first permissions and second permission is also provided. Upon receipt of a request for a first data record of the plurality of data records, a source of the request is identified, and a portion of the first data record accessible to the identified source of the request is determined using the permission matrix. The portion of the first data record is transmitted to the identified source based on the determination.

  • Publication number: 20140149440
    Abstract: In order to increase the efficiency of the worker and ultimately decrease the cost of the worker performing work-related tasks, a method and a system for presenting information relevant to user activity of a user at a computing device is provided. A database including data records that each include information relevant to at least one user activity and at least one identifier identifying the at least one user activity is provided. Activities of a user are monitored and compared to the data records of the database. When a monitored activity matches an identifier of one of the data records, the information corresponding to the matched data record is presented to the user.
