Publication number: 20240121806Abstract: Systems and methods for assigning voice communication channels used by a crew of employees using communication devices are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: electronically store information, wherein the information represents associations of individual voice communication channels with one or more communication groups; receive user input that identifies employees, automatically determine sets of communication channel assignments per communication device, between communication channels and subsets of communication groups; configure communication devices according to the determined assignments; and facilitate packet-based communication, using the communication channels, between the communication devices.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 13, 2023Publication date: April 11, 2024Inventors: David O'Gwynn, Rick Evan Schwartz

Patent number: 11907947Abstract: Systems and techniques are provided for a resource transfer system. An instruction to transfer a first quantity of a resource from a first resource pool to a second resource pool may be received. A hold may be placed on a second quantity of the resource in the first resource pool. The held second quantity of the first resource may not be transferred from the first resource pool until the hold is released. Responsive to receiving a message that fulfills a condition on the hold and an instruction to execute the transfer, the hold may be released. A register that is in the first resource pool and is associated with the resource may decremented by the first quantity, and a register that is in the second resource pool and is associated with the resource may be incremented by the first quantity.Type: GrantFiled: April 13, 2022Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: RIPPLE LUXEMBOURG S.A.Inventors: Stefan Thomas, Evan Schwartz

Publication number: 20240028377Abstract: The generation, actuation, and enforcement of policies within a distributed computing system is provided. The policies are employed to manage the resources of the system. The resources include virtualized resources, such as virtual machines (VMs) and virtual storage disks (VSDs). A policy includes a rule and scope. Enforcing a policy includes applying the rule to resources that are within the policy's scope. Policies are employed to constrain the leasing period and reclaim leased resources, as well constrain the access of certain users to specific operations on the leased resources. Policies may be created via a UI that automatically generates a policy encoding. The policy is registered and accessed via a policy store. When multiple policies target a particular resource, merging strategies are applied to the multiple policies, to generate an effective policy that is consistent with the multiple policies and is enforced on the particular resource.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 9, 2023Publication date: January 25, 2024Applicant: VMware, Inc.Inventors: Mathieu COLOMBET, Daniel Evan SCHWARTZ, Julie A. PICKHARDT, Prateek GANGWAL

Publication number: 20230396967Abstract: Systems and methods for managing voice communication channels used by a group of people are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: electronically store information, wherein the information represents associations of individual voice communication channels with one or more communication groups, wherein individual ones of the one or more communication groups are specific to one or more roles of the people; receive device-specific packets from end-user communication devices associated with people, wherein the packets include packetized uplink information based on audio information captured by the communication devices, wherein individual packets are targeted to individual communication groups; generate and transmit downlink packets that include packetized downlink information that is organized in a set of broadcast channels for audio information that was targeted to specific communication groups.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 18, 2023Publication date: December 7, 2023Inventors: David O'Gwynn, Rick Evan Schwartz

Publication number: 20230362304Abstract: Systems and methods for providing headset/ear bud voice control to crew members in a quick-service restaurant are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: transmit transmission signals from a headset to the base station, receive reception signals by the headset from the base station; capture audio information from a first crew member, generate sound based on the received reception signals, generate the transmission signals to form a headset-specific uplink packet based on the captured audio information; generate semantic information based on the headset-specific uplink packet, wherein the semantic information includes one or more individual words; determine one or more commands that modify operation of the communication system, based on the semantic information, and facilitate execution of the one or more commands to control and/or modify the operation of the communication system.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 14, 2023Publication date: November 9, 2023Inventors: David O'Gwynn, Rick Evan Schwartz
