Publication number: 20220391996Abstract: According to examples, a system for coordinating and managing potential volunteers (i.e., volunteer blood donors) is disclosed. The system may include may include a processor and a memory storing instructions. The processor, when executing the instructions, may cause the system to receive partner data from one or more of a local partner and a global partner and determine a donation need based on the partner data. The processor may also cause the system to identify a pool of volunteer donors based on the donation need, build an online campaign to increase the pool of volunteer donors, and coordinate the pool of volunteer donors with the local or global partners based at least in part on a machine learning (ML) technique.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 18, 2022Publication date: December 8, 2022Applicant: Meta Platforms, Inc.Inventors: Yizhaq EZRA, Robert Kang JIN, Hema BUDARAJU, Arti Arvind KULKARNI, Peter Cunningham CLASEN, Stephen HARRELL, Puneet GUPTA, Boyan LIN, Frederick WIDJAJA, Zachary Alec CHAUVIN, Tori Bea SEIDENSTEIN, Mahima GUPTA, Chang SU, Kaushik SETHURAMAN, Jasmine I'esha Charmayne LAWRENCE, Nicholas William INZUCCHI, Charlie HART, Aubrey BACH, Neil DEXTER, Patrick Yang XU, Zanique Libby ALBERT

Patent number: 8626540Abstract: A computer, for planning moves of freight using vehicles, determines one or more attributes of a mission, based on a group of shipments being consolidated into the mission, computes a total amount of freight to be moved, and decides on feasibility of performing the mission, using a vehicle of a given type based at least on each of (A) the amount of freight, (B) one or more attributes of the mission, and (C) multiple effective capacities of freight moveable by the type of vehicle being selected, which depend on the mission attribute(s). Multiple effective capacities for each vehicle type, and corresponding values of mission attribute(s) at which they are to be applied are stored in the computer ahead of time, based on industry experience. Examples of mission attribute(s) include (1) number of stops, (2) type of stops (whether pooling or not), and (3) a combination thereof.Type: GrantFiled: May 23, 2005Date of Patent: January 7, 2014Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Roy I.

Patent number: 8046161Abstract: A computer, for planning moves of freight automatically receives a plan containing a number of trips to be performed to move freight using vehicles, and partially releases only a portion of the plan for execution instead of releasing the entire plan. The plan portion that is released includes a subset of trips that are selected by the computer from among all trips in the entire plan. Thereafter, the computer simply repeats the just-described acts. Iteratively releasing portions of a plan allows the computer to be instructed to release early certain trips that are satisfactory. Trips that are sub-optimal are re-generated in a next version of the plan, based on changes in orders in the interim. The computer may also be instructed to release a trip even if sub-optimal, if its time-to-departure becomes less than an advance notice needed by a truckload service that is to execute the trip.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2005Date of Patent: October 25, 2011Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Roy I.

Patent number: 7827051Abstract: A computer, for planning moves of freight automatically adds one or more layover(s) to a mission. Next, the computer determines one or more charge(s) for the layovers, using carriers' rules. Thereafter, the computer uses the charge(s) in deciding whether to include the mission in a transportation plan to be executed. In some embodiments, the computer automatically maintains, for the given mission, counts of attributes on which limits are imposed by a government or by carriers, such as driving time, on-duty time, and driving distance, and when any count exceeds a corresponding limit in the midst of a driving activity, the computer automatically divides up the current driving activity into a truncated driving activity and a remainder driving activity, separated by a layover activity. The computer also determines an estimated time of arrival, including the impact of required layovers, to reach destination(s), and whether layover(s) is/are required at the destination(s), e.g.Type: GrantFiled: May 23, 2005Date of Patent: November 2, 2010Assignee: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Javier Nicolás Sánchez, Mei Yang, Rongming Sun, Roy I.
