  • Publication number: 20240177187
    Abstract: A computational approach is proposed herein for controlling a user interface for rendering of interactive graphical control elements representing offers and coupons that are inserted into a computational payment process. In particular, the offers and coupons can interact with stored payment information resident (or tokens thereof) on a digital wallet data structure. The approach can be implemented as a computing system, a computing method operable on a computing system, or a computer program product affixed in the form of a non-transitory computer readable medium storing machine-interpretable instructions.

  • Patent number: 11968994
    Abstract: An animal fat functional analogue (e.g., mimic) can include a gapped formulation of interesterified triglycerides that include saturated fatty acids. The animal fat functional analogue can have thermal properties (e.g., melting point, solid fat content, specific heat, etc.), rheological properties (e.g., viscosity), organoleptic properties (e.g., texture, mouthfeel, etc.), and/or other properties that imitate the properties of animal fat produced agriculturally.

  • Publication number: 20240109048
    Abstract: Chemical reactors and their configuration with laser systems enable the lasers to deliver unprecedented power densities into the bulk of a suitably absorbing fluid, enabling, e.g., endothermic reactions in the gas phase, into which it may be otherwise challenging to deliver heat. These laser-based chemical reactors may be used to process a broad range of feedstocks. Two such processes involve laser-based methane pyrolysis and laser-based olefin production.

  • Patent number: 11916260
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus configured for the osmotic injection of water in electrochemical systems are generally described. In certain embodiments, water can be transported from a water-containing liquid in an environment outside the electrochemical cell into the electrochemical cell across an osmotic medium fluidically separating an interior compartment of the electrochemical cell from the environment outside the electrochemical cell. The systems, methods, and apparatus described herein can be, according to certain embodiments, configured to be part of an electrochemical system in which water is consumed (e.g., as a reactant).

  • Publication number: 20220301013
    Abstract: Systems and methods for establishing data linkages are described in various embodiments. A system architecture is described which provides a data processing orchestrator device or service which securely interoperates with data sets at various points in time associated with a set of interactions a user may have with computer systems. The data sets are obtained from different data repositories, and are combined together for analysis such that a first data set representing intents (e.g., web search/browse history) can be combined together with a second data set representing outcomes (e.g., purchase transaction history, web site shopping carts).
