  • Patent number: 10817534
    Abstract: Systems and methods for interest-driven data visualization systems are illustrated. The system includes a processor and a memory configured to store an interest-driven data visualization application. The application configures the processor to obtain reporting data including a plurality of datasets from an interest-driven business intelligence server system; generate visualization rendering data for the datasets based on associations between visualization metadata and the datasets; and generate visualization image data based on the visualization rendering data.

  • Patent number: 10269047
    Abstract: Certain embodiments involve providing advertisements during navigation on an electronic device. For example, when the device is left idle for a period of time because the user of the device has not given a navigation command, the mobile device may present an advertisement. The advertisement may be displayed, for example, until the user returns and gives an additional navigation or other command, ending the idle period.

  • Patent number: 10244353
    Abstract: An approach is provided for determining location offset information. A correction manager determines to present, at a device, a location-based display including one or more representations of one or more location-based features. Next, the correction manager receives an input for specifying offset information for at least one of the one or more representations with respect to the location-based display. Then, the correction manager determines to present the one or more representations in the location-based display based, at least in part, on the offset information.

  • Patent number: 9904941
    Abstract: Certain embodiments involve providing advertisements in response to navigation on an electronic device. On a mobile or other electronic device navigation may be controlled by moving a focus indicator amongst a group of displayed items. Certain embodiments provide an advertisement break between navigation items. When a user crosses the advertisement break by navigating the focus indicator from an item on one side of the advertisement break to an item on the other side, an advertisement is presented to the user.

  • Publication number: 20160379148
    Abstract: In accordance with disclosed embodiments of the invention, a business intelligence server system receives telemetry data from an interest-driven business intelligence visualization system. The telemetry data includes an action for manipulating data. The telemetry data for an action is added to current workflow data. The current workflow data includes a sequential list of actions performed on the data. The current workflow data is compared to stored workflow data. One or more possible subsequent actions to perform on the data are determined based upon the comparison of the current workflow data to stored workflow data that includes workflow data for multiple workflows, and provides the one or more possible subsequent actions to perform on the data to the interest-driven business intelligence visualization system.

  • Patent number: 9026461
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include systems, methods, and computer-program products that provide for an enhanced mobile application for assisting users at a point-of-transaction (POT). In one embodiment of the invention the POT assistance application program may determines that a user is conducting a transaction with a merchant. The user may utilize a user device to assist in the transaction. First, the user device may be paired with a POT system, such as a cash register. Once the devices are paired a communication link is created that allows the user to audibly and/or visually monitor the transaction using the user device. Furthermore, the user may flag an item for review during the transaction, silence the transaction, receive a subtotal for the transaction, select a payment method, or complete the transaction using the POT assistance application program.

  • Publication number: 20140250465
    Abstract: Certain embodiments involve providing multiple versions of content to which a user can subscribe and an option within one version that allows a user of that version to upgrade or otherwise switch the subscription to another version of the content. For example, a “GO PREMIUM” command can allow a user to quickly and easily upgrade from within a basic version to a premium version. The premium version may have fewer or no advertisements and/or have additional or improved content. The option itself may identify the benefits. For example, in the case of a premium version that provides additional statistics not provided by a basic version, a button option within the basic version may have text identifying this benefit, e.g., “INTERESTED IN STATISTICS—GO PREMIUM.
