Abstract: The methods and apparatuses disclosed herein generally relate to optimizing the creation and loading of application interface layouts by providing a platform for generating configuration files for mobile applications. A mobile configuration file can allow a developer to update an application layout, and for the application to render updated layouts, without any need to alter the underlying code of the application after it has been installed on the a client device. A mobile workbench receives drag-and-drop layout definition input from a developer, and creates a mobile configuration file based on the developer's input. The mobile workbench can then dynamically update the mobile configuration file as the developer updates the application layout. The developer and/or the mobile workbench can send the updated application layout to mobile applications running on client devices, such that the client devices need not redownload the mobile application to render the updated application layout.

Abstract: The present invention relates particularly to a method and system for consolidating a plurality of a consumer's payment and non-payment source accounts into a consolidated platform with a customer identification or available proxy account numbers that can be assigned to source accounts. The source accounts can be, for example, credit card accounts, ATM accounts, debit card accounts, demand deposit accounts, stored-value accounts, merchant-loyalty card accounts, membership accounts, and identification card numbers. The consumer can access and modify any of the source accounts and manage funds across the source accounts by accessing the consolidated platform with a single access device or mode.

Abstract: A mobile device may include a processor, a memory in communication with the processor, a network device in communication with the processor, a display in communication with the processor, and at least one mobile travel service component in communication with that processor. The network device may be configured to communicate with a local network and a public network. The at least one mobile travel service component may be configured to provide mobile travel services via the display and the input device when the network device is out of communication with the public network. The at least one mobile travel service component may include a passenger connect module, a seat swap module, a navigation module, a content module, a retail module, an archive module, an information module, or a combination thereof.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing animal information related to at least one animal may sense, with at least one sensor of at least one device on the animal or in the animal's environment, information related to the animal. At least one device processor may automatically transform the sensed information into descriptive information describing a condition of the animal or related to the animal. The at least one device processor and/or at least one remote processor in communication with the at least one device processor may compare the descriptive information to known information relevant to the condition. The at least one device processor and/or at least one mobile device in communication with the at least one device processor may report information about the animal utilizing the descriptive information and the database information.
