Patent number: 10896426Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for receiving distributed sensor based content from content producers in data processing networks. A sensor services controller (SSC) utility manages the processes involved with connecting content producers and consumers through a set of interfaces of a Services Oriented Architecture. The set of interfaces include interfaces for publishing, finding and paying for content created by distributed sensor platform devices. For example, a query interface allows consumers of content to submit content requests to content producers. The SSC utility enables a sensor platform device to expose the device's capabilities to a sensor services controller through a standard “sensor device” interface. Sensor device capabilities include geophysical location (GPS coordinates), digital imaging sensors (optical, infrared, etc.), movement and orientation data (gyroscopic and accelerometer readings).Type: GrantFiled: May 9, 2008Date of Patent: January 19, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Nathan John Harrington, Harry Luther Hoots, III

Publication number: 20200118228Abstract: The present invention is web-based platform for quick evaluation of real estate value. Markets are separated into well defined boundaries. Local real estate professional's inputs are considered while defining these defined individual market locations. A basis property is selected in each of the defined market. Measurable and non-measurable factors are quantified for the basis property. Site value is calculated for the basis property. The site value and measurable factor value is subtracted from the sale price of basis property and the non-measurable factor is proportionately adjusted, so that the total aggregates to sale price of basis property. A visual pattern is created and a database is created having visual pattern of all properties. Subject property input is received, visual pattern generated and comparable visual patterns are extracted from the database. Visual patterns are displayed to the user who can quickly select most appropriate pattern to estimate the value of the subject property.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 8, 2019Publication date: April 16, 2020Inventor: Andrew John Harrington

Publication number: 20160304272Abstract: A content cartridge is disclosed having a base with a sterile chamber and a content chamber, where the sterile chamber has a sterile chamber opening and the content chamber has a content chamber opening. A cover is sealed to the base, covering the content chamber opening and the sterile chamber opening. A first frangible seal is provided between the cover and the base extending from the content chamber. A second frangible seal is provided between the cover and the base extending between the sterile chamber and the content chamber. When the sterile chamber is pressured with a pressurizing fluid, the pressure in the sterile chamber will increase. When the predetermined pressure is exceeded in the sterile chamber, the second frangible seal opens forming a fluid path between the sterile chamber and the content chamber. In this manner, the pressurized fluid can flow from the sterile chamber.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 22, 2016Publication date: October 20, 2016Inventors: David Ertur, John Harrington
