  • Publication number: 20030120532
    Abstract: An electronic mapping method includes identifying a process to be completed, identifying tasks to be performed for completion of the process, and identifying required input items and output items of the process. The method further includes, in an electronic map, positioning task symbols in a standard task area of pages of the electronic map, each task symbol corresponding to a task to be performed and each task symbol being positioned below a previous task symbol on the same page to clarify process flow, associating remotely stored data with at least some of the task symbols, and in the electronic map, positioning input symbols to one side of the standard task area and positioning output symbols to another side of the standard task area to clarify process flow in the electronic map.

  • Publication number: 20020177829
    Abstract: A three dimensional disposable underpant is disclosed having an absorbent core skewed forward by a factor of no more than 0.10. The absorbent core is positioned within the front, central, and back sections of the disposable underpant such that the length of the absorbent core in the back section of the disposable underpant divided by the length of the absorbent core in the front and central sections of the disposable underpant is less than 0.10, and the length of the absorbent core in the front section of the disposable underpant is greater than the length of the absorbent core in the back section of the disposable underpant. In one aspect, the disposable underpant includes elasticized leg and waist openings, resulting in the underpant being stretchable about the hip and stomach regions of a user.
