  • Publication number: 20200151664
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, and non-transitory computer-readable medium for creating an immutable record of part dismantlement transactions and generating electronic listings of harvested parts. For example, a method may receiving images of a first part of equipment, wherein the first part has been disassembled from the equipment; generating a first removal document, the first removal document comprising data indicative of a disassembly of the first part from the equipment; collecting one or more data attributes associated with the first part; storing the images of the first part, the first removal document, and the one or more data attributes associated with the first part, in a shared database; and generating one or more electronic listings for electronically transacting the first part, based on the stored images of the first part, the first removal document, and the one or more data attributes associated with the first part.

  • Publication number: 20200151727
    Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, and non-transitory computer-readable medium for electronically listing parts at an online platform using electronic data files and processing conditional transaction requests. For example, a method may include receiving, from a first user device of an owner of the equipment, a request to list the equipment on the online platform prior to dismantling the equipment; in response to the request to list the equipment, receiving one or more manifest data files associated with parts of the equipment; generating one or more listings at the online platform based on the received one or more manifest data files; receiving a conditional transaction request associated with the one or more listings from a second user device in communication with the online platform, to generate a conditional transaction; and determining a transaction status of the conditional transaction after the equipment has been dismantled.

  • Patent number: 9342524
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for single instance indexing of backup images is provided. In one example, a content identifier is established for a file in the backup images. An index database associated with the backup images is queried with the content identifier. Content and metadata of the file is indexed if the content identifier is not in the index database. Only the metadata for the file is indexed if the content identifier is not in the index database. In one example, the content identifier comprises a file identifier defined by the metadata for the file. In another example, the content identifier comprises a checksum computed for the file.

  • Publication number: 20070021836
    Abstract: Spinal disc prosthetic devices are provided having up to six-degrees-of-freedom with three rotational and three translational degrees-of-freedom within the entire workspace of a Functional Spinal Unit (FSU). Certain embodiments of the prosthetic disc mechanisms attach to upper and lower plates anchored between vertebrae of an FSU allowing modularity of the devices. Scaling, conjoined mechanical programmability allow the devices to realize almost any nominal required spinal articulation, from the cervical to lumbar regions.

  • Publication number: 20060241767
    Abstract: The subject invention provides a modular six-degrees-of-freedom spatial mechanism for spinal disc prosthesis, with three rotational and three translational degrees-of-freedom within the entire workspace of a Functional Spinal Unit (FSU). The prosthetic disc mechanism attaches to upper and lower plates anchored between vertebrae of an FSU. Scaling, conjoined with motion limit stops, allows the device to realize almost any nominal spinal articulation, from the cervical to lumbar regions.
