Patent number: 11972436Abstract: A system comprises at least one computer device in communication with one or more server computers. The system converts unstructured text into usable order details, and uses instant messaging to notify recipients of the order details. The notices include electronic web links that launch a web interface that generates an editable, pre-populated electronic order ticket based on the order details. Submission of the electronic order ticket launches an auction during which the recipients may respond with offers to fulfill to the electronic order ticket. If after the auction more than one response is needed to fill the electronic order ticket, the system automatically allocates how and in which order the responses will be used to fill the electronic order ticket. If the electronic order ticket is not completely filled after the auction, the electronic order ticket is submitted to one or more additional exchanges for further filling.Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 2021Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: ICE Data, LPInventors: Jacob E. Pechenik, Gregory S. Campbell, Douglas E. Miller, Blake A. Barnes, Kevin Kimmel, Todd M. Kenney, Carmelo Piccione, Yasmin Sohrawardy

Patent number: 11416212Abstract: Techniques and architectures may be used to provide an environment for a speech-based intelligent user assistant (IUA) having a flexible operating system that is based, at least in part, on the context of interaction of a user of a computing system with the computing system. Such a flexible operating system may allow for non-obtrusive communication of the IUA with the user. Thus, for example, a user may communicate with the IUA without interrupting their other activities on the computer, such as playing a video game.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2016Date of Patent: August 16, 2022Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Sreekar Choudhary, John Henson, Kevin Barnes, Louis Valentine, Zachariah Glen Johnson
