  • Patent number: 10215685
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products can be used for displaying and analyzing data. A method operates by receiving and displaying flow cytometry data in a tree plot, which represents multiple variations of classified flow cytometry data within an interface of computer that includes an input device. The interface permits a user to select, using the input device, portions of the tree plot associated with characteristics and sub-sets of the data. In an example, one or more histograms, contour plots, density plots, radar plots, and scatter plots representing the data are displayed within the interface. The interface permits a user to select, using the input device, portions of the histograms, contour plots, density plots, radar plots, and scatter plots, corresponding to characteristics and sub-sets of the data. In an example, updated histograms and plots are displayed in the interface substantially immediately based upon selected characteristics and subsets of the data.

  • Patent number: 8214323
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for storing, managing, querying, and displaying data are described herein. The method operates by classifying and displaying received flow cytometry data. In an embodiment, the method creates a first extensible dimension table with columns that include keywords from received data. The method creates a second extensible dimension table with columns corresponding to parameters from the received data. The method then populates dimension tables with data describing values of dimensions of the classified data. The method populates a first fact table from the classified data. The method then populates a second fact table with a summary of data from the first fact table. The method displays a user interface on a display of a computer device. The method then permits a user to select query attributes including keywords and parameters. The method builds and executes queries based upon dimensions generated from grouped selected query attributes.

  • Publication number: 20050075949
    Abstract: A method for analyzing and planning an inventory according to a business objective using computer software is provided, wherein the inventory has related inventory data stored in a computer memory. The method includes the steps of analyzing the inventory data to identity a characteristic of the data configuring via a user interface a plurality of rules for generating a stocking plan in accordance with the business objective and the characteristic, generating the stocking plan, and evaluating the stocking plan in relation to the business objective.

  • Patent number: 5311766
    Abstract: An improved method and apparatus as disclosed for measuring the permeability of multiple phases through a rock fracture. The improvement in the method comprises delivering the respective phases through manifolds to uniformly deliver and collect the respective phases to and from opposite edges of the rock fracture in a distributed manner across the edge of the fracture. The improved apparatus comprises first and second manifolds comprising bores extending within porous blocks parallel to the rock fracture for distributing and collecting the wetting phase to and from surfaces of the porous blocks, which respectively face the opposite edges of the rock fracture. The improved apparatus further comprises other manifolds in the form of plenums located adjacent the respective porous blocks for uniform delivery of the non-wetting phase to parallel grooves disposed on the respective surfaces of the porous blocks facing the opposite edges of the rock fracture and generally perpendicular to the rock fracture.
