  • Patent number: 11829811
    Abstract: A computer program product configured to execute a method for exchanging electronic data. The method includes receiving, using an API, a request to transmit data from a source trading partner to a destination trading partner; querying a name server, using a domain name system protocol, the name server comprising a subdomain of the destination trading partner to send the data to, wherein the subdomain is mapped to a destination access point, wherein a name of the subdomain conforms to a common format, wherein an address of the subdomain conforms to another common format; determining the address of the subdomain based on the querying of the name server; addressing the data, using another API, to be sent to the address of the subdomain; and transmitting the data, using the another API, to the destination access point by virtue of the subdomain's mapping to the destination access point.

  • Publication number: 20230287615
    Abstract: A tufting machine for selectively forming tufts of yarns, including different color or type yarns, for forming patterned tufted articles such as carpets. A series of needles are reciprocated into and out of a backing material being fed through the tufting machine and are engaged by a series of gauge parts so as to pick-up loops of yarns from the needles. The gauge parts will be selectively controlled by activators to extend or retract the gauge parts to positions or elevations sufficient to pick-up or not pick-up loops of yarns from the needles. The feeding of the yarns to the needles further will be controlled to back-rob yarns not picked-up by the gauge parts, while the backing feed will be controlled to enable formation of tufts at an increased rate over the pattern stitch rate for the pattern of the tufted article being formed.

  • Patent number: 11276081
    Abstract: Provided is a system, method, and computer program product for performing targeted advertising of a product. A processor may identify a consumer demography of potential consumers for an advertising campaign of a product. The processer may identify an inventory node map of the product. The processor may analyze the consumer demography and node map to identify a geographical collection of consumers for the advertising campaign according to an inventory availability relative to the consumer demography. The processor may determine relative expenses and a risk of inventory outages associated with order fulfillments of the product from the node map to form a fulfillment assessment map. The processor may update the geographical collection of consumers according to an optimizing profit and minimizing inventory outages criteria derived from adjusting the inventory availability and inventory location using the fulfillment assessment map.

  • Publication number: 20190136429
    Abstract: A tufting machine has a needle bar for carrying a plurality of needles for reciprocating into and out of a base material. A sliding needle bar shift mechanism may shift the needle bar laterally according to a pattern. The needle bar is mounted for reciprocation and for lateral movement relative to the direction of reciprocation by a drive system including a first directional drive component having a foot secured to a respective push rod of the tufting machine and a second directional drive component connected to the shift mechanism. The first and second drive components will connect to the needle bar through linear bearings or bushings so that the motion of the needle bar in multiple different directions is controlled while permitting greater machine operating and needle bar shifting speeds.

  • Patent number: 9996210
    Abstract: Enabling active host content related actions on a client device can begin with a client device receiving guest screen data and optionally host screen metadata from a server. The content of the guest screen data can be presented on the client device. A passive element corresponding to each active element of the server host screen can be identified. The active element of the server host screen can be selectable by the presenter and, upon selection (active event), can launch an active action on the server. The passive element of the client guest screen can have a defined selectable overlay hot spot. A hot spot can be can be associated with a hot spot action at the client. The hot spot action taken by the client, upon a hot spot event, can correspond to the active action taken by the server.
