Abstract: A system for labor scheduling and jobsite management is disclosed that manages a dynamically changing workforce. The system includes a graphical user interface (GUI) and a processor circuit that controls the GUI. The system provides a plurality of user-selectable input screens that allow input of information regarding employee onboarding, flexible staffing and workflow management, time entry/payroll support, significant event reporting, and medical protocol management. The system receives user input from one or more of the user-selectable input screens and generates, and dynamically updates, a plurality of work schedules for a respective plurality of workers having different skills working on different aspects of a job at different times as the job progresses.

Abstract: A system is provided for providing real-time actionable feedback. The system comprises: a server in communication with a plurality of client devices, which server comprises a first module configured to process clinical care data using a machine learning algorithm trained model to identify: (i) performance metrics that impact a clinical care outcome in a selected field, and (ii) one or more actions that influence the performance metrics and are actionable to a selected clinical care provider; a second module for generating a real-time measurement of the one or more performance metrics of the selected clinical care provider; and a third module configured to dynamically display on the graphical user interface of a client device of the selected clinical care provider: (i) the real-time measurement of the one or more performance metrics of the selected clinical care provider, and (ii) an adjustment of the one or more actions.

Abstract: The present invention employs branded virtual characters to engage and educate users regarding an array of health-related insurance, financial, and other benefits, enabling informed decision-making during this complex process. Information is collected gradually on an “as-needed” basis to avoid overwhelming users with lengthy and redundant requests for information, while still providing a safe environment for users to freely discuss personal, health, financial and related sensitive issues. Throughout the process, the system employs a portfolio-driven approach to identify inter-dependencies among different benefit products and plans, and prioritize and recommend “portfolio-level” benefit solutions. Back-end components enable users to complete transactions (e.g.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for phase balancing of a plurality of high frequency (HF) power generation units of an HF power supply system. In one aspect, a method includes measuring a first signal related to a first power reflected at a load and arriving at a first HF power generation unit, obtaining at least one first value related to the measured first signal in a system control, adjusting at least one of a frequency or a phase of an output signal of the first HF power generation unit based on the at least one first value and a reference value, measuring a second signal related to a second power reflected at the load and arriving at the first HF power generation unit, obtaining at least one second value related to the measured second signal in the system control, and determining whether a specified event for the first HF power generation unit occurs. The method also includes performing phase balancing of one or more further HF power generation units.

Abstract: The present invention employs branded virtual characters across multiple network platforms throughout various stages of complex transactions (eg, selling insurance). These characters initially engage prospective customers on a network platform, such as a social network, and persist over time across other network platforms (eg, university and company websites) to educate consumers until they are ready to purchase—e.g., from their “trusted advisor”—particular products and services offered by various providers. An extensible configuration tool (“Config Tool”) is provided to simplify the continued development of such a system, as well as customization of individual Product Modules (e.g., a Life Insurance Module) by product and service providers (e.g., insurance companies and employers) and other third-party developers (before and during runtime).

Abstract: The invention illustrates a system and method of displaying a base image and an overlay image comprising: capturing a base image of a real event; receiving an instrumentation data based on the real event; identifying a visual segment within the base image based on the instrumentation data; and rendering an overlay image within the visual segment.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided to implement a number of improvements to the consumption process for television (and other services), including personalization, community viewing, shared presence and context, messaging, access to ratings and recommendations (including community reviews), alerts, etc. A content distribution server manages the delivery of television, messaging, on demand audio or video, online gaming, and other entertainment and information services to a plurality of client devices (e.g., televisions, personal computers, enhanced telephones, etc.). The server components include a television application component, messaging component, and application components that integrate the various services to deliver, for example, enhanced television, which includes television broadcast enhanced with messaging services, Internet access, informational alerts, and/or the like.

Abstract: A dynamic, flexible and intuitive task-oriented graphical user interface (GUI) is implemented on network accessible hand-held mobile devices. A mobile hand-held device is characterized by limited screen size and fewer input keys compared to a keyboard. In a home network environment, such mobile hand-held devices act as remote control devices for home devices. Typical examples of such remote control device are universal remote control and cell phone. In one implementation the GUI provides techniques for displaying large amounts of data using a small screen. The GUI also presents a technique for making the user aware of current abstract available options and smoothly guiding his current intention into a task selection that the remote control can understand and execute on.
