  • Patent number: 10783213
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for accessing a graph database having nodes and relationships describing an organization. An interface in a computer system receives a request from a client to access information about the organization. Further, the interface in the computer system retrieves the information from the graph database having nodes and relationships describing the organization. Still further, the interface in the computer system sends a portion of the information to the client based on how much of the information is displayable by the client.

  • Patent number: 10452739
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for adding information to a graph database. A computer system receives initial records from a legacy database. The computer system converts the initial records from a source format for the legacy database into nodes and relationships for the graph database. The computer system also stores the nodes and the relationships in the graph database. The graph database stores the information about employees in an organization. Further, the computer system receives a group of records after the initial records have been converted into the nodes and the relationships for the graph database. Still further, the computer system changes at least one of a group of nodes or a group of relationships in the graph database based on the group of records. A synchronization between the legacy database and the graph database occurs.

  • Publication number: 20180197214
    Abstract: An electronic payment platform is modified to support merchant loyalty programs by implementing a database and user interfaces for both merchant and consumer participation. As transactions are processed, the electronic payment platform evaluates each transaction to determine if the consumer, and more particularly the payment instrument used in the transaction, is registered. If so, and the merchant is currently offering an award based on satisfying certain criteria, the current transaction data is added to previous qualifying transactions to determine if an award should be granted. If so, the electronic payment platform manages distribution of funds to a designated payment instrument of the consumer.

  • Publication number: 20160062488
    Abstract: An air mouse system is described. The air mouse is configured to periodically transmit RF signals in order to trigger a plurality of ultrasonic transmitters arranged on a television. The ultrasonic transmitters transmit ultrasonic signals when being triggered by the RF signals from the RF trigger. An ultrasonic receiver receives the ultrasonic signals. A processor calculates a location of the air mouse with respect to the ultrasonic transmitters based on time differences of the ultrasonic signals transmitted by the ultrasonic transmitters arriving at the ultrasonic receiver. A series of locations of the air mouse forms a motion trail of the air mouse and the air mouse transmits the motion trail to the television wirelessly. The motion trail is projected as a cursor trail on the television screen by the television, to control the cursor on the television screen by virtue of the motion of the air mouse.
