  • Publication number: 20240070626
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for performing tip-pooling aggregation and distribution. In some implementations, data is extracted from a plurality of different data sources. The data is normalized to a same format. The normalized data, which is attributed to a remote identifier, is indexed to an identifier representing a same source as the remote identifier. Portions of the normalized data indexed to the same contribution source are allocated to buckets based on a contribution period and a role for the same contribution source and a rule applicable to the contribution period. Portions of the normalized data indexed to different contribution sources are aggregated in the buckets to different contribution sources according to the allocation rule. The aggregated portions of the normalized data are assigned to targets based on assignment rules applicable to the buckets and distribution targets active during the contribution period.

  • Patent number: 10369245
    Abstract: A system for treating emissions from a vehicle includes an ozone generator, a first holding tank, and an exhaust vent. The first holding tank is downstream from the ozone generator and defines a volume for liquid waste beneath a void space. The exhaust vent is downstream from the first holding tank and outside of the vehicle. A supply conduit connects the ozone generator to the void space of the first holding tank. An exhaust conduit connects the void space of the first holding tank to the exhaust vent. The ozone generator, supply conduit, void space of the first holding tank, exhaust conduit, and exhaust vent establish a thermal driving head from the ozone generator through the void space of the first holding tank to the exhaust vent.

  • Publication number: 20030005437
    Abstract: An Internet based broadcasting system manages the insertion of advertisements and other messages into multiple broadcasts of live sporting events and other types of broadcasts. The insertion of advertisements and other messages is governed by program logs generated by a traffic system, signals extracted from the broadcasts themselves, and signals received from producer systems. The traffic system facilitates the marketing of advertising opportunities for the multiple broadcasts packaged in a variety of ways. The broadcasts are received by tuner systems that are automatically downloaded and installed on user's computers. The tuner systems can download and display demographically selected multimedia advertisements, banner advertisements, and a variety of messages that may be called for by the producer systems, which may be wireless portable computers that can be carried to sports events or other broadcasts by the producers of the broadcasts.

  • Publication number: 20020188583
    Abstract: An e-learning tool that uses an object-oriented approach to permit easily-developed course content to be quickly produced in customized form for a plurality of users. An authoring tool uses a template-based system to create courses in the form of individualized learning objects, each learning object containing a learning objective, content, and an assessment item. Various graphics, audio and text are also embodied in object form, associated with the proper learning object(s), and stored within a database. A dynamic delivery tool accesses the objects for a particular course upon request by a student, and virtually instantaneously creates a course customized for that student based upon a profile of the student stored within a learning management system. In this way, course administrators and developers can update or otherwise manipulate the course simply by modifying the individual objects, and the student views only those objects that he or she desires or is capable of viewing.
