  • Patent number: 10531390
    Abstract: A GPS-enabled cellular electronic device is operated in an indoor mode. An increase in strength of a cellular signal is detected at the GPS-enabled cellular electronic device. Responsive at least to the increase in cellular signal strength, the GPS-enabled cellular electronic device is transitioned to an outdoor testing mode. Detecting is carried out to determine whether movement of the GPS-enabled cellular electronic device occurs during the outdoor testing mode. If so, the GPS-enabled cellular electronic device is transitioned to an outdoor mode.

  • Patent number: 9618350
    Abstract: A computer readable medium embodies a program of machine-readable instructions executable by a processing apparatus to perform operations including determining information corresponding to a number of differences in distances between ending points of journeys taken by a vehicle and starting points of consecutive journeys taken by the vehicle, and transmitting one or more representations of the information. Another computer readable medium tangibly includes instructions for, for each of a number of vehicles, receiving one or more scores corresponding to a vehicle, and determining a ranked list containing at least a portion of the scores, and outputting the ranked list. Another computer readable medium includes instructions for, for each of a number of vehicles, receiving information corresponding to a vehicle, using one or more metrics, calculating one or more values from the received information, and communicating one or more representations of the one or more value to one or more entities.

  • Publication number: 20160148153
    Abstract: Booking information including destination and origin and specifying a desired multi-modal freight shipment is obtained from a user; based on same and on route information from a carrier database, a plurality of feasible multi-modal routes for the desired freight shipment are generated with a route enumeration module. Based on cost information from the carrier database, cost for each of the feasible multi-modal routes is computed with a cost estimation sub-module of a metric computation module. Based on transit time information from the carrier database, transit time for each of the feasible multi-modal routes is computed with a transit time estimation sub-module of the metric computation module. Based on the cost for each of the feasible multi-modal routes and the transit time for each of the feasible multi-modal routes, multi-objective optimization under uncertainty is carried out with an optimization module, to obtain one or more preferred feasible multi-modal routes.
