Abstract: A computing device receives a first electronic message representing a plurality of resources, generates a plurality of second electronic messages corresponding to the plurality of resources represented by the first electronic message, each of the plurality of second electronic messages representing a respective resource, of the plurality of resources, and stores the plurality of second electronic messages at respective databases associated with respective resource provisioning, the plurality of second electronic messages initially locked at the respective databases. After one or more of a given time period, and receiving confirmation, via a graphic user interface (GUI), of one or more respective resources being provisioned, the computing device unlocks respective second electronic messages in the respective databases, and delivers unlocked second electronic messages to respective external databases associated with the respected resource provisioning.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure include cathode insulation coatings and coating overlap designs that leverage a porous deposition of cathode insulation coating material. An exemplary vehicle includes an electric motor and a battery pack electrically coupled to the electric motor. The battery pack includes a plurality of battery cells. Each battery cell includes a cathode current collector having a cathode tab, a cathode active material dispersed over the cathode current collector, and a cathode insulation coating. The cathode insulation coating is formed directly on a portion of the cathode active material and directly on a portion of the cathode tab. The cathode insulation coating includes a porous macrostructure that is patterned such that portions of the cathode active material underlying the cathode insulation coating are exposed, thereby providing a porous cathode insulation coating that protects against separator misalignment and slippage with a reduced loss in ion transport dynamics.

Abstract: Systems, methods and devices which utilize near field communication-style technologies in conjunction with one or more of personal devices and communication networks in order to provide for improved customer interactions with a service establishment are provided. In one embodiment an application is configured to provide for various functionality upon the triggering of a near-field communication stimulus. For example, upon scanning a near field device, an application may launch that provides a user with pre-determined information. Such information may include information regarding the nearest locations of a service establishment and approximate wait times for transactions at the listed locations. In another embodiment, the pre-determined information may include information regarding promotions available to a customer such as special offers, coupons, advertisements, and the like.
