  • Patent number: 11936529
    Abstract: Embodiments include systems and methods for managing a network of nodes with delta processing. A network with a plurality of connected nodes can be stored, the nodes representing entities of the network. One or more deltas to the network that indicate updates to the connections among the plurality of nodes can be received. The deltas can be added to a queue. The connections between the nodes of the network can be updated using a delta from the queue. The network can be processed after updating the connections between the nodes to generate a vector for a given node. One or more paths for the given node can be identified based on the generated vector.

  • Patent number: 10909258
    Abstract: Embodiments include systems and methods for providing secure data management for a network of nodes. A network with a plurality of connected nodes can be stored, the nodes representing entities of the network. A request can be received from a first node of the network to retrieve data about a second node of the network. A query can be generated to retrieve the requested data. The query can be filtered based on permissions for the first node stored at a trusted store. The fields from the results of the filtered query can be redacted based on the permissions for the first node. And the redacted results can be provided to the first node.

  • Patent number: 8910929
    Abstract: A printer architecture that enables a printer (or other media processing device) with an elongate foot print to be configured with media input and operator controls oriented at either a narrow end or a wide side thereof, that surface becoming the “front” of the unit. Controls and/or display(s) are mounted such that either the end or side orientation can be accommodated. The media input tray includes a separate assembly so that selection of the tray with access to end or side complements the user control panel in establishing the front of the machine. The combination of control/display mounting and oriented media tray structure integration with the print engine to establish which of the printer surfaces is considered the front allows for multiple orientations of the printer and greater flexibility to the customer.

  • Publication number: 20140180749
    Abstract: A method for coordinating limited resources selected from a plurality of limited resources and distributed within a pair of scheduled time periods, the method for execution on a computer processor using stored instructions. The method includes receiving a request for calendar access by a first company; displaying a first time period of the pair of scheduled time periods for a first activity of the first company in a calendar, the display of the first time period including a first set of limited resources with identifying resource information. Also, the method displays a second time period for a second activity of a second company in the calendar, the display of the second time period including a second set of limited resources with identifying resource information.

  • Patent number: 6311530
    Abstract: A locking mechanism for a truck tool box including a central housing having a lateral opening extending therethrough. A first J-shaped member is provided having an elongated portion extending through the lateral opening in the central housing. The elongated portion has an open free end. The first J-shaped portion has a hooked portion for coupling with a hole formed in a front wall of a truck mounted tool box. A second J-shaped member is provided having an elongated portion extending through the opening in the central housing and inwardly of the open free end of the elongated portion of the first J-shaped member. The second J-shaped member has a hooked portion for coupling with a hole formed in a back wall of a truck mounted tool box. A locking mechanism is disposed within the central housing. The locking mechanism selectively engages the second J-shaped member to the first J-shaped member for locking the tool box.
