  • Patent number: 12175493
    Abstract: A processor is programmed with instructions to receive coupon data from a program creator. The coupon data defines a coupon and/or coupon program. The processor creates a first unique coupon program ID for the coupon data and writes the first unique coupon program ID and the coupon data to a database table. The processor transmits the first unique coupon program ID to the program creator. The processor also receives, from a user computing device, a coupon request message. The coupon request message includes a second unique coupon program ID. The processor extracts the second unique coupon program ID, retrieves the first unique coupon program ID, and matches the second unique coupon program ID to the first unique coupon program ID. Based on the matching, the processor generates a digital coupon token and transmits the digital coupon token to the user computing device via the communications interface.

  • Patent number: 9690881
    Abstract: Methods for product data management and corresponding systems and computer-readable mediums. A method includes receiving and parsing a functional model to produce a functional model graph, and receiving and parsing a three-dimensional (3D) model that corresponds to the functional model to produce a 3D model graph. The method includes identifying a plurality of one-dimensional (1D) candidate components corresponding to the functional model graph and the 3D model graph. The method includes creating a 1D graph corresponding to the 1D candidate components, parameterizing the 1D components in the 1D graph, and generating a 1D model from the parameterized 1D components.

  • Publication number: 20140092088
    Abstract: A three-dimensional view that includes a plurality of systems engineering models may be provided. A first systems engineering model and a second systems engineering model of the plurality of systems engineering models may be received. The three-dimensional view that includes the first systems engineering model and the second systems engineering model may be generated. The first systems engineering model may be projected onto a first plane of a three-dimensional coordinate system. The second systems engineering model may be projected onto a second plane of the three-dimensional coordinate system. The second plane is different than the first plane. The three-dimensional view may be displayed.
