Abstract: A logic verification program, method and system provide an efficient behavior when verifying large logic designs. The logic is partitioned by cut-nodes that dominate two or more RANDOMS and a check is performed for a given cut-node to determine whether any of the dominated RANDOMS can be merged to a constant by performing satisfiability checks with each RANDOM merged to a constant, to determine whether a range of output values for the given cut-node has been reduced by merging the RANDOM. If the range is not reduced, the RANDOM can be added to the set of merge-able RANDOMS along with the corresponding constant value. If the range has been reduced, the opposite constant value is tried for a node and if the range is reduced for both constants, then the cut-node is abandoned for merging that dominated RANDOM and the next dominated RANDOM is tried.

Abstract: Methods and systems are described for collecting, processing, classifying, structuring, transforming, relating, creating & linking audio recordings and reporting filtered data related to US FDA Warning Letters and Individual Citations for users to get regulatory intelligence from a database. Data is collected from multiple sources including FDA website. Individual Citations are parsed, isolated from their parent Warning Letters and subclassified to enable meaningful searches for users to assess regulatory compliance risks. Single topic records are created for each Individual Citation that is related to its corresponding Product Type, System, FDA Guidance for industry, Inspector name, 21 CFR section, Country, Company and Date of Warning Letter. Audio recordings are created for Individual Citations and Individual Warning Letter contents for listening purposes and integrated with the database.

Abstract: A service provider may receive item price information and/or point of sale (POS) transaction information from a plurality of merchant devices associated with a plurality of merchants. The service provider may categorize the plurality of merchants according to the types of items offered by the respective merchants, and may further categorize the merchants according to the locations at which they conduct business. The service provider may subsequently determine a price recommendation or other pricing information for a particular item offered by a particular merchant. A merchant device of the particular merchant may present the pricing information in a user interface that enables the merchant to view projected sales at various different price points. Further, the merchant may be able to specify one or more factors used for determining the recommend price, such as a desired business model, a desired clientele, a desired profit margin, or the like.

Abstract: The disclosure discloses methods and systems for localizing a user interface based on a personal device of a user. The method includes receiving a personal device by a multi-function device, the personal device stores one or more documents, the personal device is associated with a name and each document is associated with a name, wherein the name of the personal device and the name of each document indicate a local language of the user. Upon receiving, the personal device is detected by the multi-function device. Then, the name of the personal device and the name of each document are extracted and compared with one or more pre-stored language patterns to detect the local language of the user. Upon detection, the pre-defined language of the user interface is automatically changed to the local language of the user.

Abstract: A particular item may be categorized based on delivery times of the particular item. In some instances, the particular item may be ranked across multiple merchants that are offering the particular item for acquisition. The ranking may be based on an estimated amount of delivery time to deliver the particular item, for the individual merchants, to a current location of a user. The estimated amount of delivery time may be based on a preparation time for the respective merchant to prepare the particular item, a courier time for a courier to transport the particular item to the current location of the user, and so on. Information regarding the ranking may be displayed or otherwise output to enable the user to identify and order the particular item from a merchant that satisfies the user's needs.

Abstract: A method and system for description of synthetic audiovisual content makes it easier for humans, software components or devices to identify, manage, categorize, search, browse and retrieve such content. For instance, a user may wish to search for specific synthetic audiovisual objects in digital libraries, Internet web sites or broadcast media; such a search is enabled by the invention. Key characteristics of synthetic audiovisual content itself such as the underlying 2d or 3d models and parameters for animation of these models are used to describe it. To represent features of synthetic audiovisual content, depending on the description scheme to be used, a number of descriptors are selected and assigned values. The description scheme instantiated with descriptor values is used to generate the description, which is then stored for actual use during query/search.

Abstract: In some examples, a first device of a first buyer may receive a selection of a first item offered by a selected merchant. The first device may determine whether any second devices are within a threshold distance of the first device. Based on a second device being within the threshold distance, the first device may send, to the second device, a communication for creating a combined order. Receipt of the communication may cause the second device to present, to a second buyer, an interface for creating a combined order. The second buyer may use the second device to select a second item to order from the merchant. At least one of the first device or the second device may send combined order information to a service computing device, which may send the combined order to the merchant and schedule a courier to deliver the ordered items to the buyers.
