  • Patent number: 11748762
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, comprising receiving one or more inputs associated with a master services agreement (MSA), and generating an output that includes smart contract information; performing a simulation and receiving user input to interactively adjust the smart contract information and implement a smart purchase agreement (SPA) in blockchain and in a state engine; and automatically generating a smart purchase order (SPO) under the MSA, wherein the SPO is automatically validated for a conflict against the MSA in real-time, and for the case of a conflict, a conflict warning is provided.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 17, 2020
    Date of Patent: September 5, 2023
    Assignee: FUJIFILM Business Innovation Corp.
    Inventors: Steven Cebertowicz, David M. Hilbert, Kandha Sankarapandian, Ram Sriram, Chidansh Amitkumar Bhatt, Scott Carter, Laurent Denoue, David Ayman Shamma, Shinji Onishi
  • Publication number: 20210398039
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, comprising obtaining an input associated with historical information, deadlines, and user-related information, or information associated with historical tasks, current tasks and user metadata; performing a calculation on the input to generate an output; and based on the output, generating a timing of a campaign and a team composition, or task lists and point values.

  • Publication number: 20200259972
    Abstract: A method of managing a low-power wide area blockchain network having multifunction printers (MFPs) as nodes in a radio frequency (RF) mesh is provided. The method includes configuring the RF mesh based on MFP characteristics including RF reception, compute, storage and uplink, for each of the MFPs. The method also includes operating the RF mesh to dynamically determine a role of the MFPs based on the MFP characteristics, current power save and processing state, for each of the MFPs and its neighboring MFPs, based on a function that minimizes delay, balances load and/or transitions MFPs between a sleep mode and a wake mode.

  • Patent number: 8941847
    Abstract: Example embodiments described herein are directed to utilizing image matching technology to allow people to use their mobile device to setup scan workflows (or “Scan Flows”) in advance of a future scanning operation. Using an application on a mobile device, the user takes a photo of the first page of a document that he/she will scan at some later time and associates the image of the document with a simple workflow (e.g., where to store the document once the document has been scanned). Additional workflow actions may include automatic document sharing and notification, automatic document segmentation, and automatic document cropping.
