Abstract: A system for electronic medication administration records comprising a cart station located at a skilled nursing facility, administration web pages, and a healthcare server not located at the skilled nursing facility. The cart station utilizes a plan builder algorithm to build a plan for each patient based on data contained in the cart station database. The plan comprises a list of the patient's procedures for a given day and information indicating whether such procedures have been completed. The cart station utilizes a plan runner algorithm to maintain and update the plan for each patient. The administration web pages allow an administrator to manage utilization of the system. The healthcare server and the cart station utilize a synchronization algorithm to maintain accurate and timely data for all of the skilled nursing facilities that use the system. A method of maintaining electronic medication administration records using the system described above.

Abstract: A system to enhance shipping transactions. The system includes a shipping server to store data, wherein the data comprises rates associated with a shipping transaction for more than one carrier; and instructions to install on a consumer device, to cause the consumer device to perform operations, comprising gathering data associated with a shipping transaction, in response to communication with a consumer, via a consumer device, from the shipping server when the shipping server is accessible and from a carrier server when the shipping server is inaccessible; generating a shipping label for the shipping transaction based upon the data; and recording the shipping transaction.

Abstract: A computerized data retrieval system, especially for commodity price information databases, having a windowing system which aids a user in creating and revising formal search language queries, a database searching engine responsive to such queries, means to generate and format results in both textual and graphic reports, and a capacity for echoing a formal search language query to a display in a near-natural language format for easy comprehension by the user as the query is constructed using the windowing system. The system has facilities for including domain knowledge in a query, such as market knowledge of calendar events, national holidays, triple-witching hours, and option contract expiration dates. The system has additional facilities that permit a user to include more fundamental domain knowledge, such as dates of political elections, date of issuance and value of company earning reports, the consumer price index, and so on.
