  • Patent number: 8140555
    Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for defining inductive relationships between content objects in a content management system. The system includes a content engine server that stores at least two content objects having a set of attributes. An attribute selection module selects an attribute of the content objects for identification of an inductive relationship. A comparison module compares the attribute value of the attribute selected of a first content object with the attribute value of a second content object. An inductive relationship module dynamically defines an explicit relationship between the first content object and the second content object in response to the first attribute value and the second attribute value satisfying a match criteria. The explicit relationship is preserved in an inductive relationship database. User-defined content management rules may then be applied to the inductively related content objects such as records management, retention, or launching business processes.

  • Publication number: 20120056400
    Abstract: A tricycle conversion assembly for a motorcycle comprising two bilaterally symmetrical stabilizers independently mounted to and suspended from a motorcycle frame by adjustable means of attachment. The stabilizers dispose auxiliary wheels essentially even with and parallel to the motorcycle rear wheel wherein the adjustable means of attachment suspend the stabilizers from the motorcycle without moving parts and provide for modifying the alignment of the stabilizers with the motorcycle and for modifying the reactivity of the stabilizers with variations in the ground surface. The assembly provides the opportunity to replace a stabilizer with a side car, and for attachment of an optional towing crossbar at the rear of the assembly.

  • Publication number: 20060047385
    Abstract: A method for remote vehicle communication is provided. The method monitors, stores and/or transmits data representative of the operation of a component or system, whereby the transmitted data may be analyzed and vehicle performance improved through the analysis thereof. Additionally, the vehicle systems are remotely accessible such that a technician can remotely analyze the vehicle without taking control of the vehicle away from the consumer.
