Abstract: A computing platform allocates ownership of an asset for maximized collective economic benefit while preserving user usage rights. The platform ingests asset-utilization transactions, user profiles, and supplemental datasets, and trains and executes an AI/ML categorization engine on a hardware accelerator using quantization and sparsity-preserving updates. The platform predicts a most-efficient-use vector, detects ownership inefficiency, selects a specialized ownership entity that maximizes expected benefit under policy constraints, and executes a retitling transaction comprising a conveyance plus a usage agreement. Optional embodiments generate audit-grade, hash-linked receipts and compress obligations via graph-based multilateral netting, geospatial shard migration, and intermediary internalization to reduce settlement legs, latency, and attack surface.

Abstract: A computing platform normalizes operational events across multiple accounting timebases and disperses period-close processing to reduce end-of-period spikes while preserving auditability. A time fabric maps canonical event records to synchronized calendar labels including at least one non-Gregorian calendar and generates period identifiers. For each period boundary, the platform produces a receipt binding a canonicalization hash, a state root over canonical records, and a trusted time-stamp token. A close dispersion engine decomposes a close workflow into micro-stages represented as a directed acyclic graph and schedules micro-stages across calendar slots based on resource constraints, optionally booking auditor-capacity windows under an atomic scheduling protocol. The platform generates deterministic replay manifests and witness bundles enabling verification of a closed state root.

Abstract: A computing system performs lifecycle retitling of an asset to specialized ownership entities while preserving continuous usage by a user. The system ingests asset-utilization transaction data and supplemental datasets and executes an artificial neural network (ANN) on an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) with static quantization of weights and activations. The ANN outputs a predicted most-efficient-use vector, which is compared with observed or declared usage to detect ownership inefficiency. The system selects an eligible specialized entity that maximizes an expected collective economic benefit objective and executes a transaction bundle that transfers legal title while maintaining uninterrupted usage via a coordinated usage-right update and continuity window. The system stores executed conveyance and usage-agreement records, benefit-sharing parameters, and typed receipts, and may net recurring obligations to reduce settlement legs.

Abstract: A system performs receiptized allocation of ownership of an asset to improve collective economic benefit while preserving continuity of use. The system ingests utilization data and policy context, executes an AI/ML categorization engine to identify an efficient use and a specialized ownership entity, and encodes a transaction that transfers legal title to the entity while preserving usage rights. Each evaluation, selection, and execution step generates typed digital receipts appended to an append-only universal receipt ledger. The ledger supports idempotency, cryptographic commitments, checkpointing, and replay manifests to enable deterministic replay and stateless verification of allocation decisions and entitlement changes. Privacy controls include selective disclosure, controlled redaction, key rotation, and auditable access receipts.

Abstract: A computing system allocates and reallocates ownership of an asset to maximize collective economic benefit while preserving continuity of usage. The system ingests asset-utilization transactions, user profiles, and supplemental outcome datasets, and executes an AI/ML categorization engine, optionally accelerated by specialized hardware, to generate a predicted most-efficient-use vector and an ownership-inefficiency score. When an inefficiency threshold is met, the system queries an ownership-entity database, selects a specialized ownership wrapper, and encodes and executes a transaction that transfers legal title to the wrapper while granting the user usage rights under a lease, rental, license, or other agreement and computing a benefit-sharing parameter. The system generates cryptographically verifiable receipts and optional multilateral netting and atomic settlement instructions that compress transaction legs and support deterministic replay.

Abstract: A method for allocating asset ownership for maximized collective economic benefit is provided. A computer receives information about a user and an asset used or to be used by the user. The computer identifies areas based at least on the received information in which the user's actual or planned use of the asset does not take maximum economic benefit associated with ownership of the asset. The computer searches a database describing a plurality of asset management entities with legal and structural characteristics suited to achieving maximum economic benefits associated with ownership of the asset. The computer selects a first asset management entity of the plurality of entities to match with the user. The computer executes a transaction providing ownership of the asset to the first entity and providing usage of the asset to the user, the transaction returning a portion of the economic benefits realized to the user.

Abstract: A method for controlling a coupled heat exchanger system having a first heat exchanger block and a second heat exchanger block. A first fluid stream is divided into a first partial current and a second partial current both flowing through the heat exchanger system. A second fluid stream flows through the first heat exchanger block counter to the first partial current. A third fluid stream flows through the second heat exchanger block counter to the second partial current. An intermediate temperature is measured on one of the heat exchanger blocks. The amount of the first partial current and the second partial current is controlled based on the current value of the intermediate temperature. This control reduces the strain on the heat exchangers by changing loads while keeping fluctuations of the intermediate temperature low.
