  • Patent number: 12468583
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for processing a workflow campaign. In some embodiments, a message processing service receives a first message that corresponds to a user arriving at a first node of the workflow campaign from a first message queue. The message processing service causes one or more actions associated with the first node to be performed with respect to the user. In addition, the message processing service determines that the first user should be progressed from the first node to a second node of the workflow campaign. The message processing service generates a second message that corresponds to the user arriving at the second node and determines a second message queue that is associated with the second node. The message processing service progresses the user from the first node to the second node by transmitting the second message to the second message queue.

  • Patent number: 11972360
    Abstract: A device may receive input data associated with a legal regulation, and may process the input data to generate a record that includes: the input data in a knowledge representation format and a semantic representation format, data identifying a feature, data identifying an industry classification, or data identifying an entity of interest. The device may process the record, with machine learning models, to determine output data that includes: data indicating that the legal regulation is inconsistent, data indicating that the legal regulation is outdated, data indicating a sentiment for the legal regulation, data indicating a prescriptive nature of the legal regulation, data indicating a complexity of the legal regulation, data indicating a misrepresentation in the legal regulation, data indicating a compliance burden associated with the legal regulation, or data indicating an industry performance impact of the legal regulation. The device may perform actions based on the output data.

  • Publication number: 20200216039
    Abstract: A system for drying a vehicle with a laminar flow of air comprising a device for imparting a laminar flow of air from a pressurized plenum, a sensor for profiling the shape of the vehicle, and a control system that receives information on the profile of the vehicle from the sensor and controls the distance between the device and the vehicle while the device and vehicle move relative to one another. The distance between the vehicle and drying device is sufficient to maintain a laminar flow of air onto the surface of the vehicle from the pressurized plenum (DL). A method of using the system is also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20160355691
    Abstract: Methods for protecting an electronic device from contaminants by applying multiple polymeric layers on the vital components of a device are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method comprises applying a multilayered, hydrophobic coating that is inert to electrical conductivity on one or more components of the device. The method includes applying to a component of a device a first layer comprising a first polymer, such as a silicone-based polymer, and a second layer comprising a second polymer, such as an acrylic-based polymer on top of the first layer. Each of the first and second layers exhibits a water contact angle greater than 90°, such as at least 110°. Electronic devices that are protected by such multilayered, hydrophobic coatings are also disclosed. Non-limiting examples of such devices include smart phones, computers, and gaming devices.
