Abstract: This disclosure is directed to techniques in which a first user in an environment scans visual indicia associated with an item, such as a barcode, before handing the item to a second user. One or more computing devices may receive an indication of the scan, retrieve image data of the interaction from a camera within the environment, identify the user that received the item, and update a virtual cart associated with the second user to indicate addition of the item.

Abstract: Product spaces for containers of non-discretized items are defined by sets of points in three-dimensional space. When a customer breaches or contacts a product space established for a container of the non-discretized items, video feeds representing the product space are displayed to an associate in a web page or another user interface. By interacting with the user interface, the associate may view the video feeds and make a determination as to whether the customer received any of the non-discretized items from the container, and to confirm an identity of the customer accordingly.

Abstract: An information exchange platform receives a file from a client system and processes the file for delivery to a trading partner (TP) of the client system. The TP does not need to be a client of the information exchange platform. So long as the file has some identifying information such as an email address that uniquely identifies the TP within a custom solution for the client system, the information exchange platform can automatically and programmatically provision the TP. An auto-provisioning subsystem is operable to create and/or configure information needed to complete the processing of the file just in time, including creating a legal entity and a routing address for the TP. When completed, the file is processed into a deliverable, which is then provided for delivery to the TP just in time as the file is received from the client system.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein include a system for generating a drainage radius log per well that includes a computing device that receives well data associated with a plurality of wells, utilizes the well production data to calculate a value for cumulative liquid produced by each of the plurality of wells for a predetermined time period, and utilizes at least a portion of the well data to calculate a fractional contribution for each of the plurality of wells. In some embodiments the computing device utilizes the value for cumulative liquid produced for each of the plurality of wells and the fractional contribution to calculate a cumulative liquid production for each of the plurality of wells, utilizes the cumulative liquid production to calculate the drainage radius log for each of the plurality of wells, and outputs the drainage radius log for display.

Abstract: An any-to-any (A2A) connector system provides an A2A integration framework that includes an ingress router, a connector system, and enhancements to an orchestration service framework of an information exchange platform. At design time, an application programming interface (API) connector can be generated based on API documentation for the external service. At runtime, in processing an itinerary that includes a universal service, the external service is called through the universal service using the API connector. The universal service is operable to parse a request from a client system, query a connector database, and, based on a result from the connector database, sends a request to a connector engine. The connector engine fetches the API connector from the connector database, calls the external service using the API connector, handles results of the call, and returns the results to the universal service.

Abstract: A system may generate image data of users within a facility. Such users may be part of a group that is unknown to the system. The system can predict group data for two or more users based on a resemblance or the users being within a threshold distance of each other. However, if a confidence level associated with the predicted group data is below a threshold value, the group data is deemed unreliable and assistance from an associate is deemed necessary. A user interface that includes a portion of the image data, information about the predicted group data, and other interface elements is presented to the associate via a display. Based on the input data received from the associate, the group data can be confirmed or rejected. If the group data is confirmed, an association is made between the users and a group identifier.

Each graph of the plurality of graphs corresponds to a reservoir property. Each bin of the plurality of bins corresponds to a range of values along one of the first axis and the second axis. The plurality of graphs are arranged within the graphical user interface such that the plurality of bins are aligned with one another.
