Abstract: A multi-layer adaptive routing (MLAR) computing device including at least one processor in communication with at least one memory adaptively routes packet data within one or more networks. The MLAR device stores a custom group instance on a database, the instance includes a network of a plurality of service providers and a consultant comprised of a plurality of user groups. The MLAR device submits a query to the database based on a data request from a user. Data packets are created based on the database's response to the query, which are then divided, routed, and transmitted among a plurality of users within the custom group instance.

Abstract: Disclosed is an abrasive sheet having a design printed thereon. Further disclosed is a process for making such sheets using a sublimation heat transfer printing process. The design is printed onto an abrasive sheet having an abrasive side and, in some embodiments, an adhesive side, by contacting the abrasive side with a sublimation ink transfer sheet at a temperature and for a time sufficient to transfer the sublimation ink from the transfer sheet to the abrasive sheet.
