  • Publication number: 20230407212
    Abstract: The chemical formulations use chemicals that are use or have been used for other cleaning purposes such as rust stains, but not for glass or glass-ceramic cooktop surfaces. In an embodiment for cleaning glass or glass-ceramic surfaces, percentages of active ingredients, such as either hydrofluoric acid (HF) or ammonium bifluoride (NH4HF2), can be formulated at an about an order lower in concentration by weight than those formulations originally used for removing rust stains (e.g. using the same chemicals for removing rust stains but with a lower concentration for different uses, wherein a different use includes removal of food burned onto cooktops). Additionally, even at the lower concentrations of the active ingredient the physical effort involved and the time for cleaning/removal are much less than with commercially available cleaning products.

  • Patent number: 10313455
    Abstract: A processing device receives a subscription request to a streaming data feed, the subscription request specifying one or more devices and at least one device property. The processing device generates the streaming data feed. The processing device receives a plurality of event messages, each of the plurality of event messages comprising data for an event that occurred on a device. The processing device determines a set of event messages from the plurality of event messages, wherein event messages in the set of event messages are associated with the one or more devices and the at least one device property. The processing device sends the set of event messages to a subscriber that subscribes to the streaming data feed.

  • Publication number: 20150052019
    Abstract: An enterprise fulfillment system for order fulfillment from a heterogeneous fulfillment network is shown having a server configured to connect to a communication network to communicate with an ordering system and obtain inventory data from the nodes of the fulfillment network. The server receives a customer query regarding a product from the ordering system, identifies nodes in the fulfillment network stock of the product, and scores fulfillment options from the fulfillment network based on a routing schema. The server replies to the ordering system with rank ordered fulfillment options. The system may provide independent routing schema for different clients that provides different fulfillment options from the fulfillment network for each client. An interface may be provided permitting the routing schema to be revised by a client or based on dynamic data. The fulfillment network may include nodes from client, enterprise and vendor networks having different inventory, capabilities and cost.
