The invention provides systems and methods for assisting the buying and selling of properties. The invention serves as a single point of contact for sellers, buyers, negotiators and third party service providers in the real estate market, offering a forum for identifying needs, presenting solutions and accessing a suite of real estate tools and services.An application architecture preferably includes resource applications, transaction applications, appointment management applications, advertising applications, and operations applications. A technical architecture preferably includes hardware that supports the application architecture, such as web servers serving web pages that serve as an online interface between the application architecture and the users. A business operation solution preferably includes independent but interacting product and content management functions, customer service functions, negotiator acquisition and management functions, operations support functions, marketing functions, alliance formation and management functions, technology operations functions, and back office support functions.A method preferably includes providing an online interface that sellers can use to provide information regarding properties they wish to sell, that can be used to publish the property-for-sale information to many buyers, and that buyers can use to provide information regarding properties they wish to buy. The method further includes selecting a property for recommendation to the buyer and providing the online interface for recommending the property to the buyer. The method further includes facilitating a negotiation between the seller and the buyer as necessary to effect a closing of a transaction between the seller and the buyer for the property.

The position of an imaging catheter in a body structure such as the heart is automatically controlled by a robotic manipulator such that its field of view at all times includes the distal end of a second catheter that is employed to effect a medical procedure. A processor receives signals from position sensors in the catheters. The processor utilizes the information received from the sensors and continually determines any deviation of the second catheter from the required field of view of the imaging catheter. The processor transmits compensation instructions to the robotic manipulator, which when executed assure that the imaging catheter tracks the second catheter.

A document reminder system is provided. The system provides a user-friendly interface to a user's existing document management, email, calendar and other systems in order to ensure that an appropriate user is notified when action should be taken on a specific document, and also provides notation to the user indicating the appropriate course of action to be taken. The system provides a calendaring feature where a supervisor or manager can determine the workload of a group of workers for an upcoming time period. The system provides an easily accessible and traceable database of information pertaining to a document, a client name, a client matter number, a document type, or other customizable fields in order for a user to search and sort the information for their own use.

A system and method for applying postage indicia to mail pieces using a controller for monitoring the mail pieces as they are processed by the system. The controller has information about each of the mail pieces. A postage evidencing system prints postage indicia on labels to create postage indicia to be applied to the mail pieces, wherein each of the postage indicia is associated with a particular mail piece and corresponds to a postage amount that is calculated using the information for the particular mail piece. An applicator applies the postage indicia to mail pieces.

The invention relates to a network-based information technology solution development and management system and method. In the system and method according to an embodiment of the invention, when a customer requests the development of information technology solutions, a server computer provides information on analysts to a customer computer and allows the customer to contract with a specific analyst. Then, the analyst receives requirements for the development of the solutions from the customer to perform the planning of the solutions, the analysis of the requirements, and the design of the solutions, and then the server computer places an order for each unit program to developers. Subsequently, when the developers who have assigned the unit programs develop the unit programs and deliver the developed unit programs to the server computer, the server computer tests the unit programs to accept or return the unit programs. Then, the server computer provides information the account and payment of the developers having delivered the unit programs to a financial institution computer and allows the financial institution computer to pay development costs to the developers. Subsequently, the server computer performs an integrated test on the unit programs corresponding to each project that are delivered by the developers and delivers the tested unit programs to the customers.

In a water treatment system with a function of filtering raw water, a filter can be securely and efficiently sterilized without using dangerous chemicals such as hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid. The water treatment system 1 has a strongly acidic aqueous solution generating unit 17 provided with an electrolytic bath for storing a solution containing an electrolyte, the electrolytic bath having a cathode chamber and an anode chamber which are partitioned by an ion-permeable membrane, a cathode and an anode disposed in the cathode chamber and the anode chamber, respectively, and a voltage applying section for applying a direct current voltage between the cathode and the anode; a strongly acidic aqueous solution feeding passage 18 for connecting the strongly acidic aqueous solution generating unit 17 to a raw water inlet of a reverse osmosis membrane module 2 housing a reverse osmosis membrane to supply a strongly acidic aqueous solution generated in the strongly acidic aqueous solution generating unit 17 into the reverse osmosis membrane module 2; and potentiometers V1 and V5 for measuring a oxidation-reduction potential of the strongly acidic aqueous solution which has passed through the reverse osmosis membrane module 2.
