Method of extracting data and recommending and generating visual displays

A method of recommending and generating visual displays of data by executing a visualization tool that operates as part of a comprehensive Web-based computing platform can be accessed via a website, customizable interface, email, telephone, or other remote communication device. The visualization tool operates by accessing the data source and then executing an analysis engine to parse numerical and other forms of data. If necessary, a data mining tool can also be used to download data and a semantic template editor can be used to generate a template for parsing any type of data. The data and data format are identified, and the visualization tool executes a recommendation engine that considers the data and data format and recommends suitable visual display styles and visual display options and recommends additional compatible algorithms. Additionally, users can provide their own compatible algorithms for data processing. The user then selects one or more display styles or graphs and display options. If there are compatible algorithms, the user can select a pre-programmed algorithm or a user-generated algorithm as well. The computation engine executes the algorithms, performs calculations associated with the chosen visual display style, and outputs a file according to a given API protocol. A presentation program uses the output file to generate a visual display. Finally, the visualization tool delivers the display to the user, saves the display, and / or publishes the display.

Safety indicator and method

A safety indicator monitors environment conditions detrimental to humans e.g., hazardous gases, air pollutants, low oxygen, radiation levels of EMF or RF and microwave, temperature, humidity and air pressure retaining a three month history to upload to a PC via infra red data interface or phone link. Contaminants are analyzed and compared to stored profiles to determine its classification and notify user of an adversity by stored voice messages from, via alarm tones and associated flashing LED, via vibrator for silent operation or via LCD. Environmental radiation sources are monitored and auto-scaled. Instantaneous radiation exposure level and exposure duration data are stored for later readout as a detector and dosimeter. Scans for EMF allow detection with auto scaling of radiation levels and exposure durations are stored for subsequent readout. Electronic bugs can be found with a high sensitivity EMF range setting. Ambient temperature measurements or humidity and barometric pressure can be made over time to predict weather changes. A PCS RF link provides wireless remote communications in a first responder military use by upload of alarm conditions, field measurements and with download of command instructions. The link supports reception of telemetry data for real time remote monitoring of personnel via the wrist band for blood pressure, temperature, pulse rate and blood oxygen levels are transmitted. Commercial uses include remote environmental data collection and employee assignment tasking.

Revenue-producing bank card system & method providing the functionality & protection of trust-connected banking

A revenue-producing, charge card system also manages account balances to create an investment profit for the card holder. A trust account has a trust-account balance reflecting a first amount of funds, is constructed to subsequently record debits and credits related to the balance, and is constructed for access via remote communication. A bank account has a bank-account balance reflecting an initial zero balance, is constructed to further record debits and credits related to the balance, and is constructed for access via remote communication. A debit card is constructed for communication with the trust account and the bank account, and a switch is in communication with the trust account and bank account. The trust account and the bank account are constructed for intercommunication via the switch so that a card user can pass debits and credits to the trust account through the bank account so that the funds of the trust account can be managed via the trust account. There are also methods of producing revenue thorough a charge card, a revenue-producing machine for users who have bank accounts, and a revenue-producing, debit-card system for a user who has a bank account that is connected to a trust-like structure combined with a debit card connected to the trust-like structure. In addition, there is a controller, for a networked trust account and a networked bank account that are capable of communicating via a network, that maximizes revenue to the holder of both accounts, and a corresponding method. In addition, there is a principal-protected, revenue-producing investment system, an international financial system, and a method of providing an alternative international fiduciary financial system.

System and method for managing domain policy for interconnected communication networks

The present invention is directed to a system and method for managing domain policy for interconnected communication networks. The present invention governs communication service policy for interconnection among remote communication services to allow users to communicate with other users in remote domains. Exemplary embodiments allow the local communication services to guarantee certain service aspects even when remote domains are involved. For example, the local service enablers can assert their local service policy across domains. A local service enabler can choose other service enablers in remote domains based on specific criteria that meets the local service enabler's settings and user preferences. The local service enabler can protect itself from connection to other service enablers that may contradict its local settings. Thus, the present invention can manage communication services across remote domains, while each domain can continue to be managed locally according to the needs and preferences of the local users.
