Abstract

Methods and systems are disclosed for event management, allowing authorized users or authorities to distribute and display communications on digital displays. In one aspect, an event management communications system receives event data sent from a detection system comprised of a network of sensors. The event management communications system processes the event data to determine an event perimeter, and then selects one or more digital displays based upon the event data or the determined event perimeter. Next, the event management communications system authors one or more contextual communications corresponding to the one or more digital displays and sends said one or more authored communications to said one or more digital displays, thereby allowing the one or more digital displays to display the corresponding one or more communications to a relevant, identified audience.

Abstract

A computer automated system and method comprising configuring a single or plurality of mobile devices over a network, validating the configured devices, and communicating contextual information to the configured devices. The devices are authenticated and the authentication is sent to a server over the network, when a contextual service, controlled/offered by the server through a contextual service point in communication with the server, is invoked by the configured mobile device in the vicinity of the contextual service point. The mobile device is then enabled to consume a contextual service, offered by and delivered at the contextual service point, either from within the mobile device or over the network.

Abstract

Embodiments disclosed include a computer-automated system and method to receive a document in a first format, and via an assessment engine, determine the first format of the received document. The assessment engine is also configured to determine if the determined first format can be converted to a second desired format for printing or display, and if the determined first format can be converted to the second desired format, a conversion engine is caused to convert the received document to the second desired format. If the determined first format cannot be converted to the second desired format, a network routing engine routes the document over the network to a cloud-based conversion engine. Alternatively, partial conversion is implemented by the conversion and cloud-based conversion engine. Further, the cloud-based conversion engine is messaged over the network, wherein the message further incorporates an instruction to convert the routed document from the first format to the desired second format. The computer-automated system can then receive, over the network, from the cloud-based converter, the routed document, in the desired second format, and print or display the received routed document, in the desired second format.

Abstract

Embodiments disclosed include computer automated systems and methods for aggregating data from a plurality of data sources, such as proxy devices, legacy protocols, devices, applications, machines, sensors, things across locations and user types, or device clouds among devices and applications. The aggregated data is then normalized and the normalized data is analyzed. The analyzing is based on a correlated event or events, a correlated condition or conditions, and a correlated trend or trends across the plurality of data sources. And based on the analyzed data, relevant aggregated and normalized data is combined and displayed in a display compatible format. Additionally, user needs are determined based on the analyzed aggregated, normalized data. The user need comprises a need for an item or items comprising at least one of a service, a product, and an upgrade of hardware or software components. Further a provider from a plurality of providers is determined based on the determined user need, and finally a need fulfillment transaction between the user and the provider is initiated.
