摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for titration comprising guiding a sample to be titrated through a conduit, adding a reagent to said conduit at at least two entrance positions along said conduit in such a manner that said reagent will react with the sample within at least one individual sector of the conduit, defined as the space between two consecutive entrance positions or a final individual sector defined between a final entrance position and a sample exit point of the conduit, while at least one detection device positioned at the end of each sector of said conduit register the chemical and/or physical status. A pressure difference is provided between the reagent delivery device and the sample conduit such that the pressure difference measured between the reagent delivery device and the end of the final individual sector is controlled to be greater than the total pressure drop between the sample delivery point and the end of the final individual sector. The invention further relates to an arrangement for carrying out said method.

A method and apparatus act on a sample liquid of a pulp and paper industry process water, such as a pulp slurry or white water. The sample is acted upon in an apparatus including sample flow chamber, a filtrate flow chamber, and a filter connecting the sample flow chamber with the filtrate flow chamber. A flow sample liquid, including solid substances such as fibers and filler materials (as well as dissolved and colloidal substances) is introduced through an inlet into the sample flow chamber. A main flow of the sample liquid is discharged through an outlet. A flow of filtrate is passed through a filter from the sample flow chamber into the filter flow chamber, thereby separating a predetermined fraction of solid substance from a minor portion of the introduced flow of sample liquid, in the filter. The minor portion of sample liquid corresponds to less than 1%, typically less than 0.1%, of the total introduced flow of sample liquid. A mat of solid substances is prevented from building up on the inlet side of the filter by inducing in the sample flow chamber turbulence or a high flow velocity of sample liquid adjacent the filter.

A method, apparatus and software for responding to a request for an on demand dataset by configuring and then executing a workflow process tailored to the requester's needs. The generated workflow gathers identified information from a repository, organizes its format and delivers it to the requester. The on demand dataset request specification is structured to allow independent specification of (1) data to be included, (2) policy on which value sources to use; (3) delivery mode—including real-time, batched, and one-time query modes, (4) output format, and (5) delivery and communications protocols and other on demand dataset properties. This separation of concerns allows a wide variety of on demand data set requirements from different requesters to be met. Delivery of information from an outsourced multi-source multi-tenant data repository to its tenants is a context in which the method is useful.

摘要:
Forming and maintaining a multi-source multi-tenant data repository on behalf of multiple tenants. Information in the multi-source multi-tenant data repository is received from multiple sources. Different sources and different data quality enhancement processes may yield different values for attributes of the same referred entity. Information in the multi-source multi-tenant data repository is tagged with annotations documenting the sources of the information, and any data quality processing actions applied to it. Tenants of the multi-source multi-tenant data repository have entitlement to values from some sources and to the results of some quality enhancement processes. Aspects of the method maintain this entitlement information; employ evolutionarily tracked source data tags; receive requests for information, locate the requested information, apply any sourcing preference, enforce entitlements and return entitled values to the requester. An outsourced reference data utility is one context where such a multi-source multi-tenant data repository is useful.
摘要:
A multi-source multi-tenant reference data utility and methods for forming and maintaining the same, delivering high quality reference data in response to requests from clients, implemented using a shared infrastructure, and also providing added value services using the client's reference data. Included are data cleansing and quality assurance of the received data with full tracking of the sourcing of each value, storage of resulting entity values in a repository which allows retrievals and enforces source based entitlements, and delivery of retrieved data in the form of on demand datasets supporting a wide range of client application needs. An advantageous implementation has additional services for reporting on data quality and usage, a selection of value adding data driven computations and business document storage. By using a shared infrastructure and amortizing the costs of data quality assurance across a plurality of clients, while ensuring that clients only receive values from data sources to which they are licensed, better quality data at lower cost is delivered.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to assisting credit account holders during economic hardship. More specifically, aspects of the disclosure relate to systems and methods for providing a rebate of at least a portion of a finance charge applied to a credit account. Unlike certain prior art systems and methods, embodiments disclosed herein may benefit both the credit account holder as well as the financial institution that extends the credit account. In one embodiment, it may be determined that several credit accounts meet a threshold of probability of having a charge-off. In certain embodiments, the number of accounts that receive a rebate may be limited to a certain percentage of credit accounts with a non-zero balance.

摘要:
Automated tax return preparation is provided using a relationship-based interview process coupled with universal data import. Information is collected through a process called the interview, during which a taxpayer is asked various questions about her background and relationships with financial institutions. The taxpayer provides to the tax planning software a list of financial institutions with which the taxpayer has a relationship, and the tax software retrieves tax data directly from the financial institutions. The combination of the interview, universal data import, and existing stored data enables an automated tax return system to prepare tax returns in advance with minimal user assistance.
