20090313103 | Electric Vehicle Charging Transaction Interface for Managing Electric Vehicle Charging Transactions - A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer program product for managing an electric vehicle charging transaction. A set of principals associated with the electric vehicle charging transaction is identified. Electric vehicle charging information is retrieved from a set of sources. An energy transaction plan is generated using the electric vehicle charging information. A charging phase of the electric vehicle charging transaction is initiated for an electric vehicle connected to a charging station in accordance with the energy transaction plan. The charging phase comprises at least one of charging the electric vehicle with electricity, storing electricity in an electric storage mechanism associated with the electric vehicle, and removing electricity from the electric storage mechanism to de-charge the electric vehicle. In response to completion of the charging phase, the process then settles the financial obligations of a subset of principals in accordance with the energy transaction plan. | 12-17-2009 |

An amount of the payment is calculated using payment terms in profiles of the set of payees. The payment includes funds from at least one of a payer fund and an incentive fund. | 02-25-2010 |
20100049737 | Energy Transaction Notification Service for Presenting Charging Information of an Electric Vehicle - A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer usable program code for managing electric vehicle charging information. In one embodiment, the process receives charging process data. The charging process data may be stored in a data repository and associated with a user to form historical user data. The process then generates a notification in response to detecting a condition for triggering the generation of the notification. The notification comprises a set of recommendations for achieving a set of optimization objectives. In addition, the set of recommendations are derived from at least one of the historical user data and a remote data source. Thereafter, the process presents the notification to a user using a set of notification preferences. | 02-25-2010 |
20120191524 | Electric Vehicle Charging Transaction Interface for Managing Electric Vehicle Charging Transactions - According to one embodiment of the present invention, a computer manages an electric vehicle charging transaction. A set of principals is identified associated with the charging transaction for an electric vehicle. A principal is an entity having an interest in the charging transaction. Electric vehicle charging information is retrieved from a set of sources. An energy transaction plan is generated during a pre-charge phase using the electric vehicle charging information and based on preferences of one or more principals to govern the charging transaction. The computer initiates a charging phase of the charging transaction for an electric vehicle connected to a charging station according to the energy transaction plan. The charging phase comprises charging the electric vehicle with electricity, storing electricity in the electric vehicle, and removing electricity to de-charge the electric vehicle. The computer settles financial obligations among principals according to the energy transaction plan. | 07-26-2012 |

20120325716 | Opening Feature For Packaging Having Absorbent Articles Contained Therein - A package includes a plurality of disposable absorbent articles and a packaging having a front panel, a back panel, a top panel, a bottom panel, and a pair of side panels. The panels cooperatively define an interior compartment. At least one of the side panels has a longitudinal central axis, a pair of side edges, a gusset disposed adjacent the top panel, and a line of weakness having a first portion disposed on one side of the longitudinal central axis, a second portion disposed on the opposite side of the longitudinal central axis, and a third portion spanning between and connecting the first and second portions. The third portion of the line of weakness is spaced from the ends of the first and second portions. The plurality of disposable absorbent articles is compressed within the interior compartment and arranged in at least one row extending between the side panels. | 12-27-2012 |

20100290996 | METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS BASED ON CULTURING MICROORGANISMS IN LOW SEDIMENTAL FLUID SHEAR CONDITIONS - This invention is directed to applying a low sedimental fluid shear environment to manipulate microorganisms, and to microorganisms and compositions obtained based on such manipulation. Specifically, the present invention provides methods of modifying a molecular genetic or phenotypic characteristic (e.g., virulence, stress resistance or biofilm formation) of a microorganism by culturing in a low sedimental shear environment. One or more ion concentrations in the culture can be modulated in order to inhibit or amplify the extent of the modification. The present invention also provides microorganisms obtained from a low sedimental shear culture, which exhibit modified and desirable phenotypic characteristics, as well as therapeutic, vaccine and bioindustrial products prepared from such microorganisms. Further, the present invention provides methods for identifying molecules that modulate responses of a microorganism to a low sedimental shear environment and for determining the relevance of such molecules to pathogenenicity of the microorganism. | 11-18-2010 |
