Filed:

Jul 13, 2006

Appl. No.:

11/486476

Inventors:

Baiju Shah - Chicago IL, US
James Richmond - Chicago IL, US
Mikhail Shemyakin - Chicago IL, US

Assignee:

Accenture Global Services Limited - Dublin

International Classification:

G06F 7/00

US Classification:

701 30, 12340613

Abstract:

A system and method for monitoring fuel efficiency of a vehicle is provided. Fuel efficiency of a vehicle may be monitored in real-time using telemetry transmitted from the vehicle. The telemetry may be analyzed in combination with a fuel efficiency model in order to determine whether the real-time fuel efficiency determination deviates from a baseline fuel efficiency. The real-time fuel efficiency monitoring system and method may be used for feedback for the driver, such as sending real-time messages to the driver to modify operation of the vehicle to increase fuel efficiency. The fuel efficiency model may further be used to assign vehicles in a fleet to particular routes, vehicles to particular drivers, or vehicles to particular routes with particular drivers.

Assignee:

Accenture Global Services Limited - Dublin

International Classification:

G06Q 40/00

US Classification:

705 51, 707705, 709229

Abstract:

A content bank for objects hosts all information regarding an object and serves as a proxy for that object. The content bank comprises at least one instance of a digital identity corresponding the object. Object identity modules or services are available through the digital identity instance. Via the content bank system, the digital identity instance receives object-related information from a source and targeted to a specific service. Conversely, the digital identity instance also serves to determine when object-related information should be provided to a third party by a given service, or when object-related information needs to be manipulated by one or more services. A multi-mode interface is available for third parties to communicate with the digital identity instance. In this manner, third parties are not only able to access data regarding an object, but are actually able to communicate with an object via the digital identity instance.

International Classification:

G06Q 10/00

US Classification:

705 736, 705 737, 705 738

Abstract:

Current monitoring systems often provide the operating condition of a specific component and do not consider the impact of a specific failure upon an entire system or a business. Nor do the current systems provide an avenue for the business to predict the loss, as well as its impact, and make an educated decision of mitigating the loss based upon economic, environmental, and health and safety considerations. Methods and systems are provided for predicting loss events, impacts of loss events, and providing potential corrective measures to reduce or eliminate the occurrence or impact of the loss events. One aspect relates to the use of system-wide information to predict variables that are directly linked to business impact, such as production loss. Extraneous and transactional data are also utilized according to other aspects of the invention.

US Classification:

709/229000, 713/200000

Abstract:

Adding contextual information to a plurality of discrete components facilitates the creation of enhanced data. Prior to the addition of the contextual information, each discrete component may be translated into a common representation format when necessary. The transformed discrete components resulting from the addition of contextual information are then aggregated according to at least one aggregation rule to provide the enhanced content. The enhanced content may be provided to or received from parties external to the given content network under the control of a digital identity associated with the given content network. Feedback regarding enhanced content provided to third parties may be used to further modify the contextual information corresponding to the enhanced content.

International Classification:

G06F017/60

US Classification:

705/026000

Abstract:

With the permission of a targeted recipient, a service provider obtains access to schedule information of a targeted recipient and, based on the schedule information determines scheduled availability of the targeted recipient to accept fulfillment of the service. Additionally, permission-based access to location information of the targeted recipient is obtained and a location of the targeted recipient is determined based on the location information. Thereafter, fulfillment of the service is directed to the location of the targeted recipient. At the time of service fulfillment, service personnel are provided access to location and identification information of the targeted recipient such that fulfillment of the service is further enhanced. In one embodiment of the present invention, package delivery may be automatically scheduled or rescheduled in this manner. In this manner, service providers can efficiently carry out fulfillment of their services while simultaneously accommodating schedules and preferences of targeted recipients of their services.
