A new generation Giga App for seamlessly merging online e-commerce system(s) with social networking system(s) is disclosed. According to the embodiments of the present invention, the Giga App incorporates a virtual mail application that enables: 1) transformation of a traditional email application into a virtual mail application with an envelope view, letter view or e-card view for better online advertising presentation effect; and 2) improvement of online advertising results through integration of user-interactive sponsor advertisements into said virtual mail application. These are revolutionary technologies to disrupt the traditional unfriendly list-view email online advertising process, to effectively address the thorny issue of user-ignored marketing emails, and to significantly improve the poor response rates of traditional email marketing through embedded user-interactive sponsor advertisements. Thus, a win-win situation of email infrastructure environment is created for all parties involved.

Techniques for buy-side order matching in the trading of financial instruments using a centralized matching engine having one or more storage devices including rules and order parameters for a plurality of buy-side parties. The centralized matching engine includes one or more transmitters and receivers communicatively coupled to a network and one or more processors operatively coupled to the one or more storage devices and the one or more transmitters and receivers. At least one message sent over the network by a plurality of buy-side parties and is received by the central matching engine to set the rules or order parameters. At least one order of at least two of the plurality of buy-side parties is matched based on the rules and the order parameters. A message is transmitted over the network to a sell-side party indicating that trade negotiation can commence.

The present invention envisions a comprehensive platform (the “IPwe Platform”) that utilizes blockchain and smart contracts to address and improve upon the significant deficiencies that currently exist in the global IP market (patents, trademarks, copyrights, etc.). The objective of the IPwe Platform is creating transparency in (i) patent ownership, (ii) patent identification and (iii) patent coverage and value. In addition, by providing the network, a guaranteed buy program can be initiated that provides specific guaranteed value to intellectual property assets listed by verified brokers.

A system and method for the secure management of digital contracts utilizes technology from the following fields: digital timestamping, encryption, distributed storage, and distributed payment systems. The existing state-of-the-art contract management systems require counter-parties to give a substantial level of trust to third parties to perform functions such as storage and verification. This system and method reduces the amount of trust that the counterparties need to give to a single third party. The system and method may be used for the secure construction and management of digital contract data and metadata.

A transaction system has Internet-connected partner platforms which display webpages with an Offer-Now button initiating coded instructions to display an electronic input form enabling a person to configure a transaction offer, and an Internet-connected service enterprise providing the coded instructions to the partners, configured specifically to partner requirements. Upon the person activating the Offer Now button from a mobile device, a verification code is sent to the device, to be returned to verify the device, and offer input provided through the device and the electronic form is tracked to be saved as an offer for the transaction.

A system and method for facilitating foreclosure on collateral is disclosed. An example system may include a lending agreement storage circuit structured to store a plurality of lending agreement data comprising at least one lending agreement, wherein the lending agreement comprises a lending condition data comprising terms and condition data of the at least one lending agreement related to a foreclosure condition on at least one asset that provides a collateral condition related to a collateral asset for securing a repayment obligation of the at least one lending agreement; a data collection services circuit structured to monitor the lending condition data and to detect a default condition based on a change to the lending condition data; and a smart contract services circuit structured to interpret the default condition and communicate a default condition indication that initiates a foreclosure procedure based on the collateral condition and the default condition.

A trading platform for transacting financial instruments, and in particular the derivatives having an execution date and a later maturity date. The trading platform combines the advantages of derivatives trading and virtual currency to increase earnings.

Methods for generating and using a value function include inputting at least one variable parameter, inputting at least one environmental parameter, defining a relationship between the at least one input variable parameter and the at least one input environmental parameter, and generating a value function based on the input parameters and the defined relationship, the value function returning a real number. Systems for generating and using a value function include a variable parameter database including variable parameters, an environmental parameter database including environmental parameters, a processing component configured to receive at least one variable parameter from the variable parameter database; receive at least one environmental parameter from the environmental parameter database; define a relationship between the at least one input variable parameter and the at least one input environmental parameter; and generate a value function based on the input parameters and the defined relationship, the value function returning a real number.

Transportation systems have artificial intelligence including neural networks for recognition and classification of objects and behavior including natural language processing and computer vision systems. The transportation systems involve sets of complex chemical processes, mechanical systems, and interactions with behaviors of operators. System-level interactions and behaviors are classified, predicted and optimized using neural networks and other artificial intelligence systems through selective deployment, as well as hybrids and combinations of the artificial intelligence systems, neural networks, expert systems, cognitive systems, genetic algorithms and deep learning.

A system for term based secure information exchange is provided where the system is made of a web based mediator platform and a centralized server. The information includes a personal information (PII), social information, financial information as well as other specific context related information between the parties in exchange of any commercial gain of the information sharing party. The web based mediator platform of present system allows user to access the platform using any smart user device, select a terms for information exchange from the preset terms over the platform or create custom terms, create a terms link or code with the selected terms, and publish or share said term link or code over various web touch points over internet. According to present embodiment, the system allows any second party wants to access information of first party to review the terms, accept and then allows to exchange the information.
