Transaction-enabled systems and methods for resource acquisition for a fleet of machines
The present disclosure describes transaction-enabling systems and methods. A system can include a controller and a fleet of machines, each having at least one of a compute task requirement, a networking task requirement, and an energy consumption task requirement. The controller may include a resource requirement circuit to determine an amount of a resource for each of the machines to service the task requirement for each machine, a forward resource market circuit to access a forward resource market, and a resource distribution circuit to execute an aggregated transaction of the resource on the forward resource market.
System and process for recovering methane and carbon dioxide from biogas and reducing greenhouse gas emissions
Various illustrative embodiments of a system and process for recovering high-quality biomethane and carbon dioxide product streams from biogas sources and utilizing or sequestering the product streams are provided. The system and process synergistically yield a biomethane product which meets gas pipeline quality specifications and a carbon dioxide product of a quality and form that allows for its transport and sequestration or utilization and reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. The system and process result in improved access to gas pipelines for products, an improvement in the carbon intensity rating of the methane fuel, and improvements in generation of credits related to reductions in emissions of greenhouse gases.

PERSONAL INFORMATION DATABASE MODIFICATION AND MONITORING
A database management engine provides a user interface that allows users to access and modify employee information in a database. The database includes entries for employees, and each database entry includes identifying information about the associated employee. A user can request to modify data within database entries, for instance in order to update information associated with an employee. Responsive to the request, the database management engine identifies liabilities associated with the database modification stemming from associated tax laws. Based on the identified tax liabilities, the engine computes the aggregate tax liability owed by the employer and/or employee. Before modifying a database entry, the engine modifies the user interface to include interface elements detailing the computed aggregate tax liability. The user explicitly can be required to confirm the database modification in view of the aggregate tax liability. Once a user gives explicit confirmation, the engine modifies the database entry.

Method for creating and using registry of clinical trial participants
A method of screening participants for a clinical trial by obtaining identifying information chosen from a biometric sample, personal information, physical attributes, and combinations thereof from a prospective participant, optionally generating a unique identifier code, populating a database server with the unique identifier code and participant information and storing the information on non-transitory computer readable media, screening the participant for a clinical trial based on either the unique identifier code and/or participant information and searching for a match with existing participant information in the database server and a plurality of outside databases to determine protocol violations, and determining eligibility of the participant for the clinical trial and preventing the protocol violations. A system for screening participants for a clinical trial and preventing future violations while currently enrolled in a clinical trial.
Retail HSA funding and payment mechanism
Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments describing the creation and funding of tax-advantaged accounts at a point-of-sale. By immediately funding the tax-advantaged account at the point-of-sale using a funding and payment mechanism, the disclosed embodiments may effectively and instantly fund a tax-advantaged account at a point-of-sale. The funding and payment mechanism overcomes the lapse in availability of funds inherent in legacy systems. Thus, an account holder may then immediately pay a provider from the tax-advantaged account for qualified expenses. The disclosure also presents a credit feature allowing prospective account holders to initially fund the tax-advantaged account. At the point-of-sale, the prospective account holder may link their newly created tax-advantaged account to other accounts, allowing the system to detect potential over-contributions. The disclosure also presents a retroactive analysis feature that analyzes linked accounts to create tax-advantaged transactions in transactions completed earlier in a plan year.

System and method for processing real-time online donations
A method including a system receiving, in real-time and through a computer network, a donation authorization from a donor via a donor user interface executed on a donor device of the donor. The donation authorization can comprise: a donation amount, a donor token for the donor, a donee first token for a donee, and/or donee information. The donor token can be uniquely associated with a donor account for the donor, and the donor account can be maintained by a sender financial institution. The donee first token can be uniquely associated with a donee account for the donee, and the donee account can be maintained by a receiver financial institution. The method further can include the system, after receiving the donation authorization, instructing or facilitating, in real-time and through the computer network, the receiver financial institution to post in real-time the donation amount to the donee account. Other embodiments are disclosed.
