Abstract: In an approach to ride chaining, one or more computer processors receive a request from a user for a transportation to a final destination in a vehicle. The one or more computer processors determine that a plurality of travel segments is required for the transportation to the final destination. The one or more computer processors reserve a first vehicle for a first travel segment of the plurality of travel segments to a first destination. The one or more computer processors, after commencement of the first travel segment and before completion of the first travel segment, determine a second travel segment of the plurality of travel segments to a second destination. The one or more computer processors reserve a second vehicle for the second travel segment of the plurality of travel segments.

Abstract: In an approach for determining temporal solar capacity navigation routes, a computer receives navigation criteria navigation criteria that includes at least a starting location, a destination, a date, a time, and a temporal solar capacity. The computer determines one or more navigation routes based on the received navigation criteria. The computer creates a temporal solar capacity navigation map based on the received navigation criteria. The computer determines one or more suggested navigation routes from the determining one or more navigation routes based on the created temporal solar capacity navigation map.

Abstract: Tools, methods and systems for detecting and reporting the presence of an obstruction to an AC system of the present disclosure are able to detect the presence of the obstruction using one or more sensors connected to the air conditioning unit and displaying an alert on the computer system of the AC system when the sensors detect the presence of the obstruction. By displaying an alert at the computer system's output device, the presence of the obstruction is brought to the user's attention, allowing the user to take remedial action as needed before initiating the air conditioning system into operation, preventing the obstruction from harming the components of AC system if the system was initiated while the obstruction was still present. Additionally, the AC system may further disable or prevent the operation and initiation of itself when the sensors of the air conditioning system detect the presence of an obstruction.

Abstract: A computer-implemented process for organizing pins of a same social application based on proximity of others, the computer-implemented process comprising: detecting an account of a second user of the same social application on a mobile device by a first user of the same social application; measuring a proximity of the second user from a first user of the same social application using a proximity sensing technology; in response to first user and the second user being within a predetermined distance of each other, arranging items, also known as “pins” of the first user, the second user, or both, into a new arrangement according to predetermined criteria comprising common interests, differing interests and personal information of the second user; and performing a selected action from a predetermined set of actions including highlighting images and products that are in demand using the new arrangement.

Abstract: A set of characteristics is constructed corresponding to a content of a message. For a characteristic in the set of characteristics, a skill factor is computed that is needed to achieve a degree of comprehension of the content having the characteristic. A gap is computed between the skill factor corresponding to the characteristic and a skill factor associated with a recipient of the message. An annotation is selected in response to evaluating that the gap exceeds a tolerance value. The annotation is applied in the message to an identifier of the recipient.

Abstract: In an approach to determining pavement markings, a computer determines a location of a first computing device based on data received from one or more location devices associated with the first computing device. The computer then retrieves pavement marking data for one or more pavement markings for the location and determines whether one or more existing pavement markings are present at the location. Responsive to determining that one or more existing pavement markings are present at the location, the computer determines whether each of the one or more existing pavement markings meet one or more pre-determined thresholds for an acceptable pavement marking quality. Furthermore, responsive to determining each of the one or more existing pavement markings do not meet the one or more pre-determined thresholds for an acceptable pavement marking quality level, the computer provides pavement marking data to the first computing device.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for automated service management includes identifying a period of time to perform a service on a transporter, wherein the transporter is one of: a vehicle, an aircraft, a watercraft, or a rail based transportation. A first location within a vicinity of the transporter is identified, wherein the vicinity is based at least in part on a known location of the transporter. The transporter is instructed to relocate to the first location and responsive to the computer determining the service of the transporter is complete, the transporter is instructed to relocate to the known location.
