Task System

This is the current look of the task system.

Basic Search

We implemented the basic search and connected it to the backend.
It is fully working now and allows multiple searches by single and or multiple input.
The input types may be "Inventor", "Assignee", "Title", "Patent Id" and "Claims".

Implemented Admin Console / potential API

So we have implemented an Admin Console and a socket for a potential API. We have some basic upkeep methods coded up so far. But any thoughts for useful API methods would be great. Please share your thoughts with us.

Added Facebook Compatibility

You may now sign up with Facebook. We are planning to implement some logic  around this as the project develops, but for now it allows for faster signups/ friend notifications. We are also planning on adding LinkedIn capabilities.

User Dashboard / Save Notes

The user is now capable of importing images and links from the web and adding them to his notes which can be saved to the dashboard and are accessible at any time.

Algorithmic Approach / IA Input

We had an idea to implement a similarity search for inventors/assignees in the same fields as the given inventor/assignee.
Most of the code is finished  only thing left is to implement the balance between the number of patents the user wants the algorithm to run on and the number of patents he wants to have displayed.
So we need to think how to display the results from each patent the similarity search was ran on, to ensure the best and correct number of results.

For now its done.
Only possible issue is that we made it work so it skips those patents for the algorithm that dont have any similarities or not enough for the purpose of displaying them in order.
One could make it display the rest from the first couple of patents but for now we do not think it is necessary since no specific field is requested.

Notepad for Users preforming search operations

We have almost finished coding a fully function word-editor and PDF saving notepad for users as they preform their search. You are also capable of importing images and links from the web to add to your notes.

We plan on incorporating the Facebook API / Google+ API into the notepad in order to allow posting of notes to your wall / sharing with your colleagues or friends.

User Dashboard

We have begun coding a user dashboard to allow for interaction with saved note files on the server/ usage statistics/ account modification. And in future implementations Facebook connectivity for asking/ communicating with colleagues and fellow users of the system.
