Abstract: A computer-implemented method of monitoring and/or controlling an electro-mechanical device, such as an electrical motor and/or generator, includes determining a first probability distribution of a virtual measurement variable, such as temperature at a predetermined position, of the electro-mechanical device. A confidence level is determined for a first value of the virtual measurement variable based on the first probability distribution. An operating mode of the electro-mechanical device is changed based on the confidence level, and/or an indication is displayed on a display. The indication instructs a user to change the operating mode of the electro-mechanical device.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a heating system and to a method for heating large-surface substrates.

Abstract: An artwork management method executed by one or more computers is provided. The artwork management method includes detecting, by a first computer included in the one or more computers, artwork included in a website, determining, by the first computer, whether or not a purchase transaction indicating purchase of the artwork detected is recorded in a blockchain network, and transmitting, by the first computer, a report indicating discovery of unauthorized use of the artwork, in a case where the first computer determines that the purchase transaction is not recorded. According to one aspect, the artwork management method suppresses illegal use of artwork while maintaining accessibility of the artwork.

Abstract: Remote memory management of the memory of a consumer computer by a producer computer is described.

Abstract: A contact device (200, 200?) and a method for testing a singulated electronic component (101). The contact device (200, 200?) comprises a plunger unit (202) comprising a chamber lid (220) and a nest (230) which is adapted to carry the singulated electronic component (101), and a socket unit (201) comprising a socket (132) and a chamber (210) having an open front side and surrounding the socket (132). The chamber (210) is adapted in that closing of the chamber (210) at its open front side (219) by the chamber lid (220) comprises automatically contacting the singulated electronic component (101) to the socket (132).

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method, system, and medium to transform a data object in a meta model based on a generic type. The system receives a request comprising a data object unrestricted to a predefined format from a client via a REST API. The system categorizes the data object into one of multiple generic types specified in a meta model. The plurality of generic types includes a thing, an information, a relationship, and a handler. Based on the categorized generic types, the system transforms the data object using a handler flow. A handler in the handler flow is defined by the client via the REST API based on receipt of the first request.

Abstract: The invention relates to an air heater (12) to be integrated into an air-carrying housing of a motor vehicle. The invention is characterized in that a flange plate (48) seals at least one exhaust gas discharge (54) from the vehicle interior by means of scaling elements between a fitting site for the air heater (12) and the flange plate (48) and between the air heater (12) and the flange plate (48).

Abstract: A method and a device for taking a sample from a vessel are described. A section of a sample collector is set into a controlled oscillation, in order to monitor a change in the oscillatory behavior about contact of the sample collector with a liquid to be picked up or another component, and to achieve better thorough mixing of the sample by means of the oscillation.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of manufacturing a heat exchanger (10) for an air heating apparatus (12) for integration into a housing which guides air. The heat exchanger has a heat exchanger body (14) with a longitudinal axis. According to the invention, the heat exchanger body (14) is at least partially fabricated in a pressure-casting process employing two molded masses (“cores”), with the molded masses being withdrawn from the mold in opposite directions (40, 42) extending along the longitudinal axis.

Abstract: The invention relates to a heat exchanger (10) for an air heating apparatus (12) for integration into a housing which guides air. The heat exchanger has a heat exchanger body (14) with a longitudinal axis. According to the invention, the heat exchanger body (14) has on its external surface (external side) a plurality of undular ribs (28) which extend essentially along its circumferential dimension, which ribs provide heat transfer surfaces.

Abstract: The invention relates to a heat exchanger (10) for an air heating apparatus (12) for integration into a housing which guides air. The heat exchanger has a longitudinal axis, wherewith air can be forcibly caused to flow around the heat exchanger in a “main flow direction” which is essentially perpendicular to said longitudinal axis. According to the invention, the heat exchanger has a cross sectional geometry [sic] perpendicular to the “main flow direction” which geometry is flattened with respect to a circular cross sectional geometry (32, 34, 36).
