Abstract: Systems and methods for cloud-based file sharing, where templates are provided for creating workflow instances which enable the sharing of managed objects. Reusable workflow templates are stored in the repository of a cloud-based file sharing system as objects that define components of the workflow, or placeholders for these components. A user instantiates a workflow instance from one of the templates and configures the workflow instance to identify content objects or forms, tasks related to the content objects, and users assigned to perform the tasks. The workflow instance is stored as an object in the repository. Users assigned to tasks are authorized through the workflow instance to access the content objects or forms to perform the tasks.

Abstract: A transmission frame is communicated to cause a media idle measurement period on a contention based communication media. The media idle measurement period (i.e., “quiet period”) provides a period of inactivity on the communications medium that may be used to detect for the presence of foreign signals such as radio broadcast interference, noise, or other signals, or may be used for calibration of circuitry coupled to the communications medium. Idle measurement periods may be caused regularly (e.g., periodically). The transmission frame may include an explicit instruction for the media idle measurement period or may cause the media idle measurement period by simulating a collision on the communications media.

Abstract: A waste water filtration tank receives waste water under hydrostatic pressure. The tank collects solids using a filter screen. When the screen becomes clogged with collected solids, liquid is forced into a float chamber which contains a float. As waste water collects in the float chamber, the float rises, as do a beam member and a pair of rod members to which the float is attached. When the float reaches a predetermined level, cams contained on the rising rod members act on spring-loaded latches, opening the latches and permitting a spring loaded sleeve and reservoir gate to rise, opening the reservoir outlet. Accumulated solids are then drained from the reservoir and the backwash from the screen chamber also clears the clogged screen.
