  • Publication number: 20240123592
    Abstract: Systems and methods for remote power tool control are provided. In one example, a battery pack is coupled to a power tool device. The battery pack includes a pack transceiver and a pack electronic processor. The pack electronic processor is coupled to the pack transceiver and is configured to determine that the power tool device is remotely controllable. The pack electronic processor is further configured to receive, wirelessly via a pack transceiver of the battery pack, a remote control command from a mobile device, and to provide the remote control command to the power tool device. The system further includes a tool electronic processor of the power tool device in communication with the pack electronic processor. The tool electronic processor is configured to control the power tool device to perform an action specified by the remote control command in response to receiving the remote control command.

  • Patent number: 9658889
    Abstract: Managing memory allocation for application deployment on a J2EE® server. The server receives applications for processing. The server also receives defined memory boundaries of the application. A custom memory-aware classloader is generated on the server and tracks memory allocated to the application during application processing. Excess memory usage characteristic of the application is detected, and an out of memory exception is thrown, without affecting other applications on the server. A responsive action is taken without affecting other applications processed by the server.

  • Publication number: 20110095872
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to assuring manifest integrity for a shipping container of objects and provide a method, system and computer program product for manifest integrity management via radio frequency identification (RFID). In an embodiment of the invention, a manifest integrity management method can include scanning different RFID tags affixed to different objects for placement in a container. The method also can include determining both common data for all of the different RFID tags, and unique data for each of the different RFID tags. Finally, the method can include encoding an RFID tag for the container with an entry for the common data for the different RFID tags, and each unique data for each of the different RFID tags. In this way, a manifest can be created for the objects in the container.

  • Patent number: 7827200
    Abstract: The present invention includes a method for managing serialization of ELECTRONIC PRODUCT CODES (EPCs). The method can include a step of identifying a software system for managing Tag Data Specification (TDS) compliant EPCs. The software system can include a database containing two or more related tables. A tuple can be included for each unique nonserialized portion of an EPC ID URN. The database can utilize the nonserialized portion to manage a serialized portion of the EPC. In one embodiment, the database can use the nonserialized portion of an EPC to automatically generate the serialized portion of the EPC. Different sets of sequentially increasing (or sequentially decreasing) serial numbers (that are assigned to the associated unique nonserialized portions of the EPCs) can be associated with different nonserialized values.
