  • Publication number: 20240118318
    Abstract: A system and method for determining an open or closed position of a magnetically actuated vacuum interrupter. The method includes applying a voltage signal of a known voltage to the actuator over a predetermined period and determining a change in current over time during the period when the voltage signal is applied to the actuator using an output of a Rogowski coil. The method also includes calculating the inductance using the voltage and the change in current over time at a predetermined time during the period and using the calculated inductance to determine whether the actuator and thus the vacuum interrupter are in the open or closed position.

  • Patent number: 11900119
    Abstract: Various methods, apparatuses/systems, and media for automatically controlling operating state of one or more applications in a distributed operating system are disclosed. A processor creates a filesystem that contains a script configured for interacting with a distributed operating system application programming interface (API); and integrates the filesystem with a scheduler module to be run on a predefined schedule. The processor also creates a container, in response to the predefined schedule, in the distributed operating system, the container having the script installed therein; calls the distributed operating system API to obtain a list of applications in the distributed operating system based on the script; automatically controls the operating state of the corresponding one or more applications in the distributed operating system in response to the predefined schedule and the script; and destroys the container after controlling the operating state of the corresponding one or more applications.

  • Patent number: 11856052
    Abstract: Various methods, apparatuses/systems, and media for implementing a smart cloud deployment module is disclosed. A datacenter stores information data of all availability zones (AZs) associated with deployment of an application. A processor builds an availability zone (AZ) application programming interface (API) and calls the AZ API to retrieve the information data from the datacenter; dynamically and automatically determines, in response to calling the AZ API, prior to deploying the application, whether a first AZ defined in a deployment pipeline among the AZs within the datacenter is healthy for deployment of the application; and deploys the application utilizing the deployment pipeline when it is determined that the first AZ defined in the deployment pipeline is healthy. The processor also checks for another healthy AZ within the same datacenter or within other regions outside of the datacenter when it is determined that the first AZ is not healthy.

  • Publication number: 20230350665
    Abstract: Various methods, apparatuses/systems, and media for automatically upgrading an application are disclosed. A processor creates a dynamic machine learning (ML) model; trains the dynamic ML model and scans for SDK upgrade for the application against the dynamic ML model by implementing ML algorithm for predictions. The processor executes the SDK upgrade in response to detecting that the training of the dynamic ML model is completed to trigger the processor to perform the following automated processes: implement the ML algorithm against the trained dynamic ML model to generate predictive results data for deprecated reference corresponding to the application; evaluate the predictive results data to determine whether there is a match for the deprecated reference; and when it is determined that there is a match for the deprecated reference, automatically replace code and upgrade the application to newer version of the programming language specification.

  • Patent number: 11686042
    Abstract: A surface covering for use as a moss covering or patch of grass via application to a surface or substrate. The surface covering provides a decorative and durable and easily maintained surface covering. The covering is fabricated using groups of fibers, such as metallic, plastic, or other material fibers, e.g., stainless steel fibers or strands available commercially as steel wool or the like. The fibers or strands provide a core of a body of each blade or piece of the surface covering, which is useful to replicate a blade of grass or moss or to mimic a strand of hair. Each body of the strands further includes an outer layer or coating, which can be formed by painting, e.g., with an epoxy or other useful material that may be colored, the mesh of metal fibers to provide a durable body with a desired look and feel.

  • Patent number: 11645297
    Abstract: Various methods, apparatuses/systems, and media for implementing a smart database driver are disclosed. A receiver receives a request for establishing a connection between an application and a target database. A processor, operatively coupled to the receiver via a communication network, authenticates the application by implementing a java authentication authorization service (jaas). Authentication of the application is performed at runtime with connection properties and configuration details provided via system properties or environment variables. The processor also generates a database connection uniform resource locator (URL), validates the URL; and establishes a connection between the application and the target database based on the validation of the URL and successful authentication of the application.
