  • Patent number: 10708346
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method processes a simple object access protocol (SOAP) command. The method includes interpreting an XML script to perform a function contained in the XML script, the XML script containing the SOAP command, parsing the SOAP command from the XML script, and passing the SOAP command to a SOAP interpreter for execution.

  • Patent number: 10069937
    Abstract: A system includes a server and a controller embedded in a device. Both the server and the embedded controller are capable of communicating over a computer network. The embedded controller sends a command to the server over the computer network that identifies an instance of the device. In response, the server identifies the instance of the device based on the command, retrieves data that is specific to the instance of the device, and sends the data to the embedded controller over the computer network.

  • Publication number: 20150074271
    Abstract: The state of an apparatus is reported to a remote computer using an embedded device in the apparatus. The embedded device detects the state, generates a message that reports the state using a self-describing computer language, and sends the message to the remote computer. The remote computer receives the message and extracts the state of the embedded device from the message.

  • Patent number: 7550187
    Abstract: An exemplary moisture barrier membrane 10 comprises a waterproof adhesive layer, (14) a carrier support, (12) and a release liner (16) composite having a paper sheet, (20) cutting strings, (22) a polyolefin (24) coating or film for holding the strings against the paper and apart from the waterproof adhesive layer, and a release agent (26) such as silicone or wax over the polyolefin coating or film. This construction allows for relatively thin paper and strings to be used, such that tear resistance is conferred upon the release liner composite as a whole.
