Patent number: 11774124Abstract: A method for evaluating a building signature operational model (BSOM) associated with a building signature intelligent electronic device (BSIED) includes processing building signature operational data (BSOD) on a cloud-connected central processing unit to identify the BSIED from which the BSOD was received, and to determine if a current BSOM associated with the BSIED, and used by the BSIED to generate the BSOD, needs to be updated. In response to determining that the current BSOM needs to be updated, a new BSOM is selected for the BSIED from a BSOM library based, at least in part, on one or more characteristics associated with the BSIED. The new BSOM is transmitted to the BSIED for installation on the BSIED.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2021Date of Patent: October 3, 2023Assignee: Schneider Electric USA, Inc.Inventors: Anthony R. Gray, Jeffrey W. Yeo, Johannes Menzel

Patent number: 8984034Abstract: A method of acquiring data and performing calculations on the data using a provider service. A provider ticket service (PTS) receives tickets from one or more clients. Each ticket includes a calculation identifier and a payload. The calculation identifier identifies a calculation to be performed using information in the payload. The PTS associates a unique ticket identifier with each ticket. A ticket manager submits a selected ticket from the PTS to a provider host service (PHS), which determines which provider is to perform the calculation identified by the selected ticket by inspecting provider identification information in the selected ticket. The PHS launches a provider host thread (PHT) that invokes the provider determined to perform the calculation identified by the calculation identifier of the selected ticket. The provider performs the calculation and returns its result to the PHS, which passes the result back to the PTS, which returns the result to the requesting client.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2010Date of Patent: March 17, 2015Assignee: Schneider Electric USA, Inc.Inventors: Chad Andrew Lloyd, Jason D. McClanahan, John Jeffrey Dodson, Jeffrey W. Yeo, Marcus E. Little, Yixiong Zheng, Theresa K. Wall, Coni Christine Wimsatt

Patent number: 7246014Abstract: An Enterprise Energy Management (“EEM”) software system is disclosed that displays EEM data and allows a user to interact with the data to better understand and manage their electrical system. The EEM software system collects real-time, near real-time and historical input data from various data sources, creates useful information from that data by filtering and isolating relevant data and performing analytics on the data, displays that data to the user in an easy to understand format, and allows the user to interact with the displayed data. The EEM software allows the user to perform what-if analysis, make changes in their system and verify results of those changes. The graphical user interfaces provide context sensitive and relevant guidance to novice and expert users.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2004Date of Patent: July 17, 2007Assignee: Power Measurement Ltd.Inventors: J. Bradford Forth, Peter C. Cowan, Douglas Stephen Ransom, Thomas S. Stevenson, Jeffrey W. Yeo

Patent number: 7188003Abstract: A power management architecture for an electrical power distribution system, or portion thereof, is disclosed. The architecture includes multiple intelligent electronic devices (“IED's”) distributed throughout the power distribution system to manage the flow and consumption of power from the system. The IED's are linked via a network to back-end servers. Power management application software and/or hardware components operate on the IED's and the back-end servers and inter-operate via the network to implement a power management application. The architecture provides a scalable and cost effective framework of hardware and software upon which such power management applications can operate to manage the distribution and consumption of electrical power by one or more utilities/suppliers and/or customers which provide and utilize the power distribution system. Security mechanisms are further provided which protect and otherwise ensure the authenticity of communications.Type: GrantFiled: January 5, 2004Date of Patent: March 6, 2007Assignee: Power Measurement Ltd.Inventors: Douglas S.
