Publication number: 20230353586Abstract: For each item represented within log events that have a power law-oriented distribution, first and second metrics for the item are computed based on the log events which pertain to the item. The items are organized over bins according to the first metric. The bins correspond to different ranges of the first metric. For each bin, the items in the bin are ordered according to the second metric. A plot of the bins over which the items have been organized according to the first metric, is graphically displayed, which includes displaying, for each bin, the items in the bin as have been ordered according to the second metric.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 28, 2022Publication date: November 2, 2023Inventors: Martin Fraser Arlitt, Manish Marwah, Mark Kendall Vaszary

Patent number: 10352801Abstract: Intelligent temperature and pressure gauge assemblies (52) for use with vessels (24) having pressurized hazard suppression materials therein include temperature and pressure sensors (136, 138) coupled with a digital processor (72) with associated memory for storing empirical temperature and pressure data. The data includes normalized linear temperature-pressure curves consistent with static or slowly changing temperature conditions experienced by the vessels (24), as well as nonlinear temperature-pressure curves consistent with rapidly changing temperature conditions. In use, the assemblies (52) repeatedly sense temperature and pressure conditions of the hazard suppression material and compare sensed values with stored values, and generate an output in conformance with the comparison. In this fashion, the assemblies (52) compensate for rapidly changing temperatures without generating false failure signals.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2017Date of Patent: July 16, 2019Assignee: Fike CorporationInventors: Bradford T.
