Patent number: 11922182Abstract: A system comprises data processing hardware and memory hardware. The memory hardware is in communication with the data processing hardware, and stores instructions that, when executed on the data processing hardware, cause the data processing hardware to perform a plurality of operations. In some examples, one of the operations may include receiving instance management configuration data for a single-tenant software-as-a-service (SaaS) application. Another operation may include further include receiving an image of the single-tenant SaaS application. Yet another operation can include generating, by the control plane manager, a control plane based on the instance management configuration data. The control plane is configured to create multiple instances of the single-tenant SaaS application based on the received image, and to manage the instances of the single-tenant SaaS application based on the received instance management configuration data.Type: GrantFiled: December 29, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Roy Peterkofsky, William Earl, Martin Taillefer, Michael Dahlin, Chandra Prasad, Jaroslaw Kowalski, Anna Berenberg, Kristian Kennaway, Alexander Mohr, Jaidev Haridas

Patent number: 8567976Abstract: The present invention is an integrated control system for use with various home appliances, such as washing machine, dryers, refrigerators, dishwashers, and the like. In a first embodiment of the present invention, the integrated controls are incorporated into a polycarbonate clear door panel, and incorporate proximity switches and controls to provide control and operation of the applicance. Light emitting diodes (LEDs) are optionally incorporated into a door handle for the appliance in an area out of sight such that only the light produced by the LEDs is seen and illuminates a handle for opening the door of the appliance. Additionally, opaque glass technology may be incorporated into one or more surfaces of the appliance which enables an opaque panel to become transparent to view the content of the interior of the appliance, such as a refrigerator.Type: GrantFiled: December 8, 2010Date of Patent: October 29, 2013Assignee: Magna International Inc.Inventors: Bradley Ray Hamlin, Steven Martin Kowalski, John Joseph Bleau

Publication number: 20120091682Abstract: A modular running board adaptable for use with various types of vehicles having different wheel bases. In a first embodiment, the running board includes a first long board and a second long board connectable to a pick-up truck having crew cab or quad cab with four full doors. In another embodiment, the first long board is connected to a short board, and both the long board and short board are connected to a pick-up truck having an extended cab, with two full doors and two half-doors. In either of the first two embodiments, a coupling piece is used for connecting the first long board to the second long board, or the first long board to the short board. In yet another embodiment, only the first long board is connected to a vehicle, such as a pickup truck having a regular cab with two full doors only.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 13, 2011Publication date: April 19, 2012Applicant: Magna International Inc.Inventor: Steven Martin Kowalski
