Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to generate an overall performance index. The overall performance index is generated from data values from multiple different datasources that measure the same aspect of network performance of wireless providers of interest. The data values are used to generate metrics that measure the same aspect of network performance. The metrics are indexed and combined to generate an overall performance index.

Abstract: A container for transporting wet batteries in aircraft, including a wax coated cardboard box portion having a selected width and a selected depth and secured on its bottom to a wax coated cardboard pedestal base which has a width at least 1.5 times the box portion selected width and a depth at least 1.5 times the box portion selected depth. The box portion also includes a lid structure in the top of the box portion and securable in a closed position defining a completely enclosed space for securing a battery for transport. Two absorbent blankets are provided within the box portion for wrapping around a battery, and a two sealable impermeable bag are also provided for enclosing a blanket wrapped battery within the enclosed space during transport of the battery. An absorbent foam liner is secured within the box portion surrounding the enclosed space.
