  • Patent number: 11811712
    Abstract: A computer system receives from a messaging system a first input commencing an analytic conversation between the computer system and an electronic device. The messaging system is communicatively connected with the electronic device and executes a messaging application on the electronic device. The computer system identifies a data source corresponding to the analytic conversation. The computing system receives from the messaging system a second input specifying a natural language command related to the data source. The computer system generates an interpretation corresponding to the natural language command and queries the data source according to the interpretation. The computer system generates a first data visualization using a first subset of data fields from the data source and sends a first representation of the first data visualization to the messaging system, for display on the electronic device.

  • Patent number: 11522820
    Abstract: A computing system receives from a messaging system a first input identifying a data source. The computing system receives from the messaging system a second input specifying a natural language command related to the data source. The system translates the second input into a set of parameters for building a first data visualization from the data source. The system calls one or more API functions provided by a data visualization server, and the computing system receives from the data visualization server a first data visualization that includes a first subset of data fields from the data source. The system generates a representation of the first data visualization and sends the representation to the messaging system, which in turn sends the representation to an electronic device for display on the device.

  • Patent number: 11391766
    Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention include a method and system for metering an electrical grid comprising at least one processor executing instructions from a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of an electrical grid fault detection system. In some embodiments of the system, the instructions cause a processor to calculate a prediction of whether power delivery to at least a portion of the electrical grid is functioning abnormally using voltage sensing devices coupled to at least one feeder, where one or more of the voltage sensing devices are responsive to a determination that the power delivery is functioning abnormally. Further in some embodiments, the determination includes the electrical grid fault detection system receiving at least one signal or voltage reading from the electrical grid based at least in part on a sensed or received voltage level or range of voltage level.

  • Patent number: 8493734
    Abstract: A multi-case rack for an industrial computer includes a rack body and a plurality of removable cases. The removable case can be installed with either its axial end positioned ahead, thus compatible to both a front circuit board and a rear circuit board. The removable case has an anti-shock HD mount capable of holding either two 2.5? hard drives or one 3.5? hard drive. The removable case allows heat-dissipating fans to be installed and positioned in a screw-free, hot-swap manner. The removable cases can be readily installed into or from a rack body.

  • Publication number: 20120252344
    Abstract: A heat-dissipating dual-system rackmount for a 1U industrial computer includes a removable rackmount and two removable computer cases. The rackmount features that two lateral plates of the removable computer case are formed with vents for heat dissipation, and that two laterals and a partition of the rackmount are formed with air channels, along which air channels air vents are formed corresponding to the vents for heat dissipation of the removable computer case, thereby improving ventilation among the heat-generating components in the removable computer case and in turn providing good heat-dissipation effects.
