Abstract: An example power tool includes a battery pack receiving portion including a battery pack compartment including a battery pack support structure configured to receive and support a battery pack including battery terminals. The power tool further includes a terminal block located in the battery pack receiving portion and including tool terminals. At least two terminals of the tool terminals are configured to electrically and physically couple to the battery terminals. The power tool further includes an insertable device compartment located in the battery pack receiving portion and configured to receive an insertable wireless communication device including a first electronic processor, a transceiver, and device terminals. At least one device terminal is configured to electrically and physically couple to at least one shared terminal of the at least two terminals of the tool terminals. The insertable wireless communication device is configured to wirelessly communicate with an external device.

Abstract: Techniques are described for automatically detecting defects in webs using ultraviolet light to excite fluorescing agents in various layers of the web. In one example. a system for detecting defects in the web includes an inspection device and a processing unit. The inspection device includes a lighting unit, a filter, and an image capture device. The lighting unit is configured to emit ultraviolet light having a first wavelength to the web, the web including a fluorescing agent configured to emit light having a second wavelength upon excitation by the ultraviolet light. The image capture device is configured to capture one or more images of the light having the second wavelength after the light has passed through the filter. The processing unit is configured to determine whether the web includes a defect based on the one or more images.

Abstract: A system and method for on-planter seed treatments is disclosed. The planter includes a seed meter, a seed drop tube, a seed, a seed-applied substance receptacle, and a seed-applied substance applicator having a discharge path. A seed-applied substance is loaded in the seed-applied substance receptacle. The seed-applied substance is supplied to the seed-applied substance applicator. The seed-applied substance is discharged from the seed-applied substance applicator into the discharge path during planting. The seed from the seed drop tube is combined with the seed-applied substance from the seed-applied substance applicator within the discharge path for prescriptively treating the seed with the seed applied substance. The seed having on it the seed applied substance is then planted.

Abstract: An improved method for prescriptive seed treatment is provided. A location can be calculated where a combination of seed and one or more types and/or amounts of seed-applied substances will be planted. The combination is selected, based at least in part, on one or more conditions. The combination is generated prior to being planted. The method can further include selecting a type of seed and/or a type and/or amount of the one or more seed-applied substances to be applied. One or more applicators can apply the seed-applied substance(s) to the seed within a seed flow path during operation. A plurality of seed receptacles can contain different combinations of seed and/or seed-applied substances generated prior to being placed into the receptacles. The method could further include selecting a seed receptacle containing a selected combination, and delivering the selected combination from the selected seed receptacle to be planted by the planter.

Abstract: A method and system for the flexible sizing of behavior containers on a reconfigurable computing resource through the use of hierarchically nested as well as joinable and separable containers is provided.

Abstract: A system for managing one or more service level agreements associated with a switched metro Ethernet network is disclosed and manages one or more service level agreements associated with a switched metro Ethernet network. The system also includes a service level agreement (SLA) management reporting system (MRS) and a performance engine (PE) data filter coupled to the SLA-MRS. Further, the system includes one or more network elements connected to the PE data filter, wherein the SLA-MRS is configured to receive performance data from the PE data filter and at least partially based on the performance data validate one or more customer claims regarding an SLA violation.

Abstract: A system for the organization of a networking event provides the electronic management of participant data and assignment of the participants into subgroups deemed most efficacious to achieve the purposes of the networking event. In certain embodiments the entire process for gathering of participant data and subgrouping of the participants may be done in a virtual environment. Certain embodiments may provide for additional management details of the networking event such as physical aspects including name tags, printed schedules and lists of subgroupings or participants, etc., as well as other aspects such as facilitating further contacts between participants, etc.

Abstract: A system and method of incrementally coupling a high level language into an object file is disclosed. A source file and an object file are organized into logical blocks. An intermediate file, termed an .mdt file, is generated and stores information about the logical blocks in both the source file and the object file and their relationship to each other. Boundaries are established in the source program to define logical blocks within it, each block being termed a function. Each function is further divided into a global region and a local region. If a change has been made in a particular local region in the source file, only that region is recompiled. The recompiled portion of the .obj file is patched into the .obj file to replace the previous material corresponding to that region. Significant time savings is realized by incrementally compiling the source program because only those local regions which have been changed are recompiled and they are patched into the existing .obj file.
