Abstract: A method includes receiving call records from a control plane, each call record including a cell list identifying the server cell for the UE call session at the time the call record was generated and an ordered set of neighbor cells, ordered based on a characteristic of signals from the neighbor cells. Call records having truth data are selected, wherein the truth data includes geolocation (GL) data reported to be a GL associated with the call record. GL data of the selected call records is stored in association with the cell list for the selected call records. A centroid is determined as a function of the GL data associated with each of the selected call records that includes the associated cell list. The centroids are stored in association with the corresponding cell list, and can be retrieved as a prediction for a GL based on submission of a cell list.

Abstract: The method has the collection of data from a user to apply for licensing cost reimbursement for a software application. The method processes payments from the user per service terms.

Abstract: An auto-engageable coupling is disclosed for use in a pumping system that includes an electric motor and a pump driven by the electric motor. The auto-engageable coupling permits the transfer of torque from the motor to the pump, but prevents the pump from applying torque to the motor. In some embodiments, the auto-engageable coupling includes a drive plate connected to a motor shaft and a reaction plate connected to an output shaft. The drive plate and reaction plate are only coupled together to transmit torque from the motor to the pump when the motor is activated and rotating in a first, intended direction. When the motor is not activated and the pump is forced to rotate in a first direction, the drive plate and the reaction plate are disengaged to prevent the delivery of torque from the pump to the motor.
