Abstract: A physical event to be modeled is selected. A profile for the physical event is generated based on an event type of the physical event. Data is obtained from a plurality of data sources, wherein the obtained data comprises data relevant to the physical event that is collected by the plurality of data sources, and further wherein at least a portion of the obtained data comprises one or more of spatial and temporal references associated with the collection of the data. A digital representation of the physical event is generated based on at least a portion of the obtained data and the generated profile. The digital representation is utilized to analyze one or more other physical events associated with the modeled physical event.

Abstract: There is disclosed herein examples of system and procedure for assigning state-of-charge profiles to vehicles to extend battery lives of batteries of the vehicles. Determining an optimal state-of-charge profile for the vehicle may take into account battery degradation of the battery of the vehicle and/or characteristics of an operational assignment to which the vehicle is being assigned. The state-of-charge profiles assigned to the vehicles may extend the battery life of the battery of the vehicle and reduce battery replacements of the battery.

Abstract: A device operatively couples a tractor ABS controller with TABS controllers in units towed by the tractor. A PLC interface circuit of the device communicates messages received from a PLC network of the towed units to a CAN network of the tractor via a CAN interface circuit. The device may also rebroadcast messages received from the PLC network back onto the PLC network, and may also wirelessly broadcast messages received from the PLC network back onto a wireless network. The device receives messages from the towed units at a message rate, determines a quantity of towed units from the message rate, and communicates the determined quantity of towed units on the CAN network of the tractor. The device receives messages indicating towed unit identification (ID) information, determines a quantity of towed units from the towed unit ID information, and communicates the determined quantity of towed units on the CAN network.
Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein are related to the deauthorization of a private key associated with a decentralized identifier. While a user of a computing system is authenticated as a decentralized identifier, the system detects user input, and determines based on that user input that the private key associated with the decentralized identity is to be revoked. In response to this determination, the private key is deauthorized so that the private key cannot be used to perform actions for the decentralized identity at least until the private key is restored.

Abstract: A data mining technique is used to find large frequently-occurring source code patterns from methods/APIs that can be used in code development. Simplified trees that represent the syntactic structure and type and method usage of a source code fragment, such as a method, are mined to find closed and maximal frequent subtrees which represent the largest frequently-occurring source code patterns or idioms associated with a particular type and method usage. These idioms are then used in an idiom web service and/or a code completion system to assist users in the development of source code programs.
