  • Patent number: 11687493
    Abstract: A digital technology transfer system transforms technology transfer documents to a set of digitized manufacturing procedures and operations documentation. The system can transform a technology transfer document to a hierarchical structured model representing a package, or product to be manufactured, and the process for manufacturing the product. The resulting package model can be integrated into a larger model representing an ecosystem of manufacturing entities and plant facilities by assigning steps of the manufacturing process to one or more selected production lines. The system allows participants in the ecosystem to browse the hierarchical model to view information about the manufacturing entities, their plant facilities, and the packages assigned to the respective facilities. The system offers filtered role-specific views of the technology transfer documents, their approval statuses, and their plant assignments.

  • Patent number: 11611546
    Abstract: When a client certificate is required to connect to a client according to a predetermined communication protocol, a server receives a connection request that is a message associated with specific information from the client in a handshake for connection with the client. The server makes a client judgement as to whether or not a cache hit occurs, which is to find a summary client certificate in a cache area using the specific information associated with the connection request. When the result of the client judgement is true, the server returns to the client a connection response including hit information indicating that a cache hit occurs.

  • Patent number: 11606411
    Abstract: Response delay associated with a state-based client-server application can be reduced with utilization of an application state server-side cache. A server caches data for a set of one or more possible states of a client-server application that may follow a current state of the application. The server rapidly responds to a client request with data that corresponds to an appropriate new state of the application in accordance with the application state server-side cache. The server determines that the application will transition to the appropriate new state from the current state of the application with the application state server-side cache based, at least in part, on an operation indicated by the client request.

  • Patent number: 11606440
    Abstract: The disclosure herein describes using a monitoring tool and a management tool from a cloud native system to monitor and manage an application executing on a legacy system. Network addresses of services running in the application on the legacy systems are discovered. Based on the discovered addresses, a probe is configured for execution on the legacy system by a monitoring tool deployed on the legacy system to obtain metrics data associated with the services running on the legacy system, the metrics data representing execution loads of the application. A management tool deployed on the cloud native system receives the obtained metrics data. The management tool compares the metrics data to one or more performance thresholds associated with the application. Based on the comparison, the management tool adjusts a quantity of instances of the application running on the cloud native system, enabling the cloud native system to share the execution loads.
