  • Patent number: 11775292
    Abstract: A partially completed user experience design can be completed by selecting a previous codified user experience design, and determining portions of a Finite State Machine of the previous codified user experience design that should be added to a FSM of the partially completed user experience design. This enables use of a previous codified user experience designs to complete the FSM of a partially completed user experience design. Previously codified user experience designs can also be used as the basis for creation of new user experience designs. A previously codified user experience design is selected, and newly created portions of the FSM that are to be added to the FSM of the previously codified user experience design are added to the FSM of the previously codified user experience design. In both instances, components and patterns of the user experience design are automatically substituted to ensure uniformity within the created design.

  • Patent number: 11768479
    Abstract: Secure data transmission between an input device and both industrial controllers in a high-availability system utilizes a secure connection established between the primary industrial controller and the input device. Data required to establish the secure connection is stored on the primary controller as part of the connection data corresponding to the secure connection. The input device transmits data to the primary controller over the secure connection according to the desired level of security. The primary controller transmits the connection data defining the secure connection to the secondary controller. If a failure occurs in the primary controller, the secondary controller establishes a connection to the input device using the connection data for the secure connection, such that the secondary controller may assume responsibility for the controller end of the secure connection. The primary controller transmits the input signals to the secondary controller via the dedicated connection between controllers.

  • Patent number: 11768677
    Abstract: A method for software application optimization using natural language-based queries. The method includes obtaining a user-provided query. The user-provided query includes a constraint to be used for an identification of an application element that matches the constraint, from a set of application elements of a software application. The user-provided query is a string that includes a human language sentence. The method further includes deriving a formalized query from the user-provided query by translating the user-provided query into a syntactic construct of segmented sentence elements and obtaining the application element that matches the constraint. Obtaining the application element that matches the constraint includes deriving a pattern representation of the user-provided query from the formalized query and identifying the application element that matches the pattern representation of the user-provided query from the plurality of application elements.
