Abstract: An infeed system of a chipper or grinder includes a feed roller, a motor for rotating the roller, a hydraulic cylinder for adjusting an amount of crush force applied by the roller, a sensor, and a controller in data communication with the sensor and the cylinder. In operation, the controller determines whether the material is being effectively moved to the processing portion and whether the amount of crush force is at a maximum or lowest setting. The controller causes the cylinder to: (a) decrease the amount of crush force when the material is being effectively moved to the processing portion and the amount of crush force applied is not at the lowest setting; and (b) increase the amount of crush force when the material is not being effectively moved to the processing portion and the amount of crush force is not at the maximum setting.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided that syndicate enterprise application system (EAS) data. A method includes creating a feed for an EAS module, generating a news item for the feed, and publishing the news item on the feed. Accordingly, employees in an organization are able to easily become aware of information about their organization by tightly coupling a syndication system to human resources management. The sharing of information throughout the organization creates a more inclusive and cohesive working environment. In one embodiment, the EAS data is enterprise resource planning (ERP) data.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein for managing task requests. An end-user device include one or several possible implementation for managing task requests. Specifically, the end-user device comprises a processing device and a memory device, which is configured to store a task request managing program. The processing device is configured to execute the task request managing program. The processing device is configured to analyze a string of characters of a natural language request from a user to extract a requested task and a requested object. The processing device is further configured to check whether the user is permitted to initiate the requested task on the requested object. In addition, the processing device is configured to perform the requested task on the requested object when it is determined that the user is permitted to initiate the requested task on the requested object.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided that combine private contact information and Enterprise Application System (“EAS”) data in a directory. An embodiment includes receiving private contact information regarding a first employee from a second employee, storing the private contact information regarding the first employee on an EAS server, and displaying the private contact information to the second employee upon request, wherein the private contact information is viewable only to the second employee.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and associated software for detecting presence are described with respect to a number of embodiments of the present disclosure. More particularly, presence information can be displayed on a floor plan, according to the teachings herein. In one implementation, a method for monitoring the presence of a person is described in which the name of a person of interest is received from a requestor. The requestor and the person of interest are both associated with an organization. The method also includes retrieving information regarding a first work area associated with the person of interest and reproducing a section of a floor plan containing at least the first work area. Furthermore, the method includes sending the section of the floor plan to the requestor. The method also includes retrieving information regarding the person of interest associated with the first work area. A name field, which includes the name and the presence status of the person of interest, is sent to the requestor.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided that create a relationship map using enterprise application system (EAS) data. Relationship data is automatically collected from EAS modules. The EAS modules may be enterprise resource planning (ERP) modules. A relationship map is then generated from the collected relationship data. Thus, a representation of formal and informal working relationships among employees in an organization is built, where such relationship data was previously too onerous to capture manually. Further, this representation may be visually illustrated to a user, enabling the user to navigate among the relationships of their fellow coworkers.
