Patent number: 10083204Abstract: An authoring platform for authoring a client workflow includes an arrangement of shapes representing steps and connections representing relationships between the steps. Online content retrieved from an online resource may be associated with steps of the client workflow. An authoring service receives the client workflow from the client interface via a network and directs a graph database to store a database workflow corresponding to the client workflow. A search platform is provided for creating and searching workflows using a tag database taxonomy. An author creates a workflow wherein a tag is linked to a workflow item. The workflow is stored as a database workflow and a node in the database workflow representing the workflow item is linked to a node in the database taxonomy representing the tag. Multiple workflows are created in a similar manner to link the workflows to the database taxonomy to provide efficient searching of the workflows.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2016Date of Patent: September 25, 2018Assignee: AUTODESK, INC.Inventors: Douglas Look, Gonzalo Rubio, Arindam Ganguly, John Wallace, Adam Arnold

Publication number: 20180251389Abstract: A tank is disclosed as having a tub therein that divides the volume of the tank into an anoxic chamber inside the tub and an equalization chamber outside of the tub. The anoxic chamber anoxically treats wastewater while the equalization chamber equalizes fluctuations in wastewater influent as well as provides a holding space for wastewater if power to the tank is cut off. The tank can be part of a system for treating wastewater, such as one with an anaerobic tank having an anaerobic chamber for anaerobically treating wastewater, an aerobic/filtration tank having a filtration sub-tank therein that divides the volume of the tank into a filtration chamber inside the sub-tank and an aerobic chamber outside of the sub-tank. The aerobic chamber can aerobically treat wastewater while the filtration chamber has a membrane unit for filtering wastewater.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 10, 2017Publication date: September 6, 2018Inventors: John Merrin, Travis Genshock, Brendan Matheny, Paul Wadham, Adam Arnold

Publication number: 20180009691Abstract: A wastewater recycling system includes a biological reactor having anaerobic, anoxic, and aerobic chambers. A lift station including a pump is operatively connected to the biological reactor. The lift station receives biologically treated liquid from the biological reactor and pumps the liquid from the lift station. A filtration subsystem is operatively connected to the lift station. The filtration subsystem receives and filters the liquid pumped by the lift station. The filtration subsystem includes a salt-rejecting membrane filter comprising a concentrate recirculation conduit operatively connected to recirculate salt-rejecting membrane filter concentrate to a point along the wastewater recycling system upstream of the salt-rejecting membrane filter, thereby forming a salt concentration loop between said point along the wastewater recycling system and the salt-rejecting membrane filter.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2017Publication date: January 11, 2018Inventors: William C.

Patent number: 9184848Abstract: A repeater amplifier assembly that includes at least two chassis containing optics and electronics. The chassis are connected with a size-adjustment mechanism that can adjust a size of the repeater amplifier assembly by reversibly adjusting the positions of the chassis with respect to each other. To insert the repeater amplifier assembly into a repeater housing, the repeater amplifier assembly is accessed in a contracted position. The amplifier is inserted into the housing, and then a control of the size adjustment mechanism is actuated to urge the chassis outwards until the chassis push against the repeater housing. To remove the repeater amplifier assembly from the repeater housing, the control is actuated to cause the size adjustment mechanism to pull the chassis inwards with respect to each other until the chassis no longer push against the repeater housing. The repeater amplifier assembly may then be freely removed from the repeater housing.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 2015Date of Patent: November 10, 2015Assignee: Xtera Communications, Inc.Inventors: Kevin Willoughby, John Durban, Adam Arnold
