Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products sustain a fleet of configuration-controlled assets. The method involves integrating a plurality of previously separate systems with reusable business transactions associated with managing a fleet of vehicles. The method also involves receiving operational data associated with a vehicle of the fleet, integrating the operational data per customer requirements, packaging and distributing the operational data to the plurality of systems, and installing and distributing the operational data to one or more applications of the plurality of systems utilizing reusable business transactions. The system utilizes a plurality of applications and a plurality of logical subsystems, which are connected to each other through gateways. The logical subsystems use a common format defined by a set of messages. However, the applications can use a plurality of different formats.

Abstract: A three-dimensional (3-D) virtual display system for displaying a flicker-free 3-D virtual image to each of N viewers randomly dispersed about a horizontally disposed viewing screen, where N is an integer greater than 1, includes a laser projector for generating N.times.M image pairs responsive to a video signal comprising the N.times.M image pairs, N transmitters associated with respective ones of the N viewers, each of the N transmitters generating a unique coded pulse, a detector for determining the position of each of the N viewers relative to the viewing screen responsive to the respective unique coded pulse and for generating respective position data, a graphics processor for generating the video signal responsive to the position data, and N selectors associated with the N viewers for selecting the M image pairs out of the N.times.M image pairs allocated to each of the N viewers, respectively. The projector includes an electron-beam-pumped semiconductor laser (EBSL) screen, e.g.
